TXL

so fucking true.

it really ruined the whole series for me because mass effect was about you making the hard the choices and dealing with the consequences, everything else was pretty much generic scifi 101. that ending made the consequences never be the same

You can survive in one of the destroy endings.

I thought destroy was the renegade ending, the "evil" ending.

Kind of Ironic after saving the geth and having EDI as a crewmate that you wipe them out eventually.

Actually i saw edi leave the ship on one of my destory endings and a quote from bioware on twitter says its possible to see her live but they wont say more.

Just finished the game over the weekend.

As a player of ME1,2, & 3....all I got to say for now is; WHAT THE FUCK?!!??!?!?!!?!??!!?

What the hell were you doing when you found that?

So, has anybody heard any updates on the ending DLC? I've heard nary a peep since several months ago.

I'm not even sure I give a crap anymore. Bioware pretty much sapped my desire to want to play Mass Effect. After ToR, ME3, and DA2, I'm pretty much deadset against giving them anymore money too. ToR I wasn't really as concerned about. I really liked KotOR 1 & 2, but it didn't bother me that ToR was so bland. ME3 and DA2 really pissed me off. Both featured characters that were written into the game and then removed and sold as DLC or only included in the digital deluxe versions (ME2 did this too with Zaeed). That's another thing that has really soured me on Bioware.

Count me as another person who is more or less "done" with Mass Effect. If there is anything of any substance added I'll just watch the clips on youtube when they pop up rather than replaying the game.

My theory is that EA needed to show profits for Q1 of 2012 or they were gonna be fucked. Bioware on the other hand said that they needed to push back the release of ME3 4-6 more months to get everything with the ending sorted out. EA then told the Bioware execs that if ME3 doesn't launch Q1 they will be "fired" or whatever EA is in the position to do to hurt the execs financially. So rather than get butt fucked by EA, the execs at Bioware forced ME3 to release in Q1 when it wasn't 100% ready. That's my crazy theory. I think things like some terrible animations (Anderson's run animation and what not) and the ending which felt really rushed to me like something they had to come up with on short notice points to that. On the other hand I wouldn't be surprised if none of that was true and Bioware just completely failed.

I think the Indoctrination Theory is also ridiculous and just an attempt by some people to try and make sense out of a really shitty ending to a otherwise great series. I can only hope that EA will go bankrupt soon. They have too much bad influence in games now, those that play BF3 will notice this as EA seems to be trying there best to just make the Battlefield series into another Call of Duty with all the "pay" to be a premium player and pay for weapon shortcuts crap that's going on. EA just cares about making money and not about making good quality video games. I hope that the few gaming companies that remain separate from EA will realize that they don't need EA and they are better off staying independent.
