I just hope whatever this DLC is, it comes out before September.

what happens in September?

I'll be at MCT for the Marines. And the whole time I'll get to think about this whole DLC stuff. Which is why I hope they announce something for early August. 

oh.. well here's to hoping that we'll get something sooner rather then later.

Definitely. I'm really hoping we'll get some solid news on what's going on at PAX. I think some dev said something on their twitter about talking about the whole DLC thing this weekend.

Here's to hoping we get something.

Short of announcing an Alternative Endings (plural) pack DLC, i do not see how they can "fix" ME3. 

If all they are going to do is "clarify" the ending, we'll still have exploding Mass Relays, Shepard still is dead, especially if you do not want to stab EDI and the Geth in their backs, and Your love interest goes on to make babies with someone else, or die a horrible death.

Re-write the ending or at least put in new ones.

I posted a link to an interview with Jennifer Hale a few pages back in which she said she hasn't been asked to do more VO work for Mass Effect yet. But I had a thought, maybe all the VO work for whatever Bio is planning was done along with the main game.

You see... can this truly all be EA's fault? Is Bioware such a moronic slave to their will? Because what I don't get is that there obviously hadn't been an important Bioware guy saying "No. Just... No. Sorry EA but we are not gonna ram our stick up our customers their arses. We just won't.".

Maybe they did, but all signs tell me that Bioware was completely supporting their own crapf*ck ending... all the while caressing the veiny surface of their beating, holy "artistic integrity".

Well, if our worst fears were true, and the ending looks the way it does because they just clumsily attached it to the rest of the game in a rushed effort to keep their intended publishing date... then the ones calling the shots there are to blame.
I don't know how EA runs its affairs, or just how much autonomy the Bioware team enjoys, but I would not expect them to publicly denounce their superiors: it would be honest, but very bad for business - and in today's mercenary cultural climate, the numbers are all that counts.

When entertainment becomes an industry, you can no longer expect idealism.

Good thinking!  I had the very same thought. (And do keep in mind that long before this controversy started, it was perfectly clear that there would be further DLC: I doubt that Commander Shepard won't be featured in any of that, and thus suspect that Jennifer Hale is contractually bound not to give anything away.)

bioware made statements that directly contradict the ending they gave us, and i dont know about anyone else, but holding ppl to there word is not whining to me, if bioware had said there would be an A, B, or C ending i would have accepted that, if they had said choices didnt matter in the end both in and outside of the game, then i could have accepted that, even if they hadnt said anything then i could have accepted that, but what they said was at the very least misleading, and at worst outright lying, if this were a toy that said on the box, if you pull the string it will talk, and then you buy it and it doesnt talk, im sure the ppl who bought that toy would want to exchange it for one that talks, thats what we want, the endings that talks, the ending that they have been boasting about in the past five years, the one that made me want to play the game, the one that made me want to buy the game in the first place

this is just an example of ending i created to show how multiple endings could work, these could be replaced by anyones ideas, these are mine

saved rachni+let council die or saved council (i.e. did not kill cousel)+played paragon = good ending + shepard dies

saved rachni+ cured genophage+saved council+played paragon+ME3 beaten on previous playerthrough = best ending + shepard dies

saved rachni+let council die+played paragon+ME3 beaten on previous playerthrough = good ending + shepard lives

saved rachni+saved council+saved council+played renagade = moderate ending + shepard survived

saved rachni+saved council+cured genophage+played renagade+ME3 beaten on previous playerthrough = moderate ending + shepard survived+shepard takes control as leader of universe+causes massive unversal civil war between shepard and council (shepard forces = krogan, geth, quarian, human, and rachnii) vs (coucil forces = turrian, salarian, asari, batarian, drell, and all other minor races)

killed rachni+killed council+killed council+played renagade = reapers win (everyone dies)

killed rachni+killed council+killed council+played renagade+ME3 beaten on previous playerthrough = reapers win+ reapers leave shepard alive for his defiance and he is forced to live with the fact that he failed the universe and everyone else died

saved reaper base+killed council+played renagade = illusive man takes control of reapers+ becomes dictator of the universe (i.e. bad ending)

saved reaper base+killed council+played renagade+ME3 beaten on previous playerthrough = shepard takes control of reapers+ becomes dictator of the universe (i.e. bad ending)

