I was going to report in, but I'm having trouble deciding what color my code name should contain. I narrowed it down to three choices

to all of you saying that bioware cannot change anything now that the game is out - Broken Steel ring a bell?

That's one game.  Then there was Deus Ex: HR, LA Noire, and a bunch of other games with... unsatisfying endings.  I don't expect any letter writing campaign to have any impact. Sorry.

But this isn't just a game with an unsatisfying ending--it's a series with an unsatisfying ending.

 You people never learn.

EA is a corporation. A corporation's mission is to make money, they have a board of directors.

That board of directors does not care what you have to say, they care how you spend your money.

I'll be participating, and for all of you who say this wont accomplish anything I want to remind you of Operation Rainfall. A large enough group can accomplish something, even in the gaming industry.

I want to politely send Bioware a letter first and foremost thanking them for creating an amazing Universe that has the potential to rival Both Star wars & Star Trek. I love the Mass Effect Series I love 3 most of all up until the ending. I havent felt that disappointed since the Smallville series finale. To be honest If Bioware created Dlc for different Endings I would have no problem Paying for it just so I can End Mass Effect with satifaction. I just wanna fill like my actions had some weight to them weather the end result be good or bad. The is the 1st time I come across a issue in the Mass Effect series that really bothered me. I had a hard time importing over another play through because the though of those ending filled me with dred. I just hope Bioware issue a clear statement on weather or not the are going to release alternate ending Dlc (I dont mind paying just want a better set of endings. I know nothings free in his world you want something you gotta pay for it.)

But of course. That's why I didn't buy the game and decided to wait and see what GAMERS who played it thought, rather than get suckered by those critic scores.

To be fair, I think you should get the game. The game itself is absolutely amazing, and leagues better than ME2 in terms of gameplay. Multiplayer is fun, most of the story is engaging, and it's nice to see so many of your decisions from the last game referenced. It's just the ending is really super bad.

It's actually dull.  The storyline is overly emotive, not clever and doesn't really make any sense (can't say why for spoilers, but I can at least ask what good are infantry against Reapers?!)  The level design is weak and overall it's much less tight than ME2 - your positioning and tactics will barely matter against anything here.

You do get a huge amount of input into stuff affected by previous decisions.  And you do get a much more interesting ship to wander around.  But those improvements are offset by the unbelievably awful side quest implementation - somehow they made scanning even less fun! - and awful, incomprehensible quest log. 

And the running animations at the start!  Oh the horror... =/

[BlackRaven21]

There is some truth in that. But I dont Believe Bioware are just in it for the money. EA maybe the a Coporation after all it about profits. Since there is a huge demand for Alternate endings DLC then that means there a good chance that if they do create and release The Alternate ending DLC then it'll have a price tag on it. No matter how many people refuse to buy it cuz they believe they're entitled to get it free. There will be enough people like me who just want the better ending and will cough up the money for it. If there is a demand for something then theres is money to be made. I dont think Bioware who are known for taking their fans opinions into account would intentionally decide to screw fans over. Its totally possible that they thought that the existing endings were pretty good for rapping things up. (I Disagree but that my opinion). Who know they could haveended it the way they did because they have something interesting up their sleeves for the Mass Effect Universe. (Now before yall start calling me a Bioware fanboy. I 'm just throwing out a few possibilities. I'm looking at things with an opened mind.) I will go on record and say that I am not a fan of those endings. But I'm willing to wait and see what Bioware does about this issue. I hope they will continue to take their fans opinion into account and make an effort to resolve the Mass Effect 3 Ending Issue.

Overely emotive? I disagree. The characters that died, died in a way that was well done. Level design is the same as ME2 imo....

 Again, ME3 has flaws. But that overely emotive story as you like to put it is why I, and many of us, love ME3 story.

 Also I just love the little things they did so well. Talking with your crew at the citadel and just getting to know more about them. Garrus, Cortez, Liara, etc. They really stepped it up with the "little moments" so to speak. 

[Hoki]

The Last Guardian you don't get it, you really don't.

The employees that made mass effect 1 great are still there at Bioware and they are still great. They are not the problem. They would be the ones interested in your silly letter. They don't need convincing that the endings suck. They wrote it, they know.

They were given the order to not let the series die. They don't own the IP, they are employed to write the IP under the direction of those that will not allow Mass Effect to have an ending.

The people responsible for ME3's bad endings will not read your letter, they'll never get your phonecalls, they won't read your posts, and they wouldn't care anyways even if they did.

What they're going to do is ask how many units did we sell? How many people bought the day 1 DLC? How many pathetic people are actually buying and spending origin points on the multiplayer? How many people pre-ordered ME4?

If you do any of these you're basically telling those people "hey great job, mission accomplished, more of the same please".

I'm happy to clarify that comment.

In ME2 you give a nice inspiring speech at the end.  In ME3, you give a nice inspiring speech every second conversation.  By the end of the game, I was afraid to click on anything for the need to spacebar past yet *another* round of 'hey, how are you doing don't worry we're gonna make it somehow'.  That's 'overly emotive'.

One character died heroically in a genuinely moving fashion.  Others were awkwardly sacrificed to the plot-death god for absolutely no discernable reason other than to make the player FEEL something.  That's overly emotive.

In ME2, you get an ending where you've worked hard to get there with the resources to make a difference.  Winning feels cathartic, especially playing on the hardest difficulty levels where small mistakes are heavily punished.  In ME3, everything you do leads up to a point where... other stuff that hasn't even been introduced yet randomly finishes everything with a big explosion of cyber-space-magic.  That's... okay, that's just plain goddamn stupid, it's not emotional at all.  (I was numb right through the last twenty minutes of the game).

Agree to disagree. None of the deaths in my playthrough felt forced. Though I understand what your saying about the ending and what not.

I'll get the game...when they fix the ending.  I'd like to see if they make a press release on what they're going to do about the endings before I play, because if they make a patch, I'd rather download that first because I'm not sure if it'd affect other missions or whatnot. If its a free DLC then yeah, I'd rather wait. I just so happen to know about the endings.

Just make sure after you deal with them up, convince them it was a hallucination.

Okay, I can understand people wanting something along the lines of what was done for Fallout 3 (Broken Steel), but this is a bit crazy? Have we already crossed the "anthrax in the airvents" line?
