It's a fair point, TBH.

Everyone's so annoyed about the last ten minutes being fixed, but ignores the fact that large parts of the story are dramatically affected by the choices you make. And why the hell would the fate of the galaxy depend on whether you punched a reporter in the face or not anyway?

Because the ending literally makes everything explode. Not even kidding, the Mass Relays explode like Supernovas, consuming everything.

I'm pretty sure that idea isn't intended to cover for narrative failures. A diploma is about the knowledge and experience you gain at school, not the piece of paper you get on graduation day. A cross country trip about seeing the sights and sounds from coast to coast, not pulling into Portland. But a story is every bit as much about the beginning and the middle as it is the end, and the end of this story was very, very bad.

It's died down obviously, but people are never gonna forget that all things considered, it may be the worst ending in gaming history.

It does by implication. Anything else is a retcon. The ending isn't about that, but it's the end result.

Vis payoff, it's pretty much up there. Find me a worse one when it comes down to return for your investment into the story.

If that ad is real- i don't think it is, i saw other fake ones a few months ago with the same backdrop- then i can't think a better use of the phrase xfd damage control. I'm pretty sure the fake one i saw advertised the 'most talked about ending in video game history'

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

The hell? AC games have great mind-f***ery endings.

Also, Revelations ending is one of the few endings I teared up at.

Human Revolution was a bit rushed, but it works within the context of the greater Deus Ex universe. Dunno about AC, but calling HR's as bad as ME3's is...not at all fair to HR.

I never played any of the older games so I can only view HR's endings within the context of that game

I don't think HR's endings are that different from ME3. Both games lock you into choices forced upon you by AIs. The stock footage is only slightly different between the 4 ending in HR. The "explosions" in the 3 ME3 endings are just different colors. We don't get to see the results of any of the endings in both games. ME has a leg up because we get more than just a 2 minute monologue.

Not gonna start with AC. Bad cliffhangers don't make good endings

That's what I mean. Mass Effect is one of the few major game series to actually end its main story, and it ****ed it up something awful. MGS could have "topped" it had Kojima ruined MGS4's ending, but from what I understand, fans were very happy with that one.

Yeah, the ending sucked.

I don't agree with the "It's not about the destination, it's about the journey" to being with anyway. If the biggest moment was the conclusion of anything, and they thoroughly f***ed it up that badly, that's what is going to stick out in my mind. All other stuff is secondary.

It's like eating the greatest bowl of Ice cream, than finding a giant piece of s*** at the bottom, you just lose interest, and that's what happened between me and Mass Effect 3. I had no desire to ever play through it again. Which is a shame, because you should want to do that with the ME series.

I once read a multi-page document about how the ending of ME3 isn't only terrible but makes no sense whatsoever because dozens of things that happen or are said are impossible, direct contradiction, or make no sense whatsoever

Was a good read

The ending definitely sucked. The rest of the game? Awesome, and my favorite of the series. I can mostly ignore the ending since the rest of it was great and they actually managed to craft a very fun multiplayer experience.
