Whats the big deal?!  :dunno It cant be worse then Halo 2 or Halo 3...

The entire trilogy is about making choices and seeing/living with the consequences of those choices.  Throughout Mass Effect 3 you feel like the story is unique to you depending on what choices you made in the first two games...up until the very end where regardless of what you've done in all three games, you get essentially the same generic ending.  The ending of the second game did a great job of making you feel like your choices had a significant impact on how it ended, which makes the ending of ME3 even more disappointing.

I didn't hate the ending like a lot of people did, I was just disappointed in it.

Now there's a conspiracy theory going around that Bioware (at the insistence of EA) made an intentionally bad ending in order to sell DLC of a new and improved ending, which I'm certain will be coming in the next couple of months.

Oh man, thats brutal. What a bunch of ---uvulas---. Got freaking shanghai'ed man, what a bummer. I would be really frustrated too if I put all that time and money into a game, and had the illusion I was going to get a rad ending, then bam, got the same ending as the retard down the street that didnt do anything or put any thought into it. I dont know whats worse, being disappointed, or hating it lol.

Man I believe that, take a page out of Capcoms play book.  ::) There is no integrity anywhere now a days. They knew it was going to be a huge seller, but NOOooOOoOO they had to try and make MORE money... Ugh.

There is nothing I could give a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- about less than video game stories. I get my stories from Manga, Anime, Books and Movies. I subscribe to this guys channel and thought his videos were pretty funny on Mass Effect 3.

From the inner workings that I read the idea surfaced at EA when the script for ME3 was leaked.  At that point they decided to give a lackluster ending/screw with fans so they could release a big/monster/better ending.  The main man Project manager Casey Hudson said several times "He wanted people to talk about the ending for years to come" so releasing it in this fashion is a super way for people to talk about it long term.  It does however raise a dangerous precedent as to how publishers release games now.  "no need to worry about the ending, we'll just DLC it later"

I did however hear that the DLC will be free.  It also does make a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- load of sense, just on how the game behaves on 2 of the three endings.  INDOCTRINATION!!
