Fuck randomness so hard. Oh and Eviscrator level 4. Gay ass shotguns. Yeah I don't have black widow, but I have a load of upgraded shotguns which I don't use. I'm also currently all out of medigel. :D | ||

Seems to be a few inconsistencies with that final group dieing. Some people have reported that they show up outside of the Normandy post-relay-event, even though you took them with you for the final fight. Everything I've read from the fans always seems to say that the final reaper was Harbinger. | ||

Still leaves some things up in the air like how Ashley always seems to die then reappear on the ship, but wtv. | ||

You can still biotic explode on non-armoured units with lift+reave, but armoured units give you trouble unless you babysit your nades. On gold they replenish 1-by-1 in crates and you have to make sure you hit with them. Also skilling nades takes away from life, much like asari's skill choices. He's certainly usable on gold, but you need a decent team and more attention. You can't hide in a corner and biotic explosion everything that comes into view. Reave spam rips apart armor incredibly fast. | ||

They say during the battle that Harbinger and several "Sovereign Class" reapers are coming to stop you. It is indeed Harbinger. Also I had Ashley (love interest) and EDI with me on the final battle, and both of them walked out during the ending, so I dunno what the hell is up with that. | ||

Also I think its ok only to get a partial extraction for that pack right? One guy died on us being a bit too excited on wave 11 but the rest made it, I think I read that that is ok, and even he will get one. On that note, the million brute kills, do they count brutes from all difficulties? Because if they do I might go farm bronze reapers a little bit, just to help out as well as level some of my crappier characters.. | ||

Drell adept is as crazy as asari adept with some finesse, but needs a weapon that can reliably take down shields. While Reave spam does work on shields, it's highly inefficient, which is why I carry a Locust at all times. | ||

Here you can find information or watch all possible endings, needless to say, it contains spoilers. From what I could gather, it's basically impossible to get the best ending with single player alone, despite what BioWare claims, which kinda sucks, multiplayer shouldn't affect singleplayer. http://www.ign.com/wikis/mass-effect-3/Endings + Show Spoiler + They do show up afterwards in some endings, basically everyone dies in others or something in between. I also felt the harbringer should play a bigger part in this game, he doesn't fell diferent from any other Reaper. It felt you had much more direct interaction with Reapers in ME and ME2, with Sovereign and Harbringer, than you got in ME3, which is weird, considering it's the big Reaper invasion and all. I personally didn't mind the ending THAT much, not as much as some people seem to, but I felt the final parts of gameplay leading to it really anti-climatic. + Show Spoiler + You fight waves and waves of enemy, then comes the time of the final big baddass boss battle every game should end with, and then everyone dies. But you don't actually die, yet you still get so fucked up you know there won't actually be any more gameplay. I didn't really like the final boss in ME2, but at least that felt like an ending, in this one I just felt like they cut the game near the end and gave me an storyline ending. Games like this should have final bosses, just a tough wave of regular enemies didn't cut it for me. | ||

Overall I actually liked the ending I got which was controlling the reapers. I wish I would have had more renegade points for the little convo at the end with The Illusive Man. Up to that point my half renegade half paragon Shepard could do all the convo options until the VERY last choice... where I wasn't charming/forceful enough.  Also just read about how you can only increase readiness rating by playing Multiplayer... and I gotta say that is a very very very dirty and dumb move. I didn't want to play Multiplayer to decrease my chances of getting spoiled... also I just didn't want to play some shitty multiplayer. | ||

And i've been though that file quite a bit. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/N1YmL.jpg) who enjoys my casual appearance, too casual? | ||

Bioware just said *FKK ALL* and just plain doesn't give a crap what happens in the ending. It is never explained what happens to anyone in your crew. They just gave up and gave some random context and no final ending. | ||

This can either stand as a testament to the writing of Mass Effect itself or a tribute to how shitty other video games are at telling a story in general. Either way, ending and all, ME is a refreshing taste since Silent Hill 2. | ||

I got the "best ending" with effective 4900ish military strength. Did play some multiplayer to up my readiness a little but don't think I'l be playing that anymore, got boring pretty fast. One thing that bothered me a little was + Show Spoiler + Tali climbing out from Normandy after the crash even though I had her at my last mission. | ||

While its expected for the writers to lose track of minor plotholes, that is simply not one of them. The person that walks out at the very very end is always the romance option if I am not mistaken. And most people bring there romance option with them to the final battle. Joker/Normandy was supposed to be involved in the final battle anyway, not fucking around in some random ass relay. Thus I maintain that none of that ending is grounded or canon. In fact it is so far off the track that there is no way the writers thought it made sense, i give them more credit than that since they did write the rest of the series afterall. However the "N7 breathing" at the end of the destroy path, that small 5 second segment makes more sense than the rest of the entire 2 minute ending. | ||
