Mass Effect 3 had tons of choices.

But only one consequence.

Most of us don't want a "happy ending". Most of us want an ending that actually makes sense and doesn't make the Reapers creation to be something as stupid as "I don't want organics to be killed by synthetics so I made synthetics that kill organics so organics won't be killed by synthetics".

Personally, I prefer darker endings. This wasn't dark, it was just stupid.


I totally agree. A lot of people inside the Retake movement (like myself) fully expected a dark and sad ending where Shepard dies. What we didn't expect was plot holes and nonesense like aLucidMind has stated. We were also hoping for different endings that were a bit vaster in their diferences. Red, Blue or Green does not a different ending make.

That being said, I can also understand why so many people were hoping for a happy ending. While I myself did not expect one, it is not entirely unfair to say that no one should have. BioWare's previous games, most notably Dragon Age Origins have provided players with the ability to keep their character alive, even in circumstance that should require their death. Basing expectations on previous experiances is a normal and understandable thing to do.

What I want is an ending that makes sense, one that takes into account Shepard's personality and values, not three "choices" that all give in essesnce an infered holocaust for one or more races.

Hah read the title to this thread and thought it was yet another person who just can't comprehend what is wrong with the endings.
But the ops post is exactly my opinion.

Everyone had overcome their prejudices and hate for each other to defeat the Reapers. All the star systems are cut off without the relays so now all worlds such as Palavan and Asari homeworld can rebuild in peace for a while since it'd be difficult for the Krogan or Geth, or Rachni to attack without the relays. It was happy.

It's always Biowares way. I thought most of BSN were aware of this, but it seems not judging by the feedback...

I'm not out to get a bubblegum pink Happy ending. just one that gives closer to a great game series. this game and my 100 plus hours enjoying it deserve more. A great game shouldn't leave me feeling a huge mind numbing WHAT?

That argument assumes that the entire galaxy is stranded at earth and that the relays went nova. The first is unlikely, and the second is proven false, both by Biowares tweets and the cinematic of shepards gasp on London.

Try harder.

it can still be meaningful with one ending.

All roads lead to...

Like matrix reloaded...if neo messes up....he does not reach the 'source' at all.

If he makes all the correct choices he reaches the 'source'. the source reveals itself to be the architect...and then gives him 2 choices.

Did Neo say what the hell? 2 choices? Whatever i did before boils down to 2 choices??!! this is unacceptable. The movie up to that point was amazing due to his journey there.

This is what BW means it their statements.

I have a few issues with non-closure etc but critics of the ending first have to understand this and take it from there. Otherwise BW will not bother listening,

But i agree...they shouldn't of promised closure and no A,B,C ending without specify what they mean by ending....the last cutscene or the series finale (whole game)


,,,yh and stop asking for fairly tale endings...go play mickey mouse

ps. still waiting for the indoctrination aftermath ending...fingers crossed!

The ME3 ending was **** not because of the hopelessness, but because of the lack of: logic, choises, a  proper conclusion and a decent spacebattle scene.

Wait, what? Did you not see the space-battle at the end? It was frickin' massive. And epic.

What's wrong with you people?

You're right they completely ret-conned their own lore.
When a Mass Relay is destroyed they DO go super-nova, however this didn't happen...

It's just like their tacked on Reaper logic "We kill you to save you, from synthetics who will kill you even if you gain their trust and alliance because we are killing you to save you."

It's just crappy writing and a lapse of judgement when you actually can't stick with the lore you create.
Destroyed Mass Relays supernova and destroy the system they occupy, but they don't....

:blink:

STFU, and read before you post.

And those people happen to have a fairly good idea of why people are upset actually. Judging by the first mega thread of whiners (the one that has more than 1500 pages of replies) a very large percent of the dislikers wanted to end with sunshine and ponies.

They're called plotholes. I'm sure a plausible explanation could be made up, they were the ones who built the relays and failsafes...

I mainly wanted different endings...even if it were unhappy. Though, Garrus wanted us to try for little turian/human babies, and I really wanted the opportunity to try.

Mass Effect its and, why all the anding overload the Relay, and the explosion destroyed some planet and sistem like the Arrival dlc,

in one of this ending, Shepard its live, and the Normandy go into a strange planet, all the squad member its live, but not its possible return on Earth, and not its possible for thr remane Fleet of Quarian,Turian,Volus,Hanar,Krogan,Asari,Elcor to return in the respective HomeWorld, the all species of Galaxy not have home, not have the tecnology to travel in the Galaxy.

so its possible crete a new history after this ?

for me not, because Mass Effect 3 its the ending of Mass Effect Universe,

all new title go to ending in this,

i love Liara, i love Thessia, why BioWare not have put in ME1 or ME2 a little travel on Thessia,

for the romance of Shepard and Liara.

I Think people are ignoring the fact that your choices are represented indirectly through EMS, which plays a huge role in which of the 17 ending variations you get.

Except plotholes are formed by bad writing. Futhermore the Reapers didn't create the Mass Relays, the beyond ancient civilization that created the Reapers used the some of the same technology and materials that the Reapers are built upon to build the relays.

Because if you choose destory reaper option and have a low EMS....all of earth is burnt to a crisp. But magically with high EMS earth is unscathed and only reapers die?

Why would the size of you fleet effect the crucible explosion? Does this make sense to anyone? Do you think BW would make a stupd plot hole like this?

Enter indoc. theory.

Ok im going to stop trolling. bed time

I personally just want to be able to play my Shepard, don't accept the kid's flawed logic and not taking one of his choices. And really be able to see the result of my ending for each important character/part of the Galaxy.
Happy ending is just icing on the cake (unless Shep living is enough for happy ending, even if Shepard has to flee to live), not the main problem.
