Actually very well written. Extremely close to our own arguments.

I think that if there is one document I want used to represent the Retake movement, this is it.

Keep this thread alive friends.

Here is mine too that I started an hour or so ago. We need to keep all threads like this with this article alive so Bioware will see.

http://social.biowar...06779/1#9907740

Also included is a link to the FB page that is taking action for the endings.

Aside from a few minor errors in his introduction, this article makes a great manifesto.

The article sums up my feelings as well. In the end I felt unsatisfied with my investment in the ME universe, not because I wanted pony's and rainbows- I had suspected before hitting Earth that it was a one way ticket- but could we not have actually had endings a bit more tailored to how we played through the three games?

The end just felt so out of place and the logic simply made no sense. We use synthetics to kill organics because otherwise organics will build synthetics that will eventually kill the organics... and I've gone cross-eyed.

I guess the one word I can say I've been feeling since I finished the game is: shock.

I don't know what to do with it. My friend and I have been texting each other from accross the country with our progress saying how much we liked this or that or how funny or sad this or that was, but having finished it first, I'm not sure what to expect from his end. Probably the same three words I said at the end that started with a W and a T and an F.

Thanks for sharing the link!  The article sums up the criticisms of the "All Tracks Lead to Page 37" ending pretty well.  And it does so in a concise and calm manner.

Also, loved the "Yo, Dawg."  I mean, this is the Star Child's logic, and Shepherd is putting on his white nikes and drinking the koolaid because "hey, why shouldn't I trust the being that created the reapers and is clearly insane in a 'burn the kittens to save them' sort of way?"

To quote Mozer in another article  ( http://www.gamefront...ffect-3-ending/ )

"I mean really BioWare, it’s Mass Effect, not an M. Night Shyamalan movie, we don’t need a twist at the end."

+1 for excellent article.


Also +1 on bumping this thread to keep it at the top so numerous reposts aren't created. There's no way it would get stickied... <_<

Shameless bumping with no discussion is considered spam hereabouts. Please cut it out.

Sounds like the ending of mass effect 3. Shameless rushing with no explainations on anything.


no poking the mods with sharpened sticks please, I like the ability to comment on articles

Why not? If things stay the way they are I will never return here or buy another Bioware game. Therefore I have no reasons to not speak my mind even towards a mod.


For the current time being, if it does not happen, then yes use all of your poking abilities. :bandit:

Very good.
It may have been possible to add more than five reasons to this article, but even as it is - it iluminates most of what went wrong at ME-3's ending.

Don't just bump. That would give certain people an excuse to simply lock it so it'll go away. "Ah, we told you not to bump!" (Honest question: Do threads that are praising ME3's endings get those bump warnings, or just the ones harshing on the ending?)

Anyway, Subscribe to the thread. Look for a post you can make a meaningful reply to, then reply meaningfully. It can be someone who raises a point you wish you'd thought of, or someone who you feel is busting out a fallacy or sloppy logic.

But don't just bump. Contribute.

Poking & flaming will accomplish nothing aside from giving BioWare an excuse to close this thread,
so please reconsider which side are you on.

Thanks for the link. Best article about ME3 endings.

I wish some people gave up their pride and had the humility of reading it admitting they screwed up.

Guy needs to be prosecuted for plagiarizing my brain.

Seriously took several of my exact thoughts and wrote them down.

On a serious note, LOVED it.

Hammer, meet nail.

I agree.
Don't simply "bump" the topic.
Quote somebody. If you can't think of something to say, tell them you like their avatar.
Just don't say "bump" when you're "bumping" a topic.

Make it a subtle "bump."
Even if it's just a sublte "bump" that seems like it's rambling on.

...So, yeah....
Anyone tell Gamefront about the additional $10k donation yet? :mellow:

I believe they have a second article someone posted in a followup thread about the donations. More assets to the effort. Hold the Line!

Just finished the game and went directly on the forums to see the opinion of the people about the ending...and omg....this is fantastic! I was sure I was alone....AND PLEASE BIOWARE...if ever you make a DLC dont give us a 3 happy disney ending in exchange of our 3 bad endings....we want an ending with an appropriate closure and sense......

BTW can we sue a Compagnie for making false ads of their product?
