I wouldnt call people stupid, just because they liked the endings. People have differing opinions, and their opinion is just as valid as yours, or as mine, or as someone elses. No wonder people think we're whining.

Because people that don't support the ending have simmered down a bit, maybe? It does seem as if things have calmed down a bit...

The general mass (no pun) of average joes are finishing up the game. They likely don't have the committment of the series some of us do & finishing up Mass Effect is just another check box off the list of things to do. For me (and I'm sure many others) Mass Effect's appeal is in the replays ... lots of them. I don't think that is the case with the average consumer.

I've been seeing a lot of people like the endings of Mass effect 3. I have to wonder though, are they really big fans of the series or have they just picked up the latest one and put "action mode" or whatever on. Because the ending makes no sense... at all, and goes against the lore established by previous mass effect games and dlc. Are these people just ****s, or simply ignorant? Every time they say they like the ending they never give a reason why. Is it the fact that it was ripped straight from Deus Ex 1. Or the fact that it creates 10 plotholes, or the fact that it goes against the whole purpose of the series where you collect forces to stop the Reapers only to make the collection of those forces pointless since we all get 98% the same ending.
I am seriously so confused, how can people be so stupid? Have they not finished the game?
Right, calling people stupid, ignorant or anything else, because they disagree with you? You know, it is people like you that cause your "movement" to be placed in a bad day light.

You hear bad reports, expect it to be worse than what it is and will, as a result, experience an ending that is better than what you were expecting.
Tha opposite is also true, if you expect something to be better than what it is, you will be disappointed no matter how good/bad it really is.

Why I like the endings? Because they are good. You just have to think a little bit to see a whole picture but when you did everything makes sense.
People thought that ME is a space soap opera with some sci-fi, turns out it's a hard sci-fi with some space soap opera. That hurts.
50 millions years old Reapers don't care about your character, your choices and if you are paragon or renegade. "Oh, I see that you helped Gianna Parisini and kicked that BlueSun out of the window, so here a special (happy) ending for you". He even don't know about this stuff. All that matters it that you made it to the Citadel. They always said that Reapers are invincible? They are, no plot-holes here. It's all very logical. Maybe sad, but logical.
Your reward is not a happy retirement on a beach and lot a blue children. Your reward is to decide the future of all life in the Galaxy. That's pretty big reward in my opinion.

In Psych 101, based off the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator:
Judging vs. Perceiving
People of the judging type are more likely to hate the ending, because it's too open-ended and doesn't explain anything.
People of the percieving type are more likely to like the ending, because it's open-ended giving them the opportunity to speculate it's possibilities.
Statistically, there are more judging types than there are percieving types.
Otherwise, anybody who liked the ending were swamped by people who didn't. The boards were also getting spammed with the ending is bad threads. Things seem to have calm down. I suppose people have reached the "acceptance" stage in the 5 stages of Mass Effect grief now.

I would call people stupid, working with customers all day long it pretty much becomes an established fact. What exactly about their position of liking horribly stupid endings makes them smart?

Some people like murdering others, doesn't mean its right or smart.

This seems like a reasonable explanation, kind of what they did with Dragon Age 2. IE dumbed it down, and yet people still like that repetitive, crap story, game.
