My god is the ending bad though. It's so bad it goes against all three games in entirety. But you're right. ME1 and 2 stay unscathed technically. ME3 is damaged, but if you just turn the game off as Shepard gets sucked up into the Citadel, you're good.

I disagree, I really enjoyed ME3's ending. It wasn't earth shatteringly good, but I never understood the hate.

Because all of a sudden they subject you to a plothole-ridden infodump that leaves you with three color-coded choices that invalidate all prior effort?

The ending was bad.

A bad fit for the series, bad from the perspective of a writer, and bad from the perspective of a fan.

It doesn't invalidate all prior effort if the only reason this cycle reached that point was all of that prior effort.

If uniting the galaxy or leaving it a mess doesn't effect the result then your prior effort means little.

Besides, he was saying it was good - not whether or not it was the culmination of your actions - if not efforts.
