Avemir _ it’s a shame though.. they hinted and showed Shepard lives.. I guess I just wanted a reunion with Shepard, Garrus, Tali, Liara, Kaiden or Ashley and everyone else after the reaper war.. one can hope you never know.. although I’m looking forward to the next game either it’ll be Mass Effect 4 or Andromeda 2 I’ll be happy. Hope your doing well with this corona virus outbreak 👍
The end to this DLC leads into the final mission perfectly. One final party, one last chance to spend time with your friends... hell, your family... one final time before facing down the inevitable... and it’s been one hell of a ride... no... the best.
I know a lot of people like to re load and complete this last to leave on a happy note but honestly I love doing before the final mission it just makes it feel like you're fighting for more your fighting so you can have another party and get old together lol I know I didn't explain it to well sorry
"I guess its back to the fight." "At least we threw one hell of a party. Probably the last one." "That doesnt sound like my girl. You will find a way to win, and when this is over, Ill be waiting for you. Best times of my life were spent on that ship. Been a damn good ride." "...The best."
I feel like the devs are emotionally attached to the characters too. "Hey, it's probably the last time we will be working with them, so let's give them some hollywood gun-blazing and throw them a nice farewell party."
ALL DLC FAREWELLS TO MAKE YOU CRY: "Best times of my life were spent on that ship. Been a damn good ride" -Garrus "Severing on a human ship? I never would have guessed and I wouldn't trade it for anything. We've had a good ride" -Tali "Yeah. Greatest challenge of my life and the greatest reward. It's been a good ride" -Kaidan "I wouldn't have missed any of it for the world. It's been a damn good ride"-Ashley "We've been through a lot haven't we? But it's been a good ride"-Liara "I would not trade the time I had with you for anything. It was a good fight" -Thane "I wouldn't say it's been easy but we had a good run"-Miranda "You know, for all the shit we've been through, we've had a damn good ride."-Jack "This wasn't what I signed up for, but it's been a good ride"-Samantha "Craziest time of my life, but it's been a good ride"-Cortez "Can't wait to see what the hell you make us do next. But it's been a good ride"-Joker
MelodyMilan I have to wonder, if his spirit actually did walk up, does that mean she met him across the sea if she died in the ending, what does that mean for religion in general for Mass Effect
This is the last we ever see of commander shepard for the rest of eternity. It's been a hell of a ride, exploring the galaxy with the Normandy's crew, despite it being just a game, it's an experience I'll never forget. There were laughs, intense moments and tragic ones, no group of game characters have ever been able to make me feel so much for them, and Bioware managed it. Say what you will about the ending, all three games, even the third one, were absolutely amazing.
I still hope that shepard will live in the fourth part because when you have enough points he breathes at the end so i hope that you can import your character and he lives with tali or whoever he chose to be with, happily because he earned it to end his live in a peace he made after loosing so much i want him to be truly happy
StarkoftheNorth I don't want some cheesy encounter between Shepard and the ME4 protagonist with a "Go get 'em" or anything like that, but I would love it if there were some obscure easter egg where you can find evidence that he/she's retired somewhere with the love interest. Nothing too in your face, but a nice subtle happy ending. :)
Legate Terrik The problem with that is it only carry's over if 2 options in the same play thought is used, IE: Spacer and Renegade end. So you have a Mom and you destroyed the reapers, witch would mean only importing that 1 play thought would let you get the info your all wanting. Personally speaking I think we should all let Shepard rest he has done more than enough be it he lived or dies, if anyone a hint like maybe an Easter egg or something that gives a hint as to what became of him/her but nothing major. I'm quite happy with his end.
It leads into the final mission perfectly. One final party, one last chance to spend time with your friends... hell, your family... one final time before facing down the inevitable... and it’s been one hell of a ride... no... the best.
Anderson's death was very moving to me. In my playthrough, Shepard was the survivor of a Batarian raid, having seen everyone he cared about die. And then, on that platform on the Citadel, he sits with Anderson, his mentor, his father figure. And before Anderson dies, he tells Shepard how proud of him he is. Something Shepard never asked for, but something he desperately needed to hear.
Yeah, it's really though once you completed it to just face the fact there there is only that one mission left in your log. The name that spells painful ending. "Priority: Cerberus Headquarters" And that warning when you arrive in the system to start it. "Are you sure ? You won't be able to stop the events leading to the Battle for Earth after starting this mission." Yup. Citadel DLC for you. A proper sendoff.
@@tywinlannister8015 Well... there is the citadel dlc epiloque mod if you want to finish the game with the dlc, to make it more immersive you can use one of the ending mods where shepard survives
@@arshka0009 I actually prefer it as it is. One last drink before the end of the World style. In my head canon the Citadel Party takes places in the time it takes Alliance Intelligence to track down the Illusive man.
Sometimes you get lucky in life. I consider myself lucky to have discovered, lived and breathed Mass Effect. I envy those who have yet to discover it for themselves but at the same time I can't wait for them to do so. From the first game when I started a ride and never knew what was coming next to where we find ourselves now. Wondering what is next. Whatever happens I know that the past few years have been a treasured video game experience that I can repeat. As for the fourth installment? I trust that I will not be disappointed. Minds that created and grew this universe will do something spectacular again. "I've got a good feeling about this one."
***** My apologies. I should have said "orignally released". The PC version was ported the following year. And the PS3 didn't see a release until EA came in. It was an XBOX exclusive in 2007.
Sums up the entire experience of the trilogy for me. I felt as if I was there through all the hardships and adventures right along with the crew. This is my favorite game series of all.
Remus88Romulus What makes it even more sad is Jacks reply (not exact) ............ "Screw that shit. were gonna kick the reapers to hell.......Then your taking me out dancing......... We've had one hell of a ride."
I played through the whole game for the first time with all the dlc, did the citadel stuff right before the ending, and in that very last moment when Shepard sacrifices himself, I remembered I had told Dr. Chakwas that we'd save that Brandy for after we won the war. :(
This song makes me cry EVERY time. Makes me think of my family that are thousands of miles away. Mass Effect isn't just a video game, it's truly an experience. I'll always cherish it.
I don't know what's worse... The fact that I can't wipe my memory and experience the trilogy again with all these emotions or the fact that it ended and I never got to have little blue babies with Liara :'( Damn you BioWare!
This was saddest for me because it was the end of the line. five years, 100+ hours, three games. It's rare that we can care for characters like those of The ME Universe. This was the ride off into the sunset and that can be tough.
This music is all that remains of my childhood and my happiness. All that's remains of the time when I was alone, but not lonely. Thanks, old Bioware. You made me feel like I was important to someone. And that someone would take care of me in return. It's a pity that this doesn't happen in real life.
