Brad Thinks He Knows the Ending to Mass Effect 3

@mlarrabee: It's still a really great game. The ending isn't horrible it's just...different.

I want to know what's in that letter. I mean, I STILL want to know what was in Dave's GOTY letter from a couple of years back.

I haven't even started ME3.

Still not sure if I want to sour ME 1 & 2.

If Brad wrote this down, I'm gonna die laughing:

Shepard is indoctrinated.

Haha yes, so good. If that's what he wrote, it's canon.

Please, for the love of God, livestream you finishing ME3, Brad.

This must be done

0% chance. I just hope he brings Liara and Javik to Thessia, because the level of condescension in that part is fucking magical.

If he's near the end of the game, has played the dlc, and was ever listening during ME3 discussions on the podcast then he should have a pretty damn good idea what the ending is. Which is why it's going to be hilarious when we find out how wrong he is.

biggest drama in my shallow little life in the past 9 months.

My only hope is that Brad wont be all apologetic about ME3 on the bombcast.

I second that.

I hate the ending of Mass Effect 3 so much. Nine months later and I'm still bummed about that game.

Everyone think about Brad showering and put it in an envelope.

Done.

Soylent Green is Shepard. #spoiled

@SleepingLesson: deus ex machina is rarely a good plot device

He probably wrote a better ending.

I bet its going to be that Shepard dies

I'm guessing he's picked up enough stray talk to know the ending has something to do with a child so I bet he writes something about Shepard impregnating his love interest. Hmmm, but that wouldn't work with gayshep and Brad would probably take that into consideration so maaaaaaaybe not.

Shepard was a reaper all along

Shepard is Keyser Soze. #spoiled

Shepard is indoctrinated.

This is amazing! Since the ending(s) of Mass Effect 3 really don't have anything to do with the story before it/them, I'm betting Brad is way off base. Can't wait to see his reaction!

The issue with this setup is that the problem people have with the ending is so non-specific from a plot standpoint. There's no way he could guess "the thing" that had people so up in arms because of the nature of the ending.

I am also on board with this! Please!

I bet it's just something like "The little kid is behind it all"

i totally think brad didnt call it though, he would seem to be like the rest of these staff and accept the ending

Man I've got know what Brad wrote. There's no way it could even be close, right? RIGHT?! I don't remember anything even remotely foreshadowing the actual ending. I don't even think I saw anything during the game that foreshadowed ANY ending because I know I reached the ending without any clue or theory.

I'm just now playing it for the first time, too. Picked up the Wii U version. I'm only like 6 hours in, though, so I might not be ready by the time Brad finishes the game.

my big issue with the ending is that you HAD to play the multiplayer (which in a mass effect is something i don't want to do) to get your galactic readiness up enough to get the ending where shepherd lives. i did EVERYTHING in that game and my readiness still wasn't high enough because i never played the multiplayer. that was my issue, i spent hundreds of hours with that shepherd and i wanted her to live so she could continue to kick ass.

Shepard was a ghost the whole time. #spoiled

It's the same thing that Dave wrote in the GOTY podcast envelope way back.

so are you saying dave's envelope was the precursor envelope to this envelope?

No, it was the promethean envelope.

@drumpsycho89: I can understand if they wanted more info on the choices they made.... But I liked the ending anyways. I'm ok with things like the krogan/turian stuff being left open.

Star Child made sense to me

The dream sequences weren't so hot though

EDIT 2: BRAD, STOP READING HERE!

Some people posted joke endings that might tip you off. We want you to go in completely untarnished. All you need to know is that everyone is begging you to livestream your reaction + envelop opening. GB crew will confirm. /edit

From the beginning, you know the end.

Also has Brad really managed to stay unspoiled during the ME3 ending outrage? That's pretty impressive.

Oh Brad, you must. MUST.

Opportunities for material of this order are very rare, you guys NEED to get on this. I would subscribe for this.

This is the true ending to Mass Effect 3

You can't really condense what's wrong with the ending into one sentence so he's probably wrong.

Make the reveal a premium only live stream. You will make so much money.

Good job on the ceiling shot @patrickklepek, even on a short video gotta keep up the habit!

I think he wrote "I just shit my pants" that is my theory.

The Ending to MassEffect 3!

#BRADKNOWS

Bearded Brad is the best Brad.

Also, how crazy would it be if he got it right?

Anytime anyone talks about the ending of Mass Effect 3 I cry a little for them because I know how disappointed they are about to be.

Brad, buddy, you have no idea...
