Never really liked "biotics" and most of my char's are soldier's, infiltrator's or mostly tech's.
I'll admit that biotics can do damage but biotics in the "lore" are a lot weaker that what's ingame.

Overall im really happy with the EC. It added all the things that were missing from the game and left just enough stuff for my imagination to work with.
Only thing that still confuses me is the breath scene. Is it my Shep? Or some other N7 soldier? Does it take place before or after red explosion? wat? ಠ_ಠ

But still, great work Bioware! You saved the game!

bioware gave us the middle finger with the reject option and then gave us a WHOLE TRUCK of middle fingers by retconning some serious stuff as well as removing stuff from the main plot itself.

the EC is 2 gig in size and thats not just the endings but the also replaced a LOT of main game stuff.

so yeah we all got a HUGE PLATE OF" F**K YOU" a freakload of people have noticed a lot of stuff have been retconned in the game and a shedload of stuff removed or replaced so yeah .... the EC has made a bad situation WORSE

everyone canforget a reunion DLC and forget about the omega DLC as the EC has just killed EVERY OPTION OFF

Ok seriously how is the Reject ending a F-You?
People actually wanted this as an option early on when the game came out, it adds a 4th option of just saying no to the catalyst and establishes the time capsole liara made.

Once again how is this an F-You, seriously i want to know how people keep saying that and honestly what it really is is that bioware actually liscened to some of the comments made about the ending.


That aside I loved the Extended Cut

[BooBoo_swe]

I hate the endings and wont play it. Don't care if shepard or anyone lives or dies, the way it unfolds to me is just plain rubbish. I wanted to feel all of my milestone choices matter at the ending and fight reapers, small or tall, not hit the iwin button or defiance.

The endings are cheap and uncreative regardless how much they state how they are happy with thair artistic creativity. I can't say i could come up with a better ending that would please the masses but i'd feel better with the whole damn end be based on the pure all out fighting between repear and allied speices based on readiness and assets while shep takes a shot in the head and dies. I still find adding the magic and explaining it in a dlc is a cheapshot and an attempt to ridicule the intellect of the masses.

Could not agree more with this. 

[sorentoft]

Well.

It is better, I don't think anyone can argue with that. I'll start with the good points of it. Contrary to the previous ending then this one gives some closure with the epilogue. It is also less random (your companions getting to the Normandy is explained, also why they leave the system) and it fixes some of the plotholes along the way by that. Depending on what you pick then it is no longer an abyss of a future that meets the survivors (which is good). I'm glad that EA decided to invest in this so Bioware could finish the trilogy on a good(or better) note.

That said, having in mind this is free (although I am sure some feel entitled), there are some sore points with this ending DLC. My first gripe would be the lack of gameplay elements being added, for example Priority:Earth is still pretty much a mess of lost opportunity. They could have aced this ending DLC if they hadded Suicide Mission components to it. Seeing past that then we still have the 'Godchild' and although explained a bit better it still falls short. What was the point of spending an entire game building up to Harbinger if you are not going to use the character properly at least once in the final game? It seems strange to me, and Harbinger (despite what the creator of him desired) could perfectly have filled the role of the Godchild thus avoiding people wanting to throw stuff or swoop away the EA HQ (swooping is bad btw).

I would probably classify this ending as acceptable, personally. Because while in and of itself the ending still falls short of what i had hoped for prior to the release of ME3 then it justifies its existence to a degree. Most importantly it explains what on (or just above) Earth is going on and it has an epilogue that details the consequences of your decisions. Still not the ending I would have expected from Bioware prior ME3, but endings are hard okay? I think I will cut them some slack now.

It was a well written piece of garbage. The core conceits that made me hate the ending were still there, so it didn't make it any better - it just made it longer. Even though some of the moments themselves were well done, it was still in service of an awful ending,.

[mereck7980]

I am very pleased with the EC content. This DLC closed a number of huge plot holes and made me feel that the future of the galaxy was necessarily pointless. I also really liked the option to tell Star Child to go f' himself and let the Reapers win.

The scene where your squad-mates get evac'd and the explanation of why the Normandy was traveling through a mass relay was desperately needed. I also really liked all the extra Star Child dialogue options. The character still feels a little out of place in the cannon to me, but now at least I know enough to form a better opinion of its motivations and purpose.

I also liked the fact that right after I made my choice I got to see my actual LI before the curtains fell.

It wasn't perfect, but overall I think the team did a great job with this package. It has restored my faith in BW as a studio. For the longest time I felt that they told the best stories in the industry. After playing the vanilla ME3 endings I wasn't sure they deserved that title. Now, I feel like they have gone a long way towards regaining that status...IMHO.

[MassEffect762]

You can tell they want to use Synthesis as cannon.

Replace stargazer and child with LI scene.(i.e. blue babies)

Only part that remotely 'moved' me was when Liara(my LI) places my name up on the memorial board.

Control was freaky, sad, kinda cool.

Synthesis was freaky, kinda cool, kinda lame.

Refusal was lame.

Destroy was sad, felt most human, incomplete.(gasp)

It was better but still lacking. I didn't feel like a hero. I didn't have the chance to see her again.(LI)

I'm amazed they didn't use IT, would've pulled their bums out the fire.

Can't win em all I suppose, guess I'll add ME to the list.

