A small minority of the players of the Mass Effect series have voiced their disgust for the lack of “choice” when it comes to the ending of the third and final installment of the series. The writers of Bioware have put in extremely long hours trying to give the series a complete ending that stays loyal to the soul of the franchise. 

Now after numerous negative comments voiced on the internet and other mediums, Bioware has succumbed to the ruthless bashing. They have agreed to release multiple new endings as DLC. Is this just an excuse to make more money from the game?

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We may actually have somewhat of a choice now to end the game!! A small minority dislikes the endings? More like just about every ME fan I talk to. ME3 is a beautiful creation, but that set of endings was utterly depressing, and not just due to the tone of the decision. It’s the fact that I feel like we didn’t really have a say when it came down to it, we were merely given the illusion of choice and stuck with one of several WTF endings. It made me mad that I spent that much time gathering War Assets and solving the galactic hardships and misgivings, to be stuck at the end with a fork in the road…Each of the 3 paths laid before me consist of ” Fuck you” , “Fuck you again” , and “Fuck you a 3rd time!” I love Mass Effect as a genre, a series, and hopefully these new endings make ME3 the total package it can be!!!
