    Bioware, really?
    THREE CHOICES, DIE, DIE, OR DIE, REALLY?
    Did anyone get pissed by the ending? Especially when Tali just killed herself, I had to stop letting myself develop any more relationships with the characters, because that game made me way too sad.

    Also, I might add, that I had Tali exiled in the second game by accident, so she killed herself in mine.

    I'm just upset by how none of it makes any sense at all whatsoever, and the lack of any closure at all.

    How could Anderson be in that chasm before Shepard, there's only ONE way to get to it, and you're speaking to him as he navigates a hallway similar to the Collector Base. How did Hackett even know Shepard was there if the entire forces were decimated? How did the Illusive Man get there? How is Shepard breathing in space? How did anything after you stepped inside that beam make any sense at all?

    Well the Illusive man seems to pop up everywhere anyway, so that didn't bother me much, but Shepard dying killed me! I worked so hard on those games! Like, what the hell, and why did it look like you were on a collector base to begin with? That beam was dumb.
    And not only that, Garrus was flirting with Tali right in front of me. I thought Garrus and I were bros!

    Actually,
    I heard from a guy that works at Gamestop, that if you have the fish that I think... Liara gives you(can't really remember) in Mass Effect 2, you'll see people examining the wreckage of the crash at the end and you'll see Shepard take a breath in his suit of armor. I haven't tried it yet though, so I don't know if it's actually a thing.

    Its not a fish...I've never heard anyone talk about needing a fish lol. Thats some trolling if I ever heard it

    You need to have at least 5000 Effective Military Strength and choose the Destroy ending.

    Also, if you don't romance Garrus or Tali, they get with each other. Tali lived in my playthrough, so she stuck with me the whole time.

    Here's a guide on getting different endings

    I found a fanfic that makes the Destroy ending more tolerable. I'm not kidding, look:

    They better make it a free DLC, that'll be the only way to regain the trust of the fans. If we pay money for it we’ll be forced into another news cycle covering further rage as fans ask “how dare they?†Yes, fans would be at fault for buying it, but to quote one fan, “the ending is so unspeakably bad, I’d throw $10 at it just to make it go away.†BioWare might make money exploiting their own mistake, but making your beloved series end on such a sour note that people will pay to make the pain go away is not a sound decision from a business or creative perspective. “Pay us to make your game suck less†is a trick that’s going to work once, and never, ever again.

    I don't blame Bioware. They delivered one ****ing hell of a game, no matter the ending or not, you can't tell me the journey was such an epic ride with morally grey choices, epics scenes, tear jerking moments and all.

    Just look at the Mass Effect 3 thread, it'll tell you more about what I think.

    You really might want to spoiler that post, at least the video. Just sayin'.

    And yeah, Mass Effect 3 is an amazing game no matter what. Its just that, you can't end something that awesome, with such a terrible ending, and not expect such an uproar >:C

    Gonna have to go with no on that. Title of the thread says "ending" impling that there are spoilers (also says spoilers in the title). There for I don't feel the need to put spoilers. But that's just my logic anyway. And besides, the video is just explaining the indoctrination theory.

    People probably would think it was an okay ending if the game went the Dragon Age Origins route and did a "Where are they now" kinda ending.
