Yes, there has been a lot of bigger disasters. For me Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer was much bigger dissapointment than Mass Effect 3. And people still whining about endings should stop acting like spoiled 12-year old kids and grow up.

Bolded invalidates your opinion of our space RPG

So his opinion is invalid now because he is a CoD player?  And you wonder why jackasses like you get called elitists.

Yeah because the second bolded part totally doesn't make him an elitist.

Keep trying hun.

Actualy he is right and as always you are wrong.  It's been over 7 months.  You whiners need to grow up and move on.

Deus Ex Invisible War.
Error 37
Indiana Jones 4

 I threw up a little when you said that, I had forgotten that movie even existed, thanks.

Acutally it still doesn't exist.

I purposefully avoided it and think I made a good decision.

Disaster? I enjoyed the game very much! (Sorry to see that some of you didn't).

update : my sources tell me Diablo3 has also a lackluster ending.

Ninja Gaiden 3.

I'm pretty good at dodging things like this. Its only when I've invested a lot of time in games is when I get caught. Saints Row The Third was pretty bad. It was way too silly and had no balance like the first two games. And, I don't even wanna go into what they did to Johnny Gat and the reasons why. This **** happens in movies all the time and I have yet to look at the Last Airbender or Dragonball Evolution. My childhood psyche couldn't take it.

I also heard that FF13's ending was pretty jacked up. I never finished the game, so I guess I saved myself some trouble?

If I had to draw a notable comparison, I would sat Legacy of Kain: Defiance would be a good fit, both games had detracted heavily for what made them great (Immersion-ME, Intricate design-LOK) and both for their time had near uniamious disdain for the ending both ironically, providing no closure to their series (or a lack of), the only difference between these two is at the moment is that ME3 or indeed the series isn't complete and therefore can be saved (I just don't like seeing great series go down the drain because of a lack lustre 5-10mins.)

I was attempting to make the point that seriously, yeah, the ending of Mass Effect was a let down, but there are so many worse things in the world than a disappointing (or if you want to go all out and agree with people who utterly hate it "completely **** and broken") ending to a game. I love video games too, I was just trying to point out the OP is being kind of melodramatic.

[SNascimento]

It's very rare to developers to have the courage to make a fantastic ending like Mass Effect 3's. And the reason is obvious.

[Knightly_BW]

Personally for me ME3 ain't a disaster.

I believe I saw low points of Bioware with NWN: Shadow of Underntide and Dragon Age: Awakenings. Also Dragon Age 2 can be considered as low point.

I scale games for their story, replayability and characters. Those 3 above fail on that scale to an extend.

Other games? Bioware makes the games I like. All other RPGs I played so far left no mark on me. Good for a day or two but forgetable at best.

[Restrider]

Battlestar Galactica (the new series) anyone?

I'm glad they stuck to their guns , and didn't use the EC to really alter the ending despite all the noise that was being made. Good for them.

[High Five Revival]

I'm glad they stuck to what they wanted to do too! I have no issues with the ending and thought it was a fitting conclusion to the trilogy - although thankfully not the entire Mass Effect Saga, which will continue. I am absolutely sorry that a lot of people were upset about the ending and am really excited though that they're passionate enough about it to speak up. However, I do think there's no point in continuing to complain about it because it doesn't fit what you (and I mean that in the collective sense) had in mind for the ending. Can't we just enjoy the series and thank Bioware/EA for such an amazing trilogy, plus the opportunity for more games in this universe in the future?

Or the utterly deluded pretentiousness to steal a fantastic ending and duct taping it with pride to their own flagship. Sadly it belonged to a different kind of ship and as a result it sank and took all the good parts with it.

The hatred for ME3's ending is proportional to the emotional investment people had in the series.

Man, I just love it when people make sweeping blanket statements and generalizations.  I know plenty of people who were VERY emotionally invested in the series and some of them loved the original ending and some of them hated it.  I've seen plenty of people here on the boards (I mean, the fact they are on the boards in the first place I'd say indicates a certain fanatical emotional investment, wouldn't you agree?) love and hate the endings.  So really that assertion you made there is a load of horse crap, I hope you haven't deluded yourself into believing it.

I myself was more emotionally invested than certainly any other video game series by far (I would say Zelda is close but that is a completely different animal).  I think the only series that even came close to my level of emotional investment in Mass Effect were Lost and Battlestar Galactica, maybe Breaking Bad as well at this point.  And I loved the original ME3 ending (except for the nitpicks of: a lack of context for why some squadmates would be on the Normandy at the end, a lack of context for why the Normandy was speeding away, and why Shepard didn't seem more concerned about the ramifications of "destroying mass relays" after his experiences in Arrival DLC).  That Battlestar ending was an unspeakable thing to me by the way, and Lost's finale (and most of the final season) was emotionally satisfying but intellectually disappointing.

lolwut?

What are you going on about, did you read what he wrote?

[Hexley UK]

The Star Wars prequels and Indy 4 were the only things that pissed me off as much, but at least those 2 still had endings that were faithful to their own internal logic, setting and themes.

The Matrix sequels come pretty close with the crappy ending but at least they followed there own (admittedly mental) logic.

[TheNexus]

Keep in mind, what made ME3's ending sting was that the series was consistently wonderful, and the ending just seemed so out of the ordinary.

It hurts a lot more when a good game has a strange ending, than when a crappy game is just crappy the whole way through.

Agreed, although there are alot of things I don't like about ME3 I would most likely have overlooked them and felt far more favourably about the game had the ending not been complete cow crap.
