I feel like it got so much hate only because people had very different expectations of how the game should have ended/wanted more time with the characters. I’m glad BioWare stood by their work and didn’t just cave to the backlash. It would have set a precedent and not a good one. Every time somebody shits on the game, the series, or worse - the studio - just because the ending wasn’t to their liking it kills me a little bit inside lol.

Did you feel that you got an ending that reflected all your choices across all three games?
Not really. Though, to be fair, that is a lot of choices. I had no expectation that every choice I made would be reflected in the ending. I never felt like I was promised anything. I took the ending for what it was. It wasn’t the best, but it had a significant emotional impact on me. Also, the end felt like it was more than just the choice part. The end seemed like it started from when they lock you out of the galaxy and set you on the linear last missions. In the end, I was happy with what I got.

I guess I just believed them when they said all your choices would be taken into account when deciding what ending you got. Call me a rube or whatever. I keep hearing that the Citadel DLC was really good, but the ending pissed me off so much I have never gone back to play it.
Maybe I would have a different opinion had I seen any of the marketing for the games. I might have felt the same, who knows.

The Citadel DLC is totally worth it. Even if you don’t buy it, look for a YT run through it or a twitch VOD.If you really loved the game prior to the ending I can almost guarantee you’ll love the DLC too.

I think i qualify as a huge fan :).
KotoR 1 and 2 are still great games, Played Dark and Light side, on both genders.
I’ve played through Dragon Age: Origins with all classes/races/genders, and all romance options, just to get little changes of dialogue in Wardens keep.
Around that time i’ve replayed Mass Effect about 5/6 times, both genders and some romance options.
I can’t count how many times i’ve played Mass Effect 2, full paragon, full renegade, all romance options through both genders, and replayed the games when the new character DLC’s came along.
Around that time i got my own family and responsibilities, so the hardcore powergaming had to slow down a little.
I played Dragon Age 2 twice, Isabela and Fenris romance.
Mass Effect 3 though, responsibilities or not, i must have played through that quite alot of times, both genders, all romance options, replayed for Leviathan DLC, replayed for Citadel DLC. Still didn’t like the ending.
Only played Dragon Age: Inquisition once (Pentagast romance), its a great game, but damn its huge. The prospect of replaying that just didnt pull me back in, and i just looked up all romances and stuff on youtube.
SWToR, all classes are level 65 apart from the imperial agent, but i stopped playing.
Loved Baldurs gate 2, but i only finished the game once. Was pretty young when i did.
Never played Jade Empire, never caught my attention.
And oh yeah, i have the Mass effect action figures, and a small normandy.
There, my nerdcred, i had way too much free time. 
Since i see the romance arguments already: I ship Morrigan, and i’m a Talimancer.

About DA: Inquisition:
I shamelessly pre-ordered that game.
I was in my second year of uni (which was going poorly), my laptop REFUSED to let the AMD GPU work properly and games would only detect my Intel HD one and it would overheat like a motherfucker. So when I downloaded DA:I I was really worried I wouldn’t be able to play it.
I beat that fucker running at an unsteady 15 FPS over the course of a few weeks (or less - can’t remember exactly 
).And then I bought the DLCs and played those. I killed all the dragons for fuck’s sake! It took, half an hour, at least to do each one cuz the game just ran so slow. I’ve played 177 hours of that game and 150 of it is my main playthrough. I’ve only beaten it once since it’s so damn huge.
I’m glad BioWare came up with the Keep so I don’t have to play ALL of it again to get the save I want for the next Dragon Age, which I am almost as excited about as I am for Andromeda. I REALLY REALLY wish they’d let us play as our Wardens/Warden-Commanders again. At the very least I wanna watch the Warden/Morrigan dynamic if they’re together and have their son.

Like every other Dragon Age game, I’m sure the Hero of Ferelden will look nothing like she did in Origins.
N7 day next week, get hype!

Okay, so the trailer is out! I’ll probably watch it a few more times throughout the week but I want to know what you guys thought about it. I’m curious about different enemy types like that giant mechanical transformer/replicator thing we got a glimpse of. We saw at least one of the new alien races too.
I didnt like it.
There is something that makes me say: This not looks like Mass effect. Or i am just a Shepard fanboy.
One thing i liked that seems they are coming back to ME1 like bad/evil guy (i hope so).
I think it’s very hard to detach ourselves from the trilogy and the connection to Shepard and everyone else but we kind of have to in order to give the new game a chance .
Don’t get me wrong, I miss them like crazy (I’ve been thinking about starting a new playthrough of the whole thing even though at this point I can quote scenes by heart). I guess I’m just okay with the series moving forward.
Why do you think it doesn’t look or feel like Mass Effect? What little we’ve seen of the tech so far seems in line with it, considering they’re in an entirely different galaxy.
I got a big horror vibe out of the trailer and I’m not liking it so far.
I was originally hesitant about the game. I was upset that instead of using the world that they already built out they wanted to scrap everything and create something new. Why then use the mass effect IP? Probably because of brand recognition but that’s not my point.
I watched that trailer and now i’m excited. I have so many questions. Why are we leaving the milky way? What catastrophic event caused us to want to leave? Strangely enough this still feels like mass effect. The universe is big and something bigger is threatening our very existence.
HOLY SHIT. New Andromeda gameplay looks sooo SICK. I want to play it right now
