I'm glad I'm not alone with the strange sheer amount of depression this game has made me feel. The ending made me cry badly. And I don't even wanna pick up ME1, now I know where it will lead. I was going to do yet another fresh run of the whole trilogy, start to finish. But now, I just wonder what it's for...

[OrlesianWardenCommander]

When i beat the game i had PTSD for 2 days. I was clinically depressed. I could no function, all i had were questions my head riddled and occupied. I got over it and am playing it again. Grasping at straws thinking bioware might change something or add something. Its a long shot, but boy what i would give to see Liara with child, see Joker and Garrus EDE etc. This ending just hit home still hurts replaying through it. Shepard lost so much, experienced so much. He deserved a paragon ending where he lives and finally has fulfilled his duty and can settle down.

Bioware make this right its not to late to make closure for the endings and add one where shepard reunites with his crew. I know you guys have something planned but we didn't pay to have a half finished game. The game was so awesome but in 5 mins the punch to the soul was to much to bare...

[katamuro]

I have done 5 runs of me1 to me2. replaying sections so that i could see differences yet never betraying my sense of Shepard. Its 17 days of pure gameplay. 17 days of my life I spent purely on this universe. and to end it in such a way.
As the video of hitler finding out about the ending says.

I JUST WANTED TO BE WITH TALI ONE MORE TIME, SEE HER FACE AND TALK TO HER WITHOUT A MASK.

[MinatheBrat]

No you're not alone in that @ JusticarDoom.
I was little disturbed how depressed I was over this until I realized that I'm not alone! I usually just lurk in this forum, but I had to join in the collective waaah-fest.
I guess that old expression that misery loves company is true....though I'd happily give up being miserable for a decent endgame!

It's been two days and I feel like a zombie. I don't know why I'm this sad, it's just a game, right? :/

People don't think it is silly that you feel bad about the game. It's not the game you are sad over it is what that game represents. We've all invested significant time, money, and emotional energy into this series and its characters. To see all of that investment was for nothing is why you are unhappy. Imagine the first time you see Return of the Jedi George Lucas has the Emporer kill Luke and the credits start rolling. I imagine the feeling would be similar.

[Harorrd]

i´ve never felt this bad before, its like i´ve lost a close friend... its all dark and hard inside my head i cant think straight because i am so sad....

[katamuro]

I think even if the characters were not real the feelings we had for them and the Shepard were real. After all many of us have devoted several years to this universe. I have known and loved it and loved Tali for 5 years, A quarter of my whole life. When I got ME1 it was on a whim from amazon late at night because it cost me just £7. This game made me feel better when things were tough. I actually chose my current course in university because I believed that if I decided to try to make our world into something like that universe I would be happy even if nobody would remember me a 100 years from now. I wanted to bring mass effect into our lives, to make it real so that our emotions toward it would be rewarded. But now...
Maybe we can create something better, something more. If we all come together maybe we can do something that would take our feelings and turn them into something positive, so that we would never have to be in such a state again

This is extremely fascinating. It's weird, because my brother and I are pretty much on the same foothold here on the outcome of the game. The death of your companions really emotionally got you. The last few footsteps deciding the future of the galaxy, and the flashbacks was just tearing my soul apart. Literally on the "control" one, the look on Shepards face as he is vaporized into nothing, and if you've got Liara as LI, her smile and "gift" back in London just guts you so deep.

It's a wonderful piece of world Bioware has created that really has some wicked bond and immersion to it. You end up getting the feeling "Yeah, I'd love to be in the Citadel, crousing the prosedium with all these species and etc;"- then you get sort of torn by the fact, everything isn't all rainbow and sunshine.

I'm extremely fascinated by how well they've accomplished something like this. I've never really seen anything like it. People that's played the game turn into well, appropiate metaphor of mindless husks. I zoned out when I beat the game, but I'm sure it'll pass. I don't think any game can really top this in terms of immersive experience, as well mentally and emotionally.

I respect Bioware for it, but also hate them for ending it. An odd dilemma.

[Grumpy-Mcfart]

I'm usually the first person to point and laugh whenever someone says a franchise is "Ruined FOREVER!" but, honestly?

the ending of this game just completely killed my enjoyment of one of my 2 favorite sci-fi universes. I can't enjoy the comics, I can't enjoy the games, I can't even enjoy the BOOKS (I never bothered with deception).

if you knew me, and how easily I can lose myself in even a mediocre book, you'd know just how deeply this has affected me.

