I
think I found a way to cut out the scene with the kid and the game would
finish with the console and Illusive Man. I removed the following files
from the Mass Effect 3BIOGameCookedPCConsole folder:

Bio_End002_400Guardian.pcc (Guardian or Catalyst is the kid)
Bio_End002_400Guardian_LOC_INT.pcc
Bio_End002_500Choice.pcc (He presents you with the choices)
Bio_End002_510Red.pcc (Destroy)
Bio_End002_520Blue.pcc (Control)
Bio_End002_530Green.pcc (Synthesis)
Bio_End002_600Epilogue.pcc (special ending?)
Bio_End002_600Epilogue_LOC_INT.pcc

From
there, you can create your own ending and insert it into the game. Not
sure what you're supposed to name it though.


That seems like a waste of time just to lie to yourself


Create? I made one that skips that entire awful ending they supplied us. I hated the ending in-game so much, that I did this to cope with it.

Mass Effect 3 Alternate Ending

A fan-made ending I created to replace the one Bioware used to taint an
otherwise epic game. Hopefully others enjoy this as much as I do! I did
the best with what resources I could use to make it.

I imagined this taking place right after Shepard and Anderson were sitting down
looking at Earth, replacing the rest of the game after it. Still shows
reapers getting defeated (relays and citadel intact), some squad talk,
and something of a conclusion. Also means the galaxy is not screwed
nearly as bad as it was in the end of the original game.

@rickf7666: That's exactly how I feel.... I finished ME3 two hours ago now.... The first thing I did on completing ME 1 & 2 was reload the game, and play them again..... I find... despite wanting to try different choices (with the Geth and Quarians for example).... That I have no immediate inclination to reload the game.

I don't want to struggle and fight through reapers and cannibals and husks, developing friendships and romance and building an army.... just for a basic multiple choice ending, that doesn't even include true multiple choices. They are, essentially, all the same....

It's heartbreaking, because the game was amazing, three or four times, the emotional development of certain scenes and characters had me close to tears, or laughing aloud etc... and... BioWare managed to destroy all the hard work they put into getting that response, in the final few minutes.

*sighes* I just feel.... really let down... :-/

@Flammenpanzer: Just commented on your video, but thought I'd say something here too. THAT ending, is utterly perfect. I love it.
It makes ME3's ending even worse though, knowing that it was that simple for Bioware to have finished the game well.... and they simply didn't. That makes it all the more heartbreaking. If you don't mind, I don't think I'll ever play past the Shepard/Anderson talk again, I'll just close the game, and play your vid.

*hugs* Thanks again.

I really agree with you. Bioware has made some masterpieces, games proving that it's not just a video game but a work of art. Throughout Mass Effect 3 I felt like I was fighting to restore the galaxy.

When I preloaded the game, I got too curious and impatient for March 6th and started going through the files and video clips to see what would happen. I saw these endings and was very dismayed. But I played anyway, did EVERY side quest, got over 7000 assests and did everything Paragon in the hope I'd get a better ending. Alas, it didn't turn out that way.

I don't quite get it, was Bioware rushed by EA in the last minute? I've purchased just about every game released by Bioware, I even purchased the books, and not enen DAII made me feel as betrayed. I feel speechless and I need to vent at the same time... Why couldn't shepard be allowed to settle down, just like in the cut audio file with Anderson (WHY cut that out???!!). This isn't a happy ending, this isn't an open ended finish to an open ended game. This, I don't know what this is, but I feel let down and deeply dissapointed.

@Denore: Cut audio file? I'm tempted to do some digging myself now, but I'm afraid it'll just make me angrier/more upset with BW

It's stupid I feel like I need a really big hug, and a computer game trilogy this amazing shouldn't end by making me feel like I've been spat on.

I have just finshed writing quick fixes to the endings and also added two more endings, in the hope that it would make me feel better. It hasn't! Maybe I just need to expand the fixes, add dialogue, turn them into my own personal canon for me to feel better. Anyone interested in what I've written?

I liked it. I left a post with some comments. I'll post it here because I'd love to get your thoughts:

Wow very nice. Was the initial music in the game? Music is really the only way to get me to emote and the music you played with the squad mate and battle scenes got to me. My only criticism would be the ripping of Tali's comments to her father from ME2. And constructive criticism, don't keep going back to that star the illusive man stares at. It's there too long. I'd keep it in the background.

Also, when does Tali make the comment about being sad Shepard died? Is that when she gets drunk? For me that came after Miranda on Horizon so the conversation was about her father. Also I had Tali romanced so that might matter. It just seems too far removed from the beginning of ME2.

You are very welcome. I was so unhappy with how the game went post-Shep/Anderson...that this is exactly what I plan to do on my next playthrough too.

Thanks everyone for the comments!

