Well this Retaker found the EC acceptable, so high fives are in order as the fans allowed this to even happen. Definitely beats the original ending.

I am satisfied because I know that a reunion is possible and heavily implied so I like it. More importantly, the EC has given me the "I feel like playing Mass Effect again" feeling, which is always good.


Ditto

But now what will I talk about with the EC released?

I can't just tease the Synthesis people all the time.


Talk about what the next DLC will hold? Image IPB

Well, at least the EC didn't make things worse. That's positive I guess :happy:

As someone who has rolled her eyes at some of the more extreme Retakers...

I want to say thanks. The EC provided nearly everything I had hoped for. (Sorry to those who didn't get that. I know that there are several of you) It's thanks to your persistence, cupcakes, donations etc. that this DLC came about. It enriched my ME3 experience in many ways and I cannot imagine the game without it.

So, from a doubter, once more: Thank you. I know this probably means little to nothing. But I just wanted to express my gratitude & give credit where it's due.
And thank you, Bioware as well. :)


Hey!

I was debating where to put my feelings on the extended cut. I think this thread is the best choice. :)
(I am one of the ReTakers) and throughout this whole 3 month ordeal, I've tried to be civil and at the same time, express my frustration to BioWare.

I just wanted to say, that the new extended cut ending is much better than the original ending(s). (I chose destroy, have not seen the others yet.) Is it everything I wanted? No, but it is much better.

I agree with some posters here on BSN who still feel slighted by how BioWare/EA handled this whole thing. However, I am glad EA/BW were able to swallow enough pride to deliver the EC (for free!) to give the fans of the story a better ending. This ending is much more digestable than the original ones and while the choices we made in the first 2 games still don't really matter, I finally feel like my Shepard "won". That's all I really wanted.

Thanks for starting this thread, Persephone, thanks to all the other retakers and yes, thanks to BioWare for attempting to mend that bridge they tried really hard to burn.

I still dislike the ending, I can only hope for a new game series that captures what ME1 and 2 had.

I haven't been able to play the EC yet, but I hope I share the same feeling that you do about it. Glad that you enjoyed it.


If you haven't played the EC yet do not read the forums about it, find a way to download it and play it through, so you get your own impressions of it :lol: I personaly loved it and I agree with 
Persephone.

I'm planning to write a review later tonight. I've seen the Youtube version of what will most likely be my ending.

I'm very happy right now. Very.

Happy to have been a part of Retake for the first month & a half or so. Endings aren't perfect, but we got an improvement.

Congratz.


Excuse me?

I was neither being insincere nor smug. I meant every word.

I guess some people just HAVE to be bitter and assume others are too. Yeesh.:bandit:

it was a step in the right direction but it is not there yet to do a good ending. it didn´t make it worse but somehow it is missing one final part. in my opinion

"The reunion of squadmates!

I don't like the ending as it is and no explanations or cutscenes can change that for my part. I dl'd it but i wont pain myself to hear explanations. I see shepard as a soldier in the alliance navy. Fighting for Earth.. i never hoped for spaceJesus and the rays of cosmic salvation, so the EC is just 2 gb of complete stupid to me :( My ME3 ending is end of ME2 or more so after Arrial DLC when meeting Hackett, or possibly in ME3 after Illusive Mans' base. After that it's just Space DA2 Magic Roll the dice of what ending we make gig.. Can't like it with my way of playinjg shepard, not even with the screw you choice i read about. And fact Geth IV exists in certain circumstances or why Destroying Rachni has no impact. ME3 is just pure Garbage compared to ME1 and 2 in my opinion cause it turns out the way it does. And saving council.. did nothing.. deny specter status in ME2 did nothing.. Pha.. ME3 is odd but fun to play, Not sure i'd put it as Mass Effect 3 tho, maybe ME v3, the standalone you can add some variety to at it's best. We play ME 1 and 2, and our choices can have ramifications in ME3, and CAN certainly was valuable here for bioware, they didnt have to gove a damn and actually do so.

Just happy some people got what they hoped for.

I didn't like the endings. So, no. That's not true.

Maybe you thought you didn't like the endings until it was explained to you in a manner similar Sesame Street? There is nothing in the EC that a person with half an imagination couldn't have presumed. I hate how you people must treat literature.

I didn't hate the endings. I thought they needed work and polish. Which they now have, IMHO.

To be fair, the original endings had the relays exploding (and I recall some developers discussing how the galaxy would be better off w/o them).
Also, the citadel looked like it was going to be destroyed(leaving me no idea how shep survived).
Also, the Normandy did not look like it would be space-worthy again.

...Other than that, yeah, destroy was pretty much the same as my head cannon.

I despised the original endings, but I am alright with these ones, they are acceptable now.

It's a shame that the final levels are so atrociously bad to play through, as that's what is stopping me from playing them again to see the other endings.

Thanks Retakers!

the upgraded soundtracks made even more satisfied, and I am sure that you should give more credit to Bioware for listening to people. You should blame EA for pushing BW to finish the game so quick

I can understand why someone didnt like the endings regardless of how it turned out. Or didn't like em before but does now. Just cause someone say they like hamburgers doesn't mean they has to like it without the cheese and some pickles and a squrt of ketchup. Now they got that on thair hamburger and it is more to thair taste and they actually like it.

I just watched the endings on youtube.... I like them a lot more than the original ending. I'm glad Bioware changed their ending enough to please us while still holding on to their ideas. That was all I was expecting, so well done for free content.
