Um... I really gotta ask. What are people so pissed about? There's about six possible endings, and I think I see where the DE:HR comparison comes from, but having played both games, I really have to shoot that one down. Both games gave you choices about how things could end, but for DE:HR it was really about transhumanism. Not so much with Mass Effect.

Six? I'm confused. I heard there were three then sixteen. (My head is already hurting at this point.)

But it appears that people are pissed because the endings pretty much leave with everyone for no hope. That they all pretty much to be variations of "Well, everyone's fucked."

Just goddamnit, I want my ship to be together and hopeful for the future instead of what I was reading. ME2 already hurt me badly with Horizon.

I... just ... I hate being so emotionally abused this way. Still crying right now because I don't know what the hell to do anymore.

I suspect the different numbers are coming from people's definitions of different endings, because they can change in a lot of SMALL ways. I'm just concerned about the BIG ways, like Earth is saved, Shepard dies/lives, etc.

Don't get too down yet, Kia. I'd compare this to when ME2 came out, and people were coming out pissed because they didn't understand how to do the suicide mission properly, and characters were dying. ME3 -just- came out, and there's a lot more variables to deal with this time around for people to deal with.

It's just that it's gotten me so goddamn down that my family is actually freaked out about it.
