User blog comment:The Milkman/BioWare's Lies/@comment-3228423-20120501004518

It's either that Bioware lied to all of our faces on how the ending's going to be extremely varied based on the choices we made throughout the entire trilogy, or that there was this one guy that works for Bioware that hated the fans so much that at the very last minute he switched the good ending out with this horrible one.

The optimist in me says that it was the second one.
