I've been polled.

I hope not too many people ask for a "everyone lives, all relays intact, everybody happy and it's shepards birthday" type deal. It's meaningful that we have to sacrifice.

WOW, the number of respondents has quickly exploded. Over 100 new entries in 30 minutes!
The results are starting to feel much more balance and valid. Thanks a lot everyone!

One question I haven't handled very well is the Normandy scene. It seems a lot of people both want to explain it AND remove it. Any advice on how I could rephrase it.

So far Bioware's surest bet would be to address the "What will happen to..." points. All of them. That would make 85% of happy people. Given the quantity of content it would almost have to be in text form, maybe with voiceover.

Not easy in every case however. Say if you have cure the genophage, I don't think anyone at Bioware wants to be in a position of saying: "The Krogan will prosper for a time under Wrex and Eve's leadership, and seemingly overcome their destructive tendencies. But after Wrex dies in a hunting incident, his son Urdnot Mordin will seize power and depose his mother, then launch his people in a campaign of conquest that will drench the galaxy in blood. And it was all your fault. Sucker."

Your decision influenced the Krogan greatly and.. how can I put it... you have given them a second chance as a species. Now its up to them to seize it or continue their cycle of destruction.

So well, with all these "What will happen to...." threads, I wonder just how far you want them to spell things out.

All they have to do imo, is tell what happens after decissions and explain things a bit more.

That's it. Even when they don't do it, I don't mind. Atleast I can speculate on my own what happens.

This is a brilliant thread and I like the OP's level headed attitude towards understanding the positions of both the angered fans and BioWare at this time. 

I just submitted my recommendations.

Absolutely nothing. Keep these armchair writers away from my story.

If these CHANGE THE ENDINGS ZOMFG ITS A SPACE BABY people had it their way everything after ME3 would be back to normal: mass relays, citadel, normandy.

I Shephard's choices to have actually -changed- the galaxy.

I voted. :] But in response to the bold: I was one of the people who voted for both, and in my opinion it was because I need to see it explained or removed. I'd be fine with either option, though I'd rather see it removed. So I agreed with both points, if that makes sense... x_x

As far as explanation goes, at least for me, a quick shot of Wrex and friends rebuilding on Tuchanka or a little ending slide that says the krogan went home and Wrex made good on his promises to focus on rebuilding the homeland rather than getting revenge would be good for me. I don't need an entire biography detailing the rest of his life, but I would like something that tells me all the trouble I went to is in some way paying off.

I suggest that you might consider asking these questions if you haven't already.

"* Do you think the Normandy escape scene needs to be removed?"
"* If you think it should not be removed, do you think it should be explained better?"

Also, I had a minor problem with the question about blowing up EDI and the Geth, which I pointed out in my text responses. I think that some people may misunderstand what the "MUST" or "MUST NOT" responses actually mean in related to the question, "Do not destroy the Geth / EDI in Destruction ending." 

"Must not do not destroy the geth/EDI in destruction ending"? 
Whaaa?

Anyway, great survey.

 This is important: I'd like to know if there is some kind of consensus on this, because this is what determines what bioware CAN actually do about it?

The Bioware people aren't stupid: If they can make a few simple changes to the ending that will satisfy 80% of people, they probably will.

If no matter what they change it will only satisfy 20-30% at best, or if they have to rewrite the whole game, well, they probably will just give up.

So here's the poll. I'm trying to be as fine-grained as possible here, so if you suggest new options I'll add them too.

Be honest, be realistic, don't submit multiple times it won't achieve anything.

And here's the summary of responses.

I would rewrite the existing ending to be the worst possible ending, but at least make a bit of sense (like Shepard orders Joker to take the fleet to a safe distance cuz he doesn't know wtf will happen when he activates the Crucible).  After that I would include an option that if you've saved both the Geth and the Quarians, and EDI and Tali are both alive, that you radio the Normandy and get the combined might of the most brilliant cybernetic minds in the galaxy hack the living crap out of starchild who is obviously the lead Reaper and overload them all.  Yeah the Citadel would be destroyed, and one of the endings could include Shepard dying on the station (another could have him get rescued)... but at least it's a victory.

This is neat.

The 1 to 5 being backwards confused me.

That data is rather hard to organize mentally though.

For starters I would change ENDING to ENDINGS and offer many different ENDINGS as was promised.