Fucking Mass Effect. I really love a ton of video games in which i got emotional involved in. But fuckn mass effect gets me every time. It only needs a song or a scene or just a quote to bring me back into this fantastic universe. It feels like for one short moment, the world disappears, and theres just the Galaxy Map and the millions of storys. memories and feelings laying there. Fuck the end, mass effect was maybe on of the best things i ever was able to be a part of. I hope there will be the day, where people start to begin that video games are art, and that mass effect beats the shit out, of 99% of every actuall hollywood movie. Thanks Bioware. Lol, wtf brain
I've always played a Fem Shep, I think I was more drawn to her voice than anything. I've honestly never been so attached and emotionally invested to a game trilogy in my life. Forever going to be in my top 5 games... got to have room for future games to have a chance.
This song assassinated my heart. In this moment you remember every single detail of every person you've come to meet and you can feel the end coming, it hits hard man /:
"I am glad you were able to take time to celebrate. You deserve it." "I wish you could have been here with me." "I am always with you, Siha. I would not trade the time I had with you for anything. It was a good fight." "...A great fight." "Then go and finish it. And when you go to the sea, I will be waiting for you at the shore."
Mass effect a series i will not forget. this song remind me of how heartbroken i was at that moment. just standing there looking into the space. thinking that my favorite character shepard's last chapter was here. just the thought of never hearing Garrus bragging about his sniper skills again :(
Never getting to see Tali's people rebuild their homeworld Never getting see EDI learn how to be human Never again hearing about Liara's Shadow Broker adventures Never seeing a future for the Krogan's Never getting to see your love interest again, your friends, hell even your enemies and rivals A strange feeling, knowing you approach the end. The Citadel DLC grants you that brief repute, a chance to reflect, to kick back and just enjoy this crazy thing called life that you spent 3 games fighting for. It gives you that Eye of the Storm clarity of facing the end. And it works so well because we the player (assuming they saw the ending before this DLC) we know whats coming. Most of the fans hated the endings and they feel angry and betrayed that after such a fun time, they have to face that. Others are just melancholy at knowing many will die. Yet we all have one feeling in common as our Sheppard's watch their crew board the Normandy. We feel happy, be it happy with the experience of the DLC, a particular game, or even the whole trilogy from the first time you set foot on the Citadel to charging that beam for one last push. As a fan, love or hate ME3, we all enjoyed the ride at least ;)
nintendomaster9793 The whole reason behind Shepard breathing in the pile of rubble in the "Destroy" ending even stated by BioWare was to be able to imagine your own ending past that point. You can already assume that Shepard in that ending if he survived was to eventually end up surprising everybody and reuniting with his love interest and retiring along with the rest of the crew.
Ace Tsuyoshi Tiros From what i have heard. even by angry joe and i think even bioware stated it. is that the indoctrination theory deosn't work because of their new ending that made a bigger baground to the crucibel and gave shepard a chance to fight on (but he would die)
Christian Loizzi I would have liked to see my Shepard reunite with Tali (and the rest of the crew) and live on Rannoch, but hell, that's what does happen with my Shepard, it's been a good ride (I choose destroy, I was sick of the Reapers shit)
Middlefingestudios1 id wish to see a scene with Miranda looking up at the stars after the destroy ending and a slightly still injured Shepard puts his hand on her shoulder and turns her around with the words "I found you"
Honestly; I came close to crying [SPOILERS] when Thane died, when Legion died, and when Mordin died, but quite simply, I didn't cry. Nearly did, but didn't. This scene? This made me cry. Only scene in any game that has genuinely made tears flow, and I'm not ashamed to admit that. I romanced Garrus, and as he talks in this scene, you can see him welling up. That, even more than Legion's sacrifice, broke my heart.
+Thane Krios I like this game and life is strange, both have a great story, but I like mass effect more, because of this DLC and more emotional storyline.
This song couldn't be more perfectly named, When I heard this the first time and I heard "it was a good ride" and had my BroShep whisper "The Best". I lost it, It was the Inevitable End of Shepherd, Liara, Garrus, etcetera. However even as their faces fade from our memories we might tell our kids the story of "The Shepherd" who united a galaxy. Keelah Se'lai.
"James told me there's an old saying on Earth: May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead. Not sure if turian heaven is the same as yours, but if this thing goes sideways and we both end up there... meet me at the bar... I'm buying."
I played the games backwards initially. I got 3 first, and thought it was incredible. Then I played 2 and thought it was amazing. Then I got 1 and had my first play through that went across all 3 games. That's when I realized that games can be as emotional than real life, as I teared up over a bunch of pixels on my screen holding a moment of silence for the end of Shepard. It was probably the best ride of my life.
When Shepard said "The best" and then gone, it shows having fun is just a temporary thing and then we are back to harsh reality, Reapers destroying planets, making life and death decisions etc. This applies to real life too, we often take vacations and forgets all sorts of problems that would keep us awake at night and after having fun we go back to normal routine and make us feel depressed. I just love Mass Effect so much
This song makes me remember. All those long nights in my basement with my xbox. I'll miss you guys. And anyone who's a friend to the Mass Effect Trilogy is a friend of mine.
When Shepard said "The best" I cried like a little girl!! It was perfect How to stop crying during the passage of Mass Effect 3??? So many years have passed and I cry all the time when I play this game..
This game has changed me as a person so much. It feels like I have a connection with each character. I can't stop thinking about it every day. Truly a blessing to have experienced this story (kinda had to use my imagination for a legit ending). When I die I want to reborn as Commander Shepard, fall in love, and save the galaxy
All the mass effect games will hold a special place in my heart .....they are just so fun,dramatic it gets you to like characters you thought you would hate and you get so attached to these characters when you see them get killed it hurts you in a way "Does this unit have a soul?"
I remember when mass effect first hit the shelves....my first time playing. It drew me in...It was beautifully written and was the first game I ever cried to...Mass effect 2 and mass effect 3 followed and i played them all with the DLC and it was just...emotional...well written...full of characters I loved and hated to see die...the normandy was fun and it but when it came to the missions and the side quests it was everything you wanted from an RPG... It was and will always remain in my heart...I was commander shepherd and I died commander shepherd...one hell of a ride.... :')
For the first time, I feel like Mass Effect has truly and properly ended. Thanks for making this Bioware, and thanks to whoever uploaded this song, I can't stop listening to my final new moment with the Normandy crew. Truly it was the best of rides, Commander.
You could tell that this scene wasn't just the characters saying goodbye to each other for the last time, but it was also BioWare telling us the fans that they're going to miss this world and these characters just as much as we will.