[CaptainDope]

Overall, it is definitely quite a big improvmenet. It did explain some of the questions and fix a few plotholes. I liked they explained how your squad mates got onboard the Normandy. The added dialogue for the
catalyst was great and made more sense. He explained your choices and his reason clearly. The 4th ending, the "I reject your choices" was a decent surprise and addition. I chose the destroy ending, and I loved watching the victory scene with the Krogan and Asari. Too bad the Turiandid not get one too. Thankfully, the relays were only "damaged" and notcompletely destroyed. And I was relieved to see the crew was not stranded for long. Hackett's final speech was great (Henriksen is a veryskilled voice actor).The ending feels much better and happier now. The quick shots of the ME2 squad members (both dead and alive) were also plesant to see.

Overall, I am almost satisfied. There was just ONE thing missing. I wish the ending could have lasted just another minute to show a reunion between Shepard and LI, over even the whole crew.

It's better, but that isn't saying much. I'm still not too fond of the endings, and honestly I don't care anymore.

[Malanek]

I thought it was decent. Kind of disappointed the indoctrination theory didn't play out, I thought that would have been a more clever story and probably Biowares best ever twist. But it wasn't to be. If the EC had been the original ending I don't think I would have ever had a problem with it...but having it come out 3 months later does ruin the impact a bit.

EC didn't change anything, all it is is the exact same rubbish we were served 4 months ago just more of it. plot holes galore, abandoned plot, unexplained events, anything and everything that happened in regular ME3 stayed in EC ME3, they just gave us a different cutscene and still images with voice over for each one. total garbage.

shepard still takes a breath in london at the end of destroy, so it a dream or not? make up your mind bioware!

[Roarkshop]

They never claimed they were going to change it and I'm glad they didn't. Not that I was happy with The whole "pick your door" options, but if bioware had completely caved to the fans and retconned the whole ending I would have been disappointed. I'm glad they stuck to their guns and used the ending they wanted to use while still expanding enough on that to answer some questions that sorely needed answering. I am satisfied.

In a world full of mindless shooters and mediocrity the fact that Bioware Was able to create something that so many are so passionate about to make them as outraged as they are, I tip my hat to them. They make a story you can care about and that's something to be proud of. So their ending wasn't perfect. It wasn't even great. But this remains one of the best interactive stories ever told and I'm satisfied. I will continue to support games by bioware for a long time because they have proven time and again that they write one hell of a story, give us characters we can fall in love with, and they are always listening.

[SuperZombieChow]

In my opinion EC made the endings "good enough". Still not amazing, and I still think they played a little too much Deus Ex before writing up the entire catalyst scene, but it works for me. The relays can be rebuilt, civilization goes on, ding dong the reapers are dead.

[Siansonea]

So far my opinion is "it's taking forever to download".

[Merwanor]

To me, this EC saved the whole series, I can't believe it did not ship like this. It is not perfect, as I wish there was more new footage of our war assets, but the ending itself was improved so much that I wonder how it got released without this content.

Thank you Bioware!

[Hicks233]

Control - Creepy as ever. Just waiting for power to corrupt Spacemagic-Shep.
Synthesis - No... just no. Bad Bioware. BAD! Who's pet theory is that crap?!
Destroy - Still a strong choice.
Reject - Why??!! Why did they not run with IT?! This would have been ideal. You hear "So be it!" then Shep wakes up back in London. Then we're back to the status quo of still needing an ending. Could have been brilliant. Mildly satisfying as it is though.

EC was a step in the right direction (in some ways) just not enough. Now it's down from red/green/blue to normal eyes/glowy eyes.

[m4sterch3f]

Destruction ending still gave me goosebumps don't know if it was just joker and garrus but I am satisfied bring on ME3 the lost episodes!!  coming back to my goosebumps I know im not the only one and I have spend a good part of my days playing video games and the scene with the Normandy and Joker speeding away from the blast is the most epic scene I have seen in recent history I really cant think of another game that had me like wow and gave me chills.  Terrible ending or not that scene did it for me

Sooooo much better than the originals. I feel like I can actually play ME again.  I wish they were that way at release.Great job with the fix Bioware. You done good. Oh and thanking the fans at the end was a nice touch. Better than buy dlc.

[kittygirl27]

They did fill in some of the plot holes, but I still would of liked to seen my Shepard and her LI Garrus reunited at the end. Maybe in a wedding or something just to truly make it a happy ending.

[JamieCOTC]

Better than the original and did some good things, but also lacking quite a bit. I don't buy that the singularity is inevitable, even if it's just in the ME universe. And I certainly don't buy that the only way to stop it is to create Reapers, all of which is the crux of the problem w/ the ending. At least for me.

Modifié par JamieCOTC, 27 juin 2012 - 02:51 .

[RagdollFrey]

I think they should have taken the indoctrination theory and run with it, even if that wasn't their original idea! Maybe in place of the new reject ending.

As it is...I like the new details for the endings. But I wish that, for control and destroy, the crew gets to see Shepard again. Although i'm still a little confused as to how the control ending worked, so maybe just the destroy one. A big reunion with a focus on LIs

[TLK Spires]

it's absolute horse ****, and the only way anybody could be willing to accept it as good quality is if they simply didn't give enough of a damn to find out why it was terrible from an objective point of view, or they just don't want to question authority.


it. ****ing. blows.

Stop complaining, they're probably losing money off of this just for us, because it's free.
