I said 'Normandy', 'Guardian', and path. Out of context it means nothing.
What if Shepard was SURVIVING....because he was singing "I Will Survive" by Ms. Gloria Gaynor?
Think about that....

I won't hold it against you, just trying to spread some good advice. Regardless, if I was in your position, I probably wouldn't listen, either.MPSai wrote...

And I was one of the people who thought it wouldn't be so bad before I saw that the game guide confirmed what others were saying. The leaked script seemed more encouraging than this.

The day I take advice from overdramatic BSN is never gonna come (and if it does, somebody please kill me). Sunshine and bunnies endings are all nice and dandy, but I don't need them to enjoy a story.
P.S.: I already know the barebones of why everyone complains, and no, that doesn't kill my motivation in the slightest.

Weren't you arguing it wasn't so bad a few days before release Cheez?
Quite the turnaround.
With all the time, money, and emotion I've invested in the series, I'm left feeling hurt, confused, and cheated.
I'm actually writing an alternate ending as we speak, one that accounts for player choice and the flavor of the series far better than what we got. I'm cutting out the parts that added nothing or just confused the narrative, and filling the holes with stuff that would provide the player, or at least myself, with proper closure and a feeling of accomplishment.
Heavy risk, but the PRIIIZE....
I know it's old, but I can't stop. Look forward to reading it. There's a poll up that someone did that offers another ending and has gotten hundreds of votes. It would be great to see yours.

Not really, living or dying can happen in ME2. Why not in ME3?
Still not a spoiler.
I'm with you. That was vague as hell. I was confused, and I beat the game this afternoon.
Some people just like to complain.

I'm making that a meme.
"I REJECT YOUR CANON AND SUBSTITUE MY OWN!"
Seriously though, as sad and pathetic as it is, Bioware huwt my feewings and not in the good way.
Good hurting of my feelings: OMG THAT IS SO SAD POOR BABIES BUT
I KNOW THINGS WILL GET BETTER NOW AND YOU ARE ALL HEROES
SO YOUR SACRIFICE WAS NOT IN VAIN AGH MY TEARS!!
Bad hurting of my feelings: THAT WAS CHEAP. AND STUPID. AND ALSO CHEAP. BUT MOSTLY STUPID. I FEEL LIKE I WASTED MY TIME AND MONEY.
Also relevant, gets players to ask big questions, doing it right: "Oh, wow. I never thought of that. Does this mean that...? Wait, so then this guy was...? Damn. That's deep. I'm going to have to re-evaluate my personal beliefs and morals now."
Doing it wrong: "What? Wait... why did that happen? Is it... are we done? That's it? What kind of pseudo-philosophical BS was that? What point were you trying to make? What's the moral here? You just dumped me and left me with nothing, god damn it! The only thing I learned from this is that you are a bunch of dicks!"
So basically Bioware tried to make a deep, thoughtful, emotional ending and failed. They failed really hard. It's sad, because it had a lot of potential and they blew it. I give them points for trying, but that can't make up for their hilarious lack of foresight and tripping at the finish line.

Not the first time a trilogy failed at the end. Return of Jedi, anyone? Or The Matrix Revolutions?
It happens.

I just finished the game not even 10 minutes ago. And the ending was rather........meh. Nowhere near as bad as people are making it out to be. But I was kinda expecting a ending like ME3 had.
I don't believe it's the nature of the bittersweet ending of the franchise that people are complaining about - in fact, per se, I have no problem with it either, as I kind of like dark, bittersweet endings to epics myself. But it's the sheer ballziness of Bioware where all they almost literally did was change the colour scheme of the explosions in the endings. Bioware couldn't even bother to do a Fallout style overlay and give a proper ending to the various choices and variables throughout 1, 2, and 3. And that's as basic as you can get - which is a still image, perhaps some music, and a god damn voice over narration. Hell, I would've settled for white text on black narrating the end and various choices I made during the trilogy, which Bioware had no problem with using for their intros of the 3 games.
But still, I guessed I "enjoyed" the ending. There was a thread a day ago where I and others were discussing the blatant similarities between ME3's endings and that of the original Deus Ex, and I in under 30 minutes was able to write a better augmented ending of what I believe Bioware was trying to go for by ripping Deus Ex off, but that thread was closed, not that it mattered anyway, as it was getting very little traffic to begin with.

It was not the ending we wanted, but at least it was better than Return of the Jedi.

What the **** are you talking about? Return of the Jedi kicked ass.
"No. I'll never turn to the dark side. I'm a Jedi, like my father before me."
"So be it... Jedi."
Admittedly, Empire was heaps better. But still.

Do yourself a favour and stop playing the game before the final mission; wait for an ending patch, because it's terrible and will make you hate Mass Effect, BioWare, and your life.
Sadly I did the edning two hours ago. I'm both confused and very disappointed. The ending makes the whole game feels meaningless.

I have it on good authority that small, adorable aliens are the most vicious. Ewoks, Nibbler, those things from Galaxy Quest.
The Battle of Endor was a success because the Empire didn't expect the native midget bears to be ninjas.
