Let me start off by saying that the Mass Effect story line has been one of, if not THE favorite story that I've followed since it came out. I've followed many stories in games throughout my gaming career from war to action to just about anything you can imagine. I can absolutely, without a single shadow of a doubt, say that Mass Effect 3 is the perfect end to the franchise. If you followed the Mass Effect games, you would understand when I say that it is very easy to get yourself immersed into these games. From the romance to the action all the way to the story. The story is the main focus here. How someone could think up of something on such a grand scale is so amazing to me. Just to watch the massive large scale images and scenes in Mass Effect 3 just stirs the very depths of the soul, yearning the player to immerse themselves in the game. I sat for the last 20 minutes of the game in a surreal state. I was experiencing about a thousand different emotions ranging from sadness to satisfaction. I honestly don't understand what the outcry is over the ending. If you go into a game/movie/book wanting the end to be how you WANT it to be, you will always be disappointed. If you go with the mindset that I went with, which is to be open to whatever the story is made for, you'll be pleasantly satisfied. A game has never made me yearning for more like this did. Not even the Halo series can touch this story. Granted, they are two different entities entirely, but on the large scale epic story that is told, Mass Effect takes the cake. So here's to you Bioware, well done.
