[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> THREE
[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> it's all EA's fault
[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> the ending was perfect
[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> until i found out that i didn't get the perfect ending
[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> becuase i didn't play online
[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> because i didnt pay for their shitty online pass
[20:50] <@FrothyOmen> for their shitty online game
[20:51] <@FrothyOmen> Thank god for youtube so I can at least see the "true secret ending" for ME3

[20:52] <@FrothyOmen> this is fucking bullshit
[20:52] <@FrothyOmen> i feel raped
[20:52] <@FrothyOmen> 6 years of buildup to the finale
[20:52] <@FrothyOmen> shit upon
[20:52] <@FrothyOmen> becuase EA is greedy
[20:53] <+Tolkeen> yup
[20:56] <@FrothyOmen> You needed 5,000 "war assets" in order to be able to get the perfect ending
[20:56] <&CrimsonBelgium> lol
[20:56] <&CrimsonBelgium> frothy didn't EA update the game with a new ending
[20:56] <@FrothyOmen> I had 6,000 and was like "sweet, i've checked all the loot guides, i have found literally everything I could given my choices in the past games"
[20:56] <@FrothyOmen> but my "galaxy readiness rating" was 50%
[20:57] <@FrothyOmen> meaning I only got 3,000 of those points for the final battle
[20:57] <@FrothyOmen> whenever I tried to bring that up it just told me "system unavailable" so I figured "oh, i have to get near the end of the game before that opens up. cool"
[20:57] <@FrothyOmen> so I get near the end
[20:57] <@FrothyOmen> and it's like LAWL 5 MISSIONS IN A ROW NO BREAKS INBETWEEN
[20:57] <@FrothyOmen> CANT UPGRADE UR SHIT CANT SPEND UR MONEY
[20:57] <@FrothyOmen> CANT FIX UR GALAXY READINESS RATING OLOLOOLOLOL
[20:58] <@FrothyOmen> turns out i have to play online and achieve a very high rank to make my galaxy readiness rating better
[20:58] <@FrothyOmen> makes no fucking sense whatsoever
[20:58] <@FrothyOmen> but I guess EA figured people would do exactly what I Just did, get mad, then buy an online pass and play online just to get that better rating then play through the game a second time so they can get the better ending
[20:59] <@FrothyOmen> CrimsonBelgium They added an extension to the ending
[20:59] <@FrothyOmen> Never changed it, just showed more "things" in the attempt to make you feel like your rape was by a smooth 12" dildo instead of a spiked one
[20:59] <&CrimsonBelgium> ahh ok
[20:59] <&CrimsonBelgium> roflmao
[20:59] <&CrimsonBelgium> that's a hell of a description
[21:00] <@FrothyOmen> yeah i feel like bioware and EA = kano
[21:00] <@FrothyOmen> raped me
[21:00] <@FrothyOmen> then told me "no charge" and spit in my face
[21:00] <&CrimsonBelgium> roflllllmao
[21:01] <@FrothyOmen> The ending wasn't even bad
[21:01] <@FrothyOmen> It made sense and was perfectly acceptable
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> ah ok
[21:01] <@FrothyOmen> but it's the fact that mine wasn't "perfect" that irritates me
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> people were *pissed* off
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> LOL
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> so what do you have to do
[21:01] <@FrothyOmen> I did fucking everything
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> to reach the perfect one
[21:01] <@FrothyOmen> play online
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> loool
[21:01] <&CrimsonBelgium> are you serious
[21:01] <@FrothyOmen> which requires me to spend $9.99 on an online pass
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> yes did you even read my rant
[21:02] <&CrimsonBelgium> lol met me go back
[21:02] <&CrimsonBelgium> I just saw the part about readiness rating
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> fucking
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> there isn't even enough experience points in the game
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> like
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> I got to level 55
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> the max is 60
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> i did E-VE-RY-THING
[21:02] <@FrothyOmen> they pulled the same shit with mass effect 2
[21:02] <&CrimsonBelgium> rofl
[21:03] <@FrothyOmen> you were able to get 90% of the way through level 29/30
[21:03] <&CrimsonBelgium> frothyomen about to become an online superdemon
[21:03] <@FrothyOmen> but the only way to level all the way up
[21:03] <@FrothyOmen> is to buy all the DLCs
[21:03] <&CrimsonBelgium> you are going to be the angriest online player of all time
[21:03] <&CrimsonBelgium> lol
[21:03] <@FrothyOmen> thats where the last of the XP is at
[21:03] <@FrothyOmen> fuck you
[21:03] <@FrothyOmen> i hate everyone

The thing I thought was retarded about the ending was all the choices I made in part 1 and part 2 were pretty irrelevant to the ending. You basically get option A, B, C and with max assets you get a little extra, woopdi friggin doo. The game itself I enjoyed, So for me part 1-3 was like 120 hours of goodness and 15 minutes of headshaking and disappointment.

I never got around to downloading the new ending. I still feel too betrayed to give that game another glance.
 
They basically halved the required rating a while ago, and you can reach max level in one run with an imported character of max level in the previous game.
That, or just do a NG+.

BTW, the endings(Besides refusal) were terrible. <.<

It's an "RPG" ... or so they would have you think. Your choices are supposed to matter... but, in the end, they make no difference at all. After ME1 I was extremely excited for the series, but I ended up being very disappointed in the series.

And this is why Isaac Clarke is the only gun-toting spaceman for me.

Indeed, Dead Space is amazing, however ... it's a different genre entirely and so forced endings and linear-ness are to be expected when being a TPS Survival horror game. In a western rpg... they aren't supposed to be that way.

Oh, I know...for all the mess you have to go through for a game of ME3's size, that's pretty shitty.

And I understand Frothy's pain. Brother Box did the same damn thing. Complete with indescribable rage.

what do you expect from a game company that releases the same football game every year?