[Pandora]

I have to be honest..I'm definitely struggling playing a second play through of the game on Insanity, not because of the difficulty but I don't have a desire to exert that 'effort,' because I know that ending will still be there and my actions have no effect in that finale makes me cringe.

This link i found while reading a different thread here on bsn a US marine soldier wrote it. All credit goes to Ampmaster. Its his work and his feelings in it. Its also so very close to my feelings. To everyone who wants to escape a bit back into ME.

With Mass Effect 1 and 2, I played the endings over and over
Storming the Citadel and confronting Saren while the fleet battle raged above.
Attacking the Collector Base, paying them back for all the pain they caused Shepard.

These were epic moments they made me a silly fangirl.
Then came ME3. It was almost there. Almost had that same epic I'm going to do this bit then reload and DO IT AGAIN and then... THAT THING happened.

And now I can't even touch any of the games. Previously wonderful memories are soured by the knowledge that none of it matters and it's all going to hell.

^ same for me

[Harorrd]

Yeha, it was fun to play ME1 because you won, and me2 because you had the choise to win or lose it was fun and happy

Me3 just slaps you in the face with a sloppy death marker and laughts at you

[Fingertrip]

If you ask me, it's more of the ultimate sacrifice, but with a lack of closure.

[katamuro]

Past 3 days for me was all ME3. Since 1500 hours when the delivery man gave me the package to just 3 hours ago when I finished. So much i experienced so much yet...
the emptiness that i was feeling now has transformed into annoyance. will see how I feel in the morning after sleeping. If I fall asleep

That's it for me. I just don't feel like I accomplished anything. At least the Protheans were able to adjust the signal for the next cycle. I may have defeated the Reapers but I fear I just made things worse. Without the relays untold millions in the colonies of every species will now starve to death. I just blew us all back to the stone age. I fought to protect Galactic Civilization in the first 2. Now I have not only undone my work but destroyed that which I swore to protect

[Thornprime]

Just finished...and that had to be the most depressing ending I have ever seen in a video game...and I got the "good" ending. Like others have said before me, I was planning on a play thru Mass Effect 1-3 after this, but to be honest, I don't think I can at this point. The sad part was the game was awesome till the last 10 minutes of the game; all of those great character moments flushed down the toilet.

[Ismelda]

Well I went or Synthesis at the end and it was beautiful. Joker and EDI are alive and well! It was a new dawn for the galaxy thanks to my Shepard. She ascended and freed the galaxy from an endless cycle of destruction ensuring it wont happen again. What more could you expect?

The simple fact that the game has this powerful effect on you is the proof that it is the best one ever.data:image/gif,GIF89a%12%00%12%00%B3%00%00%FF%FF%FF%F7%F7%EF%CC%CC%CC%BD%BE%BD%99%99%99ZYZRUR%00%00%00%FE%01%02%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%21%F9%04%04%14%00%FF%00%2C%00%00%00%00%12%00%12%00%00%04X0%C8I%2B%1D8%EB%3D%E4%00%60%28%8A%85%17%0AG*%8C%40%19%7C%00J%08%C4%B1%92%26z%C76%FE%02%07%C2%89v%F0%7Dz%C3b%C8u%14%82V5%23o%A7%13%19L%BCY-%25%7D%A6l%DF%D0%F5%C7%02%85%5B%D82%90%CBT%87%D8i7%88Y%A8%DB%EFx%8B%DE%12%01%00%3B

Yeah, I've felt like crap for the past day and a half. Video games aren't supposed to make you NOT want to play them! I don't think Bioware knows how much of a mistake they made here. I wouldn't be shocked if I heard on the news at some point that some teenager killed himself over this.

[SharlenaSharlena]

This game sucked all the life outta me today. I teared up at the end knowing that all the time I spent playing with one character and it was all for nothing. Not to mention that I chose the red ending and still died! WTF!!!!!!!!

[Electric Shamisen]

Never before have I seen people not become angry, but depressed because of an ending.
There's no rage here like on the DA2 forums, it's just grief.
Really I just don't feel like gaming anymore. Thinking about all that time wasted makes me feel so sick inside, I can't even sleep. Might just take the day off tomorrow for some rest or something.

[connordavisj]

I feel like I just wasted my entire 3 day weekend. I sat around all day today just hoping for some sort of closure that I knew I wouldn't find. I didn't even want to touch my controller.

[Ultra Prism]

My mind is so distracted that I decided to say hell with my studies ... but my goodness, this game ending is infact resulting me not focusing in my life... I have about 80+ games, never felt so twisted after playing ... i dont know what to say next
