Am I the only one who still plays all ME games and DA games in 2018? I absolutely lovvvveeee this ending, I wish this was the real thing. I love Kaidan and FemSheps romance and I also love any romance with Liara. This is my favorite thing, God, I know Andromeda came out, but I really, really hope they make like a "Mass Effect: The Aftermath" showing them finding Shepard and getting reconnected with the original crew and everything working out. Or where you're playing as Shepard again but it's a little in the future and whoever your romance was with, you have a child with them and like something takes the child and you fight to get them back with your "Spouse/partner" idk, throwing out ideas here.
Breana Fundermark unfortunately I think Mass Effect franchise is dead. They ruined it so badly with the endings of 3 and didn't make up for it in Andromeda lol. The only way I can see them rebooting the franchise is if they remaster 1. Change it's combat system to be like 2 and 3. And add DLC to 1 maybe. That would only mean they'd have to get all the voice actors again which can be an issue in itself. But hey we can only dream... 😞
It made me so made especially if you took the time to get a maxed out war effort it was Ike BioWare said fuck you to all the hard work we did over all the games
@@nicolepennington677 i mean with high enough war assets in the destroy ending, you see shepard take a breath, means she will live then. It is a free estate what happens post war basically, and mine definitely has her happy ever after with Kaidan :D I like this mod, but there is also a mod-light version for it, where the companions search for/find shepard right before she draws a breath, which is my personal fave.
@@nicolepennington677 aww, i see. I only now play on pc and could mod it (not the mele version yet sadly) but since i write fanfic i can fix a lot in my stories and handwave the rest. Just gotta be selective with canon and throw away the rest haha. I always took the gasp of breath as shepard surviving even if their recovery probably takes a long long time. But as said post war events are a free estate as long you choose destroy. I don't like the endings where shep dies tbh, it makes all so fuckin pointless. Let her have her happy ending, she suffered enough ffs
Combine this mod with the Priority Earth Overhaul Mod, and you've got a hell of a ride. I prefer this ending any day. My girl Shepard *earned* a happily ever after, and Kaidan didn't deserve to have his heart broken a third time. This ending still carries the bittersweet tone that Bioware wanted, reflecting over everything and everyone that was lost, but focuses more on the 'sweet' than the 'bitter'.
Agreed. I don't get the idea that a positive ending or one option existing where the hero can survive automatically equates to a "Disney ending". No, maybe it's just some players thought losing friends, allies, whole systems and civilizations to the Reapers all throughout the game just to GET to this point was sacrifice enough. If it's more about the journey than destination, then this interpretation is just as valid, or should have been. At some point, the culmination and repercussions of our own choices need to have agency and room to play out so we can see it all come together (ME2 got this right regardless if people played where everyone survived or if everyone died. Wish ME3 followed that example). And maybe some of us find the "hero has to die" trope just as cliched as whatever argument could be used to support the opposite stance. At best, prior to the ending controversy all those years ago, most people were just hoping for an ending where Shepard could live and reunite with their love interest while critically injured at the hospital. The current state of the galaxy would speak for itself: it would theoretically take the surviving populace DECADES to rebuild after this level of devastation even if Shepard managed to get a high or max EMS. Post war clean up, territorial disputes and damage control would be an utter nightmare, even more so with the damaged mass relay system. That's hardly a description of a picture perfect Disney ending IMO. At worst, we were all expecting the Reapers to win and harvest everyone, Shepard included.
Destroy ending always made the most sense. With the other two endings you sorta become "friends" with the reapers. At the end of the day, the reapers killed millions of friends, family, loved ones etc more than the geth and the Turians x human war. I really cannot see how the galaxy would just openly accept it. Plus Hackett says the relays are just severely damaged. Not totally destroyed equals it can be fixed. True in the original destroy the geth and AI also got destroyed but at the end of the day they can be brought back. Not like the quarians lost that technology. Everyone also has peace because of what Shepard accomplished. Also their LI doesn't have to lose Shepard because even if you break up with them in game it's the most bloody heart breaking thing ever, so imagine if they died? Depression city. Shame that Anderson dies no matter what tho. :(
I know how to get this ending!! Play to the point where Anderson says "you did good child" and then eject the disc and burn that fucker. Then watch this video XD
Cries - Joker's voice in that scene whilst Shepard is hurt :( Sides, the Normandy was the best damn ship in the galaxy, and my Garrus wouldn't have simply left Shep like they made him do! So many things could have happened in ME's ending (the parallel universe theory) and they gave us all universes where Shep gets left behind.
