Assassin's Creed III

The ending to this game utter crap. It was just as bad as the Mass Effect 3 cop out ending. Why does this game not have the fan outcry and demand for a new ending like ME3 got? What makes this game get a pass but it was not okay for ME3?

Personally I find the ending to ACIII really bad. BUT!

It doesn not spit in the entire mechanics of the game (choices and their repercussions --> didn't matter in ME3 ending), did not suddenly add space magic (the Ones That Came Before were there since AC2) in a universe that was logical before, did not just have 3 choices instead of the promised 16 endings and did not just have bad options for it to end and most important did not leave the intire galaxy to rot and die.

The only thing they have in common is that it's rushed, has lot holes and is stupi... just like the end of ME3

This be the kicker right here, granted that doesn't even change much with the Extended Cut, but it improved it enough to satisfy the majority and cause those who despised it to move on

Such as shame that almost nobody can write a trilogy well anymore lol

The problem with restraining speech is, who gets to set the rules? If it's only okay in a certain time or place, who gets to say what time and what place?

I didn't hate the ME3 ending. Granted, I bought the game like a month or so after it came out and finally finished it after the Extended patch came out. I would've preferred if Male Shep and Kaidan lived happily ever after... but at least Liara's time capsule will tell his story.

The extended cut didn't please me. Granted, you can shoot the kid now, that was a really cool ending :-)
But the rest.... It's still space magic, the 3 choices are still bad, and it still does not explain what this kid is.

Why would Hackett order the fleet away BEFORE he could confirm if the reapers are dead? They did not know if the Crucible really was a weapon.

Why does Harbinger stop fireing when the Normandy lands to evacuate your teammates?

How do they repair the really damaged Normandy on a jungle planet without a dry dock and no spare parts?

In the destroy ending... how do they suddenly know about the technology of the Relays to repait them?

Aaaahhhhhh!!!! I must stop!! I'm just going to get mad again, I must live with the fact that BioWare screwed up my most favourite franchise *sob*

It's so much easier to see the world in black and white. Gray? I don't know what to do with gray.

AC3 isn't the announced end of the franchise either. It's the end of Desmond's story, but it's not necessarily the end of AC. We can still have some hope that Ubisoft will pull their heads out of their butts and give us a good story again.

ME3 was the end. The final note of something very beloved stank to high heaven, so people were pissed and got loud about it. I don't think they did more than turn on a small fan to get rid of some of the stink, but, hey, at least it wasn't as bad and they did do something.
