Mass Effect 3 - Cut Dialogue Between Anderson and Shepard Extended
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- Hey, everyone.
I'm sure that by now everyone has seen the 'cut dialogue' between Anderson and Shepard. After rummaging through the audio files, I thought I could arrange a compilation with a bit better pacing and 'feel' of a final conversation between old friends than what's already out there.
Some people have said that this conversation wasn't cut - that it appears for anyone who did not romance anyone from Mass Effect 1 to 3. I haven't tested it, so I can't say - though I've seen no proof of these claims. For now, I'll file it along with the two dozen ways to resurrect Aeris that I still haven't tried.
That's my FemShep pictured in the video: Earth-born war hero, Rebecca Shepard. Depending on how the "Extended Cut" DLC plays out, this video may end up being considered the end of her story so far as my headcanon is concerned.
I hope you enjoy!
Background is "I'm Proud of You" Extended by / movieandtvthemes .
Shepard: I don't know, not everything I've done is something to be proud of...
Anderson: 'Come here.... I'm proud of you...
THE FEEEELLLLLLSSSSSSSSSSSS I CAN'T AHHHRRRRRRR
They cut THIS scene because of consistency? Lemme get this straight... of all the lore violations, thematic discrepancies and plot holes in the ending they chose to cut one of the most touching and emotional scenes in video game history and leave the fucking ghost child god thingy? It's still great and all the way they left It but this is the way Shepard is meant to go out
Feels out of place.
@@joejosa8467 - Not any less out of place than a giant green space laser that somehow magically imparts synthetic technology into organic matter.
This would have made me happy
Yea but I would like a mass effect 4 with Shepard and his romance, maybe they settled down in the next game and the remaster can have this scene.
@@Kassler6893 yesss that would be perfect.. but it would be cool if they teased ME4 after finishing the remaster of ME3
My mom is Commander Shepard and this is my favorite cut dialogue on the Citadel.
Anderson has always been Shepherd's pillar. He's always had your back, always been at your side and always willing to sacrifice everything for you. I found it interesting how Shepherd meets their mother but never their father. The writers knew Anderson is the perfect father figure and didn't want to take away from that.
"I'm proud of you."
This is my most treasured scene in Mass Effect 3
I cried every time I saw this
I don't always cry like a bitch, but when I do, its when he says: "Come here...I'M proud of you."
Ratgrot
We all did.
They cut a lot of good material without explanation. There's supposedly an entire conversation with Ashley where she asks Shepard about his/her experience after the Collectors destroyed the original Normandy - whether they experienced anything like the afterlife, etc.

@@strider117aldo9 your welcome lol
@@strider117aldo9 it was going to be a question asked by Ashley but they took it out because of religious controversy. I personally think Shepard should just should of said “I don’t remember”
Keith David and Jen Hale’s line delivery in this scene is INCREDIBLE. This is, in my opinion, the most well acted scene in gaming history
Oh Absolutely. There are a lot of memorable moments in Mass Effect but I always thought of this one in particular. It's just so somber yet beautiful. Warriors and leaders exhausted and beaten yet fulfilled their objective after such an arduous fight finally taking a well earned rest while witnessing the view of Earth coupled with the soundtrack. Just so beautiful.
Probably the only knock against it is the quietness between the terrible pained grunts in the beginning of their conversation.
**silence** **oof ow eek** "best seats in the house" **silence**
It's also in the BroShep version, too. So it's not a knock on Hale. Just the scene direction.
"Not everything I've done is something to be proud of."
"I'M proud of you."
Tears in my eyes. Every. Fucking. Time.
I was already crying before but that's where it got me the most.... I want to hear someone say this to me so badly
Her line is even more powerful when your commander is an earthborn + sole survivor. And that they had to do some damn distasteful things to survive.
This being the last thing he says before going quiet hits so fucking hard omg
I like to think my Shep felt whole and consoled when Anderson told her he was proud and she did good. That was the moment she could finally lay down all the pains and grieves she had to endure. From the loss of her family, her unit, the use of her of the whole galaxy to do the impossibles,... She cried truly. She was finally free. Anderson was her father.
i always liked to imagine in all the three different endings Anderson was the one to recruit shepard to the alliance
it’s been 8 years and i’m still mad at bioware for robbing us of this moment. like imagine this scene for colonist shepard or earthborn shepard 😭😭
I can't believe it's been 8 years. Still can't stand the ending, but I wish we'd gotten this.
my colonist shep views (viewed, sadly) him as a father figure definitely
For real. Especially since my headcanon for my Earthborn Shepard is that Anderson was the one who helped get her off the streets and turn her life around. She definitely sees him as the father she never had and having this discussion would've been absolutely perfect.
