 I played DA:O a lot, and I haved played both ME1 and ME2 a lot. But after the path Bioware has taken with both ME3 and DA2, I really dont see the point in buying games from them anymore. From a half finished game to an ending that spit in the face of 5 year of an amazing universe, whats the point in giving bioware any more money if all they can do is dissapointt.

I agree with Spectre. Mass Effect 3 deserved a WAY better ending.. not the half-assed, depressing one it got =/

I like many others preordered BioWare games based on developer name alone.
There was a trust there, a trust that I maintained up to ME3.
That trust is now gone.

Not just ME3. But the whole trilogy.
3 wonderful games and 3 epic stories completely destroyed in 10 minutes. Hardly seems possible does it?

I am disappointed in the ending, very disappointed.

And I am extremely shocked that the end of a trilogy years in the making gets three color-swapped cutscenes.

I guess the end of Mass Effect wasn't important enough to spend the time and resources to make unqiue and different endings save for color swaps and the order in which some characters exit the Normandy.

Mass Effect 3 was a spectacular game. I'll play it again once I get over the POS they call an ending.

Dragon Age 2 was a good game, but didn't live up to the first.

Have I lost my faith in BioWare? No. Am I losing faith in their relationship with EA? Most definitely.

Its unreal how in the span of 10 minutes they turned an easy game of the year winner, into one of the worst games ive ever played.

Everyone is disappointed. Bioware will make another ending, or their loyal and dedicated fans will turn on them and Bioware will go broke. I have never been depressed before by an ending to a video game until I played ME3. I am seriously still in shock by this. I'm going to go cry and feel sorry for my Shepard now.

The ending didn't ruin a single game, or a 3 game series. It ruined an entire universe. There is no Mass Effect post ME3. The relays are gone. The vast majority of an entire race is stuck in a system that CAN'T feed or support them.

An entire galaxy of possible games post ME3, is null and void with this ending. Any prequel games are pointless, since the ending made anything and everything previous to it, totally pointless. Bioware killed an entire universe with these endings.

It does not and yet they pulled it off with striking precision.

I've never gotten this worked up over how a game ends, but I'm seriously having a nerdgasm right now.... and not the good kind. Bioware spends 5 years letting us get attached to the ME universe and its characters then they don't give us a single happy ending. I wouldn't care if there were 50 bad endings, I'd go out of my way to get the happy one.

I told Chakwa we could have the Serrice Ice brandy after we kicked some reaper ass really thinking I would be able to do exactly that and survive. They really gave us hope that it would be possible and them smashed that hope in the last 5 minutes.

Heck, don't mass relays destroy the systems they are in? That's what we saw with the Arrival DLC. So every ending, no matter what, the mass relays are gone as with alot of the galaxy's major systems...

These endings, plot holes, lack of epilogue effectively and systematically ruined the series for me. It is currently a definitive, 21st Sci-Fi epic (imo) for the 21st century, but only when the endings are not included from ME:3.

Sure, keep those endings, but have a better one for those who want to see the best, possible outcome. At the moment, these endings, along with the backwards logic of that space child, ANYTHING is apparently possible.

Man, I know. I too was thinking of Dr. Chakwas after the ending and thinking of how Bioware gave us hope. I'd do anything to have that Serrice Ice Brandy with her right now.

Agreed. The entire game I always lied to my crewmates and told them I was fine when they asked if I was okay. Whenever they themselves started to doubt I always said that we would go in, shoot Reaper's faces off, and get out, just like old times. I mean, I'm Commander Mosuckrin' Shepard, I can't die like this! I killed Saren, blew up Virmire, stopped Sovereign, passed through the Mu and Omega relays, destroyed the collectors, blew up a human-Reaper, and united species that have been at each other's throats for generations. I honestly believed that I'd be able to survive this one.

I'm a strong supporter of the whole "everything post getting hit with the Reaper blast on Earth was a dream" theory and I'm hanging on threads hoping that Bioware really has that or something similar up their sleeves to fix this mess.

I was looking forward to playing the entire series again and choosing different choices to see what would happen in ME3. The ending, as is, makes it moot to even attempt.

I thought ME3 was good. Better than ME2 in some aspects. It's just the last mission that sucks nuts.
