Well written, this is in line with a perfect ending that i imagined could be unlocked.

Like I've said with the other endings supplied, I'd get rid of the God Child bit entirely. It's still a horrible, forced, choice-ignoring deus ex machina. There needs to be something other than the whole segment on the Citadel. I don't mind the Reapers motivation (although I think they should have left it unexplained to maintain the mystery, it's still better than the dark energy hypothesis people are throwing out), but I just can't stand the choices, even if they add a fourth. There needs to be something entirely different, something that actually flows naturally. No bargaining, just victory or defeat.

But the ending, the actual ending of the game, the bit that plays when the galaxy is saved and before the credits roll, that is this. THAT. IS. THIS.

This is incredible. I love it. It makes me wonder how difficult it would be for the community to mod such a thing into the game.

This. These endings are much better than the crap Mac Walters gave us.

Is it even possible for Shepard to get Tali pregnant? I think adopting a war orphan is more likely. and also the EDI and Joker bit in the Liara one. Are they planning on building children or what? Not saying these didn't give me a warm fuzzy feelin but there's no point in going from one flawed ending to another. keep workin on it though like where its goin

I also must raise a *slight* objection to the assumption that for a person to achieve true and lasting happiness they must spawn a child. Every single one of those endings hints at having children in some way which is something a lot of people's Shepards might have no interest in.

I love everything but the prego Tali... Humans and Quarians can't have children... but they can adopt among other methods but the Themes are prefect right on the spot with the feel of rest of the game..

Hope against all odds.  

I especially love the speach that shepard gives... these so simple yet so meaningful... 

so much better than the crap Walters gave us in trying to be meaningful. 

Not to seay he is a terrible writer because they did a great job up until  end and then dropped the ball..
 These endings are  through are great...

and you can  do variants  of them where Shepard does not survive but  still give the same message if someone want to a more Bittersweet ending ..

Very good OP... very good

These are well done, but I think it's missing something.

When the laser beam hits Shepard, he is nearly dead.  He is beaten, broken, bloodied.  Whether he is correct or not, be believes that his squad mates are dead (which in my case, was his lover Ashley and his best friend Garrus).  He is ready to die...he's just going to take the Reapers with him.  This is why your re-write of the confrontation with ghostboy doesn't really fit.  You're showing Shepard to be angry and confrontational, but at this point, my Shepard was accepting his fate. 

I LOVE the closure you're giving to other characters and species, but I think it's important to remember that by the time Shepard found ghostboy, he could barely move.

That is much better than those ones that we have in this game. With endings like that ME3 will be the greatest computer game in the Universe. I like it))

nice :D that is "my canon" ending :D

This is my overdone „canon“ ending. :D (infos: femshep LI Liara, Paragon)

It begins where Shapard the crucible-kid  and the crucible told  Shepard the three options.

Crucible: So..what is your choice?
Shepard : No.
Crucible: This is not a simple “yes/no” question
Shepard : I dont accept your “choices”.
Crucible: Then the...your circle will end like so many before.
Shepard : You are talking about life and death, organic will creat synthetic  an it will in retunr the creators. I came here to end it once and for all. So I am going to say it only one time.  Get, the, fu***, out of our universe, now! This universe got here, in all its glory, with all his might to drive you out.
Crucible:  This is not....
Shepard : Shut up!
Crucible:  I cant...
Shepard : Is there something wrong with your ears? I said pis** off and leave us alone.
Crucible: Not acceptable....but.
Shepard : But what...?
Crucible: The reapers kept the order for millions of years.
Shepard : So?
Crucible: ...There might be an another way...but it has a price.

Back to earth, London near that “beaming-thing”. For a sec a bluelight comes from the sky and the beam is gone. Whe see Shepard and Anderson. Anderson seems unconscious.

Shepard: I...need a Doct... *she also falls, and is unconscious*
In the back we see reapers and they are just falling.

Timeskip 1 week later. Shepard wakes up. She is in the hospital on the Citadel. She hears Anderson and Dr.Chakwas.

Chakwas: I still dont know what happened to hear...
Anderson: So...no medical explanation at all?
Chakwas: Nothing I know could do that....
Anderson turn around.
Anderson: Oh, we could ask her. Good morning Shepard.
Chakwas: You sleept for a long time...again.
Anderson: Shepard...what happened up there?
Shepard:  I..payed a price...well for one human the price is enormous..for the galaxy...nothing.
Anderson: what do you mean....?
Liara comes in the room.
Liara: Shepard!!!
Liara hugs Shepard.
Shepard: arg..not so hard.
Liara: Sorry, sorry!
Anderson: Didnt you wanted something to tell us.
Shepard: Do you realy want to know?
Anderson:  By all means.

Flashback to the Crucible and Shepard.