If ther is one game franchise which almost changed my life, it is Mass Effect! NEVER have I felt as atached to a game's characters like i did with these games. Since I knew this was the last we would ever see of Shepard and his friends, I was really sad hearing this, knowing this was the utimate goodbye to the incredible series. For me, the title "Farewell and into the inevitable" seems to be the most fitting title for such an emotional piece of music.
I listened to this many times and every time I start to feel empty this game just broke my heart I will never forget you Garrus, Tali, Liara, Rex, Thane, Miranda, Mordin, Samara, Jack, Grunt, Ashley, Kayden, Jacob , James, Joker, EDI. This game series will always be in my heart
this song is incredible for it depicts so perfectly the situation ... The first notes are sad, dramatic but sudddenly ... well, hope appears at 0:37, the song remains sad but you feel that victory is possible . This is my favourite soundtrack because it perfectly fits with Shepard's thoughts.
I downloaded the Happy Ending Mod and far as I'm concerned, my Shepherd's relaxing somewhere in the Cosmos with Liara, a few blue children and of course the occasional reunion party with everyone from the Normandy. Words can't express how perfect this trilogy was. As silly as it sounds when talking about a video game, this is an experience that will stick with you, forever. Escapism at its finest. My only regret is not being able to play the series again for the first time.
DRG124 I know I'm late to the punch, but I did the same thing. I like to think my Shepard is living on Rannoch with Tali, watching the sunrise with her every morning.
I’m even later to the party, but the surprise cliffhanger best destroy ending is shit. Cliffhangers work for a continued suspense in anticipation for a next installment. It does NOT do well as the final second of a game people poured heart and soul into.
I'm hella late to the party, but I downloaded Less Is More Ending and the Citadel Ending Mod. It ends with Shepard being found, then the Citadel DLC starts after the credits. So this part is the very end of the game.
For those saying, "I wish I could play it again for the first time": you can. Stop playing. I played the trilogy for the first time back in 2015, then didn't touch it again until last month. It'd been so long, I'd forgotten 75% of plot points and events. It felt very fresh, despite having seen most of it before. So, want to do it again? Stop playing, put it away. Then come back much later.
The 25% you remember are the bits you'd want to experience for the first time again. You're not providing a soloution your not understanding the problem.
The only story I know that's made me cry. I hate admitting to crying, but Mass Effect is just, it's so great. Shepard and his team are so believable. Unlike a lot of games, you feel like you're there, experiencing everything with all of them. You start with the first game, you grow attachments to all of them over the course of the first and second, and then you get hit by the emotional rollercoaster that is the third. You miss them when it's all over. It truly is something unique.
I just feel respect for the team who worked their asses every day having a publisher like that and in the end, managed to still deliver some of the best moments of the triology, a great multiplayer and one of the best downloadable content I've ever played. Many things were wrong in this game, many things could have been improved, yes, the absence of people like Jack Wall, Drew Karpyshyn, Armando Troisi and others was really felt, and having only two years to develop the largest game in the franchise was ridiculously difficult. But knowing the living hell the developement of this game was, they did a beautiful, and overall epic experience, one I will never forget...
Can't even make it 10 seconds into this song without choking up. I cannot wait for the next series that has as much of an emotional impact as Mass Effect did on me.
Mass effect is one of only veeerrrrryyy few games that truly changed/helped me as a person. It’s the best experience I ever had in gaming. And if I could somehow play it again “for the first time” I would
Live your life to the fullest so that when death approaches you do not beg for more time. Approach death with a full heart and a smile on your face knowing you did what you could with the time that you had.
Mass Effect really does capture my heart and make me question what's out there beyond those stars. What humanity could find and accomplish, whether it would be that we find peace, war, immortality, etc. If we could have such deep friendships with other species like what Commander Shepard had. People see games as fictional rubbish which exploits children etc... Me? I see it as a window into people's imaginations on what they think could happen in the future, or what the past was like, or maybe something more. We'll never truly know. . .
So much more. When we reach into the deep within our soul, we may find the greatness we all seek. Our imagination is the key. Where the key is found, is up to us. The stories we read, create, see, hear, and so much more. The games we play. The infinity of the universe lies within our minds. Its beauty in our hearts.
I don’t remember it exact, but when Garrus tells Shepard he’ll meet him in that bar in the sky I cried, and hard too. Screw anyone who didn’t at least get hit with that scene, what a legend
That's the hardest bit. After over 100 hours of my own crafted, customized and comfortable Shepard, I had to put him away eventually. ME series will always hold a strong place in my heart and it's why I've kept my 360, with a harddrive with all the DLC for all 3 games on it, should I ever want to go through the whole thing for what would soon be the 4th time heh.
i will always remember the mass effect series as being one of the most emotional i have ever played... The choices, the consequences of those choices good or bad, the crew and most of all the soundtrack. A fitting end for commander Shepard i felt when i finished this game. Thank you Bioware, It's been a damn good ride.
Mass Effect will always have a special place in my heart. It doesn't seem to matter how many times i play through, i laugh at the jokes, smile at the happy moments and cry. Oh boy there are a few times that earn the tears. This song, this scene is easily in the top two. You just feel everything leading to this point, the characters you've come to know so well, every fight, every choice and it is all about to end. Even though my head cannon is that Shepard survives and retires with Kaiden to some small colony this song still makes me cry, My hat is forever off to the composer and devs for bringing this to life.
Every time I listening this music, I remember our final party with school friends before graduation. We met last time our big company and than most of immigrated or just start a new life. It’s was on of the best moments in my life and I will be always miss for our meetings in my flat…
When i completed the Mass Effect saga, when Shepard sacrifice himself/herself to save the galaxy, i cried for days listening this music and the song "an end once and for all", in my opinion it's the saddest game I've played until now, and the best and epic one.
I was lucky enough to play the same save file through all the games Mass Effect 1 to Mass Effect 3......Paragon and Renegade playthrough. I got to experience the game with the first ending and the Update ending. Hands down.....Best adventure I ever had on a console.....or ever will have.Thank you for sharing this Masterpiece with the World.
I feel some tingling in my heart on this theme, as I remember mass effect... Thank god I still have copies of all three. Gonna treasure them for my grandkids.
Such an amazing trilogy, a single track from it is enough to want to make me cry, there was only a single thing from Andromeda that made me like that, that one audio log: "On behalf of the crew of the Normandy SR-2 this is doctor Liara T'soni signing off" That one got me.
god damn. I don't want Shepard's story to be over with so many unanswered questions. so many things left to do. But just like they said. Its been one hell of a ride and i was so happy to be a part of it until the end. RIP Shepard. you will live on forever in the hearts and minds of so many gamers around the world.
