This worries me. We've already paid 60USD for this game, DLC averages about 10-15 per, for something like Arrival, Shadow Broker, and Javik. So for just a simple ending, what might be the actual ending to the game we're gonna have to pay another $10. This is further emphasized by the DLC comment the game ends on. This is robbery; even if Indoctrination Theory is real, and I doubt it is/was (might be now depending on how Bioware plays this off). I want the actual ending to my game with my game, not with DLC.
I don't know, just my two cents.
Control - You can't control the reapers when they are already controlling you. There is a vision of TIM trying to do this. Even Shepard says "So the Illusive Man was right."
Synthesis - Saren went down this path. 60% of you went down this path. Trolololol
Destroy - Star Child IMMEDIATELY vanishes when you pick this option. Shepard wakes up. The dream is over...or has it just begun.
I want the Bioware Mass Effect team to make all games now :)
But we got hope.
I'm about 95% convinced of the indoctrination theory at this point. There's just too much evidence. Too much about it that makes it right.
It really blows my mind to consider what the game does in its final hour. The mind games it plays with you, especially if you roll paragon, is substantial. The renegade option of shooting Illusive Man, the colored choices at the end pushing you from the destroy option, offering a third, harder to get option that doesn't truly bring a best end, trusting the child we know acts for the reapers because we feel Shepard's guilt... This stuff is incredible.
I can't believe a video game did this to me. This is the definition of immersive. We feel indoctrinated ourselves, because as we played it, we had no idea that this manipulation was happening to us.
And I would agree, I don't feel that the ending is incomplete, and I'm glad that closure is left to the imagination. It was the only real way they could end a game like this. Every person playing these games built their own stories around their own Shepards. It's practically impossible to make a concrete, detailed ending while appeasing all of these gamers. I'm fine with what they've done.
Though you're also right, @koreish. It's obvious by the ending message (and it's EA we're talking about) that they're going to milk this ending out for gamers via DLC. I don't want them to do it, but they've already confirmed that they're going to do it. I'm not going to play these DLCs. I'm keeping my ending intact.
if you did the Zaeed loyalty mission in ME2, you'll notice the planet has 2 moons and lush jungle
1. Only encountered TIM at the end at which point he killed himself.
2. Jacob and Miranda left Cerberus on their own. Liara never even met Miranda.
3. Modin* would have cured the genophage had I not shot him.
4. Wrex has been dead since half way through ME1 and Grunt was never a Krogan leader.
5. Garrus don't give a fuck about C-Sec.
6. Anderson was never appointed to the council in the first place and neither was Ashley.
7. Joker wants robo-babies or some shit but I wouldn't say he brags about it.
8. Tali helped unite the Geth and Quarians.
9. Thane got stabbed. Jack was nowhere near him.
10. Liara is forever alone and Kelly is so dead it's not even funny.
11. Nope
Hiding things is not bragging about them. Also, how did they get Shepard to look up and read the text?
Illusive Man doesn't slip away
Jacob and Miranda both left Cerberus, neither come with you
Grunt doesn't lead anything
Garrus /quit C-Sec
Nobody replaces anybody on the council, and Anderson doesn't die on Earth, if we're being technical
I don't really know about the Tali and the geth one; I know she kills herself if you save the geth and aren't pro enough to talk her out of it, but I don't know about the other side
Thane dies incredibly sadly
Liara is an on-again-off-again bitch that asks if you want to stay together when you meet in the beginning, then ignores you until the end, when she acts like you're just friends.
All solid predictions, but I am interested in your fourth - are you calling the Anderson and Tali ones correct?
Also, Tali doesn't kill herself (or even try) if your Reputation is high enough. Legion sacrifices himself
Grunt leads a pack of commandos when you meet the Rachni Queen again
I WAS TOTALLY RIGHT
Oh man I knew it! There IS a Reaper on Earth!
