Do you consider the ME3 ending "bittersweet" or massive failure?.

Worst fail in any medium I have ever witnessed. And this is coming from a guy that watched the Voyager finale. ZING


Voyager finale, while it was bad, at least it had closure. They got to earth, it's over. It's also a happy ending.

ME3 is nowhere as good as that!

That's really saying something when an ending can be so bad, that it will take a bad ending on something else and make it look good! :)

Massive Failure...so massive it could implode into a black hole of plotholes.

It is not a massive failure.

It is a (massive failure)^(massive failure). Yes, it can only be explained with exponents.

My first playthrough (which is still my only complete playthrough -- I'm playing again with a ME1+2 import -- quite a lot more EMS going on this time), I assumed it was a bitter-sweep mission failure. I began to play again with Game+ until ...

I went to play ME1 and then import to ME2. Another thread convinced me that the gameplay is good enough for another run of ME3.

Still now that I know how it always ends, I think it's just a failure.

The only positive to the "lack of closure middle of the battle w/o resolution" ending is it brought all the various fanbases together here. Kinda like what Shep did for the universe. Everyone's fanbase is crying out for closure.

I don't know if it's about closure.

What if "closure" is simply taking care of hanging issues like getting Omega back for Aria?

Massive failure.

On every possible level it could possibly be a failure. Epic, in its own way.

Nothing sweet whatsoever, just bitter and also makes you feel helpless and as if you failed no matter what, so yes Massive Failure for me.

Just rewatched the final video of final fantasy X. Now that was a bittersweet ending done right. You set out to do what you needed to do but in the end left everyone behind, alive but without you.

An incoherent mess is the best description of the ending. How would we know if the ending were bittersweet or not? To do so, we'd actually have to have an understanding of the implications of these choices and the associated radical change in narrative they imply.

The ending is either an example of truly bad storytelling or truly bad execution, or more likely a combination of both.