Those series are something more than just the games. Mass Effect has created with players so emotional relationship, that some of them can't get up after playing. Liara, Thane, Garrus and every other squad member... I think the main battle wasn't really about the Reapers, but the small clearing of each heart. It like EDI - we love those characters, and I don't give a damn they are unreal! They all taught me so much... Thank you.
It was a great ride. They were like friends. Seeing it all end.. the final DLC - it broke my heart. I never imagined a video game would get to me so much.
If it takes place after ME3, then it'll probably provide us with some worthy cameos or references. Also, Liara is an Asari. Asari can become a 1000 years old.
kucharz508 I think they will chose only 1 ME3 ending for ME4. Destroy probably, because other 2 is too "ideal", and Refuse means that our cycle is ended. Also Destroy is only ending with Shepard's survive probability. Hint maybe?
mihan2d It's highly unlikely to be a sequel... Especially since they've stated it will most likely have NOTHING to do with anything Shepard. Not him, his friends, his actions, or even the world he did it in... So yeah... See it as freestanding restart of the franchise... Like Deus Ex:Revolution was to Deus Ex... Set before Deus Ex and more or less having nothing to do with anything that happened in previous games. But keeping the world and feel of the universe... Making a prequel or even a universe reboot is MUCH easier than a sequel (And since they've repeatedly stated Shepard's story ends in ME3 no matter what) because you never have to chose a canon choice, giving you MUCH more freedom.
Zathaghil Hmm... I don't agree, How does playing through a story where the ending is already detemined, give you any more freedom? Lets say... The Rachni wars. No matter what choices are made, they wouldn't matter since the outcome has already been written. Even if they go way back and write a story about a previous cycle, everyone would still die in the end. Its like reading the last chapter of a book. What is the point of reading the rest of it, if you already know what will happen in the end?
"I MADE A MISTAKE!" "Judge us not by our methods but by what we seek to accomplish" "Go kick some reaper ass" "Im... proud of you..." Some of the best ME quotes
"This is it, isn't it?" "Go out there and give them hell." "May you be in Heaven half an hour before the Devil knows you're dead...if this thing goes south and we both end up there, meet me at the bar. I'm buying." "I don't need luck. I have ammo."
"Well, I think you're just a big, stupid, jellyfish." "Shepard I-" "I know." "I love you" "Keelah Selai" "I am the Harbinger of your perfection" "Throw it out the airlock, commander" "I don't know what chicken is, but I heard everything in the galaxy tastes like it." "Its biofiltered turian brandy, decontaminated, and introduced to the suit through an emergency induction port." "That's a straw Tali" "Its actually getting harder to fit it into the slot, I think that means its working" "Damn war" "I only recycle the Normandy's oxygen when I find something TRULY interesting." *freaked out Shepard face* "That was a joke"
Just the name, Farewell and into the inevitable, makes me cry. I don't want to say Farewell to Mass Effect, and if they mess up Remastering this trilogy, it will absolutely break my heart.

Its not a game. Its an experience.
Too bad that experience ended in a fatal car crash, mere two blocks away from our final destination...
The ending was not that bad. It just didn't do the story justice. Besides, it's about the journey, isn't it?
I say this to anyone that has never played ME.
The ending was bad AND disappointing but your point is well taken.....
though the ending could of been WAAAY better, its still no where near as bad as some games.
"We've had a good ride "
"The best"
I get choked up everytime I hear that line. Great game, great soundtrack.
Please, Father.
Tell me another story about The Shepard. :'(
Mutski1579 hopefully one day my friend
@@estelasayeed5608 As much as I would love it, they said that Shepards story is officially over :
Avemir _ it’s a shame though.. they hinted and showed Shepard lives.. I guess I just wanted a reunion with Shepard, Garrus, Tali, Liara, Kaiden or Ashley and everyone else after the reaper war.. one can hope you never know.. although I’m looking forward to the next game either it’ll be Mass Effect 4 or Andromeda 2 I’ll be happy. Hope your doing well with this corona virus outbreak 👍
"Everybody say Normandy" *sobs uncontrollably*
eskimpertush And a video playlist of time spent together is shown on their gravestones. Making this even more sad than it already is.
''NORMANDYYYYYYYYYYYY'' *click*
Kept the pic on my phone for the nostalgia
Yeah that got me to i say it everytime😢😢😢
I actually cried at that part
The end to this DLC leads into the final mission perfectly.
One final party, one last chance to spend time with your friends... hell, your family... one final time before facing down the inevitable... and it’s been one hell of a ride... no... the best.
I know a lot of people like to re load and complete this last to leave on a happy note but honestly I love doing before the final mission it just makes it feel like you're fighting for more your fighting so you can have another party and get old together lol I know I didn't explain it to well sorry
"I guess its back to the fight."
"At least we threw one hell of a party. Probably the last one."
"That doesnt sound like my girl. You will find a way to win, and when this is over, Ill be waiting for you. Best times of my life were spent on that ship. Been a damn good ride."
"...The best."
:'(
Ahhhhh Garrus!!!! I miss you sooo TT^TT
Damn well felt like it... :’)
I feel like the devs are emotionally attached to the characters too.
"Hey, it's probably the last time we will be working with them, so let's give them some hollywood gun-blazing and throw them a nice farewell party."
Damn well was real to me... :’)
ALL DLC FAREWELLS TO MAKE YOU CRY:
"Best times of my life were spent on that ship. Been a damn good ride" -Garrus
"Severing on a human ship? I never would have guessed and I wouldn't trade it for anything. We've had a good ride" -Tali
"Yeah. Greatest challenge of my life and the greatest reward. It's been a good ride" -Kaidan
"I wouldn't have missed any of it for the world. It's been a damn good ride"-Ashley
"We've been through a lot haven't we? But it's been a good ride"-Liara
"I would not trade the time I had with you for anything. It was a good fight" -Thane
"I wouldn't say it's been easy but we had a good run"-Miranda
"You know, for all the shit we've been through, we've had a damn good ride."-Jack
"This wasn't what I signed up for, but it's been a good ride"-Samantha
"Craziest time of my life, but it's been a good ride"-Cortez
"Can't wait to see what the hell you make us do next. But it's been a good ride"-Joker
MelodyMilan Thane.....T_T
+Seth ノートン He's there if you do citadel before i dies, i guess.
Nope...his spirit comes in, either actually happening or in Shepard's head, it's very sad
MelodyMilan
Ooooh. I remember now.
MelodyMilan I have to wonder, if his spirit actually did walk up, does that mean she met him across the sea if she died in the ending, what does that mean for religion in general for Mass Effect
This is the last we ever see of commander shepard for the rest of eternity. It's been a hell of a ride, exploring the galaxy with the Normandy's crew, despite it being just a game, it's an experience I'll never forget. There were laughs, intense moments and tragic ones, no group of game characters have ever been able to make me feel so much for them, and Bioware managed it. Say what you will about the ending, all three games, even the third one, were absolutely amazing.
