Gaming Unwrapped Writer Ryan "Rdawg" T Writes - "Mass Effect 3 hit store shelves on March 6th. Finally, all the fans of the game were allowed to play the third installment of the series! You would expect them to be happy, right? As it would turn out, there is a big portion of the fan base that is not happy, and are even openly protesting the title. On March 11th, I posted an article called “Mass Effect 3 Fans are Dumb, Petitions Circulating Regarding Ending“. It started out as nothing more than a mere news post with a couple of my “finely worded” opinions thrown in, but based on the reactions it got, I figured I would expand a bit."
Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.
He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.

Mass Effect 3 is remade, rebuilt, and remastered thanks to a huge Mass Effect mod which changes almost everything in the Bioware RPG, as we await Mass Effect 4

I feel like the ending suite the tone of the game, but you can't compare Mass Effect to other games. It's not really like other narrative driven games in most senses. I can agree that all this uproar is a bit much, but it definitely has some validity.
Excellent post. I agree absolutely. I mean, I actually thought the ending was a great send off to the game. It may not have been as good as I thought it'd be, but it was good nonetheless. People have taken this BioWare and Mass Effect hate a bite too far- it's disrespectful. I mean, the developers work three years on an excellent game and this is how the fans respond. THEY SERIOUSLY EXPECT A PATCH. And they'd also expect BioWare to release it for free, and they'd also expect it to be as high quality as the rest of the game. WHAT THE FRACK?!
Even if people DON'T like the ending, there's no use whining about it so much. They're being disrespectful, and if they actually think BioWare will change the ending, they're just downright stupid.
And it's not about the destination, it's about the journey. The entire game is mind blowing and touching and perhaps one of the best games of this generation. Even if the ending isn't satisfactory for some people, 30 minutes can't ruin the other 30 hours of awesomeness.
Sad, really sad...
ME3 Is easily the best game in the series until the last 15 seconds.

If the rumours about: Indoctrination are true and there is a DLC or something to be released then fine but if the ending is actually an ending then im disappointed.
YES. And great point bringing up Bioshock. I reached that and thought "well, that kinda sucked" and... carried on. Same thinng I'm doing with ME. It's sad, but not as sad as telling the creators they created the wrong thing because it's not what I wanted.
If you bothered to do some research, nobody (well practically nobody) is saying this is a bad game. In almost every post, they claim 99.9 % of the game is amazing. But that last kick in the nuts at the end really...well it's a kick in the nuts. I don't think I need to explain the analogy. Anyway, also we know we're not entitled. At least I do. I'm petitioning to them for an epilogue DLC for better closure and quite frankly a better explanation of the endings. And in that epilogue I want to see some of the ramifications of the all the decisions I've made throughout the series. Because as it stands: they don't add up to squat.
