All what I wanted is coherent narrative that´s all, endings could be depressive as the most depressive book ever made but all what I asked for was narrative. While I felt that both DE or the IT would fit much more to lore, whole ending fiasco could be even avoided if BioWare have´t decide to cut the lore into pieces and sell it later. I am offended by BioWare and EA thinking that most if not all of their customers are either mindless or in hard denial that they would screw so much... and most what I don´t like about fans in general that they they are able to deffend BioWare after what they have done, it´s not just about ending it´s about whole game - lies and deception, cutting the edges for DLCs, sloppy work, bugs, retcons, narrative in trash bin, milking the franchise with crappy writing like Paragon Lost...

I would be happy if BioWare rather admit that they screwed than what they did ...

 Simple questions, refer to title.

I feel this is a more worthwhile question than "are you happy with the ending now?"

Don't list all the things you wanted, only state the #1 thing you wanted (from your supposed list) and whether or not the ending (original or extended) delivered. And do try to elaborate a bit rather than just leaving behind terse responses.



Me: The way I see it, the aftermath of a war is more meaningful than its conclusion. Otherwise, what have you won? For that reason, I'd say what I wanted most was an epilogue. I fought for the ME-Galaxy, so I want to the galactic state-of-affairs in the wake of the war, to know that it was "worth it." To that end, the original ending clearly did not satisfy. Extended-cut, however, did do this well enough for me and it went a long way in improving my opinion of the ending.

Go!

The only thing I wanted from the ending is some kind of true galaxy acknowledgment for Shepard. S/he was unwilling hero from the very start and somehow hers/his fate is what real life keeps constantly sending as a message - never ever be a hero or an anti hero 'cause you'll get the ****ty end of the bargain... I guess that's why I made that homage video for Shepard... at the end I really felt sorry for her/him, no bitter sweet BS, just truly sorry.

Victory against the Reapers.

Yes, with one of the 4 endings, at least.

[Majin Paul]

 An huge scene about what happened after the war, I assumed beating the reapers was obvious, so I was expecting something amazing at the end.
So that's a no.

[Ticonderoga117]

A cohesive and logical ending where the conclusion is directly from -my- choices.

I did not get this, I got the antithesis of this.

This.

[1183rd Geth]

I wanted that 'victory against all odds' feeling that the Suicide run had....the feeling that if I had prepared right, and got my squad ready~I was going to kick some reapers right back to dark space! I figured my choices through the games would effect the outcome of the final mission, that the laast battle would probably be rousing and memorable.

Instead we got a colour coded travesty, and priority earth.

i wanted what the developers said they would deliver. they did not deliver.

[Soul Tumor]

See the varied endings to dragon age origins and the closure for characters and apply that to mass effect 3. That's what i wanted and no i didn't get it. Also i wanted the multiple different endings we were supposed to get. Mainly my shepard standing victorious with his crew. Oh well, nothing is going to change that now

[Dabrikishaw]

To destroy the Reapers.

You sure you mean the italed bit? It's not like we don't know that it was worth it. Any ending where the Citadel races don't get exterminated is worth it.

Go!

This. Above all else, I wanted closure. I wanted a happy ending. Shepard on rubble/taking a breath isn't really closure. The Extended cut gave us a bit of this, but not enough. I mean, Mass Effect 1 had a nice little scene after the Battle of the Citadel, even if it was to make a choice on Earth's councilor. ME2 you could talk to all your squad mates to get their opinions on your decision. That felt nice.

This as well!  A Dragon Age:Origins type victory ending would have been awesome as well.Or a KOTOR 1 type thing.



I'd also like to note a very close 2nd was all the garbage with starchild.

Go!

My first, knee-jerk response was to say 'a sliding scale of success and failure in the outcome of the Reaper War', as this would have been something shaped directly by your personal journey, but your words about an epilogue make a lot of sense and echo in large part why I wanted the variable ending.

In the end, I think it is a combo of both. I wanted to see how my choices shaped the ending I got, and how they left the Galaxy afterwards.

P.S. What people are saying about a sense of victory/triumph is also a strong contender for me. I don't feel like the concluding sequence of the game was earned by the player in any way, but was rather handed down to us from the kid, and through him from the devs.

Reunion without genocide.

Took a mod, but eventually got it.

Except your choice gewt grounded down to nothing.

Oh, is Wreave leading things without Eve and we insinuated that this won't end well? Too bad, everything is fine.

Saved the rachni? Too bad, we don't mention them.

Renegade Shepard in control of the Reapers? Oh, don't worry, everything is going to be fine. Don't worry about the army of space squids.

Did we just completely change the galaxy with some bat crazy space magic? Don't worry about it, things are so hunky dory there's extra optimism on my shoe. You don't need details, just roll with it.

[devSin]

The sense that it had all been worth it.

And no, I most certainly did not get that.

[SirLugash]

I wanted a little chat with good old Harby.
So no I didn't get it.

Apart from that I was open for surprises.
You know the rest of the story ^^

[Cutlass Jack]

I got exactly what I wanted from the ending. I just got it at Rannoch, not the actual ending.

I guess what I really mean is that I needed a better denuemont (sp?) than what we got -- none to speak of.

What was jarring about the original ending was that it seemingly closed the book shut right at the climax. WTF?

It just left me wanting. Know what I mean? Like, Shepard destroyed the Reapers and... who cares. This music doesn't fit the cinematics whatsoever and... who cares. The Normandy marooned on a mysterious planet and... who cares. Sunshine Brule is my cousin... who cares.
