Would there have been an ending controversy if the game had shipped with the EC's endings?

Through the last two games, We're told its not impossible to kill the Reapers, just very dificult and that it'll take the entire galaxy to do so (Vigil, Mass Effect 1). Mass Effect's Theme is uniting everyone to defeat a threat to all.

This is dropped in ME3 completely. Wat?


Funny. I don't remember any sort of plan, realistic or otherwise, to defeat the Reapem armada we see at the end of ME2.


Vigil: "Sovrign (And, by extention, the Reapers) is not invinvible. Revealing its true nature would have united the forces of every organic species against it. Even a Reaper couldn't survive such odds."

This has always said to me from day 1 that if uniting everyone in the galaxy was an complete suicide for a Reaper, then uniting everyone against the Reapers as a whole would give us an even playing field. Nothing in the series has ever changed that idea; heck, Mass Effect 2 hammered it in more with such a multi-species/background team united to extereminate the Collectors.

Then we get to ME3 and its hammered in every other conversation with Hackett or Anderson or anyone really that The Crucible is our only hope and that its a suicide otherwise. On top of that, They were expecting me to put my faith in some Prothean Superweapon that we have no idea what it does yet we somehow guess that it'll extereminate the Reapers? I don't see how both are consistant.

Espicially with on of Hackett's conversations in the late game saying that we don't know what the Crucible does one second and then saying that it will kill the Reapers the next.

The EC adds nothing, same tasteless endings with some very shallow filler. The game with or without the EC comes up short. It feels rushed, from the almost pointless Citadel go quests to the extremely poor use of war assets within the game (even poor old NWN2 did a better job), horrid texturing, linearity was enough to make you sleep, auto dialogue, disjointed story and plot holes The return to Earth was an emotionless poor map almost devoid of any worth while story (this should of been the high point of the game, it feels more like a flat uninspiring FPS shooter map) that led straight to rgb hell. BW are doing what they do best, turning their back on established fan bases to attract another, but this time they want fans that can be appeased with lease effort on their part, as they milk their good will created by each successive fan base... one day the cow will be dry.

lets put it simply in place
EC is nothing
and the ending is not the only bad thing in ME3
here few things in a nutshell
1.where is harbinger? the strongest and oldest reaper the one 90% of ME2 story is wrapped around does not even get 1 line of dialog the whole ME3 game? that's just pathetic

2.no side story just one big junky pile of garbage story that all side story's like old companions
is basically forcefully melded inside the main story for instance ME1- you can skip recruiting garrus he is SIDE QUEST recruitment i think Wrex as well didn't really test that one
cuz gotta have wrex to eat people
take ME2 - loyalty quests only optional,grunt optional,i think samara is optional,alot of other side quests you are not required to finish the require more then "go to that solar system and scan the planet to "press-get" the item that was asked for

3.more then that ME3 is almost a purely 3rd person shooter game
take Deus ex human revolution its FPS with a touch of RPG and so is ME3 a 3rd person shooter with a touch of RPG not the other way around

4.very loose story connection to ME1-2
the reapers go from super highly intelligent synthetic race
to galactic toys

5 final ending no matter what you do or choose it does not matter since its over
all you get is useless assets that change nothing after some point

so there you go and i can name some more
ME3 is a bad game thats just the way it is
