Marauder Shields death. You can just sense the agony he is feeling when he realizes that he has failed to stop you from having to endure such a crappy ending.

My second play through, I just couldn't pull that trigger... Shep took one for the team.

1. Shepard picking himself up at the end when it didn't work crawling forward saying 'What do you need me to do' broken and smashed but still crawling forward with his "what do you need me to do". I loved him most then.

2. Mordin saying "would have liked to run tests on seashells." He cracked me up in ME2 and ME3. A good death for him but still sad.

Thanes Death/ Andersons/ Legions, bloody devastating, my 3 favourite characters, mordin was a close second, earth goodbyes bugged out on me, so I didnt get the LI goodbye

[dfstone]

I think the little boy getting killed at the beginning was the saddest. Especially since you tried to save him.

[ApuLunas]

losing dr. mordin solus.

[Ossborn76]

The saddest moment was, when I heard 2 NPC on the Citadel talked about "that redhead girl, who was executed by Cerberus"... Kelly Chambers...

Oh, and I know, you wanted to exclude it, but I can´t resist: the ending!!!

[Sharrack]

Mordins death, with him singing. That scene is just too powerful.

This - Legion in my PT was a close second.

I refuse to believe that Thane is dead,  otherwise my Shep would be raging on the galaxy, so not counting it.

Tali's suicide, hands down. For those of you who have just seen it on youtube but never actually played through siding with the Geth there's a lot of aftermath back on the Normandy too with crew conversations. Joker/Garrus say some pretty interesting/emotional things post-Tali death.

Shooting Mordin in the back. Then shooting Wrex in the face.

Did I help Shepard?

For me... Thane... Firstly because i was sat there... one of my favourite characters on his death bed... son reading a prayer... Shep joining in... controller practically rattling in my hands... then... then... the bloody phone rang... some moron down stairs chose THAT MOMENT to call me on the cordless phone. Ruined the atmosphere... I saw what happened and i was Raging... i was LIVID. I had been expecting that moment since i found out he was due to check out in ME2... and i was robbed.

then there is Kaidan getting knocked in by Eva... or whatever she was called before EDI looted her body. Love EDI.

then the big speech at the end... that was very touching. Saying goodbye to Kaidan... to the crew...

but the worst part was the ending...when shep just chooses and faces his seeming demise... I am on the dream band wagon... it all points to that, for me anyway, i know theres alot of people who have picked it apart but i think there is more to it. Destroying the reapers and waking up in the rubble... continue with DLC... come on... there's an act 4 coming. But thats not the point of this post.
It was how he just went for it... got assimilated, or blown up or disintigrated and he held on... and didn't let go...
SHEPARD IS MY HERO AND I WATCHED HIM DIE...
So emotional, i was mourning him for days until i saw the bonus ending...

[fish of doom]

charr's poem, partly due to not realizing who the character was until the recording started playing, followed by the poem itself.

legion's death in the peaceful resolution, however, was much more emotionally charged for me, simply because of realizing the sheer magnitude of what my shepard had just done.

[pablosplinter]

The whole end to the Quarina/Geth plotline. Every part of it.

Legion's sacrifice, his convo with Tali, Tali taking her mask off even of you never saw her face. All of it.

[Greed1914]

Thinking I had gotten Grunt killed (I really appreciated that  loyalty still counted, Good job on that, Bioware!)

Mordin's death (Loved the character, but appreciated seeing him content in the end)

Thane's death (praying for Shepard when he was the one dying is pretty heavy)

Legion's death (using his newfound individuality to help his people)

Saying goodbye to squad (Between my bro, Garrus, and my LI, Tali it was almost too much)



Those were what I'd call the good kind of sad, it was emotional for the right reasons.


Then there is the sadness of knowing that it ended in such a way where it did exaclty what we were told it wouldn't do (A/B/B) and realizing that my crew was stranded.  That's not a hopeful ending!

That is what I'd call sadness borne of disappointment.  