WHY DID THEY REMOVE THIS!
They only had three colors.
@Lm French no it fucking won't
@Lm French Nope, quit your shit.
@Lm French If it was a complete remake or reimagining of ME3? Yes. Sadly all that it is is a graphical improvement on current gen hardware, which will be backwards compatible with next gen. I don't disagree that they might add SOME things in the remake, but it's skeptical to confirm anything. Bioware's current track record since DA: Inquisition has been pretty rough.
@@mickeyj5922 since inquisition? its been rough since that ending of mass effect 3 and launch of swtor
Yeah, it's pretty hard to understand why it was cut. As far as Anderson already having children, all you have to do is remove the line about him not having a family or children and the conversation still remains largely intact. I think it's just safe to say that the Bioware of the past is gone and we're only likely to see more of the same in the future.
Coming at you live from the post anthem world, this might be understatement of the decade
this comment aged like fine wine
Holy shit, French wine even
This freaking breaks my heart. I would have killed to have this footage in the game. I've played the game, suffered the ending, and this piece still punches me in the gut and makes me want to cry.
If you need me, I'll be sobbing in the corner.
Can I join you in the corner
@@lukeavey9613 Sure thing.
FemShep, MaleShep, either way this scene is one of the saddest...
Anderson, I wish you were my father. Hell, I wish you were real.
NO I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS WITH MY CANON (earthborn, i.e. orphaned) SHEP NONONOOOOOOO
He could have said 'I never had time for my family. Never had time for my children.' instead and everything else would still have made sense when Shepard replies 'There will be time enough for that now.' 8)
I see everyone mentioning the emotional side of this audio file, and it's outstanding at that. However there's one thing that impresses me the most.
The unbelievable talent of both voice actors, making the sounds of somebody grasping for air and trying to speak while also trying not to die, that in conjunction with absorving this scenes and these characters emotionality just blows the fuck out of my mind.
This is acting damn!
I think anyone who would have bitched about the lore discrepancy would have been beaten with an oar by everyone who wanted their shep and anderson to have this moment.
Especially Earthborn Shepards.
I realize this comment is 7 years old, but whats the lore discrepancy?
@@jakeola10 Anderson had kids according to the codex, so the "never been a father" line didn't work.
I was just going through extracted audio and come across this. I was like "Wait.. what? Anderson NEVER said that to me..."
It made me cry listening to this version. I was never disappointed in the endings, but I am in this!
1:28 Translation: "Damn it, child, I want surrogate grandkids."
Like if you think that Jenny Hale should get ome award for this kind of voice acting
My FemShep will never have a life with Garrus...all them Human-Turrian kids running about.
We all about adoption in the shakarian household. We got a turian baby, a human baby, and a baby krogan.
My male shep will never have his Human-Quarian children, in that house on Rannoch.
No don't say that! I am mostly fine with the endings but that is what pissed me off the most. (good destroy ending) she breathes and that's it. No final cutscene with your romance and their family
@@lunawolf3340 It´s confirmed a romanced Garrus finds her in the destroy-ending.
They HAVE TO adopt Grunt
He's technically a child and Shep sure loves him a lot.
Dudes real talk? I would have cried I almkst did when that scene happened the first time
I agree. It seems bioware several places if rumors are to be belived totally miss whats attractive about their games. Emotional response and immersion.... When thats what brings most ppl to your games, your game wont suffer for a little bit more conversation!
ik im like 7 years late to this lol but imo ME3 was fucked over by EA. just look at the citadel dlc. That's the sort of content bioware really wanted to put out. a real shame tbh.
The emotions here. It almost feels like real loss. Coming from someone who's lost people.
"Think how proud your kids would be."
*Flashback Through the Choices My Shepard made Up to this point*
*Saving Wrex*
*Saving the Council*
*Destroying the Human Reaper*
*Curing the Genophage*
*Protecting the Salarian Councilor (Again)*
*Forging a Peace between the Quarian and Geth*
*Avenging Thane*
*Saving Grissom Academy*
*Uniting the Galaxy*
Me: "Proud, I'm more worried their gonna be trying to outdo me."