My Shepard deserves an end of these , do not like to end where the main character dies by idiocy of the production , for me this was the end of my Shepard full Paragon . Give me a break who said he liked the original ending , for everything that my Shepard and my Shepard went they deserve a happy ending, and everyone wants a happy ending, this is the truth . My true end .
THIS should of have been the F******KING ENDING!!!! man Bioware should learn the lesson..... seriously you played all the three games all these years and you freaking kill Shepard at the end.......
ReaperOFD00M Agreed. Haven't had a chance to play the third game (finally just bought it so I'll be getting to it soon) but I've watched videos of all the endings. They all kind of suck. I'll be doing one playthrough romancing Garrus and doing the default Destroy ending, just for the sake of completing the game "properly" once. Then I'll do another playthrough where I romance Kaiden and use the MEHEM ending, as that will by the "canon" ending for my FemShep and Kaiden romance.
I dont care if this is not made by the officials, this is the offial ending. PS: I downloaded this just incase its ever tooken down. The music for omega 4 suicide goes really well with this ending, gets my heart pumping and gives me hope.
The problem with the ending is that bioware made a multiple choice ending rather than letting the choices we made through all 3 games affect the ending. This is what I rather have as the ending of mass effect 3
In my humble opinion, due to the lack of final boss fight in Mass Effect 3, I would've loved to see at least some kind of fight with the Illusive Man, instead of just dialogue.
Carl Whitted it was better because it was different from it's previous successors. It was a battle of wits. It wasn't your typical "something turns into a beast and fights you" But hey I guess some people like the usual shit 😂😂
This is great. Exactly what I wanted to see when I finished the game yesterday. Too bad your Shepard doesn't look much like mine. I'd just watch this instead of the real ending :)
That's ... pretty awesome. Thanks, Fluffy! You rock for recording all these! Now, all important question: Will installing this mod get me banned from multi-player matches? Anybody know?
I was wondering.. Do my crew members ( from ME1 to ME2 ) survive if I had not those picture with them ? I picked synthesis end, does it have something do to with it ?
Thank you for uploading this. Im too scared to do it myself for two reasons. - I like my femshep with Garrus - and i've seen the horrid nose-possession. >.< and - I kinda dont trust that bioware wont throw a curve ball and announce new DLC which adds onto the ending or that the NEW Mass effect wont add onto this in some weird way. I know we already have the extended cut but the Shepard "breathing" scene and the "Tell me another story about the shepard" bit makes me suspicious...
No, it won't. This mod only chhanges single player and Bioware emplyee said "you will not be banned for modifying your files *unless. . .they give you an unfair advantage in any multiplayer aspect of the game."
It's from MEHEM, or the Mass Effect Happy Ending Mod. You have to download that first, and then play the game as usual. Get a high enough military rating by the end of the game, and you get this ending which has Shepard being rescued and reunited with their love interest, which for this particular video was Kaidan. The mod only allows for the Destroy the Reapers option. It skips the Star Child portion entirely, so there is no option to spare them, integrate, or shoot the stupid kid in the face.
@HaMySoSoIm Install the mod and play through ME3 as normal. So long as you get a high enough rating by the end, I forget the score but it's fairly easy to reach if you do things right, then when you get to the final raid on the citadel this ending kicks in at a certain point. You won't talk to the Star Child, but instead you are rescued by the Normandy and another ship and things play out as seen in the video. It makes for a generally better ending than any of the official ones, and it can be easily removed if you want to use one of the official endings instead. I think you can add the mod part way through a run of the game, but I forget where the cutoff point is. It is mentioned on the page for the mod if you do a search for it.
Haven't played mass effect... But I still feel I should ask why there's gotta be a mod in the first place. Not complaining the person who made did a good job
loke griberg they didn't have the weapon the whole time. liara tsoni was working with the alliance on an outpost in Mars, where as the reapers attacked earth, the plans for what is known as the weapon passed down could less cycles. the alliance began construction.

The destroy sequence with the suicide mission theme playing behind it is spine tingling, better than most films.
Kelsey Robinson Just to clarify it's actually the combat music from the overlord DLC in ME2
Kelsey Robinson at the start anyway
Thank you for the happy ending. Bioware should pay you for this ending. Maybe when they release it on the Xbox one.

Ohhh shit that chokes me up.
love it
Better than the regular ending.
Bioware this is what mass effect endings should be.
Giving us and ending like this on the legendary Edition would have made it with the money.

This should be the end, if you take red. I´m a hopeless romanticist :D
