I reject this topic.

Not all great stories have "happy endings". Great stories are fulfilling, possibly in ways that agree/disagree with the player.

Would Leonardo DiCaprio be a more memorable/fulfilled character if he didn't die at the end of Titanic?
Would Gladiator be the same if Maximus didn't die at the end?



For fu.ck sake this isn't a bloody movie. A movie dosen't allow the promise of choices for beginings and endings. Games do especially one that promised us a satisfactory ending that mattered due to our choices made in the whole trilogy of the game.

Nice Language.  Let's not make this a games vs. movies arguement.  

I'm talking about storytelling.  Storytelling transcends literature, movies, plays, ... and videogames.  It's pointless in furthering this discussion, as its all specualtion anyway.  The game has not been released.

He is righ and you're wrong.

Storytelling for video-games is much different than storytelling for a movie or a book. Why? Because a video-game is interactive.

The entire sellingpoint of Mass Effect has always been the fact that you have CHOICE in these games. You can CHOOSE how things play out. The entire purpose of Mass Effect is that we as the player are (supposed to be) capable of shaping our own story and universe through our actions and decisions.


Simply put: because this is a game with multiple endings, BioWare would easily have implemented at least one truly happy ending, so everyone can be satisfied. You will be satisfied with your bittersweet ending and the people in this thread will be satisfied with the happy ending. Give us choice, because isn't that what Mass Effect is all about? About choice?

I rest my case.

You are just pissed because you don't recieve "Disney or Sunshine and Butterflies" endings.

There's a big difference between bad and sad ending. Also humanity survives, Reapers are destroyed forever and life continues, this seems like a happy ending considering galaxy basicly had to fight agianst mech-Cthulhus (gods).

And i agree with Typhon, stop judging the game before it's released.
I don't care how many people you listened to and what they told you, you can't judge something you haven't experienced yourself.

Or you could, y'know, wait and see how effective the actual endings are in context.

Even assuming BioWare cares whether some people will be unhappy with the endings, they definitely don't care what opinions people have about spoiler info. Your complaint isn't credible.

We don't dress as Batman around here.

Look, for those people who don't support the idea, keep in mind, we're willing to pay for this 'fairytale disney ending' or whatever the hell you want to call it. We're not forcing it down your throats, so seriously, if you want to **** or debate about it, there's a topic for that.

Millions of people have been killed, and you want a 'happy' ending? For reals?

Dude I've been playing this series for years, plus I got all those bloody DLC's. I think a "happy ending" at this point is just appropriate/good manners.

This.

I can't help but wonder, what is the average age of all those people complaining about the lack of fairy tale endings.

Even with 1000 or more signed, you won't recieve this.
I never saw a company releasing a DLC just so they could please few fans because they disliked the endings.
Also i like endings not only for story but because it is truly over and they can't use Shepard anymore.

There is no happy way to end the war. A lot of people will die, no matter what you do. That's how it is.

I have to ask are you stupid ? Or do you work for EA ?

Your begging them to take your money when what you should be doing in canceling and not rewarding them for this. If you are addicted to the point where you can't do that ,while feeling this strongly something is wrong.

Honestly I don't care I got the ending I wanted. I think its moranic in a game with multiple endings that everyone cant get the same. But offering them money to fix it... just beyond belief.

Given peoples' reactions to paying for From Ashes, paying for a nice ending won't go down well with most people.

I wouldn't mind a bittersweet ending (Shepard lives on with his LI for example) - all we have atm is bitter - but I personally feel a truly happy ending isn't in keeping with what the Reapers are capable of.
