That was my thought too. What was the point of that stupid breath easter egg if there was no way Shepard was going to survive? And really, seriously, did they really think that abysmal ending the game came with was going to resolve the game for 90% of the players? This leads me to believe that they didn't beta test the ending, or I don't see how they couldn't have gotten a loud "WTF" from the players.

Yeah, now it makes sense, and this should be a lesson that just because you guys knew what the ABC endings meant, it doesn't follow  that the rest of us would be able to read your minds. And the more I think about it, that gasp, which now is clearly his/her last breath, was a sick joke. I'm reminded of a snotty teenager who flips you off with one hand while putting his hand out for money with the other. At least that obnoxious "buy more DLC to play the further adventures of your dead character" is gone.

Which I will not be doing. I'm done with Commander Space Jesus.

Actually, Jessica Merizan on twitter is saying it's not.  That's what's so wrong about not finishing a story properly.  She is claiming you would know the Normandy takes off to go find Shepard for a reunion.  I felt that was what it was meant to show, but it's clearly not enough.  And it's again a disjointed timeline.  The Citadel is banged up, damaged, then Hackett is droning on about his wonderful feeling they should all work together (what the hell Shepard has been doing for the last 5 player years IDK), but the Citadel is damaged then it's fixed, then the fixed Normandy takes off to hopefully find Shepard's torso still gasping and hopefully in the same star system (because relays need fixing maybe).  How long did it take to fix the Citadel?  Is that it in the future or now before they find Shepard's torso?  I hope it's the future, because I don't think that Shepard torso could last months without medical help, and food and water.

I hated the EC and it was just as bad if not worse than the original Ending. Oh sure we got a few more dialogue options and a few more cutscenes but that was it. No reuniting with LI and crew, no epilogue for Shepard and LI. No multiple endings based on your choices throughout all 3 games. In fact there was no multiple endings at all again.

Yes the EC gave more cutscenes but if you were to play through ME1, ME2 and then ME3 again and then chose destroy again with making wildly different decisions throughout all 3 games you still would end up with the same cutscenes and Hackett speaking at the end.

The same would happen for control and for synthesis with their respective cutscenes and dialogue.

Frankly again the so called 'happy ending' that they spoke of if you chose destroy and the so called 'other endings' you could get if you chose differently throughout all 3 games and then chose one of the 3 options not including rejection still will play out the same no matter what.

This is complete garbage. This is my opinion. I refuse to buy any Bioware games, I refuse to buy any DLC and I refuse to play their MP anymore since the EC is just as bad as the original endings.

Bioware you were warned you would ****** off a lot of fans if you went this route but you didn't listen. So well kudos to you, you have angered your fanbase even more.

I hope you are happy you lost me as a customer and more soon.

I am very satisfied with the EC, put the pieces together, well done job. I will keep playing the multiplayer, I will keep buying BW games and DLCs.

Now what?

Believe me, BioWare do not need you 60 bucks... The do not care if you live or die.

Now that I've seen the new endings.. I am not as upset over them. Still not what I was looking forward to, at least not completely. I was expecting different battles, different ways to the different endings.

TBH I enjoy the multi-player so much more.
I did find some of the endings as intriguing as before, but not what I was expecting from the previous 2 games. Not what I was expecting from previous Bioware games. But at least it feels like some thought, some work was put forward to creating them, even though the replay value is negligible.

I'm going to finish my insanity run and be done with it, stick with mp from there on out and in between StarCraft II expansion.. some Halo Reach to warm up to Halo 4. At which point it'll sit on a shelf.

Immensely enjoyed ME1 and 2 and still love the play through up to the end on ME3.
Super props to Bioware for doing that right.
Respect for dealing with the flak your decisions have created and still fleshing out endings.

I leave you with this -

When I completed ME1 I did so on pc and xbox, as well as played through 2 more times, (this was back to back, I played more as well later)  I had played so much that playing on insanity was a walk in the park.
It was the game I chose to test out if there was that much difference switching from pc to console really made. I picked it out of many other titles. It was the one game I picked above all others.

The story in ME2 with the dlc was amazing, again so much depth, unfortunately my family grew and required more of my time, I did not get to replay as much as I would like, but still enjoyed it as one of my all time favs.

ME 3 Still missing the desire to replay it.  And to be fair.. still like the MP.

I think the extended cut is great. Most plot holes are resolved, and it even has an extra ending that I discovered completely by accident. The breathing scene was still there, whitch implies that Shep and Li and everybody might reunite, as opposed to where The Normandy is just stuck on some random world. I think Bioware did an excellent job. And to all the haters, "STFU ITS FREEEE."

