Did you do the N7 missions?[/QUOTE]
I rewrote the Heretics, saved Tali's reputation, saved the Admiral on Rannoch, and destroyed the geth squadron.
is this some kind of bug or something?
Hey do you guys remember when escapist had that huge write-up about whether to rewrite or destroy the heretics? [sp] yeah, to bad they wasted their time on that :/ [/sp]
Edit: seriously the writer of that article must be pissed.
[QUOTE=DX_V;35090687]Look at you.
Anyway, having a few fun missions means nothing to me if the thing I was working for and the thing they were leading up to is utter shit. 'Deal with it', what a compelling argument, "It's shit but whatever you shouldn't be disappointed because some dialogue and missions were alright". That's some funny ass shit.[/QUOTE]
You must be terrible at relationships, it's all going to end in a breakup or death after all. I guess for journey vs destination you'd be just as happy drugged unconscious for the journey.
There's always shit bits in experiences, absolutely everything has a shit part, this game had it at the end. You can be pissed at the end, but the rest of the game doesn't vanish because of it.
Man, I'm doing a Renegade run, and I've only played to the part where you can actually walk on the Normandy, and [sp]I talked to James, and told him not to call me Lola (Femshep)[/sp] and I just felt like shit. Glad I usually play Paragon.
Has anyone figured out what the best weapons in the game are?

I think Mass Effect 3 had as good of a story as Mass Effect 1 up until the end.
I can somewhat understand why the endings were so bad, I mean this was meant to be an unstoppable force bent on eradicating life.
But the game really never made you feel that. It was too calm.
And after ME1 and ME2 you kinda expect to have a "Superhero" type ending where Shepard saves the day.
It was kind of annoying that the beacon, and everything we fought for in previous games effectively meant nothing.
Yes, we saved the world. But at the cost of our character? Not fair, they should have at the very least done it tastefully and shown us what we accomplished with our sacrifice.

That's is why the outrage is so great at the moment, they promised a proper conclusion to everything and they did the complete opposite.

This is so goddamn stupid, I don't even-
'Shit bits in an experience' isn't the same as having the ending be shit. When the final installment of a trilogy is garbage, as this ending is, it doesn't just leave a sour taste in your mouth. It cheapens the entire franchise, makes it less exciting and meaningful when you know that all you get for all your time invested is different fucking colors. The journey doesn't mean all that much if it doesn't amount to anything. It would be like going to the playoffs and then getting blown out in the championship. Sure you got there, but when you did you got kicked in the ass and laughed at. Kind of pointless.
Not to mention nothing is explained, you aren't given any sense of closure. It just leaves you with more questions. It's hardly an ending at all.
I know they dump you back before the Cerberus base with a "wait for dlc", makes me wonder if they've not finished the game, I mean it sure feels hella unpolished.
On the bright side least Tali never got pregnant...I hope
Is it impossible to get the Eclipse's alliance if you don't release that crazy Asari bitch? She mentioned something about her second in command, and I thought, "If I can dispose of this psychopath that other person can assume control and perhaps they'll be slightly more diplomatic," so I told Bailey I'd look for 'another solution' (that was the jist of the dialogue option) and now... nothing. No journal update, Bailey isn't saying anything relating to the subject, I can't talk to the Turian in the C-Sec holding area on the Presidium, Aria's not changing her dialogue either.
What do Facepunch?

What the shit are you talking about? So you say if the ending of an awesome film would be just... I don't know. A huge cock right in your face? Or, I don't know, a shitting mexican (or any other) or something? That would be okay with you? Or the same with a book. Awesome, reads like a charm, interesting and all and then suddenly, final words: "and now I put my helmet on and fuck you in your mouth, my dear reader, fuck you and your dog lol" - would that be okay with you too?

He compared videogame to real life relationships, come on! I have the right to exaggerate too.
Am I the only one who noticed ME3 has a Deus Ex HR feel to the soundtrack? Like "CE-Extra Creation" on the DD soundtrack screams Deus Ex HR to me, not that its a bad thing, I loved that game and its soundtrack.
So, i just finished ME3 and i've got to say, after a terrific journey through an upwards of 200 hours invested into this trilogy i'm feeling a whole host of emotions, mainly confusion. What exactly happened in the ending sequences? It was explained in a super vague way and it makes me feel like all the little intricate choices i've spent ages deciding upon in previous games mean NOTHING. So please, help me understand because i need some closure to this epic adventure.
You really can't go wrong as a Salarian Engineer fighting the Geth:

Nah, that's not so bad. Not everything goes perfectly, Moneyball didn't end with them winning the championship.
But I think there's one point you really aren't getting. The ending is shit, I pointed this out to everyone long ago, it's not news. The thing is that it doesn't ruin everything, the rest of the game is still fine. It's made less by the ending, but was it really on a knife's edge of good or bad before? Most of the game was good if you judged it by that part, and the entire thing is soiled from the shit ending, but each part can still be fine.

And what if syphilis and your dick fell off?
Also, no, [b]Arvuti[/b], I'm not saying ME3 endings made my dick fall off.
[quote]He added: "I honestly think the player base is going to be really happy with the way we've done it. You had a part in it. Every decision you've made will impact how things go. The player's also the architect of what happens."
Whether you're happy or angry at the ending, know this: it is an ending. BioWare will not do a "Lost" and leave fans with more questions than answers after finishing the game, Gamble promised.[/quote]
I liked LOST's ending better than this, AT LEAST THEY WERE ALL TOGETHER!

Nope
[sp]so i killed the quarians, adding another genocide to shepards rich list of societal destruction.[/sp]
i'm actually affected in a negative way by what i did. this is probably the first time i've ever felt that strongly in a game. Fallout's series of choices had an effect but this is a little strong considering i just kind of killed someone who was with me since the original game.
this is an evolution for gaming.
