I loved the game, it was probably the best in the series until you get blown up running for the portal. They just totally fucked it up after that. People don't want an ending that raises yet more questions, they want a Return of the Jedi ending not crazy fucking magic blue space child who is totally out of place in the universe they've spent 3 games creating.
The ending was in no way influenced by the choices you'd made, only by how much of the little bar you'd got filled. Choices like freeing the Rachni queen should have had huge influence on the ending and final battle but it doesn't. The three endings have nothing to do with any choices you've made, nothing to do with the entire universe you've played through and nothing to do with anything you've actually done. It was three cut scenes which are exactly the same with different colours.
What's wrong with having a boss fight, a nice big boss fight with some ancient AI or alien which prior to the fight you'll have a nice long chat with and he'll explain everything and wrap it up in a nice little bow before you kick his ass, high-five Anderson and go back to Earth for tea and medals.
This basically sums up my thoughts on it. Realizing that the big finale is essentially a non-choice really colored my opinion of the whole game though. I had a great time playing it, but it sorta feels like a waste now. I don't get into video game stories much, and having one that I actually cared about end like that pissed me off.
Oh well, I still enjoyed. I just don't have any intention of playing it again.
I really enjoy dubstep, but one thing really bugs me. There is far too much remixing going on. Hearing four different versions of a single song (Raise your Weapon is a good example) is tiresome, regardless of how good those remixes are. A dubstep remix of a dubstep song starts getting real weird.
I believe that God created the universe. I believe he sent Christ to die for all of humankind. And I believe that whole heartedly.
But this is not the place for me to try to convince you that. Neither is a street corner. Neither is going door to door. I believe to convince people that God loves them, I should show it in the way I act. It's not my place you beat anyone over the head with my beliefs. It's my job to be an example of my beliefs.
Cheers.
This sums up my views quite well. Actions speak louder than words.
