i liked fallout 3 regardless of which ending you get i just feel that the fans overreacted
[QUOTE=Ermac20;36449786]i know but mass effect fans took it way too far even taking it to the trade commission[/QUOTE]
[B]One[/B] person did that and the majority of the "movement" refused to associate themselves with that guy for what he did.

There's gotta be another ME game..
[QUOTE=Lambeth;36445777]Gonna do the extended ending then uninstall ME3[/QUOTE]
Bingo. It's the only reason I haven't uninstalled it yet. I've played exactly one round of multiplayer.
Finally I'll be able to hear about what happened to everybody that isn't me and how they all died slow horrible deaths of starvation, then I can free the space on my hard drive and forget the last 10 minutes of this franchise ever existed.
[QUOTE=Errorproxy;36449958]There's gotta be another ME game..[/QUOTE]
I am a massive Mass Effect fan. I played the first one through 100%nearly 5 times now.
I played the second one...3 times?
The third I only played once, and I have no intentions to do another.
3 was honestly a letdown after I took it all in. I don't want another Mass Effect. The first and second were enough for me.
The series unfortunately had it's prime, and it's long past it. The writing is getting worse with each game, and the games are slowly turning more and more into Gears with more alien love.

A game where your choices matter;
Except for how you deal with the Rachni Queen
Except for what you chose to do with the Geth
Except for what you do with Maelon's research
Except for who you take to fight the Reapers (there are literally hundreds of sound files in the game the suggest that you fight directly alongside warriors from other species, yet are never heard from once you enter the endgame)
In ME1 you deal with Sovereign, a certifiable badass of a machine, who is better than you, and he knows it. And he lets you know it, too. In ME2, you get into a pissing contest with Harbinger. You exchange words. In ME3, right at the big finale, Harbinger shows up. He shoots the place up, then just takes off again. What. The fuck.
And then we get to TIM. You spend 3 games promising to blow the ever loving shit out of the Reapers. Saren tried to merge with the Reapers. And he died. TIM tried to control the Reapers. And he died. And then you bolt up the doomsday weapon, and a fucking star child that looks like a character who died in the first 10 minutes of the game shows up and tells you that it's not that simple. Regardless of what you do, everyone you fought with and everything you fought for is about to get fucked the shit up.
You just helped to unite the Geth and the Quarians after hundreds of years of civil war. And the fucking hologram says that organics and robots will never get along, because robots will eventually kill everything. So he built robots to kill everything so they don't build robots that will kill everything.
You learned about how the different species survive, what they need. And now you just stranded a few billion of them around a planet that had it's shit pushed in and there is almost no food sources left for Earth's survivors, let alone the Krogan, Quarian, Turians, Drell, Volus, Hanar, Asari and half dozen other species that are stuck there because you just blew up every freaking bus terminal in the galaxy.
That is, of course, assuming that what happened when you blew up the relay in ME2 was bullshit and you didn't actually just vaporize every colonized planet in the galaxy instead.

I really didn't want this extended ending shit. I just wanted to wash my hands and move on from the game.
Like Minority Report had a terrible ending but I just kinda moved on with my life after watching it.[/QUOTE]
Blade Runner's ending sucked, then the directors cut and final cut were released.
the internet has just gotten over me3's ending, now if this sucks people are going to rant and rave for another month
regardless if it's warrented or not, i'm just sick of hearing about it

No way dude.
ME2 was my favorite one. That was good writing. The suicide mission was the most intense emotional thing in a game I have ever experienced.
I don't think Bioware should have done this.
Whether or not the ending was good/bad, it is what it is.
[QUOTE=Chocolate.;36451827]I don't think Bioware should have done this.

Yeah they should have just left everyone with a tragically bad ending, I mean it's not like people paid money expecting the game to tie everything together and explain a ton of shit or anything.
I don't think there's any point in fixing things, the damage has already been done.

Well, even if this doesn't succeed in the way many of us hope it does, the fact that Bioware and EA are willing to take the hit on something like this (financially and otherwise) is indicative of something good. Remember, they've been working on this DLC for the past 2 1/2 - 3 months, creating 1.9gb worth of content in an attempt to help bring their fans back and show that they still give a damn. And they're doing this without any financial compensation from us. Say what you want about Bioware and EA, but this is a generous gesture.
Yeah, the damage has been done, and Bioware will likely not fully recover from it for quite some time, if ever. Despite all that, I'm willing to give this one a shot. If it succeeds, great. If not, I'll simply move on to a different developer.

The fact of the matter is this shouldn't even need to be done in the first place.

I hope this doesn't turn out bad. A LITTLE excited for this.

95% of the game is superb, it's just the final 15 minutes that goes down in flames.

Yeah, but you know what, if we lived in such a perfect world as that then Dragon Age 2 wouldn't have been as mediocre as it was. Developers (sadly) make mistakes even when the correct route appears so obvious.
[QUOTE=Errorproxy;36451717]No way dude.

ME2 lost a lot of the atmosphere that ME1 had. The feeling of being on the Citadel, that eerie, creepy feeling you get as you wandered around Peak 15, the awe and wonder that you felt as you stared across a barren planet and into the sky watching the system's star's corona erupt and move about... ME2 lost a lot of that somehow (although it definitely, definitely did have its moments, don't get me wrong).
Sure, unexplored worlds in ME1 were pretty empty and bland for the most part, but they were amazing eye candy, and they really did give you a sense that the galaxy was fucking huge. Removing unexplored planets entirely was a HUGE mistake.
I felt something amazing when the Normandy first saw and docked with the Citadel. Then after going to the wards everything started feeling...smaller and crowded and not this large luxurious architecture I was hoping for.
[QUOTE=Kabstrac;36452307]tbh I felt the Citadel was devoid of any real content. I don't really miss ME1 Citadel[/QUOTE]
I loved walking around it though. Kinda felt like a microcosm of the galaxy all in one relatively small place.

I went back and killed Ashley for ME3
I'm not even going to boot up my copy for this. I'll just YouTube it. Personally I'm not pissed at the ending. I'm pissed at the entire Trilogy. Every choice we ever made was changed and made for us. Which is bullshit. It's a huge cop out. And now they're trying to save their fanbase by releasing this piece of shit "extended ending" to try and explain what happens at the end better. I don't care about the end. That's an easy fix. It's the entire fucking plot hole riddled story that bugs me. ME1 was amazing. ME2 was great. ME3 took both those games and shat all over them both.
Thanks Bioware, you ruined a great Trilogy. Way to go.

AND WHO THE FUCK IS JAMES VEGA!?
Seriously, who the fuck is he and why am I supposed to give a shit about him?
Just like any Trilogy you need a Beginning Middle and End. Beginning introduces Characters, and welcomes you to the world and plot. Second one gets things going and things start to pick up. The third is where it hits it's climax and shit goes nuts. So when they added James in the third game I thought to myself "What's the point of this guy? I have no attachment to him what so ever. I don't hate him, I don't like him, and I surely don't give a shit if he died. What's the point?".
Vega is basically a human Garrus
I never liked Mass Effect, but I still tried watching a video on why the ending was bad.
To me it sounds like it was bad on a continuity level but not so much on a mechanical level, so basically just fanboy rage.
Maybe it's deserved, maybe it's not. I cannot judge as I never played the games, but I hope it makes those who did feel a little better about it.
Personally I just couldn't accept the new ending though, knowing what the original ending was like. I couldn't move on knowing their original intention was to ruin the series.
Also, do you have to pay for this?
guy's how about someone who get it first start a stream.
Facepunch ME3 stream event!
They might end up doing a Mass Effect MMORPG. nooooes.
