the very notion that anyone of us regardless of what you feel should happen to the ending should feel anything should show to everyone that the gaming community still has light years of maturity to achieve before our pastime is even taken seriously by non-gamers
What does this even mean.

I just wanted to know what the overall feeling towads The Director's cut DLC is.I feel some anger mix in with disappointment and a touch hope.I think they took the whole "its our art" reasoning a little to far (Mainly because its unfair defense). The good thing though is they announced something in regards to the ending...
I think many on the board took the whole "it's our art" reasoning too far. It is their game. Too many have watched that Neck Beard's ending breakdown video on Youtube and are just railing off on his talking points. I think many of you whipped yourselves into a frenzy over, in the grand scheme of things, not much. So, how am I feeling, good. LIfe is beautiful, no?

PS I really can't imagine how they will explain leaving shepard behind by his squadmates, miracleous teleportation to normandy, Earth with every species in the galaxy and destroing mass relays not destroying systems. Too much plot holes for extended cut and clarification.

I have no problem with artistic integrity. It's just that the ending does not retain the integrity of the remainder of the art provided to their audience.surleygentelman wrote...
Why does the concept of artistic integrity cause such anger in people? that is beyond illogical

Imagine going to a romantic comedy movie. In the final 3 minutes, it turns into a slasher flick and everyone gets killed in gruesome and gory fashion. That's pretty much the equivalent of what happened in ME3. I've been a staunch supporter of Mass Effect and have argued tooth and nail with people who have called "plot hole!" countless times throughout the series... but the ending is just filled with so many inconsistencies that it's just ridiculous.
The artistic integrity of Mass Effect was already destroyed by the ill-conceived ending. All gamers are asking is that it be restored. Epilogue ending cutscenes filled with handwaving magic won't do that. They won't even come close.

If you can't understand the concept of an analogy, then I fail to see what intelligent points you can bring to this discussion.surleygentelman wrote...
Why would I is any compare ME to a romantic comedy. This a video game nothing more. At this point we as fans have officially jumped off the deep end. We have acted as if this game actually affects our real lives.
If you could refute even a few key shortcomings of the ending, then you might have a leg to stand on. As it is, you're just blindly saying "people who don't like the ending are whingers" without actually even giving any consideration as to the validity of the complaints. There is nothing illogical in complaining about the utter lack of logic and consistency in the ending of ME3.
Try to answer these questions:
1) Why does the explosion of the Mass Relays not kill everyone - just as it was established in Arrival?
2) Why is everyone declared to be dead after Harbinger's laser hits, even though Shepard (and Anderson) are still staggering towards the tractor beam in a completely open space?
3) Why does Admiral Hackett attempt to contact Shepard when the Citadel arms open and the Crucible docks, even though it was declared that everyone is dead?
4) How did squadmates who were with Shepard on Earth (and even got hit by the laser that "killed everyone") end up on the Normandy only a few minutes later?
5) Why did whomever built the citadel construct three tubes to destroy/control/synthesize when the child declares that these endings were not foreseen and that Shepard has now proven the previous perfect solution to be fallible? If the creators of the citadel (which we assume are the Reapers based on previous information) believed the Reaper solution to be correct, why would they build in options for three other solutions that they would have previously calculated to be sub-optimal?
Those are just some of the issues with the ending. It's quite easy to come up with more, but the new ending DLC won't really do anything to solve many of the problems with the delivery and details of the current ending.