Initial music is somewhere in the game, I cannot remember where though.
I agree with the star thing, that is what I dislike about it the most. To hit the right music notes I needed to fill some space, and I did not have the footage I wanted to use to replace it. I'll eventually fix that :) After watching the uploaded version, some of the opacity did not work quite right :(

Tali never makes that comment, that entire sentance is spliced together...you can notice it if you really pay attention. The fact that you did not notice makes me happy! It means I did a decent job keeping the pace of the words.

Personally I think I fell in the final charge and that the ending was Harbinger in Commander Shepard mind..
The slomo dream like sequence after you get up and how nothing seems to fit.. I think the boy was Harbinger and the endings will determine Commander Shepard's fate... It will be in another game that we find out what the crucible catalyst really does.

We could end up fighting Commander Shepard in a later game as a result of our ending choice.

@Abram: I think I could forgive the ending a hell of a lot easier, or at least swallow it better, if there was another game in the pipeline. Particularly another Shepard game.... but Mass Effect is a trilogy. It was always going to be a trilogy, and was designed as a trilogy.

Which means, I can make absolutely no sense of any of the endings....

*sighs*... and I was so looking forward to working my way through the citadel, fighting to find out where the arm controls were and blasting the reapers to kingdom come before findning out who had survived, who hadn't, how many troops made it through, were any species extinct now that the refugee's on the citadel had been dealt with... my squad members charging the beam with me? I had my LI by my side... did he make it? did he survive? were we going to have a single last heartfelt moment before he drew his last breath?

No. Bioware stole from me all those moments.... they could have added another good hours game play onto the end of that game, and come out better for it.

An RTS during the Reaper war would be quite cool, in my opinion. I hope some mod team out there does that.

There won't be any more games with Shepard; however, I think you can pretty much count on there being more games in this universe. They've all but come out and said it.

They have already said there will be no more "Shepard".
I think actual closure for Shepard's story will come in another game..

I don't think they will be giving up on the Mass Effect universe. I think this just sets the stage for the next trilogy. It will be a new PC that makes the charge.

If shep survives he may really survive and you may get that closure. You could also find yourself fighting him... Or finding a body.

so ive read alot about how people would like a dlc that would change the ending, and i think i have thought of a dlc that would work, provided you get the ending where shepard lives(breathing cutscene), and i know it would require the destruction ending which may upset some people, but still this is the only idea i have for changing end of the game without completely altering what bioware has already done, so here it is: they title it some cliche like mass effect: recovery or something like that and shepard is found by alliance or his LI or his(her) crew or something like that, shepard then is tasked with helping restore the galatic races to its former glory, the dlc would be based on a series of missions in which a new means of travel across the galaxy is devised/ discoverd, or even reconstruction of mass relays, which would also allow shepard to complete side quest he(she) skipped before the final mission that were not reaper invasion related. then bam! there is a happily ever after disney cliche ending where shepard is reunited with his(her) LI and they live happily ever after, and allows for the introduction of even more new dlc's. i dont even know how bioware is supposed to introduce new dlc if you cant continue to play after the final attack, without the game just sending you back to right before the attack on the cerberus base attack.

thoughts? feelings? opinions?

Mod ME3 to an RTS game?
None of the ME games are modding friendly. Probably because of potential impact against DLC sales.

Can't think of any currently active RTS game mod communities that would invest the needed time and effort to make ME mod. Certainly haven't heard of any.

Besides that, they do run the risk of legal action being taken against them by EA.
Microsoft took legal action against a team that were making a Halo mod for an RTS game (think it might have been a mod for C&C Generals) to stop development on it, before they'd released Halo Wars.

The potential for a Mass Effect based RTS will no doubt depend on the success of ME3, and the success of the upcoming C&C Generals 2 from the Bioware: Victory studio.

Yeah. At least DA2 gave SOME information about what happened afterwards with the characters and the world.

This ending being the end of Shepard's story would be like The Warden having to die at the end of DA:O. Just because you're not making any more games about them doesn't mean you have to remove them from the entire universe!

(Also, Hawke would have murder-knifed that Catalyst instead of being a submissive ****. Just saying.)

Incorrect. ME is the last of Shepard's saga.

An ending I thought made more sense (from another board) would have had to do with Indoctrination.

To take my spin: the Reapers, and the nations within them, are all Indoctrinated and thus held to the party line of going after organics every 50K years.

If the Crucible can jam the Indoctrination signal, then the Reapers who were forcefully created - which is most of them - are going to wake up, be pretty pissed off at having been turned into grey goo, and go after the original Reaper (Harbinger?) Cue Reaper civil war, with the "good" Reapers winning and then taking off to liberate/terminate their brethren.

I really don't know how they can make more without the Mass Relays destroyed. Also I am very curious with a very open ending they left when they said that the reapers are the servants not the masters and who created them in the begining. I defiantly agree with everyone that they should have made a better ending the ending I would have preffered is that the Crucible Targeted the Reaper Cores. We go in destory the reapers we go home, we party.

Another thing that would have been good is where they tell you what happens afterwards.
