Topic	Mass Effect 3- How satisfied were you with how it ended the ME Trilogy? [BEE W6]
SmartMuffin 07/07/20 1:20:33 PM #25:	Leonhart4 posted... Anyway, my biggest problem with ME3's ending is not the usual complaint. I think I've only seen like one other person on B8 share this gripe with it. I wanted an unequivocally happy ending for Shepard, not just some 1 second cut that maybe they survived if you picked Destroy and had enough points. Strong disagree. The overwhelming message throughout the series is about the high cost of war. Shep getting a happy ending is absolutely off the table. I voted 3 because it's not flawless, but I'm close to 4 because I do think it's about as good as they could possibly do, given the constraint of having to make it appear like you're giving the players a choice. Their only other option was to go full Last of Us and just force the player into making whatever decision they thought was best, which wouldn't work in a series that was all about moral choices and would have been shit all over even more than this was... --- SmartMuffin - Because anything less would be uncivilized - https://imgur.com/W66HUUy http://dudewheresmyfreedom.com/ <cite>SmartMuffin posted [p:941797648] in Mass Effec...