With the legandary edition out I finally returned to this game after 7 years. Replayed my original build with femshep, colonist/sole survivor, infiltrator, Garrusmancer. Now here I am binging on ME content once again. Gotta say this scene feels way more powerful with the colonist or earth born background. With no parents to guide her, Anderson seemed like the father figure femshep never had, and that line delivery here, " Come here, I'm proud of you, you did good child". He truly was a father figure, and I love keith David's voice acting. Amazing actor.
i agree. i don't know how you can help but cry when he says 'come here. i'm proud of you. you did good, child. you did good.' so saad... 8*( the only part that was more emotionally heavy for me was when thane died.
Years later and this still makes me bawl my eyes out
Why am I only just hearing this now...
Why am I in tears...
I can't believe this wasn't in my cut, this is fucking beautiful. :(
God damn it this scene was really important for Lamarcus Shepard. He never had a family or any strong black role models Until Anderson
I csn never hold back my tears when i watch this
I just burst into tears.
Thank you! That's why I created this video, to try and add more emotion to the conversation.
Now to try and figure out if I want to make another video concerning the Extended Cut...
Made me tear up the first time I played with a mod that enabled it. My Shepard grew up on Earth as a orphan and to have have Anderson tell her "You did good, child. You did good. I'm proud of you." who feels like a father she never had almost made me cry.
I know I’m a good 5-6-7 years late for this But only last week I completed the trilogy and I cried like a little fucking kid Through out the final 30-60 minutes of the game. From the speech you give to your team to the run for the beam to the chat with Anderson to the final decision and aftermath. And I say this now IF THEY HAD THIS IN THE ACTUAL GAME I DONT THINK I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO COMPLETE THE GAME🥺🥺🥺
Hopefully this is one of the deleted dialogues they are gonna add in the remastered version
That last line hit like a punch to the gut
8 years later this comes into my recommended. Brb, someone's cutting onions. . . .
I'm not crying I'm not crying 😭
Bioware: *removes this scene*
Me: Why would you do such a thing?!
EA rushed them so they couldn't make the scene itself, just the dialogue
Damn, these writers were on fire in this series. This and Mordin get me everytime.
These scenes from the game always make me tear up. Never teared up n ME1 when one was sacrificed but in ME3, when Mordin fixed the Shroud... damn
I think that's also the tone they set, here and with Mordin and Grunt (before you see its a fakeout) its more of sacrifice or final goodbye, with Virmire it was a balls to the walls, no time to think decision making where you're left reeling after the fact. Plus as much as I love Kaiden and enjoy Ash, ME1 isn't their best showing of personality. Even the music, "Proud of You" and "The Cure" are triumphant/tragic and packed with emotion, Virmires mission soundtrack is more tense and action packed.
Ngl I wish he said I love you Shepard, you were the closest thing I ever had to a child of my own 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I thought he had a divorced wife and child. Said so in Intel in LoSB
Anderson had a daughter, Jane Shephard. He found her on Mindoir, and took her under his wing.
I also like the idea that Shepherd was living on the streets of earth and tried to pick Anderson's pocket and he caught her and gave her a chance to join the Alliance. She took the chance and he looked after her.
Q_Q I have to admit these are one of those gut wrenching, and tear making moments. RIP Anderson.
mass effect series has caused me to have more emotional responses than any other game i've ever played. :*(
At the very least the fans manage to bring it back with the extended Anderson dialogue mod
this should have been the ending. Then showing like years later commander shephard retiring from the alliance or achieving the rank of admiral then showing a last scene with her or his love interest having a family enjoying themselfs their new found freedom and maybe even having kids naming one Anderson and the other younger called jessica o Vera (something like jane and john being Jessica counterpart jessy and Verd o even thane would have been wholesome) shepard :'3 it's the only thing i asked for.
If Bioware would release this as a dlc i would buy it.
Damn you, EA!
If the remaster happens I would be very happy if they included this
I think there is a mod for this at least
They should have kept this in the game and followed up on Shepard and Liara's little blue children. Its a road not taken.
Girls: omg he didn't cry at titanic does he even have a soul
Boys when Anderson fucking dies
This is beautiful material. Why the hell did they cut it?
i almost cried bro wtf
edit : i cried after the mother part
Damn you ninjas cutting onions. This is so heartwarming, haven't cried this much since Leandra's death (Dragon Age 2) :'(
Crying forever.
i wish they would of left this in for the legendary edition
They probably cut this when they remembered that Anderson has two sons - Henry and Jason.
