Nope.
I played ME:1 thrice (Top-notch game. Waited eagerly for the sequals.)
ME:2 twice (Some plot-holes and weak narritive but still good.Excellent music.)
I only played ME:3 once.
When I saw the ending, I checked youtube for the other endings just in case I screwed something up. Shortly thereafter, I took all 3 cases and DVDs shooting with me.
They're in the trash now, riddled with .45 caliber bullet holes.
After DA:2 and the huge narrative failure that was ME:3 and its ending, I'm not only done with Mass effect, I'm done with Bioware.

I'm still here lurking around though. I enjoyed many of Biowares titles over the years. I feel I owe them poll responses, feedback, something, I dunno.. Why do I still check this forum? Bioware is over, just like Bullfrog and Westwood and all the other greats that were consumed by EA and bled to death for every penny their fan-bases were worth.

Played ME1 twice loved it.
Played ME2 once...it was good but it lost the rpg feel
Haven't played ME3 single player yet because my face import is totally screwed even post patch and lazarus.
ME3 Mulit is fun though

All that said, its going to be hard sell for me to buy another Bioware game after this facial fiasco. Makes no sense.

No. I played it once for about half an hour since finding out about the forced MP, and quickly tired of the "dodge the Reapers before you run out of gas trying to find some obscure journal referenced location with absolutely no clues on what galaxy it's in" minigame.

Funny that it was endurable all the way up until I was informed that something was missing. Although it's all rumor, wives tale and urban legend, the "talk" is that this something is usually referred to as "a point", and allegedly makes all the difference.

When no matter what you do, you have already not done enough perfectly through two games to end up any way in the third but dead, what on Earth would make getting there the longest way possible worthwhile?

No. Skyrim play continues. The wait for Bioshock Infinite continues.

Nope, haven't even moved it or any of the other games from their current resting places. No point in getting back on the roller coaster knowing that it ends with a brick wall of disappointment and broken promises (the EC might convince me to give it another chance, but I doubt it). I dusted off my copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy (a trilogy that's fun, satisfying, and coherent from start to finish, and not just for the first 99% of the journey), and I'm having a good time.

Ya. See? First thing I thought of when I heard about the endings and MP was that movie Knowing where the girl was telling Nicholas Cage how little interest she had in knowing the future and her time and method of death ahead of time and then still having to live every day towards it. 

What in the (hmm hmmhmm) for? :huh:

I replayed it twice, the first because well, the first time, and the second time because I have a save where no one except 6 people lived.
What?

Thanks for your input MsKlaussen, but I don't really understand how it relates to what I wrote.

Are you drawing an analogy between the Knowing and my lack of desire to play Mass Effect 3 (or any of the other games for that matter) knowing that it ends in disappointment?

I'm over the ending, Witcher 2 hitting Xbox helped. I can only stomach Me3 multiplayer, single player is dead to me I have all the achievements.

I have replayed ME1 and ME2 way too many times. In fact I am almost finished with another run through of ME2. However, I will not touch ME3 again until they fix the single player issue and the ending.

The ending was an issue, yes, but not even the biggest one. To me, what killed replayability was the lack of control. My renegon character acting overly friendly towards people she used not to care about, the scripted lines, the enormous amount of autodialogue. She sounded totally out of character at many points, the thing pissed me off.

OP, you're trying to appeal to folks whose entire existance for the last 5 years has been the ME series. Don't expect them to act rationally or maturely after they've convinced themselves that they've been personally 'slighted' by Bioware somehow.

To answer your question, yes, for a time after the ending, I was fairly peeved and didn't touch the game except for multiplayer for weeks. Just a couple nights ago I finally got around to importing my second character and honestly, I don't even remember why I was so annoyed to begin with. I'm enjoying seeing dialogue, content and whole cutscenes I missed out on with my first run, and I'm trying out a different class as well.

People are bitter because they want to be bitter. I say let them. I'll be here, actually enjoying myself.

LOL. I'm enjoying myself just fine. I'm just playing other games, where either my choices actually matter or games where you know from the beginning that there are no real choices. Not playing the claims to be one but is the other game at this point.

Yep. I've beaten it three times. However, I must get up and leave the room after initiating the ending sequence.

Nope, played Me3 twice, after the second time the ending was even more sickening so I uninstalled it and I'm playing other games now that do give me satisfaction at the end.
Maybe I'll start it up again when the clarification dlc is out but I'll first read the opinions.



same here! played through twice, didn't get any better the second time for me as it did in both the first two games. I was never one of those 'I'm never going to play this game again' people, but I was disapointed by the ending and some other elements. It just doesn't have enough to keep me coming back. maybe some DLC will help... maybe!

Not done much since completing it for the first time and seeing how bad the ending was. I've tried but i can't shake the sense of pointlessness when playing through the game on SP. I play MP occasionally with some old friends but i won't be touching the SP again =/

I never really had that feeling becuase it's childish, like a little kid throwing a tantrum.

That said...

I played Me1 10-15 times, me2 15-20 times.
Me3 I played through 3 times... It's not that I don't enjoy it or not find it fun.. It's just, I don't know, it doesn't feel like I'm working towards something fulfilling. I have to play it through at least twice more, to see where al my shepards end up, and to enjoy all classes, but it's not gonna be anytme soon...

Ditto, I've gone through several runs of ME1 and 2 and it left me wanting more........ ME3....... I've only played through it once, started a second, got to the genopahge story arc and...... well it's a work in progress. I'm just not psyched about getting through the single player like I was with 1 and 2 now I know where it all leads

Not had a 'never play there games again'. That said I do think, after having gone back to ME1, that ME3 has stripped out elements of gameplay that made me a fan in the first place. What they keep is done much better than before, but I want the variety back of ME1 back. Maybe now they have the gameplay cover shooter system polished they'll refocus on bringing original gameplay elements back in.

Pretty much this, I'm less upset by the ending than I am being forced to MP to get all the endings.

Gone back to playing Witcher 2 now there's a developer that knows how to treat its customers.

Nope, sad to say but the ending effectively killed the franchise for me. I planned to replay the trilogy, tried to but couldn't go past Eden Prime without thinking: "what's the point" ?
