hello! back in April, a buddy named Grub started making alternate endings for Mass Effect 3 as a writing exercise, and he wrote them in screenplay format for easy reading.

I read them and liked them a lot so I created a thread here to show them to everyone with his permission. It got  larger than we imagined, and it has its own base of fans who look forward to the next update! ::)

social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/355/index/10966771 (link to the old thread)

The thread was recently closed due to being in the wrong part of the forums for too long, but now here it is in fan creations ready to go again! You can sneak a peek at the old thread to see more details on it, as well as read a much older version than is currently being worked on (still has lots of endings of course.)

direct links to the old versions

Since the first version, Grub has been updating the story as he's been able to, adding more content and more endings for everyone. It's a big big big collection of endings, and the final count will add up to 13 uniquely different conclusions to everyones favorite trilogy! Completely revamped Destroy, Control, Synthesis, and multiple ways to reject the Catalyst's solutions! Plus original concept endings, and character conclusions for your squadmates (these last two are still heavily WIP but you can see the humble beginnings of them in the most recently/ancient version in the old thread.)

The endings only take everything up to the Extended Cut into account. he had to put a kabosh on constantly taking DLC into the story or he'd never stop rewriting everything.

The ending he's writing now is the more diplomatic approach for those who like to win using the dialogue wheel, and  is largely dependant on all the decisions you've made throughout the trilogy! So watch out for that one when the update comes! I will post a Mass Update (har har) when that day comes.

so anyway, feel free to comment on endings, give suggestions for squadmate conclusions (always open,) read old versions -- whatever! It's taking a while to release the new version, but he has not stopped!

enjoy!

Reading the Corruption ending.

Tearjerking in every way possible.

Renegade Shepard is pretty awesome in this.

Corruption and the geth soldier who saved Tali right before Destruction hit me right in the feels. Synthesis and Renegade Control terrified me.

These beat the original endings and most fan endings by a mile

These are seriously the best fan endings out on the net guys. Check out Grub's work here. I remember stumbling on them early on back on the old thread and they are still awesome. :)

I just can´t express how much better is this in comparison with any other ending, specialy the offcial, endings... good ending bad ending, bitterswet ending, and taking care of all the decission made all along the games!

THIS IS ART!

I like what I'm reading thus far. I'm reading corruption right now. Frightening really. In my opinion, you should probably transplant Tali's struggle with whoever happens to be the love interest since it does give her heavy preference in this.

Also, might want to consider transplanting Garrus out for some dialog considering he may not even be alive. LIke have Vega man the Thanix cannon in the first ending. And since Garrus does get a bit more love then anyone else.  Just a thought. Love it though. Especially how the dialog choices are totally different from the actual dialog. A prison in your own mind. I imagine this scene playing out sort of like the Arkham Asylum where it faked the computer crash. ^_^

EDIT: I'm still reading and Garrus gets ALOT Of love in the Corruption ending. And some of these are out a HORROR movie. Synthesis? Dear God. Fan ****ing tastic.

I read through these and man these are really good.

I especially like some dark variance, for instance the synthesis is really dark and messed up, damn. Nice twist, like something from a Twilight Zone.

Renegade control also --- stuff from nightmares.

The reapers winning and the refugees escaping to Andromeda was also very good. It would make an intresting game to see where this would lead.

Its too bad the real endings were nothing like these. Again fans beat the real writers by a mile.

not entirely sure! but he's doing a new paragon control ending so that may be more satisfying **shrug**

it was probably dehydration but the ending where Shepard was taken over by Harbinger made me feel ill also I loved the Renegade responses

I've read this way back last year, and these endings are all awesome. So much creativity by the fans... Only if the developers could put this much effort in the original ending...

ps: Garrus could never get too much love!

M0keys, why must you do this to us? If Grub has actually given up/stopped, please just say so, then we can put this to rest

I get sadistic pleasure out of seeing the posts slowly descend from hope into despair.
