Bioware has caused a bunch of random strangers to start hugging each other. Isn't that a phenomenon that deserves the reward of a better ending?

Much hugs are needed as the wound is still fresh. Still moving through the stages of grief

*hugs to everyone* i feel your pain.
This made me feel better. Just finished the game and I'm trying to grasp what just happened. The plot holes killed the happiness inside me and butchered my want to ever play any of this series again.

That actually fits the credits perfectly, which is what's sad.

I'm not a sociologist, but I have some background in social science. I do hope that there are some sociologists, psychologists, or anthropologists out there who are following this. Rather than the troll-fests that sometimes follow other game releases, this has more the markings of collective trauma. People are losing sleep, not eating, going into depressions.
And it's more than just a sense of loss that the game series is over (people sometimes have reactions to the end of beloved TV series, for example). The ending failed to bring catharsis. Our emotional engagement was ratcheted up expertly and satisfyingly by the ME3 story. And then TWACK SNAP - the immersion breaks, we're given some kind of abstract philosophical and metagaming choice, and all we know and love in this fictional universe comes crashing down around us.
In a sense, it's a testament to the immersion Bioware created that we react to these pixels almost like we would react to the real annihilation of the Earth.
