Oh I wish it were different. The reviews I've read share how wonderful 95% of ME3 is, and deplore the endings. I can't bring myself to play it...

I won't be buying this game, Bioware. I'm disappointed already.

I suggest you atleast rent it. The game is great, up until the last 5 minutes. But still worth a try.

the journey is great

Lol you trust the amazon reviews?

[greggm2000]

Check back in a few months once the EC is out, to see how well it's been received. If it makes the ending bearable, and if there's closure, definitely buy ME3 then.. like you said, 95% (or rather, 99.9%) is really really good. If they can get rid of that awful, awful aftertaste that that remaining 0.1% leaves, you'll owe it to yourself to finish the trilogy.

It's funny because everyone on Amazon is rating the game based on the ending.

ture!! but it still not wrong.if you can go back would you of paid full price for ME3 or wiat till it drops in prices.

I'll second the suggestion to rent it. I did genuinely enjoy the game my first (though so far, only) time through it - there are a lot of small faults here and there, but it's easy enough to overlook them initially. It's only once you hit the 'ending' that the flaws really become noticeable in retrospect, and even then, I'd personally be willing to let most of them slide...if they can actually redeem the ending.

It's definitely worth playing. Once.

Oh stop your whining, you'll probably buy it anyway. Only 10 out of the 100 people who promise to boycott BioWare products ACTUALLY boycott.

Times have changed.  Keep that in mind.

But yes, worth the rental.

I mostly prefer ME3 over ME2 so yes

I am amazed that people still say that 95% of the game is great, its just that the ending is bad.

Yet everyone ignores:

1. The bad journal system
2. The lack of branched dialogue
3. Story cop-outs (Rachni queen anyone?)
4. The horrible beginning
5. The HORRIBLE HORRIBLE eavesdropping fetch quests that got you meaningless war assets.
6. The lack of actual sidequests

and for me the biggest issue was:

6. The linearity.

Its just that the endings are so bad that it makes us ignore the games other faults.


Still its worth a rent.

You are of course correct.

Far, far more wrong than just the ending but i think a lot of people are still in denial. It's like only aknowledging getting kicked in the nuts despite eating broken glass and getting punched in the face.

Kinste, I think you should spend your money on Mindjack it has higher scores on amazon and is cheaper.

[Legion64]

AngryJoe told me MindJack is the worst game of all time. Literally, those were his exact words. and AngryJoe is NEVER wrong.

[FlamingBoy]

you probably made the right choice, me3 is just not worth it, especially at full price

double post but i have to ask

how the hell did you come up with that statistic, if you have a good source i would love to see it, seriously

[Ghost]

Lol AngryJoe is right about MindJack.

Plus, and to expand,
7. Choices not mattering, pre 3 or during 3
8. You're screwed for story if you play as female Shep
9. Unless you are new to the franchise it won't make a lick of sense

1. I agree with
2. Still have branched dialogue, just not near as much as alluded to before in ME1 and 2.  However a lot of ME1 and 2 branched dialogues offered the same overall effect, not ALL the time mind you but a lot of the time.
3. Story cop outs are annoying (rachni queen) but they've been around since ME1 so *shrug*
4. Beginning wasn't bad, at least if you played ME2 and the DLCs.
5. eh they were just time sinks, no more annoying than mining for minerals in ME1 and 2. Only less time consuming.
6. What lack of sidequests? Sure there weren't as many random ones as ME1 or ME2. But at least ALL of them tied into the main narrative or squadmates to some extent (Grissom Academy, Rachni Queen Quest, Ex Cerberus Lab, Asari Monastary, and so on).  Some of the side quests were actually very well done, I even enjoyed the N7 shooting galleries as they were (I've missed Hackett briefs since ME1).
7 The Linearity, sure you couldn't randomize the priority missions, but I dont really find that THAT big of a deal. The story in ME1 and ME2 progressed in a similar fashion and sure you cold randomize when you did certain storyline quests, some of them HAD to be done when the game forced you to do them, so linearity isn't really an issue to me since ME1 and ME2 were both linear in a sense anyway (and really most storyline based games are... after all we dont play ME because it offers us a multitude of avenues to explore like an openworld sandbox game).

But yes I would agree at least rent it, it has many great moments and despite the endings (which I'm in the middle of the road about) i enjoyed it very very much.

I'm sorry DKM but 7 and 9 just aren't true. While the game plays the same despite past choices (as does ME1 and ME2 mind you) the dialogue and attitudes between characters changes greatly depending on past choices and some characters/races wont even survive due to past choices, etc.  Sure to you it may not matter, but it does change up things for those who have played the game multiple times.

as for for not making a lick of sense... i understood everything in the game just fine..so...*shrug* dont know what to tell ya.