They will care if they lose ten thousand cusomers! but anyways at least they tried better then what other companies would have done besides i know that the story isnt over i know it in my heart! otherwise why would they have shepard take a breath theres no other reason to unless there planning something else unless they just want you to believe whatever you want to believe but how does that make them money you know!

Good post, your last point hits home.  For me the replay of ME3 always stopped before the actual assault on TIM's base.  After my first few finishes to see if I'd made some mistake, I only ever went all the way to check out some discussion point.  I hated it so much.  Well, I still don't like this either.  It still leaves only one way for Shepard to have a chance and I think that's unfair in a game.  The way to something "good" for Shepard is paved with a horrible choice.  But, it's the only choice, since the others aren't any better for me.  Control is still control even if it's better explained that Shepard's magic energy is large and in charge.  And now the reapers can compete with Molly Maid and call themselves Reaper Sweepers and come clean your toilets.  Synthesis is still deciding what all life will be, which is not to be taken lightly and it is still the goal of the crazier kid-you know the one that turned his creators into a reaper.  Were they better explained?  Yes.  But the explanations didn't remove my dislike for what they meant-they are basically the same thing they always were but prettified.

[SRNORMAND3]

Thats the point its a game where the good guy can live on! its not real life i want it to be fantasy where he lives on and has a little bastard shepard like himself to save the galaxy in the future and thats what bioware took away! They tried to mix a little thats what would really happen in life so he should die in the end saving everyone eeeeennnnnnnn wrong should have kept him alive on the sunny beach in Rio where everyone is buying him a beer that would have been satisfying!

Since you and some others are real jerks here my opinions about the destroy ending:
Shepard is in the damaged citadel before they rebuilt it and was probably found alive by someone. Having the Normandy repaired and going out of the planet and seen Shepard alive just before the credit roll as an easter egg serve the purpose to show us he survived at least in one ending and give us a hint he will probably be reunited with his friends in a near future. The Destroy ending is the renegade way, Shepard sacrified an entire race to destroy the reapers and was the only way for him to survive.
 
Anyway i dont care of what the haters think, If you hate Bioware so much now just delete your accounts here and stop buying their games you will do us a favor since you will all stop complaining like crying babies. Having the EC it better than nothing and giving it for free when a 1.9gigs DLC is suposed to cost 9.99$ prove how Bioware care for their fans! I hated so much the original endings but now i love them and my favorite is the control ending. 

Dragon Age 3 and Mass Effect 4 FTW!

Long live Bioware!

My faith is restored. I just played all the endings and Synthesis is actually a beautiful ideal. Considering I'm studying to become a computer scientist in Machine Learning (AI) it is fascinating to explore a universe with such possibility.

The plot holes were either filled, or became over-lookable. I think I was hung up upon the failures of the game in general, so much so that I was unable to see the beauty of the end. Thank you BioWare for this opportunity to reanimate my love for a series that has struck home for me upon so many different emotional and intellectual levels.

PS: I still friggen hate EA. But hey, at least I can remove BioWare from my "never trust again" list. I will still not preorder anything though, that's asking a bit much.

[Scarlett.Talon]

I figured I'd wait till it came out and see what others posted on Youtube before I decided what to do. After viewing plenty of video's and reading comments, I can't say I'm impressed. Too many items are not resolved for my taste. (And yes, I do want a happy option. I've dealt with enough realities of war and deaths. Some people want skittle rainbows and marshmallow clouds in their alternate reality game worlds).

I'm not going to bother wasting my time downloading and playing the EC. ME3 will just sit on my game shelf gathering dust.

The EC worth the download and the game is now complete with it and it for free, why not giving it a chance?

[staindgrey]

Uhhhh...

Where the hell is my Insanity achievement?

[akenn312]

I just finished playing the EC and I actually liked it. This is not a rash assessment I went through all endings and actually thought about it. 

Is it perfect? Not really there are still some WTF moments that still boggle my mind…like the Normandy just landing in front of Harbinger to pick up the injured squadmates while he is firing at will at anything in range, but the dialogue between Shepard and the LI (on this play-through it was Ash) was really good. I'll accept plot armor for a good scene. I've said this many times showing the teammates and LI's not abandoning Shepard makes up for a lot. Still to fix this they had to give the Normandy crazy plot armor that Harbinger can't shoot at it. But this is much better than before so I'll accept it.

