I get the outrage on the fan side. For a series that was all about choices that resonate across titles to have an ending that ignored all those previous choices was directly against the spirit of the series.

But lets not fool ourselves; we act like its easy to write multiple endings wrapping up hundreds of hours of divergent story lines, lol. Them niggas chose the lazy route but its not gonna take away the hours I poured into my perfectly planned alien lesbian relationship with femshep, DAMMIT.

As long as the Mass Effects basics are there; divergent storylines, great characters, missions/storylines that had 'heft' ill deal with some clunky fire and animation. Lets not act like the OG trilogy was killing it with the playability or the graphics, lol. Shit was Grand Theft Auto level of clunkiness, but like GTA the fun factor made all that shit not matter in the end.
