Well I wouldn't say 99%, Kai Leng was kinda weak after his first appearance, but other than that and the ending ME3 really was my favorite game of all time, which makes me wonder how the ending went so wrong.

Absolutely OP. It needs acknowledgement. ME3 as a whole is a great experience.

I confess that most of ME3 was excellent, but let me give you a good analogy of what ME3 is like. A wine maker puts heart and soul into the best wine he has ever created, but right at the last minute someone comes along and adds 1% raw sewage to it. So the question I ask you, do you still drink and enjoy it or is the whole thing tainted now because of the last 1%?

I like the 99% of the game, but the ending... You have to understand, this situation is like eating a fruit, peach for example. The peach is perfect, sweet, juicy, but then, your last bite is a part of the peach that has gone bad, which leaves a sour and bitter taste in your mouth. After you finished the peach, will you remember its sweet and juicy majority, or that last bite's overwhelming bitterness?

so timed missions
crappy journal
fetch quests that consist of scanning 1 planet
tali's face
all this ****** stuff
day 1 dlc
dlc tie ins for every product under the sun
aside from combat and cut-scenes the gameplay consists of wandering around looking for crap to click on
choices not really taken into account across the 3 game (ie my renegade had a human council and anderson was on it)
i could go on
war assets not relly mattering (whole point is to gather them)
LI's sucked with little or no interaction
Jessica Chobot i mean wtf?
every enviroment was linear as hell no exploring
all this and i didn't even touch the ending
oh did i mention tali's face?

99% perfect?
You must be indoctrinated
(thats my new saying, spread it around!)

ps- however harsh, i still had a great time playing aside from the ending

I agree. The only problem I have is with the star-child part and the whole "no closure" thing.

For me: It's more like 60% is great,

There's the bugs/glitches(-5).
I have the PS3 version, so it has horrible framerate issues(-5),
I picked Anderson to be the Human councilor, NOT Udina. But this game somehow ignores that(-5).
I can't recruit any squadmate from ME2(-2).
The "kid"(-3)
The halfa#&ed way they revealed Tali's face. (-4)
The terrible endings(-16)

I will absolutely agree that 99% of the game is one of the best games ever. Loved every second of it, I laughed out loud so many times and even cried twice. A game has never had that effect on me. Just wished that they could have continued that greatness to the end.

Definitely. But unfortunately the ending is a major selling point of this game and it's pretty bad. So it'll of course overshadow the rest of the game.

Acknowledged, of course. Ironically, there wouldn't be such an uproar over the ending if the game ME3 wasn't such a great game. There are parts in the game that I think are better than anything I've seen in any other video games, and are a shining example of why storytelling in video games deserves to be taken seriously. But of course that makes it all the more difficult to accept an ending that's nowhere near the quality of the rest of the game (or franchise for that matter).

It doesn't ignore your councilor pick, the codex explains that Anderson resigned and Udina filled his spot (happened in one of the books apparently)

This

I have never laughed and cried nor been as emotionally invested in a game. So much of the game was beautifully done. I loved it, now i can't play it.

None of us would even be here if we didn't feel this way.


Exactly.  If the series was bad or even mediocre, we wouldn't care enough to spend days on this single issue.  If all of ME3 had been lackluster, we'd be talking about all the problems.  We all acknowledge that everything before the final minutes was great.

The Questing & especially the Journal ... that journal is the worst & it's something you have to check all the time. That's more than 1% ... let's not go into the loyality missions (just talking the crew off & on to unlock there bonuses ... please). I'd say about 50-60% of the game is exactly what we expected. The broken bugs, disc swaping (on Xbox), crashing, un clear mission timers, loss of characters without notice (Kelly Chambers for example), unclear path finding, lack of story telling & context (for people that didn't every comic & book published) ... the list goes on. I'll say it again ... the ending surely is the biggiest f*ck*ng a failure of this console generation , but the rest game of the is sub par as is & step backwards from ME2 in many respects.

I enjoyed the game, minus the end of course, but saying it was 99% correct with the plethora of bugs in it is ridiculous. Game clearly needed 3 more months of bug sqaushing. I felt like I was beta testing it.

To think that you start on an Epic Journey and have a great experience along the way, only to get destroyed in the end....It makes many people bitter.

I never denied that the game up until the ending was amazing, had the best time of my life recently with it. And that makes it all the more painful that a group who can create such a great game also gave us that Trainwreck of an ending....

I can't comprehend how they managed to do it. Either they really got High or they brought in some Deus Ex/ LOST writers to finish the job.

There is also a possibility that they knew this would happen all along and now they are holding on to not respond, wait it out and after the rage has passed , release their '' True endings '' which I find utterly disgusting.

ME3 is like returning from a trip around the world, where you met new people, made hard decisions, encountered challenging moments, and pretty good ones too. You regretted none of it, only to return home to find it burned down.

The journey was so good that the destination really didn't feel like it was worth the effort, nor did it even feel like the destination.

ABSOLUTELY. I hate the following example, but I love how appropriate it is:

If you went out on a date with a guy and had a fantastic time at dinner, the movies, and the club, would you still call it a terrific date if the night ended in date rape?

I agree. I loved 99% of Mass Effect 3. It was brilliant.

Until the ending. The ending is a NON SEQUITUR.

It does not follow logically from three games worth of story that precede it. Further, it lacks internal logic and comes off as paradoxical. It does not follow thematically from three games worth of negative *or* positive options offered to players, instead offering only negativity. It does not follow stylistically from three games worth of branching, player-determined outcomes, instead hijacking control to force a singular, writer-determined conclusion. It does not follow philosophically from the ideas explored in three games worth of storytelling, instead introducing never-before-encountered ideas in a final dilemma that is conceptually disconnected from the preceding story. Further, it presents technophobic precepts as fact–precepts that I personally disagree with and do not enjoy having forced upon me. It does not follow meritoriously, instead the quality of the written dialogue and the voice acting drop noticeably.

The ending of Mass Effect 3 is INCONGRUOUS. It changes course abruptly from everything that came before it. That is why I feel deceived as a customer, disillusioned as a player, and upset as a person. Anything that might remedy this situation I would welcome with open arms.
