Discussion for Mass Effect 3 ending here.

Am I the only one who thought it sucked?!?
i decided not to finish the game after hearing how bad the ending was
Hey guys, who's your favorite Mass Effect 3 exclusive character?

Mine is Eve, probably one of the best characters of the whole series. I love Wrex and Grunt but Eve takes it for me as the best Krogan in the series. She has a freaking awesome theme song too. My favorite Eve moment: www.youtube.com/...

I think she's great as well, you have to think that without her the Krogans wouldn't have any sensible guidance. Love how she keeps Wrex in check as well.
At first I didn't like James he comes off a little to douchey but eventually he grows on you. My personal favourite is Javik, he's just filled with kick arse and just says what ever is on his mind. I played though the game again using Javik from the start in pretty much every mission just to see what extra dialog he has. My first play though I bought the DLC towards the end of the game so I missed a lot that he has to say.

I liked Eve too though Traynor was pretty insightful as well. It was so neat to hear some random NPCs talking to one another though and just getting to know each other, especially in the refugee area on the Citadel. Felt a bit bad for that girl who was waiting for her parents.

James was ehhh... It could have to do with the voice acting from FPJ. Just, eh... He was trying to mix the whole Spanish/English thing but I just wasn't feeling it.

But anyways, as far as the endings go, I actually really liked how it all ended and all these speculations everyone made with the whole Indoctrination process. It's neat that fans can look so much into things and just create massive things out of so little.

Either way, I do kinda hate the fact that BioWare is going back to "fix" the ending, though they did say they're just adding things on to make it more clear to fans what's the ending really all about.

Might do another play through just for other achievements, but <3 the story.
Just finished another playthough tonight and chose synthesis this time...yep the green ending :P

One thing I didn't notice the last time I finished the game when talking to the catalyst child when he speaks it sounds like there's another voice overlying his. Like someone older or "mechanical", I only noticed it this time because I was wearing headphones instead of using my speakers like I did the last 2 times I finished it. It could be an echo but the second voice seemed in sync with the kids voice.
Guyver, your signature line makes my head hurt every time I read it.

It's best not to try and make sense of it :P Some have tried to translate it but they have all suffered brain hemorrhages as a result :P

The voice of the child is actually that of the Male and Female versions of Shepard combined in one. Left is FemShep, Right is MaleShep if I'm not mistaken. I remember reading it somewhere.

I liked how when doing this, a whole new voice came through which is pretty damn awesome!
So yeah, spoilers for the extended cut control ending, but I lol'd.

^lol that classic. So I'm assuming we get more insight into the Reapers with this extended cut then.
just played through destroy ending, watched the rest on youtube... funnily enough theres a hidden ending if u shoot or verbally refuse the starchild lol it was pretty funny.

i liked it cause it goes more in depth with the synthesis/control endings, and also u get a final moment with ur romance if they are in ur squad while running towards the beam at the end.

im pretty satisfied with it... i was hoping for more, like actually seeing ur war assets in action, but whatever.

Did you play from the Illusive Mans base or did you start further back?

Just wondering if it's just added ending sequence or have they added more from the start of the game.
**** Bioware.

Sounds like the top voted comment on any of their videos on Youtube that something to do with Mass Effect 3.
Kero it's more like **** EA man, Bioware are EA little bitches now...

EDIT: Just played through the ending again and this time I had a FOURTH choice. Not sure if that was there before and I missed it, but leads to a completely different ending for my Shep...
Well, the endings are much better now.
Give an explanation about what happened afterwards at the very least.

yes i started from before the illusive mans base... there are no new scenes until the run to the beam, but u need to start from cronos station for the endings to take effect for some reason... i think it has to do with war assets counting from when u leave for the cerberus base :(

but i liked the added scenes... clears a lot more things up
I think they were done well for what we knew we were getting. No new ending to the trilogy (even though we did get a new option prompting a fourth one, which actually wasn't too bad), a slideshow isn't much, but it did give us a little bit of closure on all the team members like everyone asked.

And the added scenes fill in the gaps between the plotholes well, even though it's pretty funny your crew turned out to land on a remote planet only to just take off 5 minutes later.

It's alot more than what I was expecting to get out of it to be honest, they also give you a slightly longer scene to spend with your love interest right before the charge.
Agreed. In the end I'm satisfied, I got my answers (and a last moment with Ashley). Also if Shepard lives, your romance not putting up the plaque showing they think ur alive was a nice touch.

The only thing they left out which I was looking forward to the most was seeing ur war assets in action, but not a deal breaker. Happy with it
oh god the voice over on the control ending

robo-edi = still ****ing creepy

She was the V/O on the synergy sending... [Shifty]
One more quick question before I put other things aside and get cracking with the new content is does it make any difference if your galactic readiness is low? I had mine at a 100 percent a while ago but haven't touched the game for months now so it's back down to 50 percent. I have however collected pretty much all the assets you can get through the game.
the new minimum EMS for the 'best' ending is 3100... so u dont need to play multiplayer at all. if ur GR is at 50%, and u have 7200 total military strength, and ur EMS is 3100, u can get the best ending

Sweet! Thanks for that.