Shepard: So...what is the other way?
Crucible: As I said. The reapers are keeping the order that synthetic will never kill there masters. You could replace them. You could keep the order in the universe....till the end of time.
Shepard: What.. do you mean?
Crucible: You will be imortal You will not age, you cant die You will life till times end. You will keep the order in the universe. You will life for billions and billions of years. The reapers will go you will take there place.
Shepard: So... the reapers will never return...but I will life for ever. See my friends die....my love.
Crucible: Yes. You will keep the universe save.  You will see nations rice higher then ever and then vanish in time.  you will go mad within years, and know that this will go on and on and on. What do you say?
Shepard:....if I do...I have one wish.
Crucible: And what is that?

Back to the hospital.

Anderson: So. You took the place as a keeper of the peace..
Shepard: If you want to say it like that...yes
Anderson: I still dont understand what is the“price”?
Shepard: I think it is not really a price.... its a burden. Keeping the universe save watching over all kinds of life....
Liara: you sad something about a wish...what was it?
Shepard: Living for so long...I asked if I could have at last one …...companion at my side.. But...she will also life till end of time...
Liara: What must this “companion” do to also have this burden?
Shepard: If she...... realy wants to she must ki....
Liara kisses Shepard
Liara wispers in Shepards ear.
Liara: Till the end of time then, my love.
*fades out*

We now see pictures of the crew and what happened to them. (if anybody of them died nothing will be said about them)

Joker: After the Reaper-War we didnt need a Army anymore. For the first time, we had peace. But we needed to rebuild house for house, street for street, city for city, land for land... planet for planet.
It all wen well....till I had a crash. Every bone....well almost every bone was broken. Thanks to technology from the geth they..... well....well...they put my brain into a robot...at last I could be with edi. Watching the sunset on the Moon.....doing all sort of things I couldnt with my glass-bones.
(if you could make peace between geth and quarian it will say: Flight lieutenant named “joker” was K.I.A. During a mission)

Miranda: After the death of TIM and still havin “contects” Jakob and I took over. We changed the name and helped planets to rebuild. Somebody asked my why: “because they had a a** lot of money) We changed the name into “Ark” like a legendary Ship on earth.
(if Miranda dies Jakob will say it, If Jakob dies Miranda will just say here name)
Garrus: Bailey died in the Citadel. They asked me if I could take this place.....well....i did. But only after Palaven was rebuiled.  I asked why me? They just said...most of the former personal is dead...so you where the last chance.

Wrex:  I never thought that one day...on Tuchanka  a statue of a human would stand. And ...of a Salarian (if Genophage was cured).  Eve and I had kids....well aaaalot them. The first boy was named Mordin (if Genophage was cured, if not he will name him Garrus if Shepard is Mail then the first born is Shepard). The first girl named Shepard. I never though I would be friend with a human.

Grunt: Wrex brought almost every Kogan-Clan under his hand.  The Krogans became again...a mighty race. As for myself I became...well to my suprice the Council member for the Krogans.

Ashley: As a Specter I traveld with Shepard for many years. Many said I could lead a team myself. But....how could I do that, Shepard.... saved not only my life but so many...soooo many lives.

Javik: After the war Shepard gave me the coordinates of Ilos. I wanted to see a City ...again. Just once.

Tali: I couldnt believe it one single women ended a war. A war that was going on for 300 years.... They builded Citys in her name... not only on Rannoch, all over the universe. She visits me once and a while. In my house... nice view.

Zaeed: I took this warthing as a second chance. I gave up the bounty hunter job. Doing something “nice”. But if somebody is picking a fight with me....i still crush his head.

Kasumi: Seeing almost everything dying... somebody had to...change things. I began to steal things and bring them back to the owner. Some say it is still stealing. I stay it is doing what is right.

Jack: War is still the best practice. The question is...now then every war has ended....what are ...or more what should we fight? Shepard told me, now that the biggest war in our history is over, we should focus on life, not death. Somebody how has singlehandly changed the face of the universe, defeded armys...but....also someone how ended wars, just with words.

Jakob: Miranda in I are now the leaders of “Cerberus”..i mean. “ark”. Carberus did so much horrible things.... through “ark” we try to, well pay something back.

James: I stayed with Shepard. Why the **** would I do something else? She is a bloody warhero. The universe will always remember her.  Maybe it will not remember me...but at last I helped.

EDI: After I all saw what Shepard did. I still dont know why she “gave” her mortality. Shepard could have done anything. Shepard didnt need to care about what happens after she might died. But she choose to life for millions of years to save and protect us... (if joker  and edi have a relationship and geht are at peace with quarians) After jokers accident and his conversion into an android we were able to do things  we couldnt why he was a human.
Morinth:Shepard saved my life...again. I cant thank her enough.

Liara: Shepard payed the ultimate price. Some say beeing imortal is good.... they should ask us in...well lets say 500.000 years....if I regret beeing imortal watching everything and everyone die in time..... as long I am with shepard no.

