Just one thing needed to be changed: make the normandy crash on earth.

I don't know who had the idea to make it crash in some backwater planet .... drama for the sake of drama isn't good writing, it's cheap. 

Most people are pissed about that.. normandy being stranded from everyone where forever alones and inbreeding will surely happen.. why? just why?

Shep dying? Fine by me as long it is a choice. Shep living? Fine as well. Play your game however you want, but for those who want their shep to live (me included) being away from everyone and those you love are far worse. 

I can handle the losses, billion people, species.. but not cheap drama. 

Anyone agree?

PS: sorry for any mistakes, english is not my first language.

For the most part, yes, I do agree.

I do have a little tiff with the mass relays being destroyed as well, but I'd let that slide, as it seems to be tied in with the reapers being defeated and I'll cave to that.

I think the relays being blowed up and your chirality opposite friends being hosed are far bigger than shep surviving.

You know, the funny part of the story is that the same thing ALREADY HAPPENED in ME2, with your crew abducted by collectors.

Bioware knew how to handle it then. How come they just completely forgot what they successfully did?

Thank you guys :D Let Bioware hear us then

I think crashing on earth would be a viavle option for Tali and Garrus as well, I'm sure they can survive there (not so much in a deserted planet with no tech :P)

Seriously. That's ALL it would have taken.

[Well, that and the lack of other endings. But I digress.]

Totally agree, mass effect has always been about a multiplicity of choices - to see it funneled into a single, sadistic outcome for the crew of the Normandy is sad. Doomed to a lingering death on an distant rock... terrible.

What i dont understand is why the normandy went through a relay in the first place. Would they not have been perfectly safe parked somewhere on Earth? Why the hell is the ship over there in the first place. I'm ok with the relays being destroyed because it's a theme that's been thrown around since ME 1, wih the reapers bragging about how our reliance on their tech is what makes us weak. But the whole normandy situation is what really sets me off.

Another thing the endings needed is a third-person narrative, detailing the effect sof your 3 game choices on the various civilizations post-relay destruction. But this may be addressed in in-game scenes and dialogue.

I agree with the bold part x1000. These kinds of stunts are why I read spoilers. I would have ragequit so hard if I had experienced that impotence first-hand. Now -- thank goodness -- I can avoid it, and go about my life without some "artistic" conclusion and its defenders poopooing me for wanting just a little human happiness at the end of 100+ hours of gameplay.

Why is there no bitersweet ending where Shepard and the crew manage to stay together somehow in the midst of galactic devastation? That's the one and only sliver of happiness I don't want to be forced to sacrifice in every single ending -- Shepard and the crew and, possibly, LI stay together. Is it too much to ask that 1 out of 7 endings gives me that? Yes? Then I'll keep my $60, tyvm.

I agree with you. In any real world forcing one from their family and friends are horrific at best and downright sadastic at worst. We tried that here in the real world with Native American children taken from their homes resulting in blowing up the family to this day. Massive suicide, alcoholism, violence abount as a result of forced removed of native children to "educate" them like whites.

Any reader of history knows full well the horror of such a sentence - I know I get up on reserves.

I have to seriously ask... WHAT THE HELL IS THE POINT of stranding the Normandy and crew? What POSSIBLE PLOT SERVICE DOES IT PROVIDE??

End rant.

Manipulation of emotions to make people feel things so they think it's a good game.

Not only are there not enough people on the normandy to actually start a colony, but there arent even half as many females needed to pair off even half the crew. Crashing on Earth still has the "Starting anew". Earth has been devastated, the relays are gone. Normandy and co, and what remains of humanity must rise from the ashes like a phoenix and spread amongst the stars the old fashioned way with FTL, forging their own destiny instead of relying on reaper tech.

That's a real Bittersweet ending. Billions dead, possibly shepard too, and the relays are gone. But at the end, we see through the eyes of the normandy crew a glimmer of hope as they look across the ruins on Earth, watching humans and other races stranded on Earth helping eachother out of the ruins and beginning to rebuild.

I am having serious issues at comprehending the current ending....

are they trying to pull off an End of Evangelion? That so totally fits the mood of the mass effect franchise:?

When you put it like that!

That would have been a Poignant and fitting end to the trilogy. What a missed opportunity.

Why, for the love of God, does "inbreeding" always come up...?
