I pre-ordered it, got burned, got mediocre ending changes in response to massive fan protest.
I think I've played through all 3 games twice, but even with the modification the ending is so dissatisfying I have no incentive to try for a 3rd. Multiplayer got boring after about a month.
Would not buy for $12.80. You're better off buying a month's subscription to netflix and watching Battlestar Galactica.

Sorry y'all are disappointed just trying to help.
Nothing personal. We just have low opinions of what you're recommending.

I am sure that is appreciated. But I don't think anyone else finds it a surprise either. Which was more or less my point to begin with. It's like yelling STOP at someone who is standing still. ???
I appreciate the heads up. I thought so, but this reinforces me so that I won't get it now.

Origin is kinda crappy with the download speed but steam doesn't offer this game. I just started play a few hours ago and I am totally impressed. I am glad to see someone else is as well.

As much as I do not like ME3 overall (although I do enjoy most of the MP aspect, not all of it though), and as much as I do not like Origin particularly... I still think that ME3 (MP or not, bad endings or not, DLCs or not) is certainly worth it at such a price.
I have played much, much worse games than ME3, and I have seen much worse endings too (yes, I did, I know it's difficult to believe, but they exist, two of which I still remember clearly are those of the original Borderlands and vanilla Fallout 3's).

I really have no problem with Origin, other than it is inconvenient to have to install another client and remember more user names and passwords.
Mass Effect 3 on the other hand, along with Spore, was the most disappointing game that I have ever played. I paid full price despite the outcry about the ending, because I thought maybe it was not that bad. I was wrong, it was worse than I expected in my worst dreams. I am still kicking myself for paying full price for that game.
Dont mean to offend you, OP. It was nice of you to post the link, but I just get furious every time I even think about that game.

I never finished Fallout 3 because I could not really get into it, but I did finish the original Borderlands and was not nearly as disappointed with the ending as I was with that of ME3. Yes, the ending to Borderlands was kind of anti-climactic, but the game was just a fun, humorous, over the top shooter that I did not take seriously in the first place.
ME3 on the other hand was infinitely more disappointing, because I had played the 2 previous games and really cared about the characters I had developed and the story. In the end, all 3 games were basically a waste of time and money, because you got basically the same ending no matter what choices you had made, and a not very satisfactory ending at that. I was so disappointed that I refuse to play even the free modified endings or any DLC even if they gave it away, and have sworn to never touch anything to do with the ME universe ever again.

I'd also like to point out that quote is from less than 3 months before the game launched. There's also an interview on gameinformer where he promises 16 distinct endings, less than 6 months before the game launched, but I'm too lazy to dig it up.
I invest weeks of free time through 3 games, linking the saves between games, and got led to one of the most disappointing endings in gaming history. The rest of the game rocked up until the last 30 minutes. Think 60+ hours of gameplay can't be ruined by 30 minutes of scripted bullshit? Oh it can. It REALLY can.

They are not shitting all over the OP.
They "shit" all over ME3's ending - with reasons - but that's about it, since that's about what people do when it comes with ME3. I could enumerate many other parts of ME3 that just didn't make sense (lack of details or foreshadowing, or connection with the prior two games) or was very badly presented (such as the intro, or the "let's add an out-of-the-blue ninja wanna be villain guy" pseudo-antagonist experiment) that overall makes it a mediocre title in the trilogy. And especially so by "BioWare's standards", if there's any of that left.
There's still some of ME3 though that I believe was good enough (Quarian/Geth conflict and Genophage arcs conclusions, several character progression stories also coming to a conclusion such as Thane's, Miranda's, Wrex's or EDI's, and a few others). As a side note my previous post (well I) wasn't "defending" nor saying that I somehow thought that ME3's ending wasn't that bad. It IS an abysmal ending (I do refer to it as a singular ending with slight variations that in the end doesn't matter anyway).
I absolutely do detest ME3's "epic conclusion of the trilogy and Shepard's journey" to a gut-wrenching level (still to this day). I'm just saying... there's worst games out there both in terms of game-play (fun, or lack thereof) and story (lack of originality, inspiration, quality, complexity, pace, presentation, continuity, et cetera). And that - overall - I do believe that for merely $13 then buying ME3 isn't a bad deal at all.

Fuck it, I invested too much time into ME1 and 2. I'll just have to hope the new dlc ending isn't that bad and uninstall origin after I'm done.
EDIT: Shit, sale over. Oh well.
