No, not really. If I want my Shep to return to all these people, I'll just pick high-EMS destroy. Th endings are great anyway, so I really don't see the issue here.

If these endings are 'great' then the gaming industry's standards really are low these days...

its better than a lot of other games endings this past year. AC3, FC3, BL2.....all their conclusions are worse than ME3's. And yet, all of them were up for GOTY.

Agreed. Comparing crap against crap leaves alot to be desired.

Tell me, do you find hanging out with your friends pointless and sad because you are going to die someday?

Dear Whedon,

YES.

I try to grab all the happiness and enjoyment I can out of life, but...

yes.

I think the difference the OP means is, after you witness your own death and the death and destruction of everything you hold dear, can you enjoy building that up KNOWING what is going to happen?

It's a common concept, in speculative fiction at least, that know the time and cause of your own death drains a person of all desire to live.

OP, you don't have to download the DLC if you feel that way.

Exactly, don't support Bioware by purchasing this, money speaks.  

[Clayless]

Here's an idea for you OP:

Don't get it then.

I know it's pretty shocking that you can do that eh.

Huh? If you don't want everything you hold dear destroyed, just don't pick Refuse. It's not rocket science.

Hey, I'm not the one crying for almost an year about a video game. I'm just stating facts. Speaking of which, if the whiners could take the hint after EC (I.E: We will not release any more ending content) we would not be having this conversation right now. But oh, I don't know why i'm telling you that, i'm sure someone like you has been told 100 times already.

I'm telling people to not lash out for a year. So I lash out for a year.

Oh Alan,  you're so silly being the White Knight for Bioware.  I wouldnt at all be suprised if you were one of the developers child or something similar.

If you cant understand the gist of why people complain about the ending,  you shouldnt even bother.  You're never going to "win" that argument.  I'll make it simple for you though,  what Merin was driving at was a little something called closure,  a discussion I've never seen you fully defend well.   Your quest is set forth,  tally-ho!

People shouldn't post nonsense instead of their actual arguments. If he doesn't mean to talk about "the death and destruction of everything you hold dear", he shouldn't type "the death and destruction of everything you hold dear."

That's hardly a ringing endorsement for ME3...

And if it's your personal values you hold dear, which every single ending choice forces me to betray?

Ahh well, it would probably the same if we had the chance to protest online when ME just came out.

What IS all that?

That's Customer Feedback. You know, the thing that BioWare pretends doesn't exist unless it contains religious imagery about their company.

It looks like a horrible way to having customer feedback. 

[SurfaceBeneath]

No war has ever been won with "personal values".

You win by sacrifice. Shepard isn't "betraying" anyone by choosing destroy. He's sacrificing a group of willing individuals who are already choosing to risk their lives to save a larger whole. That's a choice that gets made in war all the time.

Looks like all three of you are in agreement. 

Don't ask me -- I haven't actually played any of those other games. Should I?

Funny I don't remember Shepard calling the Normandy or Sword Fleet, saying "I'm about to end the Reapers, but this is going to kill all synthetic life.  I'm sorry"

 Nor do I recall EDI or the geth saying "I understand, Commander.  It has been an honor"

[SurfaceBeneath]

Yeah, usually generals don't tell the units they send to die that they're going to die either.

They say, "Hey, you're going to attack here. You know the risks. Good luck."

War sucks. But every Geth and EDI was willing to die to stop the Reapers. Thems the breaks.

I haven't either, but then Borderlands 1 bored me after a single playthrough, and I never even got through Assassin's Creed 2.

But just because one game's, or even three games' endings sucked doesn't mean Mass Effect 3 should get a pass.

[MegaSovereign]

If sacrifices are considered unacceptable in all cases then how did you guys even get passed Virmire.

[ObserverStatus]

Nope, this romance dlc will give Shepard to opt out of Priority: Earth. Death by snu snu @ the hands of Morinth.