Romance endings (if both shepard and his romance survived) (i dont know about male romances, but this is just a guide)

if shepard survives and has had 2 or less romances then he will end with his ME3 romance, if he has had 3 different romances then he will become a womenizer if any one of the three was an alien then he will retire as a womenizer on the citadil, if all three were human then he will retire as a womenizer on earth

if tali is the ending romance then they will move in together on either earth, citadil or rannoch, (she will push for rannoch but will agree to be with shepard either way)

if liara is the ending romance they will either move to earth, citadil, thessia, or they will both become shadow brooker

if ending romance is ashley then they will retire to earth

if ending romance is miranda then you move in with her and her sister on earth

if ending romance is jack then you can continue at the biotic school (now one the citidal), or hunt down any remaining traces of cerubrus

if ending romance is other human (kelly, alvers, ...) then retire to earth

if shepard had no romances in any of the games, then he can choose to live out his life with samara and her daughter, or in the shadows with kasumi, or on zhu's hope with shiala, or on omega with aria

if shepard becomes dictator his romance option will lead the resistance against him

if illusive man becomes dictator shepard has choice of either being his second in command or leading resistance against him, if shepard is second in command then romance option will lead resistance, if shepard leads resistance his romance option will be shepard's second in command

if shepard causes civil war and is not the leader of the anti-council army, then his romance option will stay with him

if shepard causes civil war and is the leader of the anti-council army, his romance option may stay with him or may not (Tali, Jack, Miranda, always stay, liara will stay if shepard's paragon score is high enough, all other dont stay with shepard)

This would have been cool and exciting to see in the end of the game.  I was just hoping for an ending on par with ChronoTrigger, but ChronoTrigger's endings blow ME3's out of the water.

I thought about it as well but she sounds like she is really dissapointed about the ending as well.

[Jassu1979]

Another small detail that supports the idea that it's Harbinger's attempt at turning Shepard into a thrall:

The hologram (which oddly resembles the boy you saw dying on earth, another potential hint that all of this takes place in your mind) announces that choosing the destroy option will not only leave the issue unresolved, but also kill the geth, EDI and even - you guessed it - yourself on account of your numerous cybernetic implants. It exerts quite an effort to make this option as unappealing as possible, hinting at genocide and unneccessary death as well as your own demise.

And yet, this is the ONLY ending that shows Shepard waking up in a pile of rubble: a turn of events that is not only well-nigh impossible if everything we saw before is true (for nobody could survive the Citadel's destruction, let alone - as some have suggested - re-entry into the earth's atmosphere), but also contradicts everything the hologram said.

You read quite a lot into what she's saying there. Look at it again: all she's saying is that she can't quite face the fact that the trilogy is over, and there will be no Commander Shepard for her to voice any longer. It's the kind of thing you'd expect an actor to say after spending much time on being part of an amazing project stretching over several years, and then finally seeing it all come to an end.

It's as noncommittal as it can be, voicing neither approval nor disapproval with regards to the actual ending, but rhapsodizing about the difficult process of letting go of a beloved project that has come to a conclusion.

Indeed, a 'keep it zipped' clause is probably in place for anyone who knows anything.

It is probably the same as making a movie. A lot of lines read but a lot of scenes are cut out. Imagine the dissapointment when u watch in horror of the ending lines are all missing axept the one u drew breath

Until the ending, I had a strong feeling that I was just going to buy all the DLC for the first two games and any future DLC for the third and replay the series from the start.  Again.  After the ending, I just didn't care anymore, after coming to terms with how terrible it was.  As it is, I'm pondering just leaving the game in the past and ignoring any and all future DLC, despite how good the rest is.   This is actually incredibly sad, for the only game I've ever pre-ordered and had so much fun with for the entire game up to the ending.  Either way, I'll stick around until the next announcement, and then, we'll see.

This is exactly what I felt too. This is exactly what the Corporation needs to see too - thats where money comes in. Money gets corporate people acting.

Just received an e-mail from EA play our newest game!!!!

A big F*!£^* off EA thats what I say

[Mattalix]

 Im not so sure you are listening Bioware, or else you wouldn't throw words such as "Clarify" around. Noone that hated the ending wants it to be "clarified", we want something else, something without plot holes, something that incorporates some of our choices into the end outcome, something that will stand the test of time.

