You're absolutely right. I realised that when I uploaded it and was too lazy to change then.XD
So don't tell anyone, it'll be our secret! hush...

I don't approve of them either.
I approve of this pic though...very much!

And I approve of everything you just said.
Isn't life wonderful ? Full of people that approve each-other.

I was most displeased with the recent press-release from BioWare / EA.
As Wrex himself once said: "Don't piss in my ear and tell me it's rainin'!"

I understand your feeling. I find a bit far fetched from EA to play the card of artistic integrity. Especially when they invented Day 1 DLC.
And omfg, that quote is just perfect.XD

"Artistic Integrity" - I swear this is their version of "moves in mysterious ways". You cant lie and then claim "integrity" and, while the ending cinematics are spectacular and well rendered (credit where it is due), swapping a few colours here and there is not very "artistic".
Are you part of the Retake Mass Effect group?

I am. I've signed my share of petitions to ask the free endings DLC.
"Hold the line" and everything ^^

They "listened" and are giving us the "Extended Cut" DLC. So they are gonna stick with the endings and just make them longer...like that's gonna help!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It feels like that, doesn't it ? No matter how hard I try, I can't imagine how expending the endings could somehow make them better.
I was a little upset with some of the letters I read from bioware that insinuated that we were worked up against the endings because we didn't understand them properly. If that was even remotely true expending them would make it all better, but I don't believe it is, so it won't fix anything.
I hope I'm wrong. But I doubt it.

Fantastic job on this - makes me want to play ME3 again. Oh wait...the ending!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
I'm in the same boat. I had a new Shep all planned and ready to go and now...I just don't have the heart to do it, even though all three games (on the whole) are epic.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah i'd say many would say the same. A damn shame too as you said, the three games are by and large incredible. Such a pity that the last 10 minutes of ME3 is all people remember right now - the games deserve better I think.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Thank you so much !
And... Iknowright?!
I wanted to play the whole trilogy again to make the "perfect game", but now I whenever I think of it, I just feel sad.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it really puts a dampener on the series doesn't it? Bioware created this incredible universe and characters, only to pretty much torpedo it right at the very end with that nonsensical ending. Very odd way to conclude the trilogy - and it's really come back to bite Bioware. Hopefully the rework to the ending they're doing will undo some of the damage.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Let's hope for the best, indeed !
I absolutely adore the franchise, and pretty much all the Bioware games ever created, and my love for this studio is not going to go away just because of a slip up like that. ( Or I would have survived Dragon Age II ! XD)As far as I'm concerned, all would be forgiven if the rectification DLC was to be given away freely but somehow... I doubt that's gonna happen.^^'
As silly as it sounds, I'm actually genuinely exited about what's going to change ! It's definitely mixed with a bit of apprehension, but excitement is here nonetheless ! \o/
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would say the same. I've loved pretty much all of Biowares game's, faults and all. (DA2 aside - I actually hated that one!) Every studio makes mistakes now and then, but all anyone can do is hope that lessons are learnt from those mistakes and not repeated. It doesn't really benefit anyone to drag Bioware over the coals because of the ending. Yes it was a very poor ending and yes people have every right to voice their displeasure - I sure have! Peoples opinions are well known by now though, so now we as fans need to give Bioware the chance to put it right.
The thing is with the ending, is that it's so negative that the rest of ME3 is almost a sidenote now, and that's a terrible shame because so much of the game is brilliant. It's great to play, it's funny at times, the character integration is great. And yes, I doubt that any DLC will be given away for free - this is EA after all.
I look at it this way about the impending changes to the ending. Surely whatever Bioware do, they can't make the ending worse than it already is!! (actually, forget that - tempting fate!)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I agree with very single word you wrote.
I would be maybe a bit more severe on ME3 for there are some plot/gameplay choices that I wasn't so happy with.
And yeah, let's not tempt fate here. Though I doubt they can do worse. *finger-crossed*

Indeed. Although there are a few points to ME3 that are dissapointing, the same is true of any game no matter how great. I've gamed for many years now and played so many amazing games - but none of them have been without flaws. ME3 was for the most part, everything I hoped it would be and was a brilliant gaming experience - and at worst it was no way close to being another DA2. I always look at games like ME3 and think back to what I played when I was a kid (mario brothers on the NES or old Amiga titles for example) - it puts things in perspective for me about how far games have come and just how much gamers now take for granted.
Bioware really have done some great things over the years and I as a fan of their games (DA2 aside of course) fully intend to give them a chance with what they do in reguards to fleshing out and explaining the endings better. With any luck, they'll do the game justice. It would be hard to do worse that's for sure!!

Funny that you made a comparison of ME3 and DA2. Before the game was out, I was really scared that ME3 ended up to be another DA2, and I was happily surprised. I never truly disliked any Bioware games at the very exception of DA2 and NWN2. I suppose they could have been considered as passable games if the games that came before were not so amazing. A portion of my imaginary -and art of course- has been greatly influenced by their creative team, and I don't regret it for a second.
Long live Bioware.\o/
It's really nice to exchange with people liking the same games you do. It's been a long time, and I frankly forgot what it was like.
I'm genuinely smiling.

