I guess you missed that later post where I did say it's speculation on my part. Since that's clarified, no need to dwell on it, yes?



Agreed.

As for that last bit, way to just read one line and not the rest of the paragraph. If I as a gamer wanted to feel ****ty, I don't have to pay $80.00 for a game to do that. I'll just volunteer to work with social services dealing with broken homes and children from said homes. Which, is rather funny really, since every once in a while, you get a case so screwed up, you'd think the child is a lost cause but his (or her) determination helps dig that child out of poverty and you go "booooyeahhh!" So, even in "real life" even when things are dire, sometimes, things end well.


Of course they do, plenty of times as a matter of fact. My question is why you are claiming that there is no such possible outcome in ME3, because, if you make the "right" choices, it is. 

Archonsg wrote...That was what I personally wanted for Shepard. Its a game. The world already has enough depressing situations, do we really to pay for a game that takes all hope of winning, of over coming the odds to stand tall and victorious?

I don't.

And neither should anyone else.

Just add in more choices. Those happy with the current ending, good for you. The rest of us would want a chance to fight the Reapers, win, retire with our love interest. Is that too much to ask?


It's not a "all is good and fine" Happy ending, and that is imho good,
but you can make your Shepard, your LI your squad mates and most
important, the galaxy, survive. As I stated before, the endings are poor delivered, but there
is not just one, bad ending. It's just not true.

yup I'd love for the ending to come from what I did and how everything I did count and gave me a feeling of accomplishment then other failure I mean until some of the plotholes are fixed and for our actions to matter I just don't see the point in playing single player anymore which is a shame because this has been a single player rpg sci fi shooter so for the final bit of the single player to be so damaged that it makes you not want to replay the game again then that down right kinda sucks I mean I love that they added multiplayer and allow us to play as other races and stuff and even the new dlc is fun but I wanted to love the whole game not half of it.....

espically since this was the tale of the incrediable hero shepard he or she never gave up in the face of danger and always looked for another way so what happened shepard just giving up and submitting without fighting back without being the hero that he or she has been in the previous games and all the way up leading to this point I I just no amount of words can explain how disappoint and sheer agony comes from this and it is sad that alot of us have to get some kind of decent ending from fan made endings....

I just want to make one suggestion to you guy's.

Why can't we fight that Reaper shooting at us? I mean the entire game we kept killing those smaller reapers. Why couldn't Soverin have been the last boss and your using the armies you gathered together to take him out. I mean the setup was just like how you used the last Boss fights but instead no one attack's the Reapers you simply run at the Glowing beam with no cover or anyone shooting at the Reaper to distract it.

That rush just made no sence any way especially with how many people are in that push.

Also why couldn't you be fighting aside Alliance Marines and have them keep dying about 2 seconds after you arrive. Even when their are no enemies around.. It's just now very believable. It would make better sense and more realistic if the Alliance Marines your with are actually capable of giving your squad help and even survive.

The last real reaper boss fight is Marauder Shields. Pretty much sums things up. Even the TIM fight isn't such a fight. You'd think with what they did to all those Turians and Batarians and stuff that TIM would have really been some kind of truly warped thing that you have to fight before once again finding some bit of humanity.

In the end, the upgrades to the Normandy meant nothing-never got to use them. All the stuff you obtain is for war assets.

I don't mind the current endings as long as there are other possibilities as well
I mean a lot more... Don't care how long it takes... I'll just play multiplayer for a bit... And pop in some Easter Eggs

On another note: I wrote a poem!  I doubt creating an "I wrote a poem bashing ME3" topic would go over well with the Priest, so I'm just putting it here and in one other topic.  I ripped the meter off from "Trees", but here 'tis.

I think that I shall never see
An ending worse than Mass Effect 3.

A story with such an epic view
Where Shepard stood for me or you.

This world which once gave varied choice
With this 'end' strips a player's voice.

A franchise which asked for many plays
Now ends confused, a sad malaise.

Characters, questions, brushed aside
And silence fails to stem the tide.

