Trust me, you are far, far from the only one massively unhappy with the available endings. The disappointment is so widespread that prominent gaming sites are picking up and reporting on it

Hopefully this is a kick in the quad for Bioware and gets them to fix it like that horrid novel..

I'd still give the game a 10/10 overall, the ending isn't going to spoil the other 99% I love and will continue to play through. However I'm in agreement. I liked the ending choices, but the way they were implemented felt...bad. I wanted a longer cutscene that revealed more. I wanted an epic speech from Hacket, what happened to your squad, what will the galaxy be like now, ect... If they had just made that last cutscene about double or triple the time length for closure it would have been alright for myself. Can't speak for the other gamers.

Just like with some movies. Its all good until the end credits and you're all "THATS IT?!"

I also understand that point as well. It might of been better if they had taken a bit of time to explain things before cutting out so rather short.

Yeah, I kinda felt like they got really lazy near the end. I've read Fanfictions with MUCH more satisfying conclusions then this. While I can live with the idea that Shepard sacrificed him/herself, the idea of destroying the mass relays and most of the tech was kinda stupid. It pretty much kills the Mass Effect universe, setting everyone back hundreds, maybe even thousands of years back because of it. It pretty much makes all of your previous choices meaningless.

I would have preferred that not happen. In all honesty I would have preferred to find out what a Turian/Human baby looked like. Hope they actually do come out with DLC that fixes the endings. I'm sure if enough people demand it they'd have too.

You know what I will agree whole heartedly, that the endings could of been so much more then what they where, and yes I was a bit disappointed by em myself. BUT it's not gonna ruin the fun I've had with the other two games or the fun I had well playing ME3 or the MP in it. Just wish they didn't just leave it so cut and dry and so fucking vague as hell to. But in the end the only real complaint I'd have was the endings, besides that the game had me hooked and was a emotional roller coaster Xp.

So true.. I just went over this ALLL night yesterday with  kraminian91 about that shit I joined facebook page and posted on forums about changing it. I refuse to lie down and take it ><' The game was near perfect until that point the last 15 minutes or so... I had a long post about the inconsitency's in the final moments like how Your love interest steps out of Normandy? he was in my squad fightin final reaper... how did he get in space on normandy? with no emotion at all at what happened. ><'

While I don't disagree with the other points, I think it's pretty feasible to assume your party members survive Harbinger, then retreat with the remnants of Hammer. Hard to say EXACTLY with how vague everything was, but I just assumed during that time they were able to catch a shuttle back to the Normandy before Joker went FTL speed.

Yus but its very unlikely Garrus would abandon shepard or her body... Not after building up that relationship for so long and the speech they gave one another before final fight. Promising to never be apart etc. I cant see any feasible inclination that would suggest he in any way would abandon her. Hell just look at what happened in ME2 his squad when he was on OMega? the lengths he went to protect them ultimiately having to track down Sidonis just to merit out his own justice he doesnt just sit on sidelines and run away or lie down and take it.

even more so if we ended up lifebonded with liara...she came and got our body once...

and my ex-lover promised we'd have drinks on a beach together in retirement! *grumblegrumblegrumble*

AGREED. Game was intense, felt like a real war, hard decisions....And then the end was like. What the fuck.

for real man.... exactly how I felt and explained to my friends. Many times I felt like wow... I cant make that call... it felt like real gritty war like it should.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b33tJx8iy0A Best summary imo of what I feel about ending... xD enjoy if you haven't seen yet.

Rage... Rage everywhere <,<

I refused to finish it, I saved it some time after I landed on earth and decided they all had some kind of happy ending. Bioware's ending is just a critical mission failer

this sums up my upsetness with the ending (i finished it 2 days ago, unlocked the"better"? option and am still upset): http://youtu.be/_qYm738hq1o

I.. understand why they made the ending like that... It may seem like more realistic to some people
but I definitely didn't fuckin' like it. Specially not after all the baby talk with Garrus. That just made my heart
melt. ;-; I sobbed so hard when I found out the three options available in the end, didn't help that I
was still upset about Anderson but still. The ending blowed. I felt so fuckin bad for leaving Garrus behind. ;-;

Not to mention him and the Normandy crash on some garden planet. Why were they leaving earth? Garrus would most likely starve and he would not just abandon shep like that.
The mass relays being destroyed was also stupid and pointless as just reuniting all the aliens are now stranded. Like.. wtf?!

Ughh I knowwww. Not only did his mate/love of his life just die but now he is stuck on
some random ass jungle planet they shouldn't even have been near with most likely
no dextro based food added. Depression and starvation is definitely what you want to
see your LI face.*sarcastic thumbs up*Ugh!

I kinda liked the endings. I thought it was pretty ballsy to maker the end so...final.
most games are left on a clifhanger so they can make sequels for easy cash but with how the endings are at the momnet that will never happen and I'm glad.
mass effect was born in this console generation and it died at the end of the console generation.
it allows bioware to do something new with the next gen without being tied down to the brand and draging it though the dirt.

Just cuz we didnt save the world and get the girl it dosnt mean the ending is bad, by the very meaning of the word endings are surpossed to be final and with the mass relays gone sending all races back thousands of years technology wise and the normandy stuck on a random planet...Its pretty final.

would I like to see my Shep live and still have the mass realys so life returning back to normal all "happy ever after" style but I've been playing mass effect for the last 5 years and I've know shit was going to go down and there was no way it could be a "happy ever after", thats not the way things work.