Also I still don't see how showing Shepard actually coming out of the teleporter proves Anderson could not end up in the same place and beat him to the panel, because there is still only one way to walk up to the control panel but since it is Bioware logic I'll just run with it. Maybe these are space magic rooms.

Now to the part I was completely surprised about. I don't mind the Catalyst at all anymore. It's amazing how just putting in a good backstory and letting Shepard ask questions on how he and the Reapers were created and the choice consequences fixes almost everything about him. 

He's basically Master Mold from the X-men. An AI created to solve a problem by organics but his logic ultimately becomes the organic creators downfall. So now all this crap ties in and has some logic to it. I have no idea why they did not want to put this important dialog in, in the first place. It was very interesting and compelling and I enjoyed the way Shepard became himself again and all it took was a few questions. 

Then the epilogue scenes are really what made it work for me as a whole. Yes they are mostly slide shows but that's not the point they show what happens and in a positive way and it makes you feel like you won the game and you are getting something at least a little bit better than the same crash on eden scene. Also the different ending monologues give the ending a better feel. I still hate the Synthesis concept (Self aware Husks?) but it was the best epilogue. Especially when Ash came over and hugged EDI at the Shepard memorial. I still think Synthesis is revolting cause everyone has all this green crap all over their face, but that was very touching moment.

So I feel Bioware did fix 90% of the issues I had. Hopefully some of us can let this issue rest finally. 

Still think ME 2 characters got screwed

Well, gee I've never said I hate Bioware and nice name-calling by the way. Talk about hate. Look in the mirror.

You tell your opinion-I've told mine. See how I don't insult you. You are however again doing what the original ending made people do to get things to fit-you are making things up that are not in the game, not shown.

They were not accurate as to what they said people would get in the end of ME3. You hated the original endings, so you think you should have paid for a better one. Why not show your love and tell Bioware they didn't charge you enough and send them the ten bucks. And stop telling people not to buy their products-I don't think they'd like that. If people (like me, but before me), had not complained about the original ending, you would still have the one you hate.

I've never whined and am not crying. I am expressing with explanations the sentiment that things have not changed much with these endings.

You should be happy now, but you don't appear to be. I am sorry for that.

And maybe I can correct something for you. The Destroy ending is not a renegade one at all. It is merely colored red, but that doesn't have to mean anything. I could say Control is the renegade choice because TIM is shown choosing it. So what?

NO, you would not. Which squad members show up, the state of the Genophage and Geth/Quarian conflicts. Whether or not Wrex/Wreave/Eve is alive or dead. Those are all reflected in the Epilogue. That is WITHOUT a consideration to EMS (which changes things as well).

Oh boy a few slightly animated still shots. That sure is some resolution there.

I dont hate Bioware and i never hated them, what i hate is the peoples like you who complain after having what we wanted, for free. And YES the destroy ending is the renegade one and the control ending is the paragon one, i feel sorry for you because you seems to be blind at that. And i'm happy now with a big smile on my face and when i look in a mirror i see Love not hate.

And yes i showed my love for Bioware greatly since i bought ME 1, 2 and 3 on both the 360 and PS3 and bought the action figures, posters, DLCs and still waiting for the Play Arts Kai action figure.

Anyway i dont know why i'm still arguing with the haters since it will change nothing. I will stop doing that right now since it a true waste of time.

[reny_511]

While I am happy they filled in the majority of plot-holes, I feel they missed a seriously wicked opportunity by not rolling with the Indoctrination Theory. It would have fixed everything, from the incredibly late addition of a new character who magically has all the answers to lifes problems, to the contradiction of allowing Shepard to become what he had just killed. Saren (synthesis) or TIM (control).
I was touched by all three endings (and the reject one just had me in laughing fits, Bioware is such a wicked troller). Saying goodbye to your LI was nice, but would it have killed them to have even a slideshow pic of Shepard and their LI reunited? Liara and little blue children? Tali and her house on Rannoch? Garrus in a bar? I think that last breath scene should either have been expanded on, or removed because it prevents the closure that the other two options do give (even though I still think Shepard got indoctrinated doing that)
So, in summary, while the EC answered questions, it was more what I expected than what I hoped for. It's also shelved the game for me. Replay value is lost without at least one closed happy ending (what can I say, I'm tired of realistic war stories... get enough of that in the news, fantasy is for rainbows and butterflies, or at the very least some sunshine)

Ok, you hated and complained about the original endings and so you got called a hater, a whiner, entitled, a cry baby, and now you are calling me that?  Do you not sense the irony in that?  Nice job.  I've never called anyone any names and would have defended you or anyone else because believe me people said those things about you.  And now you are calling me that.