I still hope that shepard will live in the fourth part because when you have enough points he breathes at the end so i hope that you can import your character and he lives with tali or whoever he chose to be with, happily because he earned it to end his live in a peace he made after loosing so much i want him to be truly happy

I don't want some cheesy encounter between Shepard and the ME4 protagonist with a "Go get 'em" or anything like that, but I would love it if there were some obscure easter egg where you can find evidence that he/she's retired somewhere with the love interest. Nothing too in your face, but a nice subtle happy ending. :)
ScionydePC Maybe have a character make a reference to it. Or maybe get a message from Admiral Shepard... Lol.
Legate Terrik The problem with that is it only carry's over if 2 options in the same play thought is used, IE: Spacer and Renegade end.
So you have a Mom and you destroyed the reapers, witch would mean only importing that 1 play thought would let you get the info your all wanting.
Personally speaking I think we should all let Shepard rest he has done more than enough be it he lived or dies, if anyone a hint like maybe an Easter egg or something that gives a hint as to what became of him/her but nothing major.
I'm quite happy with his end.
The343freak 100% agree What a phenomenal trilogy!
I think besides Andersons "I'm proud of you," line, the very end of the citadel dlc is easily the best part in the game.
totally true
”it had to be me someone else might have gotten it wrong”
“The best.”
It leads into the final mission perfectly.
One final party, one last chance to spend time with your friends... hell, your family... one final time before facing down the inevitable... and it’s been one hell of a ride... no... the best.
Anderson's death was very moving to me. In my playthrough, Shepard was the survivor of a Batarian raid, having seen everyone he cared about die. And then, on that platform on the Citadel, he sits with Anderson, his mentor, his father figure. And before Anderson dies, he tells Shepard how proud of him he is. Something Shepard never asked for, but something he desperately needed to hear.
The Citadel DLC was the ending that Mass Effect deserved.
:(
Yeah, it's really though once you completed it to just face the fact there there is only that one mission left in your log.
The name that spells painful ending.
"Priority: Cerberus Headquarters"
And that warning when you arrive in the system to start it. "Are you sure ? You won't be able to stop the events leading to the Battle for Earth after starting this mission."
Yup. Citadel DLC for you. A proper sendoff.
@@tywinlannister8015 Well... there is the citadel dlc epiloque mod if you want to finish the game with the dlc, to make it more immersive you can use one of the ending mods where shepard survives
@@arshka0009 I actually prefer it as it is. One last drink before the end of the World style.
In my head canon the Citadel Party takes places in the time it takes Alliance Intelligence to track down the Illusive man.
@@tywinlannister8015 That also seems nice. For me tho, i prefer it to be the end. That way i can sleep the next night
Yes, it is the ending, on PC it's call "Citadel Epilogue Mod" ;)
Manly tears were shed, damn you Bioware.
Put the blame where it belongs, blame EA. Also re-read that in Shepard's voice.
But also thank you!
Farewell, Shepard.

Sometimes you get lucky in life. I consider myself lucky to have discovered, lived and breathed Mass Effect. I envy those who have yet to discover it for themselves but at the same time I can't wait for them to do so. From the first game when I started a ride and never knew what was coming next to where we find ourselves now. Wondering what is next. Whatever happens I know that the past few years have been a treasured video game experience that I can repeat. As for the fourth installment? I trust that I will not be disappointed. Minds that created and grew this universe will do something spectacular again. "I've got a good feeling about this one."
+Beefache Which platform do you use?
The first game only came out on XBOX so I played the whole trilogy on that platform.
Beefache Same, I haven't gone next gen yet but I'm certain I will have done by the time ME4 comes out. See you online ;)
*****
My apologies. I should have said "orignally released". The PC version was ported the following year. And the PS3 didn't see a release until EA came in. It was an XBOX exclusive in 2007.
To this day I'm greatful to my friend for convincing me to play. My life was changed forever and I'm not even overreacting.
"The Best......"
The subtlety with which he says these 2 words honestly bring chills to my spine.
Sums up the entire experience of the trilogy for me. I felt as if I was there through all the hardships and adventures right along with the crew. This is my favorite game series of all.
@@hawk66100 Same. My second best after Final Fantasy. ME really affected me.
As good as Hale is, Mark Meer will always be my Commander Shepard.
I wish I could experience the Mass Effect trilogy for the first time again :(
SpongeMixify The immersion I felt originally playing Mass Effect 2 was something I cannot describe.
SpongeMixify ME Andromeda is our hope.
***** Perhaps our only hope
+Pablo Roca Man imagine if you can import your save file from ME3, and if you had a LI the character you play as is Shepard's son/daughter
Don't we all
"We sure throwed one hell of a party..... Probably the last one.".....
Remus88Romulus ....every... godamn... time...
unh
Remus88Romulus I cry every time :''''''''''''(
Remus88Romulus um, I dont want to be "that guy" but it's 'threw' not throwed.
Remus88Romulus What makes it even more sad is Jacks reply (not exact) ............ "Screw that shit. were gonna kick the reapers to hell.......Then your taking me out dancing......... We've had one hell of a ride."
+Remus88Romulus The best.
I played through the whole game for the first time with all the dlc, did the citadel stuff right before the ending, and in that very last moment when Shepard sacrifices himself, I remembered I had told Dr. Chakwas that we'd save that Brandy for after we won the war.
:(
SergioSource Don't worry, if you drink it there and then it feels awkward because it was a tradition and it had a sad feeling to it.
+SergioSource Never forget! T_T
+SergioSource yeah, after I saw the ending, I now have the drink with her, one last toast
you know it's been a good game when you ask yourself what will be happening to your left behind mates, while the credits rolled^^
SergioSource I wanted to have that drink with Dr Chocolates too.
This song makes me cry EVERY time. Makes me think of my family that are thousands of miles away. Mass Effect isn't just a video game, it's truly an experience. I'll always cherish it.
"The best."
dough1595 the best :')
dough1595 The best.
dough1595 The best.
The best.
The best.
I don't know what's worse... The fact that I can't wipe my memory and experience the trilogy again with all these emotions or the fact that it ended and I never got to have little blue babies with Liara :'( Damn you BioWare!
In my imagination, she got preggers that last time with you. Because screw the end of the world.
Or just get the best destroy ending
@@Robert399 I did it with my MaleShep. And I keep thinking about what may have happened with Tali (I chose her).
Hope you did experience it again
This was saddest for me because it was the end of the line. five years, 100+ hours, three games. It's rare that we can care for characters like those of The ME Universe.
