For a game like ME that prides itself on making your choices matter and have consequence, to throw all that stuff out the window at the end and give three static choices seems rather pointless, why should I worry about the Geth or the Quarians and their war? Why save Urdnot Wrex on Virmire? The ending means that those hundreds of hours, those hundreds of dollars, all those choices, all those decisions, throughout three whole games, have now become pointless, tell me this, why should I keep playing this game if I'm going to keep being disappointed in the ending, for such a story driven game trilogy like this to have an ending like that, its well, under no circumstance is it acceptable.

Its less like eating good pizza with burnt bits and closer to eating a delicious bowl of soup and at the end, you find out that a fly was swimming in it the whole time or you find a fly in your last spoonful, how are you going to remember that bowl of soup? No matter how good it may have been I will end up remembering it as the soup with a fly in it over how good it was. Think the same thing with ME3.

That said I will still be playing ME3, its still a lot of fun, I try to focus on the good parts of the game, Geth-Quarian conflict, Genophage cure, etc. But the the more I play it, the more flaws I seem to find in it and the more they aggravate me, like the end of the Thessia Mission, there's far too much BS in that fight scene and how I can't do anything even though I was raping him up the a$$ on insanity, up to the point that just leave the room and ignore it. I view the ending a bit like indoctrination (no I don't believe in IT) in that I can only ignore it for so long, until I just start to give in and eventually stop resisting.

And I don't have Diablo 3, my computer is a piece of junk so even if I did have it I couldn't play it, so your argument is INVALID to me. And the game only came out less than 3 months ago so you must be one of those people who see things that are a year old as completely obsolete no matter what they are. And its not the ending that made me lose faith in BioWare but how they responded, instead of at least going, "Hey we know the ending sucks sorry, well try and fix that." they said, "we are proud of our teams artistic vision and will release an extended cut that provides additional clarity and closure, basically more of what you hated in the first place." can you understand why people are so P!ssed at BioWarEA? They're basically telling us why they're crap smells like crap instead of actually doing something about the hunk of turd right in our faces. And they're only releasing the EC in the first place because fans pressured them. Otherwise I'm sure they wouldn't have done anything about it.
