I am still depressed, I'm completly obsessed with this series and have been from the get-go, imagine how I feel, this isn't one knife in my back, this is more like one hundred!

It was a decent ending, just one that left some questions... felt a little inconsistent/poorly explained or presented.

Nope, i did not like ending(s) at all for a couple of reasons :

- Your choices do not matter at all

- Lack of variation

- Unrealistic and illogical

- Sad, depressive and bleak

- Loose and open-ended, no closure

- It does not suggest any replay value

I hate the ending for all of these reasons.

I am in the same boat as you are. 

That ending almost had me reaching for the diazepam again.

Personally I really disliked the endings. I've beat it twice now, and there was very little variance. (Taste the rainbow!)

What irked me the most was the random Normandy bit (wdf was going on there?) and that there wasn't any real epilogue. Did the Krogan start more wars through uncontrolled breeding once the Genophage was cured? Did the Rachni simply leave after, and the other races were cool with that? Did any factions try to take advantage of the now shifted powers in the galaxy? Uhg...

It wasn't poorly explained, it wasn't explained! If you're trying to end a series, don't rush it, in fact the end is the most important part, screw that up and you ****** off a lot of devoted fans, such as yours truly. Now you owe us a mass effect to explain what happened, with the crucable and after your choice of suicide! It raises more questions than it anwsers!

[UnfavoredStore]

Lol I like how quickly this is turning in to a rant thread XD

[UnfavoredStore]

Also, the ending doesn't suggest no replay value for the game, it discurages replaying any games in the series, if you plan to import! The choices have no effect whatsoever, case closed.

Hated them. When credits were still rolling I was already on the forums....

[UnfavoredStore]

lol so true! I was considering sending bioware a very angry email, but somehow I decided to go on the fourms, and here we are...

[LtHyperion]

I feel very depressed and empty because of the ending.

I don't understand the "My choices didn't matter" argument. Your choices were acknowledged throughout the game, you even got to make a big choice at the end. Sure, somethings will be canonised if a story is to occur after the Shepard triology but nothing definite has been said on that front yet.

My life has lost all meaning. Food has no taste, pwning n00bz on da codz has lost its touch, and trolling random videos is all but fun now. I mean the rest of the game is good, and I might do an import, if I can forget that I was told that everything I know is a lie!

You choices didn't matter, as they only influence the order your crew leaves the normandy.

While I find the ending not so terrible in itself, if find it strangley disconnect to the rest of game, all 3 games in fact, end executed suboptimal.

As if they guy is right that claims they changed it last minute.

Well what I mean is, you never get to see the concenquences of your actions. I have no idea what happened after... it... do the quarians live without their suits? Did the geth revolt again? Did the krogan start eating solarians? I have no idea! The normandy crashes, t h e e n d!

[Leonia]

Oh right you guys acknowledge the Normandy scene as happening. I think it's just a bug really.

In most RPG's your choices never matters.

A bug... you may be on to somthing...

Just because your choices are accumulated in a point count it doesn't mean they didn't happen, you know.

The only thing that was hazy is how they get back to the Normandy, when did that happen?
Otherwise, it's okay. Though I guess some text-based input on the Krogans and the other races wouldn't have hurt, that's what people seem to have wanted.

[UnfavoredStore]

The thing is, you never see what happened. Even if the god jesus robot kid accually happened, how did your "final choice" impact the universe? I shure as hell don't know!

[KeyStroke]

Completed the game last night. The ending started good, then it just went downhill fast, and left me with a game that got no replay value what so ever. I see no reason to get any dlc's or add ons later, because no matter what you do, it doesn't change a damn thing. No matter how large fleets you gather and how many you unite to the cause, end game still the same...

And if we come to see a "happy ending $9.99 dlc.", this will be the last game I buy from Bioware ever.

[UnfavoredStore]

Agreed, except dragon age 3 may be promising...

Well that's good, and what kills me is that after that, martin sheen tells us it was all just a tale he made up for his son... I think, I don't know, its never explained...

I think the writers definitely fumbled on what they probably meant to be pretty coherent stuff leading up to that scene... but that scene itself was more than likely intended to be oddly ambiguous from the get-go.

Actually, it was Buzz Aldrin who was the Stargazer - and presumably the kid was the Stargazer's grandson. He does not say that Shepard was a story that he made up. It was a bit ambiguous - enough so that I was starting to worry that they'd pulled a St. Elsewhere until I got the achievement and the text blurb at the end. It seemed to indicate that Shepard and his/her story become immortalized because Shepard saved the galaxy.

But not knowing doesn't invalidate what you've achieved. Your choices certainly mattered throughout.

It's open-ended to let us imagine the possibilities of what might happen next. Or maybe it's left that way so that canon can be established for future games.

I mean the 3 "choices" in the ending. The game is absolutly brilliant till you run to the portal. But the ending of plot  is to comprimized and disconnected to the games (Like didi you remember ME1, where Reapers couldn't activate the citadel, now the citadel suddenly controles the Reapers, why build the Human Reaper in ME2 when Reapers just are here to destroy organic life after all). I expected the ending to explain the trilogy (like the dark energy ending would have). And it realy misses a kind of status report, after all is over.
