![]() It's important to mostly dedicate your time leaning one way or the other right off the bat, especially early on in the game. Vice versa, as well, but you want to be careful not to lean too heavily into playing that middle ground. When you go paragon, there are renegade choices you must hit, it's tradition (punching the reporter, anyone?). Unfortunately, if it leads to more DLC and undermines the other endings to the game, that could upset even more fans.While I encourage everyone to play the way they want to play, there is a caveat that you should at least be aware of, something that I've noticed many players aren't even aware of when the credits have rolled. Though the debates over the Mass Effect 3 endings will continue for quite some time, at least we have yet another clarification regarding one of the questions left unanswered. So far, aside from the Extended Cut, players have only seen the release of new content for the game's multiplayer mode, but we expect more single player content is in the pipeline. Unfortunately, the crew of the Normandy is stranded on a lush, forest-covered planet, and have no way of reaching him.Īdditionally, if BioWare chose to use this as the canonical ending for Mass Effect 3, that would be the perfect jumping off point for more single player DLC. Gamers can finally end speculation that Shepard's movement was his last breath, and can rest easy knowing the star-travelling war hero is alive. As the Normandy lifts off, there is hope that the love interest and Shepard will again be together.Īckland also answers a couple other questions in regards to the game's new endings, but we had already summed those up pretty nicely in our 'Pros and Cons' post regarding the new endings. This is meant to suggest that the love interest is not ready to believe Shepard is dead, and the final scene reveals they are correct. You may notice that in the “Shepard lives” ending, the love interest hesitates to place Shepard’s name on the wall, and instead looks up as though deep in thought.Some even took this additional scene as validation for the Indoctrination Theory, which states those final couple of scenes all took place within Shepard's mind, and only the 'Destroy' option would allow him to live on.īut now, thanks to some comments from BioWare's Tully Ackland on the game's official forums, we know what really occurred: Shepard is alive. Many curious gamers took these two scenes to mean that Shepard had in fact not died, but was alive amidst the Crucible wreckage. Now with the addition of the Extended Cut DLC for Mass Effect 3, that ending also features Commander Shepard's love interest, whoever that may be, refusing to place his name amongst the list of those Normandy crew members who were lost across all three games. ![]() In the 'Destroy' ending, which sees Commander Shepard choosing to eliminate the Reaper threat completely and not give in to the Stargazer's wishes, there is a small scene tacked on to the ending that shows Commander Shepard's seemingly lifeless body taking a breath. But, in order to talk about it fully, a spoiler warning must be issued. Rumors had been circulating for quite some time in regards to the games 'Destroy' ending, and now BioWare wants to set the record straight. While the Extended Cut DLC has answered many (not all) of the questions gamers have been asking since concluding Mass Effect 3, there is one particular nagging issue that BioWare wants to put to rest.
