I like it and I hope bioware gets the message.

I don't see how its unreasonable to have the option of a happy ending. Whoever wants the sacrifice, grim, bittersweet, depressing ending can have it and whoever wants the happy ending can have it too. Still shocked and gutted there wasn't even an option for a happy ending. Thought I would be feeling happy and fulfilled after these 3 games, instead I feel heartbroken.

I don't see a truly happy ending as possible.

What we got was not bitersweet.  It was a complete downer ending, no matter how you look at it.  Especially after the inferred holocausts are taken into account.

Well yes I realize that but when somebody says "happy" ending they just want to see Shep live and be reunited with LI and crew IMO. Thats what I mean by "happy".

It's an acceptable ending as was calling BS at the end and finding out none of the war effort matters did hit a nerve.

Way too much dialog, but otherwise perfect. Seeing the fleets in action and preserving the ME universe are exactly what needed to happen. And of course letting the battle play out should be dependent upon recruited assets. We all wanted and expected that.

I like it. Putting this ending in the game would be the most cost effective for BW and it would help calm if not placate the fans who hate the current endings.

[xsdob]

Very well written, you get a seal of approval from someone who doesn't mind the original endings.

[Provident_1]

Make this happen. Now.

[Rombomm]

Would need a good bit of work, but it's better than what we have now.

[Slayer299]

OP - Now *that* is an ending and one I could happily live with. Too bad BW screwed up and we're left with three idiot choices.

[Papa John0]

The only part I would remove is the line about the Catalyst's home being the Citadel. Doesn't make sense.

[Tigerlily Warrior]

THANK YOU! This is my ending. If BW won't give us a good ending, you just did!

[Quintus Kessler]

Honestly, I was surprised not to see the Volus bombing fleet in the final battle. Just like my decisions, I felt a lack of accomplishment when the final battlefleet mainly consisted out of human forces.

[KingyyyizME]

 My favorite part was the "or something" at the end.  I was like, lol, you create this masterpiece of an ending , and the way you end it is by acting like this idea is eh.  It's bloody incredible, and should have been how it all ended.

[lasertank]

BUMP again

[Robuthad]

This ending is pure win. I'd stand behind that

[Napier93]

I def like the idea of something morphing into your squad characters to try & convince you to make a choice. The rest of it sounds okay, better than what we've all played. Above all I juat want Alex Sheppard to settle down with Ash & have a few kids. Why won't you let me do that Bioware?!

[Lethys1]

If it was originally planned, yes. If they do something that mirrors this, then I'll be severely disappointed that they couldn't make something original.

Plus, so much death implies the Reapers are winning by a large amount; too much to be beaten. 100% casualties, 92% casualties, Palaven similar numbers. Their soldiers outnumber ours, their ships are better and they have the ability to dock directly on land.

Only 40% of the Hammer survived.

It would be good but wouldn't fit.

I actually rather liked that. It allows for those who actually made the difference in uniting the galaxy and gathering all the war assets (indirectly or directly, through the first two games and the third) to get the ending they earned through hard work and investment.

You could also have the Crucible undock to ram a Reaper capital ship (all that helium 3, those huge eezo cores, and all that mass exploding? Very powerful weapon).

What's nice is that, even if the Reapers do defeat the allied fleet, they'll have taken such heavy losses in this war that the next cycle will have a much easier time winning any potential war, especially with the warnings Liara spread around the galaxy (assuming she built them to last...).

One potential option is, if you don't have enough war assets in the end, you can order/force the Crucible to self-destruct, destroying the Citadel along with it--ensuring that the key aspect of the Reaper trap is gone, not to mention the undeniable evidence of the massive Citadel ward arms embedded in Earth's surface (and the various Reaper carcasses scattered around the galaxy).

[Robob_2005]

I fully support this ending.

[Nioret]

This is very well done, The only thing I disagree with is how suddenly the reapers can be beaten by conventional warfare. That's a bit...routine. The whole "friendship conquers all!" ending.

Regardless, the dialogue was excellent.

[freyafolk]

This ending is considerably better for two reasons.

One, if it all comes down to war assets then your work and decisions DO matter, after all. The crucible was the hope that brought everyone together but ultimately what was needed was concerted allied action on a single front. Something that wouldn't have been possible otherwise.

Two, this ending is so much more in-character than the endings we were offered, which is strange when you'd think the people who created Shepard would be the best placed to maintain character integrity. Throughout the games, from Virmire onwards, Shepard has rejected the Reapers' vision. It's a total betrayal of the character to have him/her to suddenly accept it at the end. This ending stays true to the spirit in which he/she has fought in throughout.

I doubt this will make the slightest difference to the designers. They have the right to impose their vision. Similarly, when they choose to depart from the vision fans had enjoyed so much at the very they should expect a reaction. I just hope one day we'll see someone put this far more consistent ending into reality.

That's not exactly an accurate picture. Those heavy casualties were of ragtag units fighting in the most heavily defended location on Earth, which is where the majority of the Reapers are.

Palaven, if you can secure the krogan aid (especially with the genophage cured, and various war assets to help too), is actually holding on before the final battle.

It's the naval battles that matter at this point, really, aside from Hammer's assault on London. If the Allied Fleet wins at Earth, then they have a chance at killing the remaining Reapers. It all depends on how much of the total Reaper fleet is gathered at Earth (I imagine a vast majority of it is, given that the Crucible docking with an opened Citadel is the only true threat the Reapers acknowledge, and they know that the bulk of the cycle's fleet is still out there, capable of jumping and overwhelming any divided Reaper force...

Friendship conquers all? More like "expert diplomacy, unprecedented cooperation and alliance, good tactics and leadership, a whole ****ton of firepower wins the critical battle".

This may not be a perfect ending, but its better than the one we currently have.

I would accept this if Bioware were to make something like this and add some sort of aftermath bit if you won.

Perfectly acceptable ending. Bioware take example....
