Absolutely.

Sure it'll take time for us to fully appreciate, since we'll still be reminded of their old ending, but give it a few months and it'll probably become something all of us will laugh about when we think back to. And I really hope it will, so that when Bioware is releasing another series and we, as their once more loyal fans, join them in supporting it and tell all our friends about it.

This wound may never fully heal.... but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try and patch it up.

At least it would give me a reason to consider Bioware products in the future and actually allows me to finish MY journey the way I choose to. IF they can pull it off that is...

If it properly addresses the consequences of our actions, then yes.

I really hope the 100% retcon the starchild. Just make it all a dream and give us real endings. I know they didn't plan that, but that is pretty much the only way they can fix this now.

And if they are planning on not fixing the endings, they should have said so last week at the very least because now the movement is too strong and too many people are fighting for new ones. The snowball has already rolled into a giant snow bolder. It is too late for them to say no now. That is where being silent and using PR speech has backfired on them. They have completely lost the trust and adoration for the majority of their most dedicated fans. From the pre order numbers that is pretty close to a million. They can't afford that kind of loss in fan base.

People were ready to defend bioware on everything. Fans defended the day 1 dlc, they defended origin, they defeneded every little thing that took money from them because we were so eager to give them money for such a great trilogy and service. Now they have lost that and they can only get it back from fixing the endings. If they don't they lose the last of their die hard fans forever. That means a lot more than you think because they will no longer have people defending them on the internet.  People hire goons to defend them on the internet. Bioware had people defending them by the tens of thousands. Not anymore.

Yes I could. I did it with Fallout 3 so I can do it with Mass effect 3

Sure, after a few months you might get a new ending. But the original ending, the most dramatic moment, has already passed. The best you can hope for is, months later, to replay the game and pretend that the previous ending didn't happen. The ultimate moment in any RPG, that first playthrough where your emotions are running high and you're gripped by what will happen next, is gone.

I didn't like the ending, not at all. I've explained why it is objectively bad. But the internet phrase "can't unsee" is perfectly accurate here. Once you see a person's face, no amount of makeup or plastic surgery will ever make you forget how that person actually looks. This ending is the ending. All you can achieve is a high priced DLC alternative ending that has probably already been leaked to the media. Would that actually satisfy you? 


I'd like it because of the curiosity. I won't mind making another playthrough just to see how it will end this time. As long as I don't know what is happening next my emotions will keep high ^_^

As long as they make sense, give a wide variety of outcomes and make replaying worth it again, then yes, obviously.

Kind of a dumb question really. No offence.

 Hell yes. The current ending poisons the whole experience. I can't even play the single player game anymore, too depressing. 5 years of being emotionally invested in a story smashed to pieces to cater to the Devs ego stroke.

Teh stupid,it burns!

If the new ending is coherent, gives closure and it is affected by the different choices we made, absolutely yes.

What if they just kept the endings and tried to "explain" them as to why they make sense. As if trying to make sense of mass genocide, force merging the galaxy, or being a slave master would work. Becuase you know invasion of someone else's body without permission is okay. 

The more I think about those endings the more pissed off I get at the implications of them. It is as if it was written by people who have no context to what it is like to have your body invaded by a higher power (women and laws on how they are allowed to treat their own body for the last 3000+ years), or what genocide means (uganda, rawanda, germany), or what it means to force other to think like you (slavery and mass brain washing done by the goverment of dictatorships). 

Oh right, the endings were written by a caucasian upper middle class cis man. LOTS OF SPECULATION FROM EVERYONE!

A new ending lacking the confusing plot holes of the current ending and incorporating the choices I've made over all three games? Hell yes, I would be the happiest gamer ever and would go back to telling anyone who will listen how Bioware is the best game company on earth.

The current ending is worse then depressing. It's confusing and contradicts the story throughout 99% of the series.

Yes, but Mass Effect 3 is the last game from BioWare I've bought without knowing the end.

Yes, it would. Bioware's redemption, so to speak. To be fair, they would only gain from it; huuuuge publicity and more than likely up the sales of the game once more + any product they bring out in the future.
