Y'know, I'm just gonna say it.
I didn't find ME3's ending that bad.
They're not that bad, but they certainly don't give closure for the Destroy Ending, which is the only ending where your Shepard can live. People are better off choosing Blue or Green if they want actual closure. Red is just a cliffhanger.

It really wasn't. People just didn't like the fact that they felt their choice was meaningless and someone would lose either way. Personally, I think many just missed the entire point of the situation altogether. That won't be happening with DAI though as BioWare is taking cues from BGS.
Honestly all this "Compare ME3 with DAI3" is seriously getting just annoying and overrated 
They are two different games with nothing in common except producers so stop comparing these games.That is same as comparing COD with Skyrim...Jesus 
!
You're going to defeat the evil bad guy and live happily ever after.
It really wasn't.
Yes. Yes, it was.

I wouldn't say that. Shepard's mission was over. The fact that he lives or dies doesn't really matter as it wasn't relevant.
Back on topic though, the Inquisitor probably cannot die regardless of what you do.
Yes. Yes, it was.
Umm... Matter of opinion actually. You say yes, I say no.

The thing is, we don't all think the same thing about Shepard. To a lot of people out there, Shepard mattered more than the rest. To me he was one of my heroes. It was really hard for me to let go of him.
Personally I think that is a little sad that Bioware should be afraid to have bad things happen to the Main character because of the backlash they will receive if they don't give their fans a Mary Sue happy ending.
I hate this as well. If the ending is "safe" as in boring and predictable, then we've only got ourselves to blame.
Dragon age ending = good
Dragon age 2 cliffhanger = bad

The solution is simple - Do not buy the game
Wouldn't be the same thing, really.
The Inquisitor is a stand alone character, and the arc might make sense in the context of the story for DA:I. It was a possibility in Origins, but not a requirement. Neither example would really compare with the ending of ME 3.

Don't get me wrong, I cared about my Shepard as much as anyone else. I'm just saying that there wasn't really a cliffhanger. For one to have existed, that would have suggested that the reaper threat wasn't entirely eliminated or some aspect of the plot wasn't completely wrapped up. We know for a fact that the final decision resolved the conflict, one way or another. Shepard's fate, while important, doesn't change the fact that his/her story is officially over. I personally chose the Destroy ending, so I'm perfectly fine knowing that my Shepard survived. That's enough for me.
Sadly, I don't believe will see anything risky or ambitious in terms of a final ending for any BioWare game for quite a while due to how ME3 was received.
Y'know, I'm just gonna say it.

I agree.
I had no issues with Shep's death. It was a galaxy ending war. Casualties and sacrifices are to be expected. And Shep went out like a true hero. Can't ask for more.
There were 2 issues I had with ME3 ending.
First. Not getting a look at what happened with our companions in the after math. But the free extended ending took care of that for me.
Second. THAT F-ING GREEN ENDING. That just pissed me off to no end. Never should have been an option.
I hate this as well. If the ending is "safe" as in boring and predictable, then we've only got ourselves to blame.
If the only choice is between a safe ending and a nonsensical piece of railroading garbage, I'll take the safe one, thank you very much.
I don't mind tragic endings at all. Read Dead Redemption has one of my favorite endings, and it's depressing stuff. But ME3's ending didn't suck because it was tragic. To me it sucked because it came out of left field, boiled down the core conflict of the series to a ridiculous programming error, and your ''choices'' basically amounted to ''pick your poison''. It was just a bad ending irrespective of the fact that it was tragic or not.
I doubt Inquisition will go this way. Bioware won't want a second backlash like that. But I still do hope victory doesn't come easy, if it comes at all, and that we have more actual choices in our ending than in ME3 or DA2. Origins is a good model for that.
I hate this as well. If the ending is "safe" as in boring and predictable, then we've only got ourselves to blame.
If we die, we're just gonna rise again like a good messiah.
Was this really an elephant in the room...?
They won't. You really think Bioware wants to hear us with fan rage for another two years?
Pfft, implying people have stopped. XD
I agree.

Synthesis is just about as practical as Refusal. It's so much a fairy tale and unrealistic that I believe starchild was just using Shepard to take control of all living organics. Why would anyone ever want to combine synethics and organics otherwise? The idea that it would end future conflict is silly as organics were warring with other organics far more often than the geth.
I'm pretty convinced there'll be a possibility to have your inquisitor die in the ending, just like there also was in DA:O and ME2. I strongly doubt it will be the only option, though.
I hated the ME3 endings, but I'm totally for having one ending (or several endings) where your inquisitor kicks the bucket as long as there's the possibility to get an ending where he/she doesn't. I also don't think that Shep dying was the major problem with the ME3 endings.
People are mentioning reviewers saying you can continue playing after you beat it. But one reviewer mentioned it in a way that made it sound similar to how ME3 handled it. Where you're back at the map before you initiate the final battle.
It's not, they even said on one of the streams that certain dungeons are really designed to be handled post-game, or at least to be meaningful to do after finishing the main story.
I seriously doubt the Inquisitor will see his/her demise, given the existence of post game content. However, maybe post game stuff will persist before some predetermined point in the game to allow for dramatic, irreversible consequences, but somehow I doubt it, given that most likely Bioware is less willing to take risks in their stories now with what happened with Mass Effect 3's ending:
Retour en haut
