Mass Effect 3 (expect spoilers for the entire series)

[Aurian]

Already did a replay of Mass Effect 1 and 2 and am holding off on my replay of 3 until the story DLC is done. *twiddles thumbs*

[Agent D.]

So I fiddled with rebellion stuff. No luck on packs, but the thessia map and the new objective missions were fairly decent. It also seems like my battlemaster takes way more punishment now, I was pleased by that. However, it also seems that more idiots are playing now, cuz the three gold runs I attempted were plagued with idiots. I carried teams to round 3 and fi.ally rage quit when people were still running around and not working together.

I swear stupidity is evolving.

Extended ending is out next Tuesday.

OH BOY!

[Yoda]

Is there any info on how it works? Do you just download and watch?

[Ashtrot]

You have to start playing from the Cerberus Base mission.

[Taelus]

Sounds to me like scenes have been added though the final missions. at 1.9 gb, its gotta be some pretty substantial stuff. Crossing my fingers that they 'clarify' the ending to mean INDOCTRINATION.

Yup, it is the biggest single player DLC released so far. Shadow Broker was around 1.6gb and had an awful lot of content.

You know, a Galaga-esque minigame featuring the Normandy against hordes of Reapers wouldn't be so bad.

I think they've said it won't use IT explicitly, but we can still interpret it into the new ending. Or something like that.

But wow, bigger than LotSB? Sweet.

It really isn't one of those things that should be confirmed or made canon, it's fun to make crazy theories but I imagine if that were actually made true it'd feel like the stupidest copout ever.

[kyuusei]

Yeah, that's why I'm glad they're not going to outright use it - even though I like the IT myself.

I have a feeling we'll see all the races we recruited, actually seen in the final battle above Earth, stuff like that. It'd be nice to see the progress on Rannoch too (if you made the right choice).

[Yggdrasil]

So um, this "extended cut" is practically what one would call a patch for the ending? If so that's... really weird. (・_・ヾ

I mean it make sense after all the drama with the ending, but still.

[ZeronHitaro]

I'm actually going to be keeping a close eye on this as it releases. Not for the 'potential trainwreck' that some other will; but because I actually want it to legitimately appease the fans. After reading everything about the ending I have no desire to invest in a 3-game series that ends poorly and contradictorily. If they manage to churn out something that pacifies the more well thought out criticisms of the ending that'll be enough for me to plunge.
