It's the last game in the trilogy and they pretty much ended it on another cliffhanger. I don't have any desire to replay the game unfortunately so time to move on to something else.

Have you seen the massive shitstorm that's erupted because of the (horrible) ending?

Trying that 'artistic' argument on this game ain't working at the bioware forums� There are a lot of these �videos but here is one view on wtf was going on for the entire series

Arthur Conan Doyle brought Moriarty back from the dead due to the public outcry. Next generation of consoles I bet we have to pay $5 to watch the 'extended' ending of games. Regular ending is free, good ending will be sold as DLC.

Stand by your work. You really, really need to have played it to understand the outcry here. It ended up making most of the playerbase feel like a bait and switch had occurred.

I couldn't judge though until I saw the ending myself. There was absolutely no closure with any of the squad members and people like Traynor disappeared completely. It also took me a while to remember that I didn't even run in to Kelly even though she survived ME2. Where the hell was she?

I choose the good/moral route in these sorts of games because I always feel terrible being an asshole. The problem is while I enjoyed the ME universe I wasn't emotionally invested like I was with Dragon Age. I've beaten both DAO and DA2 a dozen times or so and I can't stomach replaying ME another playthrough. DA2 won't receive any more patches or DLC according to BioWare so I got DA3 to look forward to from them.

It's 3 weeks old not gonna worry about spoilers but it just added more confusion since the Red option meant HE/SHE also would die. But........didn't Oh that Samanta looks and sounds exactly like the girl that's on Alcatraz right now and she was on ER it's last few seasons But Traynor was on the ship at the end on my Femshep play with Javik So Ash and Liara and Tali etc .......no fucking idea

You have to go talk to her before Tuchanka.

Figured it was probably a cliff hanger, but if not, it still was a fine ending IMO. Reaper cycle is broken, we know that at least some civilization lives on. I didn't need an epilogue on everyone but I understand why some would. The ME series really focused on relationships and so having the series end with no closure on any of those relationships pissed people off. I noticed a slight shift in relationship building to universe building and seeing a bigger scope and long term view in ME3. This is a cycle that's been going on for milllions of years every 50,000 years. It's finally been stopped though at great expense, but that is still an actual happy ending no? I also have a hunch that Bioware is up to something with all of this, but only time will tell.

You have to go talk to her before Tuchanka. Be sure to tell Kelly to change her identity and talk to her again later in the game the cliff hanger was what they said we were NOT getting. I can't find some of his quotes from prelaunch but they didn't sound anything like what the last 10 to 15 minutes gave players.

They are so much better now and the texture pop on xbox was SO bad on ME1 Kelly was in the same area i think where you see Conrad verner and since i didn't save help that girl in ME1 (on that import at least) Conrad dies in my game, lol But he died a hero saving Shep!

Engineers <3 I'm playing ME1 again too (doing a straight perfect 3 game playthrough as an Infiltrator aka the best class overall in the series gameplay wise) and I think the biggest wtf for me was only having 1 power hotkey'd alol. Took a WHILE to get use to that.
