This is my first time reading this so bear with me.

The Mass Relay's getting destroyed is a dumb idea. The whole beauty of Mass Effect is how all of the different species found this technology which allowed them to find each other..

Now they will all be limited by the vast distance of the galaxy so the whole Mass Effect world is completely pointless and boring.

So, pretty much Mass Effect 4 will either be a prequel or boring as hell with no space travel. Am I on the right path?

maybe a MMO,end of story

They just might have just ruined their franchise with this. Surely their writers are talented enough to come up with better. Where will the continuity come from? What ending is cannon now? Will any further addition to the franchise be set in the past now?

All I really would like is for the Relays to remain intact.
Yes, I would also like for Shepard to be alive as well as the crew remained without, but it feels right. After they've been so much, their is such a price with the war of the Reapers. At least the Earth remained intact, but merging just sounds absolutely retarded, after everything they've fought for, even if it is the only way to control them.

Also, shouldn't destroying the relays also completely obliterrate solar systems, which is basically just killing nearly everyone in the galaxy itself?

I actually like those endings.

I completely agree with you.

+1.

Everyone is all like "oooh we NEEDS OUR MASS RELAYS!!" 

So, the Galaxy has to go back to before they discovered Reaper tech, i think that is more realistic then 'happily ever after."

traveling the vast distances of space has always been a problem with Sci-fi, and they inevitably rely on a crutch to explain how its possible: "Warp" "Hyper Drive" "Mass relays," etc etc. Its refreshing to see BW toss that crutch away and basically tell us "deal with it." 

Also...sometihng tells me BioWare has a plan. What it is, i have no clue, but im willing to bet they will have something worked out for future games. Heck, might even appear as a DLC for THIS game. 

[WeWant]

Just one thing. I saw someone saying that multiplayer is essential in order to get the "best" ending. How true is that?

The endings make even playing ME1 ad 2 pointless.

Exactly.

What's the point to go through all that effort to let your entire team survive in ME2? Or doing all the sidequests in ME1?

All I hear is hyperbole. According to the spoilers and everything I've seen, on a good playthrough, you still get:

- the Council finally accepting that the Reapers have shown up
- Council surviving Udina's attempted coup with Cerberus (with Thane sacrificing himself to save them)
- almost all of the ME2 crew not liquified will still be alive and on Earth (Kelly, Gardner, Donnelly, etc.)
- the Quarians and Geth finally make peace (that is...until you destroy the Geth via the relay overload, LOL)
- Shepard will likely live (via the stinger clip of him breathing as they zoom in on his chestplate)
- Mordin cures the genophage (at the cost of his own life), saving the Krogans and cementing an alliance between them and the Salarians
- Jack, Miranda, Samara and Jacob (at least), according to the script, all survive their missions

I don't consider that to be pointless. The galaxy ends in a better state than it did in the last cycle, and (near-extinction of Asari or Turians aside) it will continue to thrive.

If you knew your cherished, hard won character has no hope of a happy future - would you then wish to forget it?

I don't see how it could be possible that all synthethic life could be *magically* wiped out either. I guess I'll find out.

Sounds like a massive EMP of sorts, related to the mass relays.

You know, a massive EMP would make sense, except that something on that scale would also fry every living thing's brain. If Bioware didn't think of that... There goes ME's (dubious) SF credentials!

This is Bioware saying they're done making Mass Effect. When 6 of the 7 endings involve the main character being dead and the only means of traveling throughout space is gone forever? Yeah, the series is over. I have no idea why a company would ever decide to stop making something that's making them a ton of money (stupid?), but Mass Effect is done.

Shepard's arc is done.

You don't throw away something that makes money, the writers are just really really bad..or they plan on redeeming it with BETTER endings ala Fallout 3 but as DLC that you have to pay for.

Either way more Mass Effect is on the way.

In the destroy ending, civilization is forced to advance on its own terms rather than being given eezo and Relay technology, which it arguably wasn't ready for - technology stagnated and galactic society was spread incredibly thinly despite covering a lot of the galaxy. Without the Relays or FTL, society as it was in the ME universe will crumble back to 21st century levels (in human terms). With no Mass Effect based technology, FTL is probably going to be impossible forever, so each species will have its own little segment of the galaxy.

In control, FTL capability still exists, so trade and travel between systems is still viable, if much slower. Travel between clusters is impossible for the time being, but given that the Reapers are still out there and will be brought back if any civilization creates an AI which is powerful enough to destroy them, all species are going to try to advance their technology to be able to fight the Reapers when they inevitably return. Of course, this will probably make them hostile to each other as well.

Merge, despite essentially relying on magic, gives the greatest hope for the future. FTL speed still exists, organics can now live longer and are more intelligent, and synthetics (and, it seems, the Reapers) are truly alive. Synthetics and organics are now essentially the same, and the technological advances they'll be able to create together will be incredible, especially if its true the Reapers become peaceful in this ending. While it will take decades, maybe centuries, to create a truly galactic civilization again, there will be peace.

Or the leaked script was just a big troll. I hope so at least...

It's possible... what is the source of this "leak"?

The demo contained an outline of the whole ME3 story.

Two leaked scripts, early release artbook, space edition QnA, early delivery strategy guide..

That isn't a good enough argument.
