Yeah, if the boss fight was just "Harbinger Persuades You" or something I wouldn't have cared.

"hell ill even fight the human reaper thing again"

TIM controlling a reconstructed human reaper could have been a cool boss fight with his magic indoctrination powers.

I never even thought about this... but damn that would have been awesome.

 All in all, despite not really enjoying the ending, I loved the fact,that BW deliberately sidestepped the cliche "giant monster comes out of nowhere, avoid it's pattern attacks and shoot it in the weak spot" ending. I think of games like Arkham Asylum, Halo 3, or numerous others whose narrative impac has been lessened because they tried to shoehorn in a giant boss battle when a simple dialogue exchange would have done the job much better. The fact that they showed restraint in this regard at least demonstrates that they cared, even if you think they totally effed up.

Harbinger is not from nowhere.

Maybe I'm just a 90s kid guy, but I would actually prefer a boss fight.  Besides, the Human Reaper didn't just "show up."  Mass Effect 2 established that the Collectors were harvesting humans to build this Reaper since day 1.  We just didn't find out why they were harvesting humans until we got to their Omega 4 base.

And to it's defense, the fight was similar to the final fight in ME3.  It had lasers too.  The Destroyer Reaper throws random beams at you as well while you fight brutes and banshees.  At least you could stop the Human Reaper from shooting you in the middle of getting flanked by Collectors for a while by getting his health down a certain amount.

IMO I think that some kind of boss fight with Harbinger would've been satisfying after hyping him up so much in ME2.  Even if it was just reaper enemies he decided to take control of and morph into a new form/class.


In the end I don't even care about it.  It would have been cool and all, and it's just a thought, but that would have just made people more frustrated at the space  ending because it would take more work to get there.

I want a psychological final boss fight.

With the Illusive Man.

Not just a "ROFL HIT RENEGADE INTERRUPT TO WIN!" like it currently is. I want like a, "you have to figure out what choices will talk him down" sort of deal. That would make for such an interesting take on a final boss fight. You fight him on the dialogue wheel.

You actually can do this and it's fairly well done.

True, but all that really involves is choosing 1 type of option (Para/Rene) every single time a prompt w/ the Illusive Man comes up. That's not really so much a psychological fight where you have to vary your choices and really strategize what you gotta say: that's more like, OOOH LOOK, A COLOR. LET'S CHOOSE IT!

My issue was not the lack of a boss fight, but the fact that I was really looking forward to destroying Harbinger. I felt like, in this case, a final boss would have been appropriate.

As many have previously said, Marauder Shields.

[Wattoes]

I honestly didn't really care about not having a boss fight. I think people are just really pissed they got godchild.

Im almost glad we didn't get a bossfight now. It created the legend of Marauder Shields, who is honestly probably in my top 5 favorite mass effect characters and he had like 8 seconds of screentime.

I liked both the boss fights from ME1 and 2.

I'm OK without one for ME3, but I would have liked some kind of conflict with Harbinger like Rannoch.

Agreed! I was kinda looking forward to kicking Harbinger's ass! But I will take a thoroughly better ending overall than a forced boss battle.

This just gets more strange - I don't think I*ve seen a many complain that there wasn't a boss fight at the end.
Just that there wasn't an ending as promised.

[Abram730]

Shoot the kid ending missing

[Velesfray]

Marauder Shields Never Forget!

Harbinger. Not even a verbal confrontation. Unforgivable.

This!

I wanted an epic boss fight with Harbinger which tops every fight there was in Mass Effect series.


It is unforgivable as the ending of ME2 and Arrival were both hinting that Harbinger was the one leading the attack.

[L33tBadMofo]

Marauder Shields, may he go down in Stargazer stories for generations to come, tales of how he valiantly fell trying to keep us from *ending* the game... forever rest his huskified soul... *sniffle*


That aside, I am let down that we didn't have that epic throwdown with Harbinger that i have been itching for since the ending of 2/Arrival. All we get is rapid-fire lasers, and limping for 15 minutes to a talkathon with TIM. If we hap proper resolution, then I could have lived without the boss fight, since we would have had an ending to a fantastic trilogy. But without proper closure, the lack of a boss fight just sticks out even more and has the ending feeling more shallow.

QFT.  Anyways there was a forced "out of nowhere" boss battle.  With Marauder Shields.

[huntsman2310]

Would have loved to see the battle culminate with Harbinger being taken out. Not with Shepard by himself but with your whole squad helping.

[crapmonster13]

It didn't matter to me honestly. There could have been a huge final boss or not as long as there was closure.

Oh and Marauder Shields.
