Dragon Age 2 was a very good game nonetheless, really enjoyed the fast paced combat and narrative, though I did not like the repetitive environments. Still a better ending than Mass Effect 3 though, because it actually made perfect sense, although ultimately we got forced into a choice because of one idiot mage with manure and drakestone. doh.gif

Better than Witcher2 lor sweat.gif why i always need to kneel before the god of potions rclxub.gif

DA2's ending is 100% worse than ME3, you just have a dwarf guy saying vaguely that the party split and disappeared. You can't even save your mother no matter what you do. Whether you support mages or knights, the outcome is the same.

No lah, ME3 ending was wayyy worse. The whole ending scene was forcefed to us, just a 5 minute cutscene and 3 choices at the end. Worst of all, we have no idea why we have to make the choice. The purpose of the reapers is an unjustifiable paradox. The reapers say synthetics are evil and will always turn on their creators, yet we managed to get the geth on our side to battle the reapers. Peace between organics and synthetics is attainable, but for some reason, we couldn't bring it up as an argument when we engage in a conversation with catalyst.

DA2's ending on the other hand was well articulated, we know why we had to choose between the mages and templars. And it foreshadowed the setting for Dragon Age 3. drool.gif

Think about it this way.

Let's say ME3 ending scene was just Garrus sitting on a chair in dark background explaining that every Normandy member split off and disappeared.

So this is basically why people hate Bioware?

Hmm... and I thought Todd Howard was the greatest liar in the gaming industry..

Beginning, yes. Middle, yes. End.... not so much.

QUOTE
“[The presence of the Rachni] has huge consequences in Mass Effect 3. Even just in the final battle with the Reapers.”

Rachni only helped to build the Crucible. They never made an appearance in the final battle.

QUOTE
“I’m always leery of saying there are 'optimal' endings, because I think one of the things we do try to do is make different endings that are optimal for different people “

Lets see, there are 7 different endings, which are just minor variations from the 3 major endings. Oh and different colors too tongue.gif

QUOTE
“And, to be honest, you [the fans] are crafting your Mass Effect story as much as we are anyway.”

Unfortunately, no. Two lanes, but still the same road.

PCGamer: I'm gonna give ME3 the average score of 75
Bioware: *throws money at PCGamer's face*
PCGamer: On second thought, let's give it 93.
