Good luck! I'll be enjoying my second play through on Friday.


Why are you not Red Cherry standing by?


Because I like the ending

I'd like to see any of you try to tailor to every single choice in ME2 based off ME1, which is a hard enough task in itself..... and then deal with the exponentially increased amount of variables carried to ME3. No one has ever undertaken a task like this, and they did a damn good job.


Sorry, what? How'd they do a good job? Most choices boiled down into the exact same scene playing out regardless of your previous choices, the only difference is that a line or two changes and you get an asset number that has little bearing to the rest of the game (OH GOD, CONSEQUENCES!!!11) .

Witcher 2 and even Dragon Age 2 had better importing.


An argument against generalizing comments is futile.

Dialogue is the foundation of the game, and I don't see a problem with that itself adjusting to previous choices.

Maybe you'd care to explain what you would have done differently to cater to every single previous choice?

Who cares about your opinion of the ending? I'm cool with the ending as well. But there was a prime gag opportunity! You take it!

- I wouldn't invalidate previous choices. Killed somebody? They stay dead, shocking statement.

- Don't throw the army you just recruited into a useless number and you never see them again. Rachni offers you underground tunnels underneath London in the finale, those who killed them have to fight above ground. Ect.

ect

Rather than the "didn't I kill you?" line which leads to "oh yeah, lol. i got better!" instead of "oh i remember saving you!" which leads to "hey bro, hows it hanging?".

I don't think the American Revolution ended up in someone's spam folder.

This will be deleted as soon as Bioware wakes up.  If you want to organize "movements" or "statements" towards companies, don't use their own websites to do it.

I see. So you don't understand the complications of this kind of design. Rachni saving/destroying the ONLY factor as to where you play a certain mission? You could say the same about 20 other choices, all leading to different areas and scenarios. While that would be cool, realize that you would be playing Mass Effect 3 in 2016 instead.

Also I have no idea what this "killed someone, they live" nonsense is, that's not happened in 2 playthroughs personally. Maybe try to import the right save.

Then they shouldn't have told us how choice mattered, how it was "our" Shepard and we'd face tough choices and consequences in the series. They shouldn't have hyped the import system at all, only to turn around and railroad everything.

Rachni, for one.

Oh wait, they changed a line in the conversation. That justifies her presence there, totally.

Bottom line: compare Mass Effect 3 to other games out there. Or play the game without importing. So ungrateful for one of the best-executed projects in gaming.

Some people are never happy.

'kay.
Opinion unchanged.

Having read the script a thousand times and watched somebody play without importing, the game barely changes from my hypothetical renegade playthrough. Having watched a paragon playthrough too, it only change a few lines here or there and maybe a conversation.

So ungrateful for one of the best-executed projects in gaming.

This has to be the number one worst thread in the history of the internet. ****ing deal with it, and stop pretending this is some kind of military thing. Man, this is stupid.

Exactly.

People say the game was great save the endings... and that surprises me. The quality in writing was much lower than ME1 and 2. It relied heavily on stereotypes and it definitely forced a lot of things.

Gears of War has better choice and consequence than ME3 and there you simply choose whether to go to path A or path B.

Lol. Ok, grab your sign and resume picketing.

While you're at it, see if you can dedicate some of your valiant efforts towards improving Kraft's cheese powder. Let your voice be heard!

 What I cant figure out is how you guys already beat the game.
I only just got to like the third priority mission. in 20 hours of game play, running around trying to figure out this ridiculous quest manager, and the screwed up citadel quests. Minus the ammo powers still existing, and this quest log that is just terrible compared to ME1 and ME2 I really dont have any complaints about this game.

Somewhere out there, there is a thread about lynching children. That's the worst thread.

EA will not care unless it hits their pockets. I do think bioware would care, but they have to hear ALLOT negative feedback outside these forums... negative's from people who aren't crazy enough to post nerdrage on a forum.

You know they already have your money, right? So...protesting isn't going to do much - at best, they might go out on a limb and sell you a new ending in a few months, but is that any better? The damage has already been done...

No, sir. Citadel's Quit thread was the worst thread in the history of the internet.

SO. MUCH. SWEARING.

He invented new swears I still use today.