Although the only place I could find them mentioned was in one of the shadow broker's files about Anderson. Maybe they came up in a book too, I don't know.
"Anderson?"
"Shepard...tell my wife..........I'm an orangutan"
"...:
NO ONE could have played Anderson better than Keith David PERIOD.
This dialogue isnt cut.. I remember playing the Original ME3 and i had this dialogue on my first run.
it is cut, you had a mod or are mis remembering
@@carlpvnsem2875 no its not.
"Come here... I'M PROUD OF YOU." Jesus....
I did cry but when the flash backs came in at the destroy ending, I was losing it
My personal head canon is that Anderson was part of the ground team that went to mindoir after it was attacked and found Shepard as a child then took her under his wing
It was cut for continuity. Anderson does have a son with his ex wife. Guess they only caught it in QA. Shame really, its a great scene.
After so long I finally understood where manslayer got this from.
I would've had a heart attack if I saw this, the good kind, not the bad kind.
"....I'M proud of you"
:'(
because although I enjoyed what they talked about in the extended dialog, for me it took away Anderson's feeling of being a Father Figure, when he talked about never having children. My feeling was that Anderson had a family in the Normandy and its crew. Actually more than family, if you understand the bonds between soldiers coming home from war.
The shorter version felt more focused to me.
I felt the shorter version had the father saying what needed to be said, before he passed away.
I reckon, I don't blame BioWare myself, BioWare has never made a bad game up until this point (not including Dragon Age 2) I blame every flaw in this ending on EA. If you managed to get the Dioluage from inside the game, then BioWare probably had something amazing planned but EA wanted to turn it in to a DLC money making scheme that back fried so hard in their face. I mean Day 1 DLC?? Only EA would do that
7 years late, but day 1 DLC? Which one and which greedy idiot didn't think it would be suspicious as hell?
i don't know why everyone hates da2 so much, its true it has a lot of flaws but it has so much to offer ,and it also has one of the best da protagonists hawke. I wish more people would give it a chance.
God, I love this dialogue. Still have no idea why they cut it. I kind of like to think that Anderson was kind of a father figure to Shepard, particularly for Earthborn or Colonist backgrounds. It just gives their relationship and this final moment a lot more depth in my opinion. I was pretty young when I played the game for the first time, so I didn’t really hold any kind of feelings for the characters that I do now. The Mass Effect Trilogy will always be some of my favorite games of all time. Always.
This scene... My heart 💔
Fucking hell, here comes the tears.
i still remember the cut for illusive man killing him self
April 2024, still here and I still wished theyd have not cut this and we'd got a better ending that what we did. Also with the legendary edition I can't believe they didnt include FemShep/jack & FemShep/Miranda romances. I've seen them but i cant play them because I play on consoles 😢
I just finished mass effect triolgy again. Just did a marathon of it, might be the only series I have done a marathon of let alone twice, and i vasly prefer mass effect 3 with mods and the extended scene of this makes it far more emotional or a least little more emotinal then without. Teary at this scene , when I finished me3 now for the fourth time.
Hopefully, this will be included in Legendary edition.
Jesus, I forgot all about Revelations, I'd say you're on the ball there mate
I cried. So good and so sad(.
This... I would have loved this in the game!!!
thought you were going in a whole other direction for a second there
They definitely should've kept this dialogue
This is so beautiful
Wow they cut this why? Watching this was pretty emotional.
There is mod for that cut dialogue if anyone wondered.
you know that would be kinda weird for the kids if shepard got any. i mean its possible after the destroy ending but imagine that one of your parents saved the entire galaxy. instant fame.
Go in peace, Aileen Kairos Shepard.
if only the view wasn’t in 140p
The only reason I can think of for them not putting this in the game is because they ran out of room.
im crying 🥹
Why can't the heroes of the story get their happy ending?
I NEED MY MALE SHEP WITH TALI AND MY FEM SHEP WITH THEIR LOVER AND ALIVE!
Man tears flowing
well if the ending didnt get leaked we wouldnt be in this problem
All the tears...
I cry at this part
Is there any chance that you could also do the same thing for the male Shepard cut dialogue. I'd like that one just as much if I had this pace and score with it. Just thought I'd ask.
