I completed my first playthrough of ME3, actually putting one of my Shepard's through that ending. It hurt.

Needless to say I'm not playing ME3 any more.

Ah, here it is, the thread...

I took in one of my other canon Shepard's (yeah, I got more than one canon, heh) and, after tweaking the face using Lazarus face utility to get it right, played for a while, on and off... Didn't even get to Palaven before I had had enough.

Then it was night where I live, so I slept. In the morning, when The Time drew closer, I started it up and shut it down right on The Time, just because I wanted to drive the point home in my little corner of the 'net.

Felt pretty hopeless the whole time, but I did it for the hopes of a better ending because I feel it deserves it.

Well, technically I beat the game again a few days ago.

Sixth playthrough, I tried making a seventh with my Sentinel in NG+ but I stopped and went to ME 2 at Mars. I'm so burnt out from playing these games, they bore me senseless.

I cured the Genophage, saved the Councilor, Killed the Quarians and sided with the Geth, and chose to Control the Reapers. I also slayed the Jabberwacky and saved Narnia.

I replayed Priority: Tuchanka...decided to destroy the genophage this time to save the krogan from the ending. It had me tearing up even before the Normandy finished loading up...but I know Mordin would have rather the krogan been spared from that travesty, even if he didn't know about it yet.

It felt...bitter...shooting him in the back, dooming them, but still bitter. It reopened the wound, you could say, knowing that all of that wouldn't matter in the end. Did it make me want to play more? In a way. It made me hope this isn't the last time the game disc touches my Xbox, but with the ending in its current atrocious state, I wouldn't want to play more. THat goes for multiplayer too.


I'm so sorry! I didn't want this to cement bad feelings about the game.:(

Turned the game on and replayed the whole ending. The goodbyes still hurt, and everything after the Reaper beam was still confusing to downright irritating.
Replayed some of my favourite scenes afterwards, to get rid of the strange stone in my stomach. Helped Mordin with the cure, talked to Wrex and Bakara afterwards and enjoyed some bottle-shooting on the Citadel.

To me, the worst part about the current ending is not the space magic, perceived lack of logic, lack of options or forced deaths, but the thought of what could have been if the end had been handled differently. With all the fantastic hours of gameplay before, it really hurts to see it all ruined in a matter of less than 30 damned minutes at the end. That was my impression back in March, and that was my impression again when turning the game on today.


I'm impressed by everyone who willingly played the ending again. You are strong people!

You really hit the nail on the head -- all of the wasted potential of this game is astounding.:pinched:

I was going to do it...but i couldnt. I was sitting in front of my playstation and i wasn't able to turn it on. I know at the moment when i would hear the music it would make me angry and very very sad again. So i forced my little brother to do it... Strange, though. I mean it's a game...but it knockt me down. After the ending I was mad and frustraded for days...people around my call me a little crazy. Maybe they are right, maybe i am a little crazy, i dont know...but this game means a lot to me so i will hold the line.

At least i will try couse i want my little blue babys....! and sorry for my english.

You're not crazy, you just love the game and hate to see what it becomes in the end. I hope you get your blue babies!

After reading through all of the amazing posts here I can't let them go unseen, so I'm going to print them out and send them to Bioware along with the On/Off tweets (which are linked in the original thread) as part of Operation Letter Tsunami which is going on May 11. Thank you all for sharing your thoughts and feelings about playing again -- I can see how much you love this franchise and its characters.

I'm heartened to hear that Raphael Sbarge is recording new dialogue, so at the very least the "clarification" DLC isn't going to be a single epilogue slide that says:

"You're right, everyone dies. Clear?" :sick:

Keep hoping, keep trying. :wub:

I'm so sorry. Not wanting to play is one thing, but not having the option of playing if you want to is terrible.:(
