Yep. All I really wanted was a scene where Shep's LI discovered she was alive. Really all I wanted. But I guess there were far fewer of us than I realised. :unsure:


One of the goals for the Extended Cut, as part of addressing player feedback, was to provide more time with the love interest, and more opportunity for players to say goodbye to them and provide additional moments of connection between them. We did this in several ways:
  • Shepard can now actually say goodbye to the love interest when they are split up at the conduit run.
  • When Shepard sees flashbacks of important characters during the final decision, the flashbacks are now variable based on your playthrough – so your love interest can appear as one of the flashbacks, providing another moment of reflection between Shepard and that character.
  • A memorial scene was added, partly to show a close bond between Shepard and the love interest. The scene is variable, and if Shepard has a love interest in a given playthrough, it will be that character who places Shepard’s name on the memorial wall.
  • You may notice that in the “Shepard lives” ending, the love interest hesitates to place Shepard’s name on the wall, and instead looks up as though deep in thought. This is meant to suggest that the love interest is not ready to believe Shepard is dead, and the final scene reveals they are correct. As the Normandy lifts off, there is hope that the love interest and Shepard will again be together.

Sorry if it was asked before but I think I read something about the realys not being destroyed. Are the relays actually destroyed in destroy ending with high EMS?


Relays are not destroyed. Normandy is not stranded. Lots of retconning.


Yeah...so?

Considering how many people wanted a completely different ending that avoided both of those outcomes and more, I would think that a couple of retcons wouldn't be something viewed as a negative thing.


Bioware could have caved to "every" single demand people made about the ending and there would still be tons of ****posting for the next week or so.
Its just the nature of BSN and bioware fans in general, people expect a customized ending just the way they want it, and get pissy when the end doesn't match their fantasys.


We try to listen to all feedback we receive, but sometimes we receive conflicting feedback, or very specific requests that can’t all be implemented. Ultimately our job is to interpret the feedback and design something that addresses the bulk of the feedback while maintaining its own sense of design and integrity.

So does this mean Miranda was supposed to put Shepard's name on the wall after continuing the romance with her from ME2?  Because she didn't...

Miranda is not on the Normandy, as you well know.
