Mass Effect 3 - Page 136

I expected something bad from the reaction I've seen from people, but I didn't expect it to be this unsatisfying.

Seriously? Synthetics will eventually kill the organics? That's the entire point? What about EDI and Joker? What about the Quarian and Geth peace? WHAT THE FUCK?

It could have been somewhat logical if he said something like "synthetics don't need as many resources as the organics, so eventually all organic life will disappear" or something, but seriously, it's due to the rebellion?? The Geth didn't even rebel on Quarians, they were forced to defend themselves and that started the war, it was the stupidity of organics! So don't tell me there can't be peace, it's possible and it's already happened!

And what about all the choices I've made and the people I've picked up along the way? I didn't even get to bang Jack on the Normandy before the final mission. How hard could it be to call her to pay a visit to you at the Normandy? Seriously, with all the shit going on and the stress of being burdened by the prospect of saving the entire freaking galaxy, Shepherd does need a way to vent it all out, he is a HUMAN after all, not a damn Reaper, but no, all we get is a damn holocall with a promise of some banging "if" we survive. Cmon, she's your lover, you love her, she loves you, at least give a final, last reunion before the battle like the ME2 did.

The three endings are all similar. I didn't actually pick the synthesis one because I thought it would show me Geth, Reapers, and all machine somehow fusing together to create a new lifeform. The thought seemed stupid to me and I couldn't even envision it, so I wanted to see the people the way I remembered them, so even though the Synthesis one seemed to offer the most closure out of all three, I picked the control one because I thought the things would turn out awesome just like the previous games were. Then I checked the other endings from Youtube. Guess what, Blue Explosion, Red Explosion and Green Explosion. Nothing else fucking changes. The Normandy is stranded in a garden world, where possibly it will witness some hardcore interracial action to repopulate the entire planet all by themselves. We don't get to see what happens to the people left behind, or the Fleet, or Hackett, or whatever, it just doesn't provide ANY closure! Damn it I wanted to see Jack and tell her "I kicked some reaper ass" while grabbing hers, not fucking evaporate no matter what I choose, after all the shit I've been through to save the damn galaxy, after being the first damn organic to set foot on the Crucible and being the greatest soldier ever lived. My choices doesn't matter.

Hell, maybe Shepherd really did have to sacrifice himself. But this isn't the way I would do it. Mordin's sacrifice was meaningful. Shepherd's felt stupid, after all this it shouldn't have ended this way.

Overall, the game's score UNTIL the endings take 10/10 from me, they took and pretty much improved over almost everything the previous game's set. Combat, weapons, dialogues, people and places from other games, all felt complete as a whole. EDI was my favourite character overall.

However, AFTER seeing the endings. it's down to a mere 6/10 or 7/10 imo.

So, if someone reads this who didn't finish the game, just keep playing it, and when it comes to the point when you're at the Crucible talking to the AI kid, just quit the game and imagine your favourite way to end the game. Because whatever you'd pick, it would be better than this shit.

You can actually not die, if you have over 5000 EMS and choose destruction. You see exactly what you'd have seen but Shepard is on Earth (???) in rubble and takes a single breath. It's about an addition 4 second clip added on to the usual destruction ending.