This was the ride off into the sunset and that can be tough.
This music is all that remains of my childhood and my happiness. All that's remains of the time when I was alone, but not lonely.
Thanks, old Bioware. You made me feel like I was important to someone. And that someone would take care of me in return. It's a pity that this doesn't happen in real life.
I feel you, whoever you are. I feel you.
Fucking Mass Effect. I really love a ton of video games in which i got emotional involved in. But fuckn mass effect gets me every time. It only needs a song or a scene or just a quote to bring me back into this fantastic universe. It feels like for one short moment, the world disappears, and theres just the Galaxy Map and the millions of storys. memories and feelings laying there. Fuck the end, mass effect was maybe on of the best things i ever was able to be a part of. I hope there will be the day, where people start to begin that video games are art, and that mass effect beats the shit out, of 99% of every actuall hollywood movie. Thanks Bioware.
Lol, wtf brain
I wouldn't have missed any of it for the world. It's been a damn good ride.
The best.
***** Damn right the best ride
Been? We're only getting started.
let's show the reapers what we could do
Killed you on Virmire.
We will never forget you, normandy crew
Seth ノートン agreed, what a complete dick
I've always played a Fem Shep, I think I was more drawn to her voice than anything. I've honestly never been so attached and emotionally invested to a game trilogy in my life. Forever going to be in my top 5 games... got to have room for future games to have a chance.
FemShep is an awesome playthrough. Especially when I have her romance Garrus.
Nha, John Shep is bether
the voice actress stole the show.....what a legend
This song assassinated my heart. In this moment you remember every single detail of every person you've come to meet and you can feel the end coming, it hits hard man /:
we know that feel/s
I know. The Citadel DLC made it hurt more and less at the same time.
Yup. Bought the remaster last May and it made me even more emotional than the first time.
"I am glad you were able to take time to celebrate. You deserve it."
"I wish you could have been here with me."
"I am always with you, Siha. I would not trade the time I had with you for anything. It was a good fight."
"...A great fight."
"Then go and finish it. And when you go to the sea, I will be waiting for you at the shore."
Mass effect a series i will not forget. this song remind me of how heartbroken i was at that moment. just standing there looking into the space. thinking that my favorite character shepard's last chapter was here.
just the thought of never hearing Garrus bragging about his sniper skills again :(
Never getting to see Tali's people rebuild their homeworld
Never getting see EDI learn how to be human
Never again hearing about Liara's Shadow Broker adventures
Never seeing a future for the Krogan's
Never getting to see your love interest again, your friends, hell even your enemies and rivals
A strange feeling, knowing you approach the end. The Citadel DLC grants you that brief repute, a chance to reflect, to kick back and just enjoy this crazy thing called life that you spent 3 games fighting for. It gives you that Eye of the Storm clarity of facing the end. And it works so well because we the player (assuming they saw the ending before this DLC) we know whats coming. Most of the fans hated the endings and they feel angry and betrayed that after such a fun time, they have to face that. Others are just melancholy at knowing many will die. Yet we all have one feeling in common as our Sheppard's watch their crew board the Normandy. We feel happy, be it happy with the experience of the DLC, a particular game, or even the whole trilogy from the first time you set foot on the Citadel to charging that beam for one last push. As a fan, love or hate ME3, we all enjoyed the ride at least ;)
nintendomaster9793 The whole reason behind Shepard breathing in the pile of rubble in the "Destroy" ending even stated by BioWare was to be able to imagine your own ending past that point. You can already assume that Shepard in that ending if he survived was to eventually end up surprising everybody and reuniting with his love interest and retiring along with the rest of the crew.
Ace Tsuyoshi Tiros From what i have heard. even by angry joe and i think even bioware stated it. is that the indoctrination theory deosn't work because of their new ending that made a bigger baground to the crucibel and gave shepard a chance to fight on (but he would die)
Christian Loizzi I would have liked to see my Shepard reunite with Tali (and the rest of the crew) and live on Rannoch, but hell, that's what does happen with my Shepard, it's been a good ride (I choose destroy, I was sick of the Reapers shit)
Middlefingestudios1 id wish to see a scene with Miranda looking up at the stars after the destroy ending and a slightly still injured Shepard puts his hand on her shoulder and turns her around with the words "I found you"
"That doesn't sound like my girl. You'll find a way to win. And when this is over, I'll be waiting for you."
Enn C And I nearly succeeded at not crying at this song... *sniiiiiiiifffffff*
i almost cry in this moment because it felt like you was right with Shepard and it was like he was saying goodbye it was really sad
Honestly; I came close to crying [SPOILERS] when Thane died, when Legion died, and when Mordin died, but quite simply, I didn't cry. Nearly did, but didn't. This scene? This made me cry. Only scene in any game that has genuinely made tears flow, and I'm not ashamed to admit that. I romanced Garrus, and as he talks in this scene, you can see him welling up. That, even more than Legion's sacrifice, broke my heart.
The the thing Mass Effect has taught me.
Even Hero's have the right to bleed.
Im Habs I thought Five For Fighting taught us that? xD
Not gonna lie............. I cried first time I played this DLC.
littletubs same here bro...
littletubs the best moment of mass effect 3... was in one of it's dlc's, strange. The best way to end the series regardless
+littletubs Me too.. such an emotional trilogy! Haven't played anything like it since....
+Thane Krios I like this game and life is strange, both have a great story, but I like mass effect more, because of this DLC and more emotional storyline.
Red Sniper It seems both Mass Effect and Life is Strange struggled at ending their games properly though
I'm definitely having this played at my funeral.
Amen to that x2!
Amen to that x3.
That is an idea i like. A song from my favourite Videogame and its most sad moment. This song tells us to be sad but live on and enjoy their peace
Amen to that x4 and infinite
^^This person is genius!
The tracks with piano like this in ME3 are just so well done. So much feels it's unreal.
Let them go, guys... Let Shep and the rest of the team go... they did their part, let them rest now, in Peace.
My heart... It hurts.
Mee too :(
I'm with you there guys...
Uh oh. Are you getting dreams? Hearing voices?
Indoctrinated. We gotta put em down, they're the reaper's agents now...
This song couldn't be more perfectly named, When I heard this the first time and I heard "it was a good ride" and had my BroShep whisper "The Best".
I lost it, It was the Inevitable End of Shepherd, Liara, Garrus, etcetera.
However even as their faces fade from our memories we might tell our kids the story of "The Shepherd" who united a galaxy.

"And when you go to the sea... I'll be waiting for you at the shore"
"James told me there's an old saying on Earth: May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead. Not sure if turian heaven is the same as yours, but if this thing goes sideways and we both end up there... meet me at the bar... I'm buying."
