10 Reasons We Hate Mass Effect 3's Ending

Mass Effect 3....oh.

From The Escapist Magazine

Okay I hate to say it but I'm agreeing with all the other fans. Most of the game was brilliant. The little cameos, the goodbyes, 99% of the storyline. But apparently all but one of the writers were locked out of production for the ending and it bloody shows. I went with Synthesis as it seemed the most humane and keeps the most people alive. Then I started thinking, oh I just indoctrinated everyone. I thought about destruction of the reapers, which means destroying the Geth and EDI, who are sentient beings... a genocide that would no doubt perpetuate the cycle of rise / fall, creator / destroyer, slave /master. Yet it's supposed to be the 'perfect' ending and the one where Shephard wakes and takes a breath. Control was ridiculous, and not to be considered.

None of the endings worked for me. The game as a whole was wonderful, the ending made me sob. But while I said I was not dis-satisfied, I am now, after reflection. I feel a little cheated, same as I did when I read the appallingly awful conclusion to the Cave Bear series, which has made me want to donate the other books in the series.
