I believe the happy ending should be there as a choice. If we'd have to work harder for it like the "Shepard Lives" ending, then I can live with that...so long as I have the ability to choose a happy ending for my Shepards and their LIs. Those who want the tragic ending can still have it, I have no problem with it. However, there are those who want a happy ending and I believe BioWare should give it to us.

[Coolfaec]

Yeah, why can't we have a happy ending? Is it too "Predictable?" Because tragic endings seem to be the new thing in video games. Yeah, seeing Shepard having some drinks with Garrus, and seeing Tali's home on her home planet, and being swarmed with millions of blue babies is corny, but Commander Shepard deserves a happy ending. After fighting for 5 years, this story deserves a happy ending.

A bitter-sweet ending would be cool too, one that shows that even though you sacrificed it all, your life lives on in the lives you saved by destroying the reapers.

Or a realistic-tragic ending that reveals that the Reapers were unstoppible the whole time, and that there are somethings in life that really are impossible to defeat, so live while you can.

But this ending is not even an ending, this is just some Matrix-Deus Ex bullcrap.

I'm coming from Jack's romance perspective, so I'd rather there be better development and more contact before the finale hours because I knew my Shepard was going to have a one way trip. Throughout the game, I was thinking to myself "Why haven't I contacted Jack more? There has to be some free time to vent out my frustration to her and vise versa. Grissom Academy was great, but after that it went downhill, I won't even get into it. ****, Jackolytes don't even have it the worst, but that's not the point. The way Bioware handled Jack's relationship with Shepard seemed to focus more on the psychical aspect, compared to their emotional development through ME2 and so on.

Bah.

[Onycha]

Damn straight I care. I've been waiting nigh on six years for m!Shep and Kaidan to get their act together. I became emotionally invested in that relationship! I wanted them to go around the galaxy having awesome fun Spectre adventures, and perhaps making amusing drinking chalices out of bits of Reaper.

Silliness aside, I truly wanted Shepard to catch a break, just this once. Even if the galaxy was a shadow of its former glory, s/he could have at least had a future with a little bit of brightness in it.

[CptData]

I do care and I definitely want my fave LI and Shepard having some kind of future. Even if it's not rainbow-happy-end, they should stay together in the end.

Plus: Give some sugar for ME2!fans. Seriously, sidelining a LI is bad enough (VS in ME2). Killing two LIs for fem!Shep (one dies, the other one moves on) is really mean ...

[Kilshrek]

Poor ME 2 characters, half of them return just to die.

But.. Happy endings, why do people hate them so much? Why does Bioware hate them so much?

[KOKitten]

I never saw my Shepards as the type to settle down and have lots of blue babies but that doesn't mean I don't think the option should be there for those who want it.

I've always thought that various endings should be available so that those who wanted their Shepards to go out in blaze of glory can do so and those who wanted their Shepards to finally enjoy life after the Reapers would also have that chance.

My perfect ending would have been Shepard flying off with his/her LI (and possibly some of the squad/crew) on the Normandy to continue protecting the galaxy. Of course this ending would have worked better had the Mass Relays not been destroyed.

Thank you! So very much, My heat has been broken as all my favorite LIs got sh!t on in ME3 (for the record again my favorite LI's are as fallows, Samara, Jack, Kelly, and than a tie between Ash and Liara in last place)

I was a huge fan of Thane, Thane was my Garrus. So the way he was treated P!ssed me off.

I'd also like to mention a few more bad treatments of ME2 LI's Jack can die if you don't go to Grissom Acadamy fast enough.

Kelly Chambers can die in 2 different ways I know about, first is if you don't have her changer her ID and looks Cerberus kills her. Next if you get upset with her for spying on you She commits Suicide.

Also I really want to know if Captain/Commander Bailey lives, the dude had a Son and Daughter on earth I'd kind of like to give him some closure to them  if alive or dead, same with his ex-wife he lost track of, but had wanted to say some things to her (Never said if  as to what sort of things he wanted to talk with her about, for all we know he was just too far away from earth and they got devorived and he could still love her). I'd kinda been hoping for some more about him since ME2 with his thing about "Thane isn't the only one who screwed up raising a kid".

If the ending is super hard to get then sure

So long as it doesn't enforce MP to achieve it.

[CptData]

@ gearseffect: definitely. I liked Badass Bailey. A cop with a shady background? Perfect! One of the better developed secondary characters in the series.

I say "give ME2!LI" more stuff since they really got sidelined. Thane dies, Jack and Miranda -can- die, Jacob moved on. And out of the "big" romances, the VS got a quite short stick since lack of generic banter. The romances for both are great, it's just lack of content between romance scenes. Check out Garrus and his lines and compare against VS. You know what I mean?

And definitely needed: missions for your LI, regardless if it's ME1, ME2 or ME3 LI. Some special assignment that explores another side of your romance.

It's not just the romanced Sheps who need a happy/hopeful ending...unromanced Sheps need this too....his still young, still has a lot of life to live, find love in fanfic....Shep has sacrificed enough, he deserves a chance to live and be someone beyond his hero status, have his own time and chance to define himself for himself.

That too. Same of fem!Shep of course.

Just show Shepard with his/her (surviving) squadmates and important crewmates in the end. If Shep has a LI, show 'em kissing. Whatever. You know the deal ^^

[Lawbringer-SR2]

I made a promise... I don't make promises I don't keep. So now, I'm a liar. =(

[Totally Not Swaggacide]

I do. My Shepard and Ashley are in love and to spend the rest of their together and start a family, they still will be Alliance soldiers though and this will happen because the ME3 endings dont exist.

That would work....in all honesty, I do wonder if all the feelings we are having about our Sheps with their lack of LI development, hopeless ending, etc.... is more to do with us just wanting to know there is a something beyond for our Sheps, we have lovingly built our Sheps over three games, be that male/female/custom/default/paragon/renegade (and all shades in between)/etc...so many of us have grown our Sheps into being something almost real for us, we feel our Sheps journeys, make their decisions as best we can, do the best we can with our Sheps...Shep in a way became more than a game for many of us, we genuinely care about our Sheps and just want our Sheps have that chance to just be....is that about right for you too?

I'd like there to be an option for some kind of, if not "happy" ending one where at least Shepherd gets to stop the Reapers and have an option to lay down the gun for another to pick up and carry on with. The man (or woman) has accomplished more in three years than most do in an entire lifetime. He deserves to build that house on Rannoch with Tali (yes I romanced her).

I can understand an ending with loss, but damnit I want some hope in there. I'd like the option for a happy ending because I feel Shep deserves it.

Bioware made liars of all of us. There there.

Which is perfectly understandable, I want one too.

Why Bioware seems to be so.... set.. against any semblance of actual happiness, or the option for such, in the endings though, is up for speculation.

I literally think about this everyday to some extent.

Absolutely. Sig.

[lomifeh]

The ending kind of reminds me what you'd see in some HS story where the kid decided to write an "unhappy ending" just to be cool. In an attempt to engender debate or discussion they went with the sledgehammer without realizing nuance wins the day not heavy-handed gloom without closure or seeming consistency. Unusual for Bioware to make such a misstep.

Hah.  You know I enjoyed DA2 for what it was.  Not as good as DA:O but it had some nice ideas in it.  But yeah the ending overall I liked there beause it did provide some idea of what happened to everyone and left it open for Hawke and his GF/BF.