@@LoWoodhenry "Goodbye Garrus !"
This long after ME3, I still find myself listening to these tracks now and then. By far one of the most memorable game series of my life.
I couldn't ask for a better crew to explore the galaxy with. Here's to us, Normandy!
It's been a great ride.
The best.
I played the games backwards initially. I got 3 first, and thought it was incredible. Then I played 2 and thought it was amazing. Then I got 1 and had my first play through that went across all 3 games. That's when I realized that games can be as emotional than real life, as I teared up over a bunch of pixels on my screen holding a moment of silence for the end of Shepard. It was probably the best ride of my life.
There was never a better crew. I miss you all.
When Shepard said "The best" and then gone, it shows having fun is just a temporary thing and then we are back to harsh reality, Reapers destroying planets, making life and death decisions etc. This applies to real life too, we often take vacations and forgets all sorts of problems that would keep us awake at night and after having fun we go back to normal routine and make us feel depressed. I just love Mass Effect so much
This game was what helped me through my hardest time and it felt like those characters were like my friends but in a game i will miss you guys
This song makes me remember. All those long nights in my basement with my xbox. I'll miss you guys.
And anyone who's a friend to the Mass Effect Trilogy is a friend of mine.
When Shepard said "The best" I cried like a little girl!! It was perfect
How to stop crying during the passage of Mass Effect 3??? So many years have passed and I cry all the time when I play this game..
This game has changed me as a person so much. It feels like I have a connection with each character. I can't stop thinking about it every day. Truly a blessing to have experienced this story (kinda had to use my imagination for a legit ending). When I die I want to reborn as Commander Shepard, fall in love, and save the galaxy
Best times of my life were spent on that ship. Been a damn good ride
All the mass effect games will hold a special place in my heart .....they are just so fun,dramatic it gets you to like characters you thought you would hate and you get so attached to these characters when you see them get killed it hurts you in a way
"Does this unit have a soul?"
Hulick uses minor keys in a really poignant, beautiful way that will never fail to make me cry.
I remember when mass effect first hit the shelves....my first time playing. It drew me in...It was beautifully written and was the first game I ever cried to...Mass effect 2 and mass effect 3 followed and i played them all with the DLC and it was just...emotional...well written...full of characters I loved and hated to see die...the normandy was fun and it but when it came to the missions and the side quests it was everything you wanted from an RPG... It was and will always remain in my heart...I was commander shepherd and I died commander shepherd...one hell of a ride.... :')
For the first time, I feel like Mass Effect has truly and properly ended. Thanks for making this Bioware, and thanks to whoever uploaded this song, I can't stop listening to my final new moment with the Normandy crew.
Truly it was the best of rides, Commander.
The most touching dlc for a Mass Effect fan.
You could tell that this scene wasn't just the characters saying goodbye to each other for the last time, but it was also BioWare telling us the fans that they're going to miss this world and these characters just as much as we will.
If ther is one game franchise which almost changed my life, it is Mass Effect! NEVER have I felt as atached to a game's characters like i did with these games. Since I knew this was the last we would ever see of Shepard and his friends, I was really sad hearing this, knowing this was the utimate goodbye to the incredible series. For me, the title "Farewell and into the inevitable" seems to be the most fitting title for such an emotional piece of music.
I listened to this many times and every time I start to feel empty this game just broke my heart I will never forget you Garrus, Tali, Liara, Rex, Thane, Miranda, Mordin, Samara, Jack, Grunt, Ashley, Kayden, Jacob , James, Joker, EDI. This game series will always be in my heart
this song is incredible for it depicts so perfectly the situation ... The first notes are sad, dramatic but sudddenly ... well, hope appears at 0:37, the song remains sad but you feel that victory is possible .
This is my favourite soundtrack because it perfectly fits with Shepard's thoughts.
Guys... *sniff* can I cry now?
Yeah, now bring it in man. *hugs*
*Pat's on back* it's ok your safe amongst your people...
I stand beside you.
I am crying too. :'(
It's been a good ride...
(Cries forever)
Dredgen Shade crying for eternity
I downloaded the Happy Ending Mod and far as I'm concerned, my Shepherd's relaxing somewhere in the Cosmos with Liara, a few blue children and of course the occasional reunion party with everyone from the Normandy.
Words can't express how perfect this trilogy was. As silly as it sounds when talking about a video game, this is an experience that will stick with you, forever. Escapism at its finest. My only regret is not being able to play the series again for the first time.
DRG124 I know I'm late to the punch, but I did the same thing. I like to think my Shepard is living on Rannoch with Tali, watching the sunrise with her every morning.
I’m even later to the party, but the surprise cliffhanger best destroy ending is shit. Cliffhangers work for a continued suspense in anticipation for a next installment. It does NOT do well as the final second of a game people poured heart and soul into.
I'm hella late to the party, but I downloaded Less Is More Ending and the Citadel Ending Mod. It ends with Shepard being found, then the Citadel DLC starts after the credits. So this part is the very end of the game.
I'll never be able to find a game that captivates me as much as the Mass Effect trilogy. Truly amazing.
For those saying, "I wish I could play it again for the first time": you can. Stop playing. I played the trilogy for the first time back in 2015, then didn't touch it again until last month. It'd been so long, I'd forgotten 75% of plot points and events. It felt very fresh, despite having seen most of it before. So, want to do it again? Stop playing, put it away. Then come back much later.
The 25% you remember are the bits you'd want to experience for the first time again. You're not providing a soloution your not understanding the problem.
The only story I know that's made me cry. I hate admitting to crying, but Mass Effect is just, it's so great. Shepard and his team are so believable. Unlike a lot of games, you feel like you're there, experiencing everything with all of them. You start with the first game, you grow attachments to all of them over the course of the first and second, and then you get hit by the emotional rollercoaster that is the third. You miss them when it's all over. It truly is something unique.
It was really the best ride in my life..
Farewell Mass Effect.
I just feel respect for the team who worked their asses every day having a publisher like that and in the end, managed to still deliver some of the best moments of the triology, a great multiplayer and one of the best downloadable content I've ever played. Many things were wrong in this game, many things could have been improved, yes, the absence of people like Jack Wall, Drew Karpyshyn, Armando Troisi and others was really felt, and having only two years to develop the largest game in the franchise was ridiculously difficult.
But knowing the living hell the developement of this game was, they did a beautiful, and overall epic experience, one I will never forget...
Can't even make it 10 seconds into this song without choking up. I cannot wait for the next series that has as much of an emotional impact as Mass Effect did on me.
Mass effect is one of only veeerrrrryyy few games that truly changed/helped me as a person. It’s the best experience I ever had in gaming. And if I could somehow play it again “for the first time” I would
Mass Effect will live on. Always
Live your life to the fullest so that when death approaches you do not beg for more time. Approach death with a full heart and a smile on your face knowing you did what you could with the time that you had.