[Sun Tzglyph]

The point, whatever the truth will be, that is irrefutable, is indeed this one. No one, no one, could survive all the events and forces applied to the body following the "destroy" decision.
Shepard survives.
Therefore, the last citadel sequence, galactic explosions etc... did NOT happen.
And i can't believe some people still believe that all this ending was not done on purpose, so there can be a sequel of some kind.
It's not a "good" ending, because it is NOT an ending.
And they got me, too, at first, I chose "Synthesis" for lack of any other choice, fell into the trap of not wanting the geth to die and let legion's sacrifice be for nothing.
But i didn't yell, i was just shocked, like when i come out of a tragedy on stage or in the public (i'm a theater actor). Because a tragedy is just that : the characters make a lot of choices, they hope, they try, they make a lot of good and bad decisions, and you would think they can affect their fate... and no, they can't. So we experienced, thanks to Bioware, a tragic ending. All our choices, all that we thought would matter and create differente possibililities, all that we thought would tell us that, WE, MATTER, WE, EXIST ! ... was all for nothing... like in all good tragedies. Because at the end, there is only death, and the rest is silence.
Except... not. Because it wasn't necessarily the end, yet.

Not true. If the clarification is that the IT is correct (which all signs point to it being), then the Mass Effect Relays are not blown up, the war is still going on in real time, and Shepard may or may not be indoctrinated depending on your choice.

Following and agreeing with your logic, it still wasn't necessary for Bioware to defend that abomination so strongly with their adamant statement about artistic integrity.

Argh the thing that pisses me off most about the ending is the fact that I want to replay Mass Effect.... but I can't.

 Let's start with Cronos Station: Cerberus HQ. the Prothean VI said that the Catalyst, Crucible would use dark energy to make a FREQUENCY to destroy the Reapers and Mass Relay's. Now for the beam hitting Shepard if you listen to the radio they call a retreat, because they think Shepard dies, they lost all hope. The boy on Catalyst was a VI of the Catalyst not god. As for the  three choices. Green Syntheis, Blue control them, the boy/VI said that Shepard will DIE the Red choice, the boy/VI said he will be destroyed, the Reapers, the Mass Relay's and all Synesthic life. On Thessia: The Temple Of Athame, when you first meet the Prothean VI it said that their was great civilization before the Prothean people who made the Reapers. Maybe their in dark space making more Reapers. So I think their will be a Mass Effect 4! And Shepard will be in it, but now he will be a Captain or Admiral, he's a legend now!

Still here huh? Was talking with a friend today about the game and we have differing opinions on the ending. But we both agree that changing it is wrong. Sure adding more options is a more honest way to please the fan base (not just the rage trolls). Also a epilogue till they can male more choices. They don't have to keep shepard alive or save the relays as long as they explain why they did it.

If the indoctrination theory was biowares intention (linked above), then the game isn't finished and must be continued when shepard wakes up. this theory answers all the questions that people have and covers the loop holes. I myself have been converted to believing this theory as it makes sense, whereas the ending being real doesn't at all. if bioware actually reveal this was their intention then that is some creative but loco writing right there. I like it!.. will always be waiting for full closure and multiple endings as promised though.

If the Indoctrination theory turns out to be true then all that really means is that Bioware cut the conclusion to the game so they could sell it to us. Its not clever, its not some genius move. It just show that Bioware have very little regard for their fans or their Game, because to put out a game with such a broken end, knowing that fans/customers will buy it in good faith and turn around and sell them the real end, while pulling the Artistic Integrity card to try and slience complints, its just wrong.

The InDOC theory sounds good but the fans/customers lose if Bioware try to pass all this off as some brilliant plan, because it means they sold an incomplete game. The game could have ended with a well thought out end that takes account of players choices and their hard work and Bioware still could have put out DLC to add more side story or even add a mission that has the last of the reapers trying a last ditch attempt to destory everthing and all would have been good, but they didnt do that instead we have this mess.

Glad someone here gets why the Indoctrination Theory is a load of crap if true. 

