If you liked the ending and want to keep enjoying it, just don't ever think about it ever again. Seriously. Don't. Don't try to apply any logic or reasoning. Just go with it. Leave this thread fast.

Does anyone have a video of that? Photoshoping a picture of Poochie on it would be cool.
Just having the shitty placeholder film leave the screen in the same way as in the episode would do lots.
NOTE: THE REAPERS DIED ON THE WAY BACK TO THEIR DARK SPACE

This is exactly the sort of thing I expected. A good mix of consequences, and only if you played some super-perfect Paragon trilogy does everyone end up "happy."

Especially since it was only 6 months.
So in 6 months, Jacob leaves Shepard, escapes Cerberus finds someone else, and then decides to have a kid with her?
lol, alright
Bioware will fix the ending because we demand it.

Well I doubt he "decided" to have a kid...

When that started playing on Tuchunka I almost shit my pants.
I love how condescending he is to organics as worthless and that their future is empty, but in the end of ME3, no, no, they don't hate organics! Actually, they see themselves as the great defenders of organics who will immortalize organics by harvesting and uplifting them! Really, they're actually the good guys and love organics above synthetics!
As soon as they said it will be "clarification" instead of a change, I prepared myself for massive disappointment. It means they don't really understand the problem.

Have heard that Sovereign voice so many times and it still gives me goose bumps how he speaks makes the reapers sound like Gods and the galactic races as ants.

So many people called DA2 being bad from the start that, while disappointed, they generally werent caught off guard by it being crap.hateradio said:

That's amazing.
Reminds me of that glitch in ME2 where Miranda could be carried away by seeker swarms and appear in the next scene moments later.
Except better.

They should write it something like this.
They cull the galaxy every 50k years to find a species capable of great mutations to make it into their own. But the reason for it is to improve their coding aka something like genetic algorithms.Sadly haven't gotten genetic code yet as a topic in my CS course. So i won't try to explain or research it yet, too busy with finishing up stupid rush hour solver program.
You could work the dark matter stuff into it as well.
Organic life is a mutation a chance that happens so if a species is adaptable enough that reapers find them fit.
They will make them a reaper and hope that with their genetic code they will find a algorithm that can provide a solution for the dark energy/matter problem

Reapers should never half talked, it would be so much more effecting if they were just like Bees, doing very complex things by instinct with no consideration given to morality.

Can someone explain how exactly TIM 'notified' the Reapers about the Citadel? How did he alone manage to stay alive on the Citadel when it's pretty clear that all the 11 million people on there were killed? How did he know the way to the unexplained Crucible Control Dias?
In ME1, Sovereign tells us that the Reapers use the Citadel to arrive in the galaxy each time they decide to end a 'cycle', and he goes there, indicating that every damn Reaper out there can make his way to it if need be. If it is so important to their conquest of Earth, why didn't they bring it there at the start? Since they have so much power over the Citadel, and it's clearly extremely important to the species they're trying to conquer, why didn't they 'turn it off' as soon as they arrived?

He looked under R of the Yellow pages.
If they were going to be Lovecraftian they should have been true Lovecraftian. Non-discernable and maddeningly impossible to comprehend. Not flying squids with deep voices.

I'm gonna say from his research on sanctuary is how he contacted them.

So Hackett was debriefing me and then he randomly mentioned my mom.
I was like " wat "
and Shepard went : " oh ? "
I guess she was as surprised as me by this random mention of my mom, for the first time in 3 games

just finished the game, chose the illusive man's ending... and i thought it was excellent! a great way to end the series. how come people have been complaining
proper ending and a sacrifice to end the war? good stuff!
I enjoyed it too but be warned: most everyone here is gonna try to convince you that your opinion is wrong.
Edit: Also the thing with Tali dying yet coming back for the romance scene towards the end happened to me too. It must be a pretty common glitch then...

If you're a spacer, your mom is a captain in the Alliance Navy. You speak with her via comm during a mission in ME1 and get an email from her in ME2.
there's a plotline regarding your mom if you were a spacer in ME1 I think.
Yeah, which is why I didn't say everyone.. lol
Only happens if you're a spacer, and if you're a spacer she's in the first one as well. So...no, not random.

No one can tell anyone that they're wrong for liking the ending.
But if they say it was a good ending then we have entire spreadsheets that says that's incorrect.
and its not extraordinary of customers/viewers/readers/gamers etc not to like the handling of the final act of a story....
someone should write a wiki "the ending of mass effect" btw
The End of Evangelion
They can be considered as either a "replacement" or a more detailed, "real world" account of the final two episodes of the popular animated series Neon Genesis Evangelion, which takes place almost completely in the minds of the main characters (an "experimental approach" the Red Cross Book explains as mainly driven by time and budget restraints).
Production
The ambiguous meaning of the TV series' ending left many viewers and critics confused and unsatisfied.The final two episodes were possibly the most controversial segments of an already controversial series and were received as flawed and incomplete by many. However, Anno and assistant director Kazuya Tsurumaki defended the artistic integrity of the finale.
It has been debated whether The End of Evangelion is intended to enlarge and retell episodes 25 and 26 or to completely replace the TV ending with a different one. Some believe that The End of Evangelion is an alternate ending to the series, perhaps created to please those fans who were displeased with the TV series' ending. Tsurumaki said he felt the series was complete as it was.[

People who romanced Tali let her die on Rannoch? She should've taken your Shep with her/Game Over....lol
On another topic, I started up a quick Action mode game to see what happens with that, and I already have over 7000 assets in the war room from the get go. Carryover from my previous game? Gives a good excuse to rifle through the game (I'm just seeing what things "default" to while building towards 5000 kills).
Mix of old faces and unwelcome faces. Mordin here, but Wreav there. And without Jack those Grissom kids are a mess.
Wrong.

It was a super hard decision but given the circumstances that lead the Geth and the Quarians to this point and the fact that the Quarians were being massive dicks while all the Geth wanted was peace... I just couldn't let the Geth be destroyed. They are the superior race.

Speaking of Space Jesus, isn't Shep's death cheapened since she has already died?
No wonder he likes the Catalyst's final solutions.
