The journey of ME3 was by and large spectacular, but a lot of people, myself included, couldn’t get over the fact that the ultimate choice of your grand space opera boiled down to what color filter you wanted over your ending cinematic.

I don’t know many people that think ME3 itself was a bad title (Scruffy inbound), but when EA was marketing “a gajillion different endings,” the endings we got weren’t what most people had in mind. Felt similar to the way GoT ended in that regard.

The extended edition and Citadel DLC helped soothe the ruffled feathers of most of the fan base, but I feel like EA and BioWare really missed an opportunity to stick the landing.

The ending sucked and none of the choices you made along the way actually mattered, they all funneled to essentially the same end result. Far from perfect.
This.

ME3 even retconned previous games so that they could input certain elements into 3.

ME1 and 2: “The rachni are an extinct species of which only one queen remains!”

ME3: “We found another rachni queen behind an expired box of macaroni at the local 7/11.”
