I think I'm finally over ME3 now...

[Broken Blade]

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I'm over the anger, and I've just stopped caring about the series in general. I've been replaying Assassin's Creed.

liek I said..how can you do that?

I? don't know. After all the time and energy and emotional investment I put into it, I really was furious at how terrible I felt the ending was, to the point that I was ranting and raving. But after the anger and feelings of betrayal burned away, I realized I'd stopped caring. Which also infuriates me, because I loved Mass Effect 1 and felt that the second game, while not as good, was still a great game. And I did like the third game. I liked it a lot! Probably the second best in the series. But it's like, those last ten minutes, showing that the creators who had once invested so much time and energy into making this series didn't seem to really care about it anymore, were so bad they dragged everything else down. To think that eighty plus hours of gameplay and decisions led to? that. Just? that. It killed the whole series for me. And I know I sound like I'm coming across as melodramatic, but that's just how horrifically anti-climactic and terrible the ending was to ME. This is just a matter of opinion, and I know there are lots of people who liked the ending, but for me it just sucked so bad that it killed everything else, including my interest. I won't even be downloading that ending DLC when it comes out, and it's FREE. That's how little I care anymore.

I now find both ME3 and the company that made it/stand by it to be legitimately funny. Here's a quick summary of why:

1. Rates as literally flawless on the average "objective" reviewer's sliding scale, despite obvious and numerous problems throughout the game (not just the ending).

2. It's the final installment in a story heavy single player game famous for dedication to it's fanbase, and it's website doesn't even *mention* the single player campaign. Or fan reactions for that matter. If I had to guess from this homepage: http://masseffect.bioware.com/ I'd guess it was an arcade style shoot 'em up that's gonna be made available "free" in a few months.

3. Bioware has an entire egg basket on their collective faces and they're still acting like dandies on their way to the ball with powdered cheeks.

4. People actually genuinely believe Bioware has an intact fanbase.

5. People *still* buy that the "Extended Cut" will be worth the wait.

6. Some people believe the indoctrination theory. STILL.

So yeah, pretty damn funny. I can't help but picture bright wigs and puffy red noses on Bioware/EA officials when they talk about themselves now. Makes it entertaining.

Question: What is RME about exactly? One side says "It's cause Bioware lied about marketing." while others say "It's got too many plot holes."

That's like saying "what's the GOP about?" Well, they all like guns, I can tell you that much. After that it's every man for himself.

Kinda sad no one can be set on what they were exactly mad about.

well now that you people posting about disappointment and have finished your mass effect games.
Why not start with Myth II Soulblighter, 10 dollars on ebay. In its twelfth year running the Myth world cup tournament will begin in a months time, so we are looking for new blood to continue the legacy of this epic game.

Mass effect had its time, its now time for a older game that will not remove 100$ from your savings only to be ashamed later on for fooling for EA's effective Old tricks.

I was super pissed at the ending: I didn't touch my Xbox for 3 days (that's really something for me)
I felt slightly better about it when I saw the internet raging about it.
But then I watched Avatar(the only thing I'm more nerdy about than mass effect) for the first time in 2 years and I realised I didn't care for any of the characters in ME3 anymore.
That shows you how fickle I am...

I forgot about ME3 after picking up dark souls. Best decision ever.

WoW and BF3 for me. Then again, I was never really upset about the ending. It was just a 'eh so that happened' moment for me and I moved on.
