^ Don't bull**** people in here. Have you ever taken a class in literature?

People remember the beginning and the ending of a story most. If they don't like the ending, the entire experience is nullified.

Don't bull**** people.

Considering I have 0 desire to replay my favorite trilogy after it's abysmal ending, I concur with this statement.

Bullsh*t.

The end either justifies the journey or completely nullifies it. The interpretation is yours. That ad is insulting.

Then I feel sorry for you if you think this is how you think about anything then. In life, you just end up dieing anyway and you think everybody will just remember you for that moment at the end? What about people remembering  you for what you did throughout your life. That is how I remember the Mass Effect trilogy: THE ENTIRE EXPIERENCE. Not just the last 10 minuets of the ender game.

move on please.

Bull ****. 

It'd be like Luke Skywalker turning to the Dark Side and joining the Emperor and turning on the rebels at the end of Return of the Jedi. No matter what good he did in the past, it would be nullified by the fact that he pulled a 180 and turned on the people he cared about. People would not focus on the good he's done, but on the evil move that nullified all good he performed in the end.

This isn't life. This is a story. There is a big difference. The ending of a story means everything to what came before it. It is the ultimate statement of the narrative. Ignoring the ending to enjoy the rest of the story is, at best, admitting the story has no overall coherency.

Here we have the destination. One can only imagine the legendary nature of the journey...

[thefallen2far]

The next ad is going to be something like, "have you ever heard of this thing called "indoctrination theory" or "do you have a problem with artistic integrity"

Also, it's wierd because it's actually selling for $30 dollars.  That's $30 off.

Unless they're currently selling it or $10 until tuesday.... $40 till Tuesday?  then it goes back to the cheaper price.

I got this same ad in an email from Gamestop earlier. Couldn't stop chuckling for the better part of the morning.

I hope they were trolling. They probably weren't, but god I hope they were.

Well I thought all the folks that couldn't get over the bad ending had finally ragequit BSN, but it seems they're still kicking around, ready to reiterate to the rest of us what we've already heard a few thousand times now.

[covertdrizzt]

To Op: too funny
Translation- the ending sucks. So you get $20 off.

If EC fails, our anger will blot out the sun!!!!

Someone else said it first. That had a pretty bad ending too...

Dear OP,

Good Find

"It's not about the destination...it's about the journey."

BS, if it wasn't about the destination then why did you leave in the first place?

I'm not ignoring anything, and a lousy couple of minutes at the end might affect my overall opinion on the game but it doesn't cancel out the enjoyment I got out of th the rest of it.

How nice for you that you don't care that 100% of your actions were totally nullified.
Now accept that many of us do.

[Mahrac]

I'm not going to walk over 100 hours to get to a dump and say 'that was a great journey'. I'll find something else to do, thankyouverymuch

[The Angry One]

You just have to love the way these people think the way to win over people is with cynical ad campaigns.

[Joe Del Toro]

This can't be for real.

[The Night Mammoth]

I love this line of reasoning.

This isn't a road-trip comedy where some out of luck and naive adolescents go on a soul searching journey and find their purpose through their various escapades.

It's a story with a very obvious build-up to a defined end point, where we're told every decision is being made with a mind of affecting the outcome. You're going somewhere obvious, you're progressing to the finale gradually with intent. 

I like the journey, but I don't see the point in traveling if I'm not going anywhere worthwhile.

It's more like a roadtrip where the protagonists affect and change a great many people, helping or hindering them along the way.
Then at the end, somebody shoots not only them, but goes back along the road and shoots every single person they came into contact with, removing their influence from the world entirely.

The whole journey was pointless.

Sent this to my friend who played the game and his reaction was "Err, no, f*ck off"

That was so soul-crushingly pessimistic I nearly pissed myself laughing. That really is precisely it.
