What the hell is wrong with some of you folks? Weeping? Losing sleep? Wow. It's just a game!
Eh, not weeping or losing some sleep, but this game is like climbing a pile of spectacular awesome to find Jar Jar Binks at the top.
lol Ah, that is awesome.
I haven't cried over this. Not yet at least. I am not losing sleep. A couple of nights I kept thinking about it and began to feel sick to my stomach but I could sleep. When I feel sick to my stomach or kinda shaky (happens sometimes when I get pissed off or nervous), I can't help that. It is a physcial reaction. For some people their emotions play out through their body.
And a lot of people are emotionally invested in this game and have been supporting it for years. Some people weep or lose sleep over other forms of media so why not video games too? Personally I don't judge people when they have physcial reactions like that. You can think its stupid but to make fun of them? Not okay.

The "Hardest. Day. Ever." part makes me feel like they're "fixing" the ending. It must be so frustrating to have worked so hard and long on a project only for it to come out and everyone to immediately demand it be changed.

I agree. I can`t help but feel for the developers. Looking at the game itself, its clear that they worked their asses off. Still...it doesn`t change the ending.

Look, I meant no offence, but you have to admit that it's ridiculous. And earlier I read a post about a support group for the movie Avatar? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!
I too get emotional over fictional works in interactive and non-interactive media (games and movies, respectively), because, you know, I'm human. There were many parts through the ME series that had me tearing up. But I realize that's it's just fiction and therefore, I don't invest emotionally into it. I save that for relationships and real-world situations, such as work, school, ambitions, etc. It's irrational to invest emotionally into something that doesn't affect you or your life.

Can't say I feel bad for the devs. They *chose* this. There was plenty of grief and sacrifice throughout the course of the game, and then they slap down a Star Child plot device and 3 equally wretched, horrible endings that show everything you did was meaningless? No. They *chose* this. Kind of like the Sopranos writers feeling bad at how little people appreciated their ending.The game has absolutely zero replay value, even makes replaying the earlier 2 pointless.

Emotional investment in fiction and real lfie aren't mutually exclusive. People have been using stories... epic poems, ballads, legends, up through modern fiction and media to create emotional responses. Most of the people complaining here didn't get the game for it's gameplay mechanics, but for the story. That's been Bioware's real selling point... and they took an epic, magnificent story and did a half-hearted ending set that invalidated every choice the players made for their part of the story. It's the ruined potential, not just "nobody got a happy ending" so much that players were told their choices impacted the ending, and they really didn't beyond "what color do you want your suck to be?"

You must be joking. You cared LESS about the death of your own grandmother than you did of a video game's ending?

Uwe Boll. He got to the game when the dev's stepped out to grab a sammich.
The thing is, not all of us necessarily want a 'Happy ending'. I would be happier if we realized that the crucible would destroy Earth along with the Reapers, or some similarly horrific result, as long as we got closure to the story, learned the results of our actions (everyone's no isolated for the next thousand years! LOL! Nothing you did really mattered! LOL!), and achieved some sort of goal other than destroying galactic civilization.GBGriffin wrote...
Maybe it was Buzz Aldrin? Maybe his experiences in space showed him the futility and insignificance of life, and he would only sign on to the project if no happy ending was given because humanity doesn't deserve one?

Some people don't really relate to their grandmothers I guess.
But I can relate to the sentiment, I haven't felt this emotional about anything for a VERY LONG WHILE.
