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

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

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

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

I doubt anyone who spends any prolonged period of time on these forums could be considered sane.

Post of the day... right there for you! Thank you. You made my day!

 I just finished ME3 paragon full ending, and after playing ME and ME2, I expected much more.

This is for you.



No one says it better. If you're fluent in German, turn off the sound.

In a way i guess i'm glad the ending was kinda crap, as it "inspired" alot of fanfiction writers to write some truly epic stories.

I finished ME3 a few days ago and think it's a great game. I didn't feel disappointed since my expectations weren't high after hearing all people complain about the ending. I chose the destroy ending with high EMS. I was actually surprised Shepard survived but I guess they have a way to bring him back if they ever decide to do a sequel.

[Kataphrut94]

Nah, it's just a bit of harmless silliness. It's only depressing if you pick the wrong ending.

[SilJeff]

I'm okay with the endings (mostly the paragon control). I don't care what the dislikers or the haters say.

I hated the vanilla endings, but even that didn't stop me from replaying the game. 5 minutes doesn't overpower 40 hours (or 100 if you are playing the whole trilogy) for me, ever. 95% good is still an A.

Also, I do not like MEHEM, but like someone said before, I won't deny that whoever made it did a good job.

Strange.

I finished Mass Effect 3 and didn't feel what you're describing. Odd, isn't it?

Where was this thread a year and a half ago?

[Brovikk Rasputin]

Whatever you do, don't visit this forum. It'll drive you insane with the endless threads going "boohooo me not like ending" for almost a year and a half.

Should've downloaded the Extended Cut, OP. It fixes everything.

really? it re-do all the Priority:Earth mission, making it similar to the suicide mission but with all the races and fighters you have acquired during the entire game? give meaning to the EMS? give the chance to see our allies and ME2 companions fight with us? let us speak for the last time with Harby?take away Casper?eliminate Shepard's dementia of the last minutes of the game?give a reasonable and well explained insight on the reasons of the reapers?take away the forced sacrife with no attacment at all?give us a chance to actually see a reunion of Shepard with her crew?have we guided a Mako?have you have a sence of esultation ending the game?

If you had those things in your ending without MEHEM (and you have just a few of those with that mod), I guess I played a different EC than you.

Dont feed the troll, no good ever comes out of it.
But the title really should be dont play mass effect 3, you will be dissapointed when you find out shepard has spent the last six months playing video games in vancouver.
People put too much emphasize on the ballons.

Point Proven.

Rubbish, it's a great game and NOT disappointing after the EC. Nuff said.

Nice to see people still getting to the endings for the first time in their gaming lives.

And while I agree that the endings are horrible, I must disagree with the OP saying not to play to the end.

The endings, even after the ECDLC are horrible, yet must be experienced. BW obviously thought that this is what their fans want. Or decided on an idea when time was running out and ran with it.

Fans have to tell them this is not the case. And the only way to do that is to experience the ending of the game so they can tell BW what it was they didn't like about the way the end game of the trilogy was executed.

Cause it doesn't have just one singular issue at the heart of the problem. The endings bring up many issues that all have to be taken into account. And preventing this sort of thing from happening again in future releases, through fan feedback, is the responsibility of any gamer who wants to see their favourite game developers thrive in a hard market.

Lolz, and how long have the BSNers been talking about this, since forever now. And the only thing I would complain about ME is that it wasn't over the top "Open Minded" to the point of awkwardness(well, towards some or a lot of people). I never got a Kromance, and so, yeah, disappointed, but nonetheless, a Turian one was great!

Back to topic: Yes, it is disappointing that speculation drowns the ending and all that other good stuff. I don't regret playing Mass Effect 3 though. I actually really loved the story and its characters. The ending of Mass Effect 3 for the Destroy High EMS Ending is very fake and mostly ominous. You see, Shepard never should have lived from the destruction of the Citadel and Crucible, because that explosion looks way too devastating and Shepard cannot breathe in space. I prefer moderate EMS. Oh, and one last thing, I miss drinking on the Normandy and hanging out with my ME2 crew. :'-( Hooray for Citadel DLC! :-D

It's fairly subpar. Arguably even bad.

[voteDC]

The issue for me was that Bioware wrapped up the grand story of defeating the reapers but forgot why people loved the games so much...the characters.

I read that Bioware were shocked that people thought that the turians and quarians were going to starve. Well with the relays exploding and the codex telling us exactly how long travel between systems takes even at FTL, how were people meant to think otherwise?

The same with the Citadel exploding. How were people meant to think anything other than everyone on there dies, thereby making fighting so hard to save them pretty much pointless in the grand scheme of things. Not to mention that as soon as the Reapers took the Citadel, they would have begun harvesting the people on board...back in the people blender for you Kelly.

Bioware wanted a bittersweet ending. Well they remembered the bitter but forgot to add the sweet.

You don't make a character focused game and then shift the focus away from them at the end.

I remember finishing Dragon Age: Origins and feeling genuine emotion at the text screens, especially at the Leliana one (I romanced her) and at Sten's. Little things such as a barman dying in the battle of Redcliffe or helping a Dwarf start a chantry in Orzammar were touched on, all alongside the big decisions of the game such as who became ruler of Ferelden, the Dwarven King and who you recruited out of the Elves and the Werewolves.

When finishing Mass Effect 3 all I felt was numb, a sense of "meh!" fell over me. I didn't feel as if I had really accomplished anything because I never got to find out the results of my actions.

Fortunately the Extended Cut went some way to remedying this. It did however feel quite forced into the planned grand, speculative, ending they wanted but I applaud them for making the effort.

Now though I confess to using the MEHEM for most of my plays though the game. I still occasionally uninstall it and pick an official ending but over-all a fan creation, for me, wraps the trilogy up in a far better manner.

And also arguably good.

I literally just laugh when someone tries to say that ME3 is a bad game overall.

Tell me, if ME3 is subpar, what would you say is a game that is exactly on par? Your standards must be pretty bloody high.

The only person I hear crying is you, Brovikk.  You cry a lot about people who have a different point of view than you.  Why so full of cry?

Just to offer one possible explanation.

It could be that when somone tries to argue something that's positive, they're labelled as troll, boot-licker or being in the pocket of EA or Bioware (2 of those in this thread already).

And yet when somebody makes a thread to try and focus on the positive aspects of ME3, particularly the ending, it gets trolled and derailed with negitivity by multiple people. Who all of a sudden "have the right to state their opinions".

Surely anyone here can see the contradiction.

Damn. They did the same thing with KOTOR2. Lost the characters at the end.

Though on that occasion they remembered to add the character's who had the largest role of the antagonist for the protag to battle against, so it wasn't all bad. But still......

I'll never know what happened to the crew of the Ebon Hawke. There is enough there to speculate, but still......

There is more satisfaction to be had in seeing their stories play out, than hearing about what will happen to them......

.........then the planet explodes........

........and you don't know how they got off the planet when your character took the only ship and set off again, to fight the good fight, never to return.

Pretty sure the Probe died though.
