But it's not that the ending wasn't HAPPY. That was never the issue. It's that the endings come out of absolutely nowhere, raise more questions than they answer, and leave you with almost no sense of closure. As I've said before, I would have been fine if Shepard and half of her/his crew died horribly, as long as I understood what the hell just happened, and learned what my choice would actually mean for the universe.
I actually would have liked the ending to have been more bleak. I wanted to see the squadmates who make the final run with you get killed. It would have been a great, somber realization. These were the guys you were so tight with, who you relied on and trusted to get it done so much, you took them on that last push, and they fucking died, right next to you, trying to help, and there was nothing you could do.
I thought that had happened at first, but no, they somehow got on the Normandy, which somehow crash landed safely on an idealistic, uninhabited planet with livable atmosphere, gravity and vegetation.
I actually held out hope for a couple of seconds that there would be a video of Jeff and the guys walking into the gamespot offices, NWO theme blaring from a stereo, complete with the classic NWO shirts.
That would've been fucking cool.
Too Swuheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
According to Twitter, they wanted to do something like that and got it approved, but it didn't work out for some reason.
I can't watch the video at work. Can someone explain briefly what the news is?
Giant Bomb and Comic Vine have been bought by CBSi, the owners of Gamespot. They are moving into their offices. Giant Bomb will continue to be it's own entity and operate the same way.