And speak for yourself as to what everyone wanted-most everyone wanted the star kid gone.  We knew it wouldn't happen so for many it became about at least having the chance at one happy ending with a reunion with friends and especially love interest.  That didn't happen either.  So, we got nothing.

It is your opinion as to whether Destroy is renegade and Control paragon-so what?  That has nothing to do with anything I said, anyway. 

I think you need your mirror cleaned because you have been incredibly hostile.  You hated the ending, but now that you love it you think that gives you the right to insult people.  It doesn't.  I don't care how much you love Bioware-telling people to not buy their products isn't showing them your undying love.

Oh and ME1 was never on the PS3 and I have different versions, too.  So what.

The only short-coming I now have to gripe about (not the only short-coming by a long shot, but the only one bothering me) is the lack of certain romance content. Evidently enough, I'm a Mirimancer, and I feel somewhat cheated that everyone who did the cannon romances of Liara/Ashley/Kaiden received, how shall I say, "preferential treatment."

But I am happy enough with the EC that I would in fact be willing to, say, pay for some Miranda LI content should the DLC ever come around.

I do hope that happens for you and everyone that wants it.  I would like more character resolution.  I don't think leaving Shepard laying in a rubble pile is what you do to a hero at the end of a game.

Anyway i dont know why i'm still arguing with the haters since it will change nothing. I will stop doing that right now since it a true waste of time.

Ok, you hated and complained about the original endings and so you got called a hater, a whiner, entitled, a cry baby, and now you are calling me that?  Do you not sense the irony in that?  Nice job.  I've never called anyone any names and would have defended you or anyone else because believe me people said those things about you.  And now you are calling me that.

It is your opinion as to whether Destroy is renegade and Control paragon-so what?  That has nothing to do with anything I said, anyway. 

I think you need your mirror cleaned because you have been incredibly hostile.  You hated the ending, but now that you love it you think that gives you the right to insult people.  It doesn't.  I don't care how much you love Bioware-telling people to not buy their products isn't showing them your undying love.

Oh...i made a big mistake now, all my answers was not toward you 3DandBeyond the one i wanted to quote was not you, I've just realised i quoted the wrong person. Sorry the one i wanted to insult WAS not you. Geez it what happens when you opens too many windows on the same forum and having so many peoples having a similar avatar and opinions. I feel so stupid now.

To be honest i understand some of your points but i loved the new extended cut endings. It true i'm an hardcore fan of Bioware and i've never given up on them. I am happy by now and i hope Bioware will do a Mass Effect 4.

Sorry again 3DandBeyond.

PS: I know ME1 was never on PS3 but i downloaded the digital comic book of ME1 when i purchased ME2 on PS3.

Bioware's URL http://masseffect.bi...t/extended_cut/ says you have to start from the "Legacy" autosave you get after completing the game. I restarted from my original pre-Cerberus save. Do I need to restart from the autosave? Or, am I good with the original save (pre-Cerberus attack)?

Fair enough.
For me the EC was enough to maintain optimism in Bioware.
I would have preferred an awesome twist like the indoctrination theory but hey, it is ultimately THEIR story that they elaborated on for us (for free after release/purchase) and allowed us some meaningful input into across all 3 games.
It's poor form to come away from a PR event with negative feelings on the company though, that's counter to the purpose of the events in the first place, sorry to hear about that.

When Harby's beam hit Shepard and we woke up to a hazy shambling single gun wolrd, I thought BW were about to pull a gameplay move out of their hat to combine with the narrative ala Hideo Kojima. Alas, it turned out not be on that scale.

Btw, a few cracks I noticed in game. When Harbinger leaves and Shepard gets up in that cutscence, if you hit your mouse you can fire your gun. There is muzzle flash imposed over those scenes when you do. Maybe this belongs in the bugs section so BW can patch it later.

Marauder Shields........ I keep humming the final fantasy victory music whenever we finish our epic engagement. BW have inadvertantly created a hero out of a Marauder and his role wasn't expanded for the ECDLC....... ok I'm being silly. But more Shields has taken on a new meaning....... If BW want to merchandise something make it a plushy Shields!

One final note........ Finally when Shep makes the choice I get pics of the squadmates I took with me the most rather than Liara, Joker and Anderson. It was such a little irritation in the original ending to see those 3 every time. Now the fix is in place suddenly another piece of the journey is reflected in the destination.