Although I am always amazed to see how far and how quickly video games have have developed,
(The oldest video game I remember playing must have been the very first version of Pirates by Sid Meier's on my old Atari... which is quite a gap compared to ME3 !) I still can be prompt to some disappointment towards recurrent ...what I would call "abuses" in the video game industry ; such as : The need of an internet connection for a single-player game. Meaning someday, the game developing company will decide that it's not worthwhile to keep the servers up, and you won't be able to play your game any more... Maybe I'm stuck in the old ways, but I actually like the idea of having bought a game forever...
A ridiculously short game that you pay ...let's see generic price would be 45 euros? Some of the games I bought would have cost me less if I had finished them in a network game room.
The need to sign in on a social network in order to play a game is one of the things that irritates me the most.
I deeply care about keeping what I hope to be a fair judgement on video games, and the hardest thing for me is not being able to know how EA and Bioware are working together.
Since I have an emotional bound to Bioware I want to believe that what I don't like in game is because of Electronics Art. Which is quite unfair. And also so very wrong. I hope Bioware is still quite free of doing its own choices, and I shouldn't be so quick to misjudge. But at the same time, EA has such a bad reputation... that I do not quite know what to think !

Yes it's far from the same thing as with DA2. DA2 to me had no positives. It looked bad, the story was a mess, the characters were unlikable, stylistically it was just simplistic and almost childish. The exploding body parts and so on - I just hated that game so much. It didn't feel to me anything like a Bioware title. I usually think internet anger is over the top, but on that occassion I did agree with alot of what was said. NWN2 I can understand that game not being to everyone's tastes - the same with Jade Empire. Those two games really split opinion. But I agree, I think people are hard on Bioware especially because so many of their games have been so good over the years. Even all the talk of ME3 right now, people obviously care or they wouldn't be discussing things like they are. Artistically, you only have to look on Deviant to see how much their games influence people in their art choices and styles.
It is nice to discuss games with people who have similar tastes

I agree entirely. I think age and hindsight are great things to have, especially these days in the age of the net where people can say what they want without the risk of consequence. But at the same time, people can call out what they see as 'abuses' on the consumers and that's a good thing. Alot that happens in gaming now makes me shake my head, such as the issue with Capcom locking on disc content so they can charge you for it later (street fighter x tekken) - that to me is the line crossed. The only way to fight that though is to not but the product, nothing else will do the job.
And the issue of servers being closed down that you mentioned is already a problem, EA especially are bad for this. If you pay for a game, you shouldn't be locked out of it two years later because the company begind it closes down the servers.
As sad as it is with Bioware, they are an EA company now. I hate knowing that being a long term fan of their games, but it sadly is the case. Is their bad rep justified? In some respects, definately. DLC practices, PC gamers have a bad deal from them, closing down studios. It all looks pretty ugly.
I don't buy alot of the internet theories, but I also don't believe Bioware has free reign to make the games as it truly wants anymore. As much as I love the three ME games, I look at ME1 and then look at how different ME3 is compared to it. It's sad to see when looked at in those terms. ME1 has alot of scope and atmosphere, it hinted at a huge universe to explore. The other two games feel very narrow in scope by comparison.

I liked my ending, probably because my Shepherd lived, lol.

Struggling for air under a pile of stranded space-station rubble while being badly injured isn't exactly my idea of being alive but... I'm glad you found the ending satisfying nonetheless !<3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The clip definitely wasnt long enough for anyone to see any struggling, lmfao. It was a breath of air the showed Shep was alive which should be good for any fan. I also recall Shep being ON the debris, not under it. Shep was ressurected before and hit by a reaper beam and survived... so really the ending is only bad if the player wants it to be. imo it leaves room for expansion in dlc which has already been rumored since EA insists on their fans being satisfied. In any case these developers have NEVER been good with their endings so Im not sure why so many are complaining. There WILL be another ME, just not with Shepherd.

I'm not happy with the ending because we do not see the repercussion of our actions on the universe. What's the point of curing the genophage if we do not see what impact it has on the krogan ? On the galaxy ? Or the return of the quarians on their homeworld ? Or how the Rachni we saved may return ?
It's the whole point of having 3 games of hard choices.
I don't say this is why all the fans are complaining but I'm sure to speak for at least of lot of us.
If you played others Bioware games before, like DAO, you saw the incredible different endings the writers were able to create, and how well it has been welcome by the fan community. Knowing that, I really can't understand how not to be pissed.
If you haven't played any other bioware games, then see it as a lack of closure. Imagine the 3 Lord of the rings movie without the last 20 minutes of the last one. No image of the Shire at peace, or sensation of life going on whatsoever.
I don't mind Shepard dying, but I'd like to see the impact of the choice he/she made.
All we can imagine is that all the armada we managed to bring on earth to fight the reapers is slowly going to starve to death since they can't go back home through the relays.
I could go on for ages, but if you really want to know, I'm sure you can find rants elsewhere.
We are more than 40 000 to believe the end wasn't as grand as it could/should have been. :3

Oh good god I'm skimming that, no need to make this bigger than it is. Again, it's not the last ME so you DO get to see your repercussions, just not with Shepherd. & again, EA games have NEVER had good endings so I find it funny everyone is so devastated, lol. I've never played any of their other games and I know they have shitty endings just by looking around.

I understand better now.XD
Please understand, It's not about being an EA game. It's about being a BIOWARE game.
If you haven't played Dragon Age Origins, or Kotor or Never winter Nights, it is quite understandable you don't see why most of people are fanrageing.
I recommend all those games, they are highly entertaining !
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I did mean Bioware, I had fallen asleep. But yes, my friend told me Kotor was HORRIBLE and the ending sucked, and I did play both Dragon Ages despite me hating them, so. I'm not completely blind here. But ME has always had not-so-great and rather vague endings.

We obliviously don't have the same tastes in video games.
So I'm not surprised we look for different experiences while playing them.

We don't have the same tastes because I disliked one of their games? Lmfao! I played through all the Mass Effect's twice, I am in love with that series, it's clear you are since you're one of the fan-ragers, so I'd beg to differ but, whatever.

& there it is, you turned it into something bigger. I never called you an idiot, but if you want to start acting like a whiny 5-year old I definitely won't bother. Have a nice miserable life since your game didn't end the way you wanted it to, LOL.
