Mass Effect 3

[Porn Shop Clerk]

more like you throw a tantrum anytime anyone disagrees with you about anything. you have the emotional state of a 15 year old. if it were no big deal you'd act like the adults around here and ignore my opinion

its just the emotional little brats like you that bite when i point out how shitty your almighty gods are

and the fact that i'm right is the sugar on your hissy fits

You don't actually disagree with me as you've never played any of the games in question. You just see that someone likes something you don't, so you flood the thread with whining about it. This isn't the first time, mods have had to shut down and restart threads when you've done the same thing before. That kind of flies in the face of your claim that this is about me when you've done the same routine over the past multiple years any time anyone has enjoyed something that you weren't told you could enjoy by 4chan or whatever other tired meme haven you get your opinions from.

Enjoy your My Little Pony (until that meme dies) and I'll enjoy my Mass Effect.

Haha this thread is some comedy.

Enjoy your My Little Pony (until that meme dies) and I'll enjoy simulating intimate relationships on video games because I have no hope of ever forming one otherwise.

true

You should be able to do better than that

sorry i don't have a marketing budget

even though the ending wasn't to my liking I didn't see it as horribly bad, IMO the greater aspect of the game as a whole was just amazing definitely in my Top 5 games of all time now

if you combined all 3 games into one, then you'd have a solid game that's worth investing in. as it stands you guys paid 180$ for one game.

with a shitty fuging ending

i got mass effect 2 for $5 and never bought the first one. So technically i paid $65. but with amazon $10 credit so i guess $55. So worth it. ;D

I think a lot of people (myself included) jumped on the 'the ending sucks' bandwagon before they ever actually played it. Once I beat the game myself, I didn't mind it at all. I think people just wanted an ideal "Everything is great, you saved the day, married your sweetheart, and are now Space King" ending, and were gutted when they didn't get it.

If you read about the theory that during the entire final mission, Shepard was actually indoctrinated, then it's actually an incredible ending.

I've read up on that theory and I don't think it's the case for one of a few reasons, one of them being that indoctrination is a slow process unless you are a machine like the geth and there are also a few warning signs that go with it too, I think TIM was indoctrinated but Shepard not so much.

now with that being said if it is that shepherd is indoctrinated at the end of the game 1, the ending goes to holy fuging bat poo batman awesome, and 2 I hate it all at the same time.

i'm personally fine with a ending that Shepard does not survive as long as he saves the rest of the galaxy while doing it, but one thing that I did not like about the game is the total lack of choice that you had over how the story ended, which is something that has been a staple in all the mass effect games have been all about the choices you make, Like in ME1, you saving the council and also deciding who the new councilor for earth would be, in mass effect 2 the choices were too many to count almost, but in the 3rd you basically had one choice or out come to the game and if you did not like it tough luck

The ending was terrible to me because it was a total break from what the series really had represented in the past... from plot holes to shoddy/reused art to lack of choice... While I did find it annoying there was no real "Happy ending," that alone was not my issue with it. It was a combination of factors.

at one point the developers said about the ME3 ending that you wouldn't feel like you were choosing between options 1, 2, or 3, because the ending was a culmination of playing through all the games. that just wasn't true.

As to the indoctrination, that is damage control I think... or a cheap ploy to sell more DLC afterwards.

I personally have been avoiding any website or anything to do with mass effect 3 till I ha the chance to buy the game and play it myself, I only found out that there was a co-op mode when my brother mentioned it to me 2 weeks before the game came out.

I felt the game was perfect every step along the way till it got to the point where you actually got back to the citadel at that point it was just ok at best, and yes there were a lot of plot holes like what have been explained in the indoctrination theories which in some ways honestly does make some sense but it also doesn't in others.

btw the one thing I still can't figure out is how do the mass relays blow up without whipping out half the galaxy??
