Yeah. And while I could have survived with just not playing ME 3 or stopping at the cerberus base as some suggest, it ruined the entire series for me. Soooo yeah. x_x

Truely and honestly did that ending really ruin a amazing game which start to all the way to the ending run was amazing. In my opinion it wasn't all that terrible..Granted it was a desus ex machina but then again so was the crucbile it self if you think about it.

Did it ruin the game for me? Yes & No. Remember most of the uproar isn't over the game itself. Most people were enthralled with how good the game is, except that the ending was bad. Thats all that I can say really.

It ruined the whole franchise for me. I don't see the point of replaying the games, ever again.

[Miths]

Nope, I genuinely liked it, because I'm apparently dense enough not to notice all the plot holes I just started reading through in a Google Docs document, but quickly stopped reading again because I didn't want to spoil what for me was a great ending to the trilogy .

Able to ignore more or less obvious plot holes I liked that the ending I chose (control) had Shepard dying (a fitting end for a larger than life hero), left plenty of unanswered questions and destroyed the mass relays leaving members of the various species stranded all over the galaxy and likely setting back technological and societal development by centuries or more for most species.

[DaLocal]

Yes. At first, I thought it didn't, but I'm a lot less motivated to play through my other Shepards right now. I know that I eventually will, but I'll probably just play them up until you sit next to Anderson since I absolutely loved everything to that point. Then I will turn off my Xbox.

I was even thinking about playing a new Shep from ME1, but I don't see that happening anytime soon either.

Yes, I haven't played the single player since and I doubt I will ever do my T'soni LI playthrough I was planning on up till the ending. I just can't care about the story anymore if that is how they plan on ending it.

[iorveth1271]

I wouldn't mind playing the game again but seeing how bad and pointless the ending is... it hasn't ruined the series, but it sure ruined the entire prep process in all of ME3.

[Shinobu]

Yes, I haven't played single or multiplayer since I finished the first time. I also can't bear the thought of playing ME1 or ME2 again. It really did poison the whole franchise for me. I wish it weren't the case.

[Sal86]

Yes it did for me. It's too hard for me to drag all my buddies through that again for no reason as another paragon, I really don't think I could bear to do my full renegade at all.

The most depressing thing for me is that I can see the future.

I see a future in 5-10 years time, when Mac Walters, Casey Hudson and all the other lead Devs are no longer affiliated with EA or Bioware, at which point they all start to release honest and apologetic press releases on the internet as part of PR campaigns for their latest games, focusing on an analysis of everything that went wrong with the ME3 ending, who was to blame, what should have been done better and how it was mostly the fault of other people but overall was the only acceptable course of action they could take at the time, given the circumstances.

And most important of all, vowing that it will never happen again and that the new game they're working on has learned from all the mistakes ME3 made, protecting it utterly from repeating them.

They'll talk about the real story behind the development, the fan reaction, the pain they felt at not being able to openly answer questions or acknowledge the problem due to company policy. They'll all say it was a dark chapter that they deeply and genuinely regret,

You only need to read through some of the "post mortems" of the Star Wars Galaxies NGE to see a parallel situation, only several years further along. I can't believe how Bioware has managed to get into a hole big enough to rival the NGE, but somehow it has.

I just really don't want Shepard and the ME universe to go out the same way SWG did. I think the game deserves more than that, and I think that's why it's so amazing and important that everyone has pulled together to "hold the line" and try to have things changed here and now, before it's too late, before the game just becomes a sad moment in gaming history like SWG is.

[Kesak12]

ruined triliogy have not wanted to play it since the ending.

[Joe1962]

Yes, the endings killed the entire series, for me.

I cannot believe the same people wrote the majority of the game and the endings.

A total disconnect.

[M12311]

Ruined entire trilogy.

[Rrated128]

Sadly yes it kinda did. I must have replayed ME1 two or three times and ME2 four or five times and loved every moment of them. Yet again we get to the part where everything in ME3 was good until the ending and it ruined any desire to replay any of the three because there was no closure or epic climax. Bioware could have just looked at ME1 and ME2's ending compared to ME3's and know they were going the wrong direction.

[Voutsis1982]

Yes. The series I used to hold up as an example of how video game storytelling can do things that can't be done in film, TV and literature, showing it as a more than legitimate medium and encouraging others to check out, is now a punchline. I used to be such a huge fan.

[MordicaiBlack]

yes it really did ruin it for me, and now i honesly don't know if i will even finish another run through....

[The Final Few]

Yes

[Corrik Ronis]

Yes, yes it did. The destination certainly does matter to the journey.

Hold the line.

[NoxJuked]

Nope on 3rd play through, working on male shep in mass effect 2 that will be my 4th and will most likely do a 5th again with my femshep later on when dlc comes out. Even planning to re-play first mass effect again with a new character.

[Iwillbeback]

The entire franchise has been soured.

[SupR G]

Yep, it did.

The ending is everything, it can make or break a story. If the ending is stupid, then it makes everything that came before it less credible and sensical. I wasn't playing ME for the repetitive combat. 

Means... to an end. 

[Wattoes]

Ruined the trilogy.

Its the single most disappointing ending of all time. Some may technically be "worse", but nothing has caused the same level of destruction, or been so drastically different in quality to the rest of the product.

[SaladinDheonqar]

How did it not? It fact, it ruined the whole series. Quite a feat how 10 minutes of rubbish can ruin a 100+ hour experience. Mac and Casey should be proud of themselves.

No. I enjoy playing ME 1 and 2. I haven't played ME3 again because I don't want to play it again right now. I am sure I will, I pay 70.00 for game and going to play it again. The ending was horriable and lack the awesome storytelling that was ME 1 and ME 2 shown that Bioware can do, but I am waiting to see if they are willing to let this epic story end on a cut and paste job from every other game that has come out claiming that they will be different with their endings. I am sorry ME 3 ending, from what I have read, is just like numerous other games. Bioware used to stand apart from the pack and now they have joined it.

[FierceReaper]

Killed the whole thing for me.