*fades out*

We see now planets.

Earth: It took 24 years to rebuild earth. It wasnt like before the war. And it will never be. But we live on.

Ilos: The legendary planet.... some adventurer were visiting it... they said they saw a shadow and a voice. They were laught at.

Tuchanka: (if genophage is cured)Tuchanka rose to a high power. (if wrex is alive) Wrex united the planet and even if the Krogans were a brutal species, under his guidens they reduced the violent nature. (if wrex is dead) Draak a brutal krogan united the planet in blood. They spread and conquerd many systems. After system. A new war will start soon.
(if genophage remains) With the genophage the krogans died out. Some are seen but their species is categorized as extinct.

Rannoch: Quarians and Geth rebuild Rannoch. Within years we could walk without their enviro-suits.  The peace kept for ages.

Palaven: Palaven was he most destroyed planet from all. It took 50 years to build it back to prewar standarts.

Thessia: The Asari homeworld wasnt so bad damaged as the rest. Some say they know about the reapers all along and had defence systems.  Nobody could ever proof that. And the few they might had one disappeared.

*fades out*

we see a picture of Shepard.

As for the Commander. Shortly after the reaper war Shepard was promoted to admiral. She didnt saved the universe once, she did it twice. She made peace between archnemesis. The universe will remember her till the end of time. Maybe being immortal will help her legend even more. She could have went mad, but she didnt was it thanks to liara? If you ask Shepard she says yes.

*fades out*
credits roll

50.000 years later

We see Shepard sitting in front of the “normandy memorial. A lot of names are on it now.
Liara stands in the doorway. She is standing there watching Shepard in silence.



Liara: Everything alright?
Shepard: Yes, thanks for asking.
Liara: The reapers didnt return
Shepard: Yes..they didnt. Did you ever regret....
before Shepard could finish the sentence.
Liara: No, as long as I am with you I will never regret it.
Liara hugs Shepard. The camera goes back, out of a window we are seeing a gigantic spaceship. On the side we see in red letters the word “UG-1 Shepard.”
(ug = united galaxy)

*fades out last time*

Amazing Op.  You've kinda helped take my depression of the endings away. Just a little bit.

You've given me an ending that I can replay in my head over and over, instead of what we were given. Honestly, thank you.

Yeah, I know I overshot that one.  I was so depressed after playing the last five minutes of this game that I had to do something to correct it.  I know the pregnancy thing is stretching it a bit (and by a bit I mean a lot), and looking back I should have ended the scene after they told each other "I love you."    

Thank you everyone for your comments.  Writing this has made me feel a little less depressed than I was.  Thank you all very much.

That was really good, It needs to be edited a bit here and there but all in all it was really really good. Now we just need to get the community to make at and offer it as a free mod. (Give Bioware the finger and not buy any of their DLC crap after what they did to us.)

Bravo sir...Epic ending...Loved everyone one of them. I just hope you can also incorporate what happens to everyone else such as Grunt, Jacob, etc. I don't know if I'm asking too much but with all these incorporated into the ending. It will truly be one of the greatest endings ever.

Now I know any possibility of offspring between Tali and Shep is beyond remote into bordering on impossible (heck, I'm a biologist by training, so I'm doubly sure of it), but to tell you the truth I like it. In a narrative sense, it reinforces the miracle like feel that the ending is trying to convey. Kind of like a little shock and wink, right before the curtains fall. So again I say, Bravo!

Short question about the entitlement mindset. Why exactly would we *deserve* anything? Because we paid a few bucks?

IMO even the portion game up to the battle of Tuchanka was well worth the $60 bucks, and is more than the COD franchise ever gave.

Real works of art are not made to order. Not for a million bucks and certainly not for 60. They are made by people who love what they're doing and do it their own way.

When somebody takes a HUGE Sh*t in the beautiful bowl of punch that they just made and you just paid for... I think you've got the right to complain, and request a change.

These are so great. The way Shepard denies the catalyst is exactly what should have happened and i like the resolution with the LI's that we were promised would be significant but just turns out to be exactly the same as if you hadnt romanced them in ME1. (-_-) Although i would have the Ashley one ending on Ash looking nervous in a white dress. Garrus is there in turian formal wear. Then after the credits we see Garrus walking Ash down the aisle towards Shepard on their wedding day. It would be a really good opportunity to see all the important people we've met over the games in as guests there. The squadmates from all the games would be there (the alive ones anyway) as well as people from side-quests. Could you imagine Conrad waving frantically at Shepard all the way from the back with a stupid look on his face? Then they could imply that Ash was pregnant by putting their hands on her stomach as they kiss and it fades to black. I like your ending too but i always imagined my Shepard and Ashley getting married and having kids. I also thought that if shepard were to have to make a heroic sacrifice to save everyone then there would be a big golden statue of him on Earth. That would be pretty awesome IMO.