[SharlenaSharlena]

Anderson's ending made me cry, I really thought we were gonna make it through all this together. That broke my heart. Mordin's death caught me off guard, so disappointed.

[TERASQUE]

The part when you tell everyone goodbye, I got a hunch that Shepard would die but I didnt want to believe it, I cried thou. P.S. Goodbye to Garrus and LI-Ash was the toughest... Also the goodbyes in by the phone was tough. Very nice put together by Bioware I must say!

And damn; "Mordin: I wished I couldve studied those shellfish..." -> tears!!!

 Tali's suicide/destruction of Quarian race/Legion's death, if you chose to side with the Geth. Won't be doing that again! I don't think my heart can take it! I was never so emotionally distraught at a video game moment as I was at that moment! :crying:

Hahah, yes!.  How could this be left off the list!.
I have to admit I was horrified.  It was emotional shock that hit like being kicked in the face by a horse!.
For 48 hours I was walking around in grief shaking my head in shame at what I'd done.

[Warhawk7137]

1a. Mordin's death
1b. Legion's death
3. Anderson's death
4. Thane's death
5. Choosing to rescue Admiral Koris and watching his reaction as he realizes that by rescuing him, his crew has died, and all this in a war he and the Civilian Fleet never wanted in the first place.
6. Garrus and Shepard remembering Ashley/Kaidan (whichever one died) at the memorial ("This was his/her fight too.")
7. Fall of Thessia. BioWare did some wonderful things with Shepard's facial animations on that one.

[Kami102]

Anderson's death got me really badly, to the point where I just had to stop and walk away to calm down.

To go from such an adrenaline high as you're charging for the Beacon, to be at rock bottom as you watch Anderson drift in and out of conciousness, and your Shepard bleeding to death, stumbling foward, trying to activate the cruicible got me real bad.

I came really close to restarting the game at that point to tell her to change her identity.  Then it turns out it wouldn't matter because she would have died when the Reapers took the citadel anyway. 

[HurricaneGinger]

Shepard is battered and broken, wanting nothing more than to sit and relax for once...and yet she/he jumps the gun when Hackett contacts them.

"What do you need me to do?"

That just killed me.

As well as this Thane's prayer to Shepard:

"Guide this one where the traveler never tires, the lover never leaves, the hungry never starve."

And Mordin's death, and Legion's. When I thought Grunt died, I just about lost it. My Shepards see Grunt as their child - that small moment when Shepard and Grunt look at eachother before he throws himself at the Rachni...damn.

Then there was Garrus telling my Shepard they should try for a turian-human baby...

[heinoMK2]

I was holding up pretty well through the whole game. Most deaths left me with a "oh well..." reaction - until the London part, where you talk to your team mates for the last time.

As you go through the camp you will encounter a radio signal from some civilian woman trying to save a soldier who lost his leg and a lot of blood, too. She manages to stop the bleeding with the help she gets over the radio, but the soldier dies anyway. And then a reaper lands on top of her position, which ends in her killing herself because she does not want to be turned into a husk.
The whole progression from gaining hope after the man on the radio calms her down, to slight glimmer of happiness after she managed to stabilize the soldier to final, into absolute hopelessness facing the Reaper was pretty grave.

It did not stop there though. The scene where Shepard tries to reach the console on the Citadel and his/her body finally gives in and fails was until then the single most horrifying and sad moment until then by far. I was basically going "no... no. no! NO!" in my head during that scene.

And that was still topped by the ending(have chosen the "prefect" one), after the mass relay explosions light up though the whole galaxy. You see the scale of them and suddenly realize that after all the sacrifices that had to be made to stop the Reapers - who top every atrocity ever made by worst of the intelligent organic forms in scale and depth - your decision results in BILLIONS more deaths and ends the galactic civilization as it was known until then.

A very bitter pyrrhic "victory". Apparently, there was never a chance to "win".



Also, it is very sad Bioware just went and flat out killed the entire setting they have been building up with the Mass Effect series for all those years in a span of about 10 minutes.
