A fantastic post. I am in agreement.

Dear OP,

You're awesome.

Sincerely,
Me

Well put mate.

Well stated original post and pretty well exactly how I felt. I'll go one further and state they should have had a happy sappy ending in there some way some how. Even if my shep had to bite the bullet they could have done a bit more justice by showing all the characters that we adventured with in some fashion talking about the shep sacrifice and making me feel a bit better about it.

Bingo.  The fanbase can be a hellhole sometimes, but lately we've been finding more and more common ground.  I think it's because we love Mass Effect too much, and we don't want it to crash and burn.  What's really amazing is that some honest good came out of all this (just look at the charities, and they actually said they'd fix Deception), so I'm hoping someday Fanpower is harnessed to start really changing the world for the better.

I was actually thinking about that last night. About how long it will take the BSN to revert back to a nerdrage filled warzone. Cracks already appearing around the Indoctrination Theory but I suppose it depends on if we get a fix for the eding or not.

The Cheez stands alone. (it occurs to me that could be taken the wrong way. Alone as in standing a top the mountain victorious, not alone as in you have no one who agrees with you. We are obviously with you.)

Even though I believe a lot of the hard working people in Bioware put a lot of love into the game (it shows with how they handled certain scenes and characters) - for a certain few (I won't name), it wasn't "their baby" anymore. That's just the way I view it, but great post none the less.

Can we close the forums now?

Because there's nothing more to be said after this AWESOME thread.

Really, this sums the feelings of the fanbase so well. I hope BioWare read this thread and cry of shame what they've done in the endings.

While I completely understand your "There was no chance to challenge the Reapers face to face and prove to them that they were wrong, that we were stronger than they thought, that we were worth more than they gave us credit for." part, there's one HUGE problem with this.

The game pounds it into your head over and over and OVER again:

The Reapers CANNOT in any circumstance be defeated via conventional warfare. Standard rules of engagement and strategies do NOT apply.

How do you "prove you were stronger", when the means to do that won't work?

If it weren't impossible, the galaxy wouldn't need Commander Shepard to do it. I mean, that's the whole point, isn't it?

 Good post!  I can really tell you put your heart into it.  

I agree with everything you said, and pretty much feel the same... although to a slightly lesser degree. 

[DasLeid]

THAT is exactly what I think OP, THANK YOU for expressing it in that way. (I'm no native speaker, so I'm not able to form a text like this)

[Hellfire257]

Excellent post. Bump for justice.

[Aerevane]

I'm flabbergasted. Amazing how you've put into words how so many of us feel.

[Nimrodell]

As usual, dear Cheez, you said all that I wanted to tell them. Lets hope they'll know to appreciate this huge love toward their work and huge amount of faith and patience.

[Randalf84]

approved!

[EddMiles]

I hate making +1 posts... But I can't rally add anything to the OP. So +1.

[RunAway ItzJack]

This post put my thoughts into a more elegant form than I could have.\\\\

I stand with you!

[Kushan101]

Very well written. Thats quite a grasp of persuasive writing you have there!

Great points, pretty much all the community has to say on the endings, as well as being delivered in a very readable manner.

[FemmeShep]

One of the better posts, because it feels... genuine. It represents everyone a lot more than some of the other write ups. But the only critique I have (and this kind of contradicts what I just said) - OP could have done a better job explaining why the ending shat on everyone. Why it single handedl, one by one, dismantled everything she loved about the universe, and the story.

I mean, I think it's important we know why the ending is so bad, instead of "it sucks". The DEVS need to know. Beause believe me, they will try to spin this as: oh, well she just didn't get our vision. So we'll release some DLC to clear up our genius ending, and then she will understand where we were coming from. 

But yeah, the post really captures the emotions many of us feel.

Excellent post

[Sainta117]

I wholeheartedly approve of the sentiments expressed by the OP. Great points, all, and a great summary of the emotional impact of the game.

[Faunwea]

Put this in the "we're listening" and the feedback thread?

[DJBare]

My attention span is not the best when it comes to long posts, I can measure it by the number of paragraphs, Cheez I measured yours by the number of words, I don't think I missed a single word of your post, bravo!
