BioWare "Considering" Mass Effect 3 Ending Feedback

[Mar 19, 2012, 09:42 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Mass Effect Facebook Page has word that, contrary to previous indications, BioWare is actively looking at the negative backlash to the conclusion of Mass Effect 3 and the resolution of the Commander Shepard trilogy in the action/RPG series (which has apparently inspired FTC complaints). Here's word:

We are aware that there are concerns about a recent post from this account regarding the ending of the game. In this post it was stated that at this time we do not have plans to change the ending.

We would like to clarify that we are actively and seriously taking all player feedback into consideration and have ruled nothing out. At this time we are still collecting and considering your feedback and have not made a decision regarding requests to change the ending.

Your feedback and opinions are of the utmost importance to us. We apologize for any confusion this has caused. Our top priority regarding this discussion is to keep communication with you, our loyal fans, open and productive.

All of your little choices you made don't matter. Those choices mattering have been the hallmark of this 100+ hour trilogy. This. The ending repeats the same mistake that DX made. Nothing you did before the ending matters. The ending to any RPG should be the culmination of the choices you made throughout the game (or in this case, throughout three games). I wanted to see the long-term impact that my choices had on my companions and the different races. Unfortunately, the ME3 endings didn't provide any of this. Instead, we got three slightly different endings that ignore pretty much everything you did up until that point. That's the issue that everyone has with them. Okay, it was a little forced. I had Fawkes who could withstand any amount of radiation with me and she wouldn't go in there. But it still worked as an ending. Eh, I thought FO3's ending was as lame as ME3's. New Vegas had a much better ending(s) than both games. You saw the fates of your companions and the various factions you were involved with. It was a very conclusive and satisfying ending. There's also the fact that MP scoring can influence your SP ending which frankly is bullshit. Multiplayer makes it easier to max out your military preparation score but it's still easy to max it out without playing multiplayer at all. However, that score ends up meaning relatively little in the end. This comment was edited on Mar 19, 2012, 12:37.
