My Shepard should have a hope for retiring on a full Alliance Navy pension with Ash, in a nice, quiet community with broadband and lotsa kids.

You could say he earned it.

I don't mind if if the character dies if there's a reason to it and the sacrifice is worthwhile, huge bonus point if the sacrifice is not mandatory.

I dont mind dying in the end but have the ending make sence or i die for nothing

[Hizuka]

I started ME3 with the assumption that Shepard wasn't going to survive it. A game can have a main character die and still have a good ending, as long as it's handled well. Unfortunately, Bioware really screwed the pooch on this one.

[What?]

No, I really wouldn't be okay with this. The choice should be there for those who want it, but I envision my Shepard as moving on--albeit bittersweetly. Something along the lines of surviving with whomever I took to Earth, while the rest of the Normandy dies in a head-on battle with the Reapers. Preferably Harbinger, for cool-points. I'd want my Shepard to memorialize them, and then help rebuild galactic civilization. To find an inkling of solace in the friends still alive with him. I'm not interested in the 'heroic sacrifice'. Didn't swing for me in Dragon Age, and definitely doesn't swing for me in Mass Effect.

My Shep deserves to live

[Doofe2012]

Not the way Bioware seems to want to do it. It just feels...forced. I get the appeal of sacrifice, really, I do. If Darth Vader had been able to live at the end of Star Wars Episode VI, that would have been crap. But despite all of the death and pain throughout the Mass Effect series, I feel like an ending in which Shepard and his/her LI lived and been able to be together wouldn't have "cheapened" the war or the Reapers. If anything, it would have actually provided a sense of victory at the end of ME3 unlike the feeling of depression many of us had.

[jammer2]

since this is the end it should be our choice, i want the happy ending were Shepard lives back on earth with a big ceramony to honor him and the team. Plus if he could survive the collector base and soverign he could survive this with a last min pick up from the Normandy or something. should be several different options for the player sinc this is it.

[EagleScoutDJB]

I'd liked to have seen at least one ending were it's possible to survive, but I've expected Shepard to die since they said 3 would be the end of his/her story.

[Han Shot First]

Absolutely.

The ending should not be filled with rainbows and butterflies. If Bioware were to alter or add to the existing endings in DLC, all of the endings should remain bittersweet. The most positive ending as far as the fate of the galaxy goes, should involve some sacrifice on the part of Shepard and his team.

So you mean they should discard one possible Shepard from ME2 and turn in into a sacrificial hero?
Besides, saying "happy ending" is equal to "rainbow and butterflies" is like saying the reaper's rampage managed to call into the galaxy the  mad wrath of the outer gods and then everyones suffers until the ends of time because it is a "bad" ending.
Does that happens in a "bad" ending? No. Would a "good" ending be "rainbows and butterflies"? No.

Only option? No.

One of many? Yep.

[Ieldra]

I would like a variant of an ending I like where Shepard lives. On the other hand, I would also like an ending where Shepard dies to save galactic civilization.

In any way, Shepard's death is not a primary problem for me. I've seen it coming from a long way back that Shepard's death is an possible outcome. But it should give you the otherwise best ending. The mandatory destruction of galactic civilization is not OK.

[Lightice_av]

Shepard can't be allowed to live in the ending. An enemy like the Reapers can't be shown defeated without massive, personal sacrifices. You are supposed to feel sad and angry about the loss of your favourite hero. An end where Shepard survives would completely underplay the galactic threat that has been going on for millions of years, and make the Reapers seem like pushovers.

Compare the Lord of the Rings; would the ending be remotely as poignant if the magic returned, elves became prosperous again, and Frodo lived happily ever after in the Shire? I think not.

We have dismissed that claim.

Shepard isn't forced to be a sacrifical hero anymore since ME2 acknowledge the he might fight for his own survival instead of for saving the Galaxy. So what does someone which fights for his own survival do when his sacrifice is the only possible way the save the Galaxy (considering Bioware would lack one of the basic skill of any game master: finding new ways to achieve a goal)? He doesn't sacrifice himself, be it the Galaxy destroyed.

[DoomMech]

If he went out like a badass, then yeah.

If that was just one of many possible endings, some of which he lives at the end, then double yeah.

[HairyMadDog1010]

If my LI got preggers or my femsheps cryoed an egg I would be ok with it.

[Tirigon]

Yes, if it is a cool guy death. A death like the elves of Gondolin from the Silmarillion, fighting so fiercely that even the Reapers rather run than go into Shepi's weapon range to be slaughtered.

[sonoko]

I don't mind my Shep dying at the end of the trilogy. Actually I played ME3 expecting a glorious heroic death at the end - something like"Victory at any cost!"

But, for God's sake, if you are going to kill the main hero, at least explain why he has to die, what his death will accomplish, what impact it'll have on the galaxy! Otherwise it's just "pointless waste of life".

This is something that I can definately agree with. Showing nothing more than different colours of energy bursts was dissappointing and insulting. We should definately see the immediate effects of our actions, and how they reflect to the people we influenced during the trilogy.

The only way a "rainbows and butterflies" ending could be would be of Shepard could hop into a DeLorean and stop the Reaper invasion from ever happening to begin with.

[JunMadine]

I expected that he would most likely die. I also thought you could have him live if you did things the right way. I expected there to be more then what we got.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CAN YOU STOP SAYING THEY SHOULD "REMAIN" BITTERSWEEET?!

"Remain" implies they are bittersweet to begin with. They are not; they are crap, plain and simple. A turd is NOT bittersweet.
