Personally I think we as gamers are spoiled with happy fairytale endings which makes everything end alright and in Biowares defense they did say they were going to end the triology.
1. Yeah, we're also spoiled with good storytelling and interesting characters, they should remove those too.
2. In Bioware's defense? You think people here are pissed because the trilogy is over? No! What part of "we're going to end trilogy" means "we're going to give a morbidly depressing half-victory that explains nothing and leaves most people completely unsatisfied"?

The ending to ME3 is like the end of Star Trek Voyager - confusing, rubbish and very short.
What we should have got is something like the end of Star Trek DS9 - sad but in a good way, and satisfying - getting to see how everyone moves on with their lives. The time was taken to show us how the characters we loved chose to live.
What we've gotten is poorly thought out rubbish like Voyager.
Now that is just creepy...two posts about Star Trek right next to each otherGet out of my head Reapers!
On another note, I happened to like the Voyager series. But I'm a sucker for strong female leads.
Wow, I didn't see your post about Enterprise til now
And I also liked Voyager a lot too, Janeway rocks. I just thought the ending of Voyager was terrible. (Horrible OT sorry)
Eh, not OT...just call it a metaphor.
Voyager Series= Mass Effect Series
Voyager Series Finale = ME3 Ending

It killed me. I uninstalled Mass Effect everything. I cried, I yelled. I mourned. Then I agonized over the details I recalled. Then I reinstalled 3, and found the devil in the details.

I have a problem. My friend has a birthday tomorrow and he asks to give him a Mass Effect 3 CE.
He does know nothing about endings. What should i do?
He played 1&2 with great love and has 22 shepards ready for launch...
I'm so sorry I don't think giving him this gift is a good thing without fair warning at the least. or have it come with a crap load of comfort foods.

Except in DA2, this approach actually worked. We knew the narrator from the start, we knew who he was, and we cared about him. And the couple of times when Cassandra caught Varric on making stuff up makes you think of all the possible times when she didn't. How much of DA2 is real and how much has been... embellished by Varric for drama?Aztlanna wrote...
We're supposed to happily buy the DLCs to add to the legend. (This reminds me of DA2.)
In ME3 it's a last-minute reveal completely out of nowhere that the whole story was narrated by... some guy we've never seen before! Who thinks it's a good idea to tell his kid a story with violence, sex, body horror and an armada of killer robots that turn whole planets into ruins. Sleep tight, kid.

But your employees didn't die they got away to a mysterious island and if you hadn't built that skyscrapper you you wouldn't have gotten to know your employees, you wouldn't have become their friends or been to their parties and you wouldn't have saved the entire city.
When you put it like that, you're just shooting yourself in the foot. I'd rather my employees die in a single blaze than be magically teleported without an explanation to an island that they literally cannot escape and will not be rescued from, that doesn't even have suitable food for half of them. Especially if one of those employees professed to love me and never wanted to lose me. It's beyond tragic, it's sadistic.

I have to admit, Shep screaming defiance in Japanese as he dies makes the ending suck 100 times less. I really hated how whipped and submissive Shep was in the original.

Sounds like something Stephen King would do.

Lord of the Rings according to ME3:
Frodo arrives on Mount Doom. He's about to cast the Ring into the fire when OMG MORGOTH shows up. Turns out he commanded Sauron to craft the Rings of Power because elves were too powerful and would have destroyed the other races otherwise. Morgoth tells Frodo he has three choices: He can become the NEW MASTER OF THE ONE RING and lose his personhood to control all the forces of darkness into not destroying mankind. He can disseminate the one ring's power into all races, making them all part elf! (somehow) or he can destroy the one ring, but the elves all die, his friends and allies all scattered to the far corners of Midgard. Oh, and in all choices gaping chasms open up between all major cities, preventing any sort of feasible travel.
Man, so much deeper than the ending we got.
Okay, too much sarcasm in this post, but I think the general scope of the comparison fits. Both series were supposed to be about hope. about unbending free will, about one person making all the difference.

I hate weak Shep. Yes, (s)he was dying, but if my Shep could survive Saren, suicide mission...why die now?! And so...powerless...
I'm just gonna go listen to In The End and cry over this ending...until they fix this bs.

1. Removing =/= less spoiled (in this context)
2. Should have made myself more clear it was a joke on how they pretty much ended the triology in a big bang with very little room continuation.

I don't get these "screw happy endings" people. Like only immature kids want happy endings? Lord of the Rings was totally great until it's sucky happy ending with people getting married, rebuilding, moving on with their lives, right? Yeah screw all that.
I'm definitely one of those "I want a happy ending" people. **** it, I want to get drinks with Garrus and adopt some baby Krogans after all that hard work!

If this were, instead, a massive thread praising an ending that left everyone feeling euphoric and incredibly happy, would you be saying the same things you are now? Or are you just chiming in because we're upset about the way things currently are?
Call it what you will. Call us whiny fanboys. Make completely irrelevant comparisons to other series' that don't have anywhere near the emotional depth, involvement, and dedication that the Mass Effect trilogy has. Mass Effect has become a lifestyle in and of itself, just like Star Wars or Star Trek. To ruin it with endings such as these, where they share more similarities than differences, and leave no questions answered and gaping holes in the plot and continuity, is inexcusable.
If you don't like our crusade to have the series end the way it deserves, that's fine. Don't like it. We aren't trying to force you to like it. But stop trying to force us to shut up. We aren't going to.

I love this so much. Best comment: "I imagine the destruction of the Mass Effect gates are actually caused by Shepard Vanguard charging from relay to relay."
