Hold on. Did this horse**** thread really get stickied? Really? I find that a tad insulting.


It would seem so, yes.

Another bad decision by Bioware and their staff. I think we are in need of a combo breaker!

Posted by: halomaster10144How can you enjoy them?  They're all melancholy and sad, along with lacking a real objective.  

That's the point.
You are in the final battle to defeat the Reapers, everybody thinks that the Crucibal is a huge ship that shoots out beams or some crap like that to take down all of the Reapers. 
The Crucibal lands on The Citadel, and then that's when you found out the only decisions to choose. Each would stop the Reapers, but in the end, you would still have to sacrifice your life to save the galaxy.
Kill one, save the rest. You can't change the purpose of the Crucibal. The Crucibal's only way to defeat the Reapers was one of those 3 decisions. You can't change canon to make the community happy, i'm sorry, but that's what the Crucibal is, and that's how you activate it.


I would really, really like that ending if it wasn't the only one.

I guess the mods don't care about spoilers anymore, so...

At the very end of the game you'll notice that the Stargazer and the kid are on the same planet that the Normandy crashed on. This is because your crew starts up a new life, or civilization if you will, on the planet they are stranded on. Nobody can reach them, and vice-versa, because all of the mass relays have been destroyed.

The Stargazer scene takes place many years later, and stories of Shepard have been passed down. This is why Shepard is considered a legend.

You completely missed the point of most people's arguments and chose to focus on this one and this one alone. Many people are more upset about the lack of closure, the unexplained plot holes, the lack of significant diversity in the endings, the fact that your choices up to this point don't seem to matter, and the fact that the character at the end seemingly came out of nowhere to give you ridiculous circular logic bull**** that made no sense.

Huh. I spent 3 games teaching him to tell anyone in his way to move or get a boot in their face. His last 15 minutes are hardly legendary in my mind, especially since I taught him everything he knows about being a hard-ass who don't take s**t from anyone, especially holographic brats.

Im just suprised Bw didnt expect this kind of reaction, its atypical male emotional processing, From shock, when something emotionally impacting thats completley unexpected comes confusion, and its quite normal when that confusion is dwelt upon to turn into anger, and with BW being tight lipped, theres nothing here to make sense of it, so it will fester.
tl;dr - a simple explanation from the writers to what the heck just happened would prolly be helpful.

I cant post in the ME3 owner thread because apparently I dont own the game!? I have contacted EA and still had no reply regarding my authorization request. I do apologize if I have spoiled anything but I have to vent my concerns somehow and the fact that there is so much other sources regarding the endings out there (facebook.youtube etc) i just feel oh what the hell!

I wont ruin any of the good parts of the game (considering it is pretty much all of it except the last 15 minutes) which is an absolute shambles.

Oh I undestand.

I undestand that 3 similar endings that basically violates the lore and setting logic in the last 10 minutes of the game has ruined the entire IP and made any playthrough (I had alot) completely redundant. It insults my intelligence that bioware thinks Im too stupid to notice.


This. I don't know why people have such difficulties comprehending this simple, logical reasoning behind why most people dislike the endings - somehow it always equates to wanting a "sunshine and rainbows" ending.

The fact that this is stickied is a mockery of the forums and its moderation staff, goodness. A spoiler-laden thread getting stickied in a non-spoiler forum. You're damaging people.

... which mod is getting their powers revoked, I wonder? Not only does this not deserve a sticky in the first place, it is rife with spoilers which are not allowed on this forum!

Guys, I'm leaving this here as a sticky as I feel this point of view is warranted. Please try to keep spoilers to a minimum.

Why the hell is this thread a sticky? Just seems like another middle finger to the fanbase that loves this series. <_<
(plus, it doesn't even belong in this forum, cause it's filled with spoilers)

Reapers gather the genetic material and save the races they ascend. Recall from ME 2 this was told and it saves all the knowledge of the races and each individual. So in a way preserving them for eternity within an immortal reapear shell. Now the races they cannot ascend they use them for other purposes see collectors and keepers. They may be able to change them back in the future and that may have been the plan. To reseed planets once all was said and done with the main problem solved given in ME 3 ending.

So all the endings given make sense in that context and so does the motivation behind the cycle. Conventional warfare was doomed as was aptly illustrated through the first two games. Gathering forces was only a buy more time type deal. Conceivably maybe you could beat them on one front but that wouldn't work again as the reapers would consolidate their forces to finish the remnants since all was gathered in one place. So an alternate means was needed. Shepard solved the problem ending the cycle where trillions have failed and is a hero of the ages. How is that not a fitting ending? Crisis averted and everyone knows who saved them.

In the interest of fairness, one of the more civil anti Endings threads should be stickied to.

Probably the one that's giving to that charity.

Hmm at the end of Arrival the Mass Relay destroyed the entire Solar System and according to this the Mass Relays get destroyed so that would mean the Sol Relay would be destroyed as well causeing a Super Nova of immense preportations destroying the Sol system as well so in fact this would destroy all life in the galaxy that has a Mass Relay thus ending the treat of the Reapers as there is no longer a need to harvest life in a galaxy devoid of life.

I like pretty much everything about the endings, from music, execution etc except for the Normandy part. With the information that actually is provided to me I simply can't possibly understand what's the deal with teleporting squadmates and what and why Normandy is doing what it's doing. The Normandy & squadmates part is like KOTOR 2's ending unfortunately. Sad because otherwise it's a great game with good endings.

People don't understand the endings because the endings make no sense. Don't insult our intelligence by advocating it's our fault.

I'd also sure as hell like to know why this is stickied too. I mean, if you guys just don't want my money anymore, just say so. It'll be a time saver for both of us.
