Why does Mass Effect have to end so depresively. How am I suppose to play through with all the characters as Shepard, who's basically the glue that kept the crew together, but deep down know that the ending of ME3 is gonna blow all of it out of the water. Overall I'm just disappointed with the ending and I'm not going to go on a rant about how they could change it because this isn't Reddit. After all, this is a pretty old game for it's time and even though the ending knocked me into instant sadness, I still love it. It's like a younger brother, you find him really annoying at time, but you know you love him ?