It would have been brilliant if Shepherd had gotten up and continued the fight in-game, but selling us the ending?  No thanks, BioWare.  You do that, and not only will I never buy another BioWare product or DLC item, but I will do my best to make sure no one I know does either, and I will never buy another EA product, because we all know they'd be behind it.

bellow has a point, I swear.

long long time ago, I used to work for this small parmacy chain, called Thriftway.  I was in college for a pharm degree, and working part time to both suplement my education, as well as get some real world experience (essentialy I performed a role of pharm tech).  i loved it.  my particular store was located in a part of Bronx that... wasn't all that nice, but i still loved my job, I loved the people I was working  with, everything.  and then...  our small family owned chain was sold to CVS pharmacy (in case you don't live in US, they are big.  very big)  and somehow... despite it all being the same exact people working and very few things changing, visibly...the atmosphere in a store became opressive.  those few rule changes, the tone coming from above omehow managed to turn that store from a great place to work for, to a place I (and a few other people, including our awesome store manager) quit as soon as it was possible. (eventualy I also changed my major, but that's neither here, nor there)

I was watching a new video by the author of "understated nerd rage" and suddenly - it hit me.  this is what has become of bioware.   just like that pharmacy I used to work for, they were changed.  not forcefuly, not because they may have been told directly "write this way"  but becasue of deadlines, because EA wants to make hits, in a specific time frame, and becasue their corporate culture is different in tone from what it makes to make awesome RPG's.

I do genuinely beleive that everyone on a team is trying to do thier best.  Even Casey.  I guess I just wish and hope that .. I don't even know what I'm hoping for anymore, becasue I'm not sure how much change could happen, while EA is still technicaly at the helm.

and yes, btw, Shepard=Jesus, Shepard must die, bugs the hell out of me.  yes I'm one of those "happy ending"  people.  I've yet to have a good explanation from ANYONE why its a wrong thing to want from a Mass Effect game.

The sad part is that, if the Indoc Theory actually happend as part of the retail game it would have been great.
Like the game strings the player along, makes the player go through all the emotions we have right now. The screen stays black for a minutes after the credits have finished then bam, a team mate or your love interests voice tells shep to get the hell up, the fights not done, sheps work is not done then the screen lights up with sheps team is by his/her side and one of them says we finish this fight together or not at all. Then the final push takes place.

If what I wrote above had happend and it was all on the disc, Mass Effect 3 and Bioware would be legends right now, but instead we have this mess and the possability that it was all done to sell us the real ending. Sad times

And BTW if the player has done bloody everything, full paragon and all that, then they have the right to a happy ending. Its a game after all and real life grit dosent need to aply all the time.

Hated the ending to BioWare intergalactic epic Mass Effect 3? A potential remedy is arriving this summer. The video game studio and publisher Electronic Arts have announced Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut, a free download that "will give fans seeking further clarity to the ending of Mass Effect 3 deeper insights into how their personal journey concludes."It will be available this summer for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Actually I think this was probalby the only solution. I also accept it. Now they can fix what they rushed and not look like they are giving in or selling out...although I think they did that already with the current ending.

As long as it's free I'm satified with their attempt on this. Hopefully the feedback that has been given helps them give us a better product.

You took the words right outa brain and hit it on the nail, also is it possible that on earth when the boy is at the shuttles that the Reaper that could have attacked at any time might have been Harbinger and noticed Shepards reaction to the child and after the child died, decided to use that against Shepard.

Also for every comment we make on how bad the ending is that on Twitter or Facebook we see people congratulating Bioware on an awsome ending that felt very satisfing and to not listen to us the minority <I like that were the minority> and to leave the endings the way they are and not to give in to the pressure to add or change the ending.

[sinlessorrow]

I loved the game but the ending was just bad.

Why was the normandy running from the fight?
Why do you see shep breathe if you destroy the reapers, despite the fact that the god child tells you it will kill you?
Why is joker and my love interest so happy when they land on a new planet? They should be sad im dead!!!
How did my squad end up on the normandy in the first place? Last i checked they were by my side on earth?
Its the end of all life forms and the normandy, and all my squad(despite the fact they were on earth with me just minutes earlier) are running from thefight? The same people who assaulted a collector base without a second though? Cmon really, you want me to believe they would run now, while im on earth trying to save the galaxy?

Those things just dont make sense, the journey though was an excellent ride, and i really liked how the love interest played out, made waiting for ashley worth it.

and I desagree on it being the only solution.  adding more ending options would have been a good solution.  taking indocrination theory and running with it (no I don't believe it was their intention, this is all fans), would have been workable.  expanding existing endings (like for isntance in my own version, linked in my signature)  would have been something I would prefer. but.. it is what it is...

and who knows, maybe if fans for once have attention span longer then that of a puppy and actualy follow through with "I'm not buying anymore stuff from you"  like so many promise... maybe "Broken Steel"  will happen after all.  not that I'm holding my breath >_>
