Is it even possible to justify and "clarify" this ending?

No, but they're going to try.

Chill out people. We'll see what they do about the ending. They may pleasently surprise us. If they do, then it's fine, but the EC might blow as well. In that case, we can move on and stop buying Bioware products. Who gives a damn. I will pirate everything Bioware from that point on. You reap what you sow, Bioware... am I right?

This forum will have a slight jump of activity after the EC and then die down forever. There will still be few people discussing left, mainly hardcore fans that never lose trust.

All this happened before and this will happen again.

I see no point in EC if nothing will be changed.

I believe they are setting up for an ME3 expansion pack and that the extended cut is simply going to allow us to "speculate" more accurately.

Sellers are supposed to meet the expectations of the buyer.  That's how it works.  That's why the buyer buy.  When the seller gets so high and mighty that they think that they can sell anything they want regardless of what the buyer expects, you get ME3.  How's that working out for you?

I have no intentions of replaying ME3, but I cannot wait to see BioWare try to justify circular logic, teleportation, and space magic.

Good luck, B.

Hopefully it's not too simple and closes on a sweet note rather than pure bitterness. I thank Bioware for crafting such a great character, as do I thank Kim Brooks for her awesome performance throughout the trilogy but it must be said: having stayed faithful to that character for five years and to do every sidequest and mission to sculpt the best perfect outcome, only to find out she's stranded on some foreign planet and a black screen telling me to buy more DLC was a slap in the face. I guess what I'm saying is, I played perfectly throughout these five years in the ME trilogy, I loved the characters and more importantly Ash, and I did all this under the premise of achieving an epic victory and the possibility of seeing Shep and my LI together after. Sounds like a fairy tale, I know, but wasn't this what a majority of us wanted? Anyway, I should stop before I let the ending ruin my day. To close I will say this: I certainly hope these extra lines Bioware implements are the sweetness to counteract the bitter ending, I just really hope so.

I agree. I just replayed the game for the first time since experiencing the endings. I shut it off after the Cerberus base. I just can't play the existing ending again.

I was never one who cared if my Shep lived or died. I just wanted to have my love interest, my squadmates, and my choices to matter.

Sadly, they did not.

I was as unhappy with the current ending as most other folks but in defense of BW let's cut them some slack until the EC is released. They don't have to produce one and it is important to consider that the cost to do so is probably in the tens of thousands of dollars range.

0.02 USD

Personally, this would ****** me off more than anything else. It would mean that Bioware lied yet again. We were told that ME3 would close out the series and we would get a true ending.

If they DELIBERATELY shipped a complete turd of an ending because they planned on charging for the ending to the story later on then they move from the "incompetent" bucket more fully into the "greedy and evil" one.

Not a surprise to those who actually "listened" to Bioware (unlike Bioware who SAYS they're "listening" but...not so much). It was always going to be the same ending, just MORE of it.

They will NEVER justify "Synthetics ALWAYS turn on their creators" or "I created synthetics to kill advanced organics before advanced organics could create synthetics to kill that would kill them.
See? Aren't you happy that MY synthetics are killing you instead of your own? "

This confirmation (as if it was actually even needed) merely confirms that my time around these here parts and with anything Bioware is fast coming to a permanent and ignoble end.  ME1 and ME2 still sit in repose on my computer.  ME3 sits dormant on a DVD.  Upon release of the offensive anal gas otherwise referred to as the "EC", simply attempting to justify the unjustifiable (logically IMPOSSIBLE), the ME games that are current sitting static upon my harddrive will be uninstalled and forgotten.  The ME3 DVD will visit the microwave (have you ever microwaved a CD or DVD?  Nifty light show!  Only do it for 10 seconds kids.  Blue sparks dance a tango all over the disc surface...just like the blue explosions in the ending of ME3!) and then go into the trashbin.



Well. That was certainly melodramatic.

1. that the ec voice acting is very simple
2. they are explaining the ending
3. they are trying to justify the ending

We feared they were explaining the ending?

Uh, great reviews and sales that will top the previous two games.  Pretty well, actually.

Without weighing in on whether the ending was good/bad or even the EC, I thought ME3 did a great job creating an emotional "pre-ending"/farewell with squadmates/LI.  To me, that was my hope for ME3: a farewell to those characters that Shepard had come to care about.

That is for the game, and it is also before people bought it and realized how sloppy it is. The reviews are irrelavant. And it isn't working out so well, as evidence i use BSN.

Justifying or 'Clarifying' the ending in EC is like trying to polish a giant sh*t; you can polish and make it as shiny as you want, it's still going to be a giant sh*t.

Looks like EC will be the final nail in the Mass Effect coffin, with this one going straight through the skull.