Video games are more of a movie now, an interactive movie
an absolutely amazing interactive movie you mean
sleepingArisu In the case of Mass Effect, anyway.
Mass Effect really does capture my heart and make me question what's out there beyond those stars. What humanity could find and accomplish, whether it would be that we find peace, war, immortality, etc. If we could have such deep friendships with other species like what Commander Shepard had. People see games as fictional rubbish which exploits children etc...
Me? I see it as a window into people's imaginations on what they think could happen in the future, or what the past was like, or maybe something more. We'll never truly know. . .
Thanks. Many of us think the same as you :)
Blaze Rivialle Wish I could like your comment a 1000 times over.
Exactly my thoughts. Thank you, thank you so much!!!!
So much more. When we reach into the deep within our soul, we may find the greatness we all seek. Our imagination is the key. Where the key is found, is up to us. The stories we read, create, see, hear, and so much more. The games we play.
The infinity of the universe lies within our minds. Its beauty in our hearts.
I don’t remember it exact, but when Garrus tells Shepard he’ll meet him in that bar in the sky I cried, and hard too. Screw anyone who didn’t at least get hit with that scene, what a legend
goodbye Shepard ***crying***
That's the hardest bit. After over 100 hours of my own crafted, customized and comfortable Shepard, I had to put him away eventually. ME series will always hold a strong place in my heart and it's why I've kept my 360, with a harddrive with all the DLC for all 3 games on it, should I ever want to go through the whole thing for what would soon be the 4th time heh.
i will always remember the mass effect series as being one of the most emotional i have ever played... The choices, the consequences of those choices good or bad, the crew and most of all the soundtrack. A fitting end for commander Shepard i felt when i finished this game. Thank you Bioware, It's been a damn good ride.
Mass Effect will always have a special place in my heart. It doesn't seem to matter how many times i play through, i laugh at the jokes, smile at the happy moments and cry. Oh boy there are a few times that earn the tears. This song, this scene is easily in the top two. You just feel everything leading to this point, the characters you've come to know so well, every fight, every choice and it is all about to end. Even though my head cannon is that Shepard survives and retires with Kaiden to some small colony this song still makes me cry, My hat is forever off to the composer and devs for bringing this to life.
Anybody else notice how the song sounds like a more hopeful rendition of "An End Once And For All"?
The best six years of our lives. :,) Truly we had a good ride with this game.
The music in this game have always given me lots of emotions, Mass Effect is truly one of the greatest experiences i've ever been apart of in gaming.
Every time I listening this music, I remember our final party with school friends before graduation. We met last time our big company and than most of immigrated or just start a new life. It’s was on of the best moments in my life and I will be always miss for our meetings in my flat…
When i completed the Mass Effect saga, when Shepard sacrifice himself/herself to save the galaxy, i cried for days listening this music and the song "an end once and for all", in my opinion it's the saddest game I've played until now, and the best and epic one.
This, and End of an Era are some of the best songs in the entire series.
"Goodbye Shepard. Thank you..."
I was lucky enough to play the same save file through all the games Mass Effect 1 to Mass Effect 3......Paragon and Renegade playthrough. I got to experience the game with the first ending and the Update ending. Hands down.....Best adventure I ever had on a console.....or ever will have.Thank you for sharing this Masterpiece with the World.
If I could pay money to play this trilogy over again like I first did, finding everything new, I would pay every single buck I have.
Right you are, sir.
That comment aged like fine wine!
I feel some tingling in my heart on this theme, as I remember mass effect... Thank god I still have copies of all three. Gonna treasure them for my grandkids.
Such an amazing trilogy, a single track from it is enough to want to make me cry,
there was only a single thing from Andromeda that made me like that, that one audio log:
"On behalf of the crew of the Normandy SR-2 this is doctor Liara T'soni signing off"
That one got me.
Sad fact: Shepard's line "... the best" is Mark Meer's final recording for Commander Shepard, ever.
No other fictional character has brought me to so many tears.
I'm really going to miss you, Shep.
god damn. I don't want Shepard's story to be over with so many unanswered questions. so many things left to do. But just like they said. Its been one hell of a ride and i was so happy to be a part of it until the end. RIP Shepard. you will live on forever in the hearts and minds of so many gamers around the world.
Some if the best music ever. Timeless, emotional, haunting and beautiful
Those series are something more than just the games. Mass Effect has created with players so emotional relationship, that some of them can't get up after playing. Liara, Thane, Garrus and every other squad member... I think the main battle wasn't really about the Reapers, but the small clearing of each heart. It like EDI - we love those characters, and I don't give a damn they are unreal! They all taught me so much... Thank you.
It was a great ride. They were like friends. Seeing it all end.. the final DLC - it broke my heart. I never imagined a video game would get to me so much.
this triology is a masterpiece. I love the story,the characters,the music.I love it all.this game made me cry when it ended.great job bioware
dont know how ME4 is gonna be without those awesome mates.
If it takes place after ME3, then it'll probably provide us with some worthy cameos or references.
Also, Liara is an Asari. Asari can become a 1000 years old.
***** i doubt it's gonna be after ME3 look at how different the world is based on the ending you chose
kucharz508 I think they will chose only 1 ME3 ending for ME4. Destroy probably, because other 2 is too "ideal", and Refuse means that our cycle is ended. Also Destroy is only ending with Shepard's survive probability. Hint maybe?
mihan2d
It's highly unlikely to be a sequel... Especially since they've stated it will most likely have NOTHING to do with anything Shepard. Not him, his friends, his actions, or even the world he did it in... So yeah...
See it as freestanding restart of the franchise...
Like Deus Ex:Revolution was to Deus Ex... Set before Deus Ex and more or less having nothing to do with anything that happened in previous games.
But keeping the world and feel of the universe...
Making a prequel or even a universe reboot is MUCH easier than a sequel (And since they've repeatedly stated Shepard's story ends in ME3 no matter what) because you never have to chose a canon choice, giving you MUCH more freedom.
Zathaghil Hmm... I don't agree, How does playing through a story where the ending is already detemined, give you any more freedom? Lets say... The Rachni wars. No matter what choices are made, they wouldn't matter since the outcome has already been written. Even if they go way back and write a story about a previous cycle, everyone would still die in the end. Its like reading the last chapter of a book. What is the point of reading the rest of it, if you already know what will happen in the end?
The GOAT is back. Mass Effect is back!
"I MADE A MISTAKE!"
"Judge us not by our methods but by what we seek to accomplish"
"Go kick some reaper ass"
"Im... proud of you..."