"How did this pass?" cry out the throng
That it could have ended up so wrong.

I have played first two games with 4 different characters just to explore everything in this amazing series. The backgrounds, classes and choices made every game different.

Mass Effect 3 was brilliant. I remember the moment I realized I had just doomed the quarian race... It felt terrible, but I could only blame myself.

The last 10 minutes of the game ruined everything, I can't make myself try it with my other 3 characters... I don't need a happy ending, just an ending that makes sense. And to have the last sentence in a 150h journey tell me I have to buy a dlc...

This video explains why the ending doesn't make sense:

You don't have to change anything, but I won't touch the ME-series again until you do.

ghahaha, that picture xD couldn't help but read it in his voice.

as for the ending.

It's the lack of choice, plot-holes and no visible representation of your war-efforts that do it for me. I'd love to have several scenes of your war assets in action

The whole Mass Effect experience is the best multimedia experience one can buy with money. It's better then watching a movie and it's better then watching a serie. Mass Effect part 1 is best the game ever created. I like it even better then Half-Life 2 which is also one of my all time favorites. If you would ask me what my favorite part was... I couldn't say. I just love the whole setting and the whole lore. I even read the books written by Drew Karpyshyn.

You gus have never disappointed me. I even LOVED Dragon Age 2. Ok; I missed some gameplay from part 1 but I liked the setting and the whole story. I love you guys and I will keep buying what you have coming for us.

But boy... did you disappoint me with the ending of Mass Effect 3... I still can't believe it.

If you're open to artistic interpretation, give this theory a chance. It certainly helped me find closure for my ending... Or at least until the new DLC arrives.

Awful, filled with logical holes, misses the entire point of many arguments, and is predicated entirely on the (false) belief that Indoctrination Theory is true.

There is no closure or even rational thought to be found from that link.

Hoping the extended cut will plug some of those holes the ending left..... but it still leaves me with one question. How are you going to fix the godchild saying that machines will always destroy organics? In my paragon runthough I proved his statment false yet it is presented as a fact I am not allowed to dispute. In my renegade runthrough it is true becase I pretty much killed anything and everything that looked at my Shepard funny.

Surely for a an ending that is picking up on the reported 1000 variables programing dialogue to match my journey through the trilogy is possible. You done it through 3 games. Why not the end........ Unless ME4 needs a broken universe backdrop to tell the story.

rumor had it that the next Mass Effect project was gonna be an MMO
although, with SWTOR failing as we speak after 200MILLION dollars down the drain
and now this horrible ending fiasco .... i just dont think we will ever see more Mass Effect aside from the current multiplayer and whatever DLC they cobbled together from the stripped content they pulled out of the game pre-retail :(

also, with Bioware under pressure from EA to meet the bottom line and EA itself facing financial troubles despite a mark of profit over 2 BILLION dollars strong, i'd say both developer and publisher are gonna go the way of the dodo ... and we will simply have to wait for the NEXT great epic and pray to whatever fickle gods are left waiting idle by the windowsill that come the day, they will get things right where Bioware so depressingly failed us ... what a waste .... such a pitiable tragedy ... i think i need a moment :(

While you are entitled to your opinion, i'll have to respectfully disagree with you. The link shows that there is convincing evidence that the Indoctrination Theory is true; or do you simply believe that Bioware just left a bunch of plot holes (such as Shepards squadmates exiting the Normandy in the ending cinematic when they were supposed to be on Earth) in a story that they've been working on for nearly a decade? 



There is evidence, however, you seem to be too angry at Bioware to see it.  ^

Lol, I'm pretty sure we won't see EA or BW going the way of the dodo yet. According to a sales report they might actually make 5million sales of ME3 in the next few months. That would be around $350 million to them. Even though their hardcore fan base (us) are displeased with the ending only a few hundred thousand of us are verbal about it. A drop in the ocean unfortunately to make a major difference to their business practices. 

Theres no way a ME4 won't hit the shelves in a few years time.

Bioware you may or may not be listening but you sure seem to fail at communicating.
