An amazing thread that clearly outlines everything one needs to know to hold the line.
Also thanks for the banner tutorial - Reporting in from the Australian Fleet

This is the most comprehensive thread I've seen yet regarding players' issues with the ending. Thanks for putting all this together!

Very great thread ! But could you please put the banner of the German Fleet on the first page too CDRSkyShepard ? Because the German fleet is also holding the line!
You could just past + copy the banner from my signature ;-)

These are the kind of threads we should be supporting, those that are possitive and contructiver in the issue of endings

Definitely agree that this is one of the fine examples of positive and constructive criticism.

This is excellently well done, if there was one article/post we should show bioware, it would be this one.

Excellent thread! Another thing that has really been bothering me about the ending is why would Shepard ever believe this reaper/god child/whatever it is suppose to be in the first place? It tells you that is is basically the reason for the whole cycle and then gives you three solutions and you just accept that? My Shepard would have told the stupid child to pound sand

We, the fans of Mass Effect, do not wish to attack, belittle, or otherwise demonize the writers who have no doubt pour their hearts and souls into this epic trilogy. However, we do want to hold BioWare accountable for the fan reaction: they warned us “some” might not like the endings, but it turns out “a lot” are not fans of the endings. I can’t imagine why fans should be willing to accept an ending to an otherwise amazing sci-fi epic that makes no sense and is riddled with plot holes.

You claim you do not wish to belittle or ridicule anyone, let alone stand the writers and game developers. Yet you all have no problems screaming high and low that those of us that do understand the endings and what happened or those that do not mind the endings are wrong and stupid.
There is only two real inconsistancies with the endings. That is the Gilligan world Crash landing of the Normandy and the people that step of it, as well as the "who is the Catalyst" part of your thread. everything else is perfectly explained as you play the game.
in the ending when you get hit by the reaper laser(pew pew pew) you hear perfectly fine that NO ONE made it out alive. That includes your two squadmates. mystery solved. However this is were confusion sets in. Why did bioware not made a few slight alterations on the ending, on who gets off the normandy, based on who you had with you in that mission.
If you had Liara and Garrus, logically they should not step out of the ship. fact that they did shows a problem to me. Same with other characters.
As for the catalyst itself..well you explained that perfectly.
for the rest, I have zero issues with the endings, other then the colors. even the destruction of the mass relays is told to you and why it happens.

Very sound and a nice list. Bump.

Great list! I agree on every point. And considering the game was about choice, the glaring item missing off the list is the atrocious treatment of most of the LIs/characters from ME2!
Go to any of the ME2 character threads (with the exception of Garrus, and perhaps Tali) but most people are not impressed with how these LIs were handled - even if you didn't romance them!
Fix this as well - one giant expansion pack for all the ME2 characters!
IT'S HERE - HERE HERE HERE! TAKE BACK THE LOVE!

Very comprehensive. I'm impressed, good job. To be honest I'd be fine with most of the ending if the indoctrination theory holds true, however the lack of closure...*inhales deeply*... problematic...

Aye, I posted this thread up earlier in the discussion. He really goes into the writing and mistakes done (from a technical stand point) that probably caused our grievence and explains even why it causes them.arisian wrote...

Hi guys! Sorry I've been a bit scarce, but there's a bug running rampant in my system and I need to get it cleared out before I have to leave for my big interview on Sunday. XD I promise I'll get to updating the OP sometime tonight, but for now it's naps and lots of water. Lol.
Keep it classy, y'all.

Superb article.
I wish there were more reviewers like this that had the balls to be honest.

Comments on the bottom say that Casey said "Not just an A,B,C thing"...
I'm now convinced the reviewers played a different version of the game.
