@Leyawin - Uggh, I read your warning too late. I just tried to listen to some of the soundtrack, thinking that at least the music was good and maybe I can enjoy that, but I got to the second track, Leaving Earth (the soft piano tune, when the kid and the shuttles are destroyed), and I flinched so bad when the reaper "blared" that I had to stop it. Too soon, I guess.


wow I just wanted to see if it truly had any effect on me, so I turned it on. That song was so great and emotional in the ME3 launch trailer, but now listening to it... I had to stop at that Reaper "call/blare" as well.

Im going to take a nap.

I find some solace in the fact others feel the same way. I feel betrayed, hurt, mislead. I don't feel like playing or doing anything, This is truly an awful feeling.

Why Bioware? How did that decision for the end ever become a reality? You ignored every piece of why ME was so great - our decisions were supposed to matter.

Funny, I thought I was the only one who felt this way. I can't get into *anything* gaming related.

oh man this describes exactly how I felt after this whole thing

finished the game, turned off xbox went upstairs. Ate in silence, sat on bed and contemplated the ending. Didn't know how I felt at first, I've invested a lot in this universe. Time, money, maybe love. Go to sleep still haven't said anything since beating the game.

Wake up angry, think "maybe this is how star wars fans felt about the prequels?" No. The prequels don't ruin the universe and can be ignored. Realize that the endings were all ****, they really don't have any redeeming qualities.

Well, if it's like this I might actually get some real work done for a change which wouldn't be a bad thing. I'll get some needed sleep.

"An End Once And For All", "I Was Lost Without You", and "Leaving Earth" are the ones that got me. I listened to 'Answer' by Sarah McLachlan too, it's been my theme for my femshep in ME3. Imagine if this was real and we were all this invested in it...we wouldn't survive this lol. On a side note: Have any of you wondered about Shepard's parents? Hackett mentions Shep's mom but we never hear from her or anything, not even a freakin' email! Would've been really cool if they had added Shep's mother in those we could say goodbye to. I, for one, thought maybe they'd let us see Shep's family in 3.

They have already been planning a dlc, i doubt the dlc will be a fix to the endings in any way.

i think i'll leave a couple of words on how i feel too..: just as @complicated stares wrote, after i finished the game, i didnt know if should burst into tears or just stare at the screen in silince as the ending song plays, and the fact that its fauntus thats playng that song and its sound exactuly as the ending song in the first game, yes, that was a sad moment in my life..i tried to play something else today so i could stop being so down about sheps death (and other things) but the last nights gaming havent left me yet. And now, almost 24 hours after i finished mass effect 3...i still cant let i go, bioware lied to me, and other loyal fans. we was going to get closuer and leave the ME galaxy with a smile on our lips...yeah right...i left it with a sore heart and an empty soul...i feel like ****..i need a drink. p.s sorry for my english..

Glad I'm not the only one staring dejectedly at my Xbox , PS3 and computer. I just don't want to play any game right now. Sad.

This a thousand times.  We enjoy games where we get to live outside ourselves.  If I wanted to experience something truly awful I would turn on the news.  Games are supposed to be fun, a way to escape and be something more than ourselves not a torment that makes us sad.

This type of gaming is like the new Soap Opera. I was in college during the General Hospital Luke and Laura days. (Yes, I'm that old!) No one went to class between 3-4pm, male or female, because we were all glued to the story and to these characters. It was great. ME has been great! It's just a more involved story that I can be a part of rather than just sit and watch. It's the new gaming Soap Opera and I'm all for it! I actually stood in line at the midnight release with two of my three kids we were so excited. Because ME and ME2 were so darn good, I was sure ME3 would be as good if not better. It is still a great game, but....it was created solo. It was disconnected from the running storyline. Where is Harbinger? What about the Keepers? Dark Energy? .....ME 3 is a stand alone game, not part of the trilogy I thought I was playing.

I'm with you all.

Hurt, angry, confused, betrayed, sad (ok, I expected sad, but  of the "just finished the Lord of the Rings for the first time" type, not this AWFUL hole in my chest)

My husband is torn between laughing at me and being genuinly concerned since I can't stop tearing up over the lousy ending options.  Packed up my CE box and goodies and locked them in my car so they can't hurt me for a while.

The dogs are happy, though, they've gotten several walks since I finished the game at 11am this morning as I try to pound out my feelings through my feet!

Glad to know I'm not the only one losing my marbles over this!

I think it is partly compounded by the fact that none of us have ever felt like this before, and it feels a little silly to do so over a piece of media.  What can you say though?  At least being female gives us the excuse of "We're girls, we get to be crazy sometimes".  Poor guys :(

You know, I just realized I feel this way as well. The ending was so soul-crushingly depressing that I don't have any desire right now to play any video games at all.


This is exactly how I feel dammit! ;-(

i actually was not gaming much at all for a while until ME3 came out (just replaying a FS2 fan campaign for a bit). i'm a massive immersion junkie, and this game had the biggest emotional impacts on me that any medium has ever had in my life, to the point where i finished it in 3 sittings (the first two of which lasted 14 and 9 hours, respectively), and when i stopping playing (it wasn't even the ending, it was simply not playing the game anymore), i fell into complete apathy (bad remnant of my not-so-old depression days) to the point where i'm still having trouble dragging myself out of bed. now, the impact it's had on me as regarding disappointment hasn't been as bad as that on other people (i was essentially high on the game itself and didn't care much at the time, softening the situation), but really, this sort of thing is quite simply a disgrace. i don't know how much i'll be gaming in the short term, but bioware's writers have certainly let me down in this one, and i'll have no choice but to direct a cynical eye to them regarding future actions.

When I beat ME 2 I was so excited and actually started my second playthrough right away. Now after beating ME 3 with the "good" ending I kind of want to take a week off before doing New Game plus
