so after the release, everyone was complaining about the endings, Bioware mainly kept silent, but Mike Gamble kind of hinted at  their plans

then all sorts of speculations regarding the endings came alive, with the indoctrination being the most popular. Then Casey finally tweeted and apparently, he likes the feedback...from the looks of the forums, its nothing but the endings.

I know Im being too optimistic, but what if Bioware wanted us to figure it out all along,as a test alongside with Shepard, then surprise us or congraduate us with the real ending as a reward for figuring the end out.

You must be joking!! "the indoctrination being the most popular"??? We want a good ending, the one with Shepard alive and be able to have a new life and new begginning with his loved ones.

Which he can get after he wakes up from attempted indoctrination... yeah?

Was there a endgame save like in ME1&2?

[Godlysnack]

so lets look at it this way.. if they did plan on the new endings coming out as dlc.. would we really be better off having to pay bioware for something that should of been there in the first place?? lots of speculation was that they had planned on it from the beginning due to a tweet about "if they knew what we had planned they'll keep their game forever"...

definitely, we're still missing an epic showdown with harbinger. Would be a sick battle, shepard is injured so idk how he'll beat him physically (he's bigger than a skyscraper), but he also has to battle him mentally due to the indoctrination factor. Mind tricks and what-not *Dark Shepard?*, or how about evil doppelgangers of your squad, perhaps flashbacks to scenes where you lost team members (with harbinger's own sick twist of course). Shep's eyes could go all assuming control also for effect. ah I'm just brainstorming here

I find it bizarre that so many people think that the indoctrination theory = bad end.
Have they not read through? It's quite clear that the indoctrination theory holds the hope that Shepard breaks free of it and goes on to fight the Reapers. In fact, that's the whole point of it as opposed to the current endings where Shepard becomes another Saren.

Either Casey is in the dark or it is damage control (by ignoring it).

I can't see anything from Hudson and not be intensely skeptical.

He tends towards Jedi truths.

 I believe in the indoctrination theory it makes the most sense even when the catalyst is talking to you you hear maleshep and femsheps voices under the kids. So long as it is for free I will be happy. If I have to pay I will grudgingly be happy.

Yes, there is. Well, sort of.  New Game Plus save.

There's also something called a "Legend Save" which for me was created (or last updated) some hours before the game's conclusion.  I believe it was created or updated shortly after I arrived on Cronos Station, looking back through my saves.  No idea what that one is for.

would almost make it worse because it would basically be bioware saying they had no idea how to finish the game, so they sold us a half assed product and then had us do the work for them by creating the ending.

That or to give us the best ending possible they let the fans write it

[keginkc]

As to the original idea, I can't imagine any company allowing such a flood of negative reactions to persist if they had a solution in hand.  The only situation where I can see that making any semblence of sense (and not a whole lot even then IMO) would be the conspiracy that they wanted to save the 'real' ending for after the final 3/15 release.  But that just seems extremely unlikely.

I want the ending where my shep who sacrificed everything for everyone else his entire life finally gets to go retire somewhere with his alien hottie of choice =/

[AlexMBrennan]

He tends towards Jedi truths.

He's gone beyond that lately. Google ME3 requiem.

Agreed ---that is not bad at all. The lack of closure is the bad, and the fact that none of that even if true is explained as possible  in any way...

We do?

Huh. And here I thought most of us wanted an ending that made sense, even if it still meant death.

[MarchWaltz]

I want an ending to where I can talk to all my crew again, those who survived. Like, hell, DA1, where you can talk to everyone after the blight. That would be awesome.

And after the chat sequence, a proper epilogue detailing what happens x number of years later.

[Gyroscopic_Trout]

Why does this remind me of Fred Savage in the Princess Bride after his grandfather tells him that Wesley's dead and that Humperdink lives?

Theres something called the "LegendSave.pcsav" whatever that means

[Asepsis]

Even while I was playing through the first time I couldn't believe that Shepard was even entertaining the idea that she would listen to the reaper AI kid thing. Then all the endings only let us listen to the thing! I can't think of any reason WHY we would trust the reaper Mama. Indoctrination seems like the only thing that makes Shepard's reaction make sense.

Or maybe it was heavy blood loss and the concussion. I dunno.

[Drihan]

I really (REALLY) hope that BioWare didn't release the worst ending to any game ever created just to look at our feedback. If they had to pull it that far, then the writers were a waste of space anyway. And for the love of all that is holy, I'm sitting here praying to every diety on the planet that someone with the Mass Effect knowledge like Casey Hudson were ****** drunk every single day when he talked with the writers, there is no other way someone with his expertise and knowledge of the franchise could ever let such MASSIVE plot holes make it to the shelves.

I believe it's an autosave that happens right before Cronos.  When the stargazer scene finishes you get transported to a save right before Cronos when you get the "You're a legend for destroying the Reapers (and galactic civilization)!  Buy some DLC!" message.
