While everything is still raging over the endings, I have to say I went away from Mass Effect 3 with that grand feeling that it met all those expectations and delivered an emotionally engaging story and amazing game all.
Just listening to that final part with Anderson and Shepard, the confrontation with the Illusive Man, and finally the Starchild...

I hope they don't change the ending (Well, maybe that stupid Normandy scene and the conclusion) . While many think that the Starchild thing at the end was kind of out of nowhere, it was a revelation that no one saw coming (OMG, that little kid who's suppose to be just a minor character... turns out to be the master of the Reaper Armada and the Citadel itself. I watched someone else play that exact scene and saw their reaction... priceless) and completely blew everyone away.

All those fantastic moments like Mordins, Anderson and Legion's deaths... Mass Effect is truely the greatest Si-Fi ever to grace any console or PC.
That final charge when Harbinger swoops in and wipes out Shepard's entire squad and left Shepard heavily wounded... that one feeling that perhaps you really have lost... I think it was Bioware's intention to make the ending seem surreal. When those voices come over the radios confirming that the assault failed and you can see Harbinger flying away... I totally expected the scene suddenly to cut back to Shepard waking up from this terrible nightmare. 
Scene is even more emotional when its Shepard's LI is simply just lying there on the ground, blood splattered.

Mass Effect 3 sets an entirely new benchmark for story in Gaming. Totally incredible...

PS: AND I KNEW THEY WOULD NEVER KILL HARBINGER! LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN FOR DLC!! MASS EFFECT 3: HARBINGER'S RETURN!!! Continue onward from your ME3 ending to pursue the last Reaper and get vengence for your squad...

Who's with me?

I think it's more likely the catalyst/guardian took the manifestation of whaever was dogging Shepard's mind.

I could understand why their reaction was priceless. They were probably in awe of how bad it was. I know when I finished the game I was like... "that's it? wtf just happened? maybe there's more after the credits..wtf is this?"

It blew me away alright.

My reaction was priceless too. If I hadn't restrained myself from flipping my desk over, it might have been very pricey.

The reaction most people have with the ending is somewhat to the same effect as 2girls1cup, DISGUST.

What Zhriver said, and you 'hoping they don't change the endings' is quite, well, unnecessary and frankly rude. Many people are willing to pay for real alternatives over the three color coded identical ones we get now.

Perusing vengeance is a bit difficult considering Shepard dies in majority of the endings. ._.

Coming out of nowhere does not make an amazing ending. Also the kid that died is not the AI god kid thing. It went all the way into that its so bad its not funny territory.

Although I do think there is still a lot of excellent writing prior to the ending of tricolor vision. The contrast is what made people upset there was so much potential and demonstrated emotional events but the ending didnt quite achive that.

The fact that Mass Effect 3 was so engaging is what made the ending so awful. The feelings complete despair seeing all the deaths, all the once great civilizations in ruins, and just knowing how constantly close you are to failure and how everyone is sacrificing all they have left in one desperate attack. The feelings hope from seeing all the people who's lives you have improved, all the good you have done, and how you've managed to bring the entire galaxy, friends and foes, together. Then after have these emotions used to keep you going through that last ditch push where so many are dying so you can just barely make it to that beam, only to have everything end up in some contrived, curveball ending with no closure whatsoever just leaves you with an awful emptiness.
