I feel like you left something out of the title OP..

"... Unless you have MEHEM"

Bad fanfiction doesn't count

You know things are bad when "bad fanfiction" is preferred over the "official endings"

Dear OP: Yes, we know.

I wouldn't be surprised if this gets locked, even though it is entirely topical.

Recommend pulling the plug after 'The best seats in the house' line. Because it is clearly all downhill once Glowjob opens his mouth....

I did it several times and I liked it. But thanks for the warning... next time I'll make sure not to play it.

Oh, and welcome to the world of different tastes and people.

Ending was bad, but it failed to depress me.

I wasn't disappointed.

Welcome in world of different tastes, demands and opinions.

Nor was I.

I liked the vanilla ending as well, except for the ME2/3 romances being excluded from Shepard's flashbacks when he's making the choice. Being defaulted to Liara if you didn't romance Ashley or Kaidan was a little annoying.

One thing I don't particularly like about Extended Cut was that they changed the music during the Catalyst scene. It's a stretched out version of the original that's off sync with the flow of the scene. A good cutscene has music that hits certain notes at times appropriate to the emotion they're trying to evoke. The vanilla had that spot on, but Extended Cut threw it off. To elaborate at which moment I'm describing, I'm referring to the vanilla's moment where the violin started as the Catalyst was telling the Reaper's purpose("The created will always rebel against their creators"). The extended cut version doesn't do that.

It's not the first time fans have deluded themselves with bad fanfiction when the ending to something isn't to their liking

Fan delusion vs. Bioware delusion? I think we lose either way. But from what I hear, the MEHEM at least gets rid of the Catalyst. That alone makes me wish it was available for 360.

Yeah, just don't spend too much time thinking or brooding about it. It will get worse with time.

The mad hanar speaks truth.  Listen to its wisdom.

To me this is balanced out by the improved "An End Once and for All". Specifically the moment when the camera fades out on Shepard and fades into the war going on when the main piano theme starts.

Tough to pick. Both pieces of music were absolutely fantastic and did a great job of capturing their respective moments.

Deluded enough for a team of them spending months creating and refining a new ending?  Deluded enough that even a year after release, still gets over ten thousand downloads from the BSN alone?  Heck, can you imagine how many there'd be if it was available on all platforms?

I say it's a better, more desirable delusion than what Bioware rammed down our throats.  And a lot of others agree

[dreamgazer]

Did that just last week, actually. Oops. No depression, and I still have my soul.

It's still flawed, frustrating, and vague---but it's also more tolerable and interesting than most of the alternatives I've read (and seen).

And you know that some people downloaded it just to try it? Or like another optional ending?

Simply download doesn't tell you anything about opinion on original endings or how much person who downloaded it was happy with it.

I like original endings, I don't like MEHEM (yet I'm able to admit it was great work from its creator) but you just used me in your statistic too.

Wrong place wrong time OP

[IntelligentME3Fanboy]

MEHEM is disgusting

[Dubozz]

More like ending is disgusting.

[FreshRevenge]

Oh My God. You weren't there in the beginning. That would of been a severe low blow to the groin. I still can't get that out of my head. I just dropped the controller saying WTF WTF and this is before I even made any decisions. The decisions were downright not good. They're still not good, even with the refusal, it isn't good. How Bioware could turn the game in a Deus Ex is beyond me? They should of left Shepard dead at the beginning of ME2. That would of been a good story!

just finished the trilogy myself. And since I recently purchased the games I can't compare the original ending to the extended cut, but it turned out ok for me. Even though I was scratching my head afterwards.

Anyone who laps up what they fed their fans in that ending are the deluded ones. We're the only sane ones here!
