So, in addition to all of the other stuff that's wrong with ME3, I hear a lot of people complaining about how the ending is nonsensical or pointless or otherwise just plain bad. I've been trying to avoid spoilers, so I don't know if this is just the Internet being the Internet or if these are actually valid complaints.

Could anyone who has played through and finished ME3 let me know WITHOUT SPOILERS OF ANY KIND if you agree with the general consensus that the ending sucks? Or is the Internet just blowing a lot of hot air? I mean, if there was one thing that the Mass Effect series has gotten right in the past, it has been the story. I'd hate to think that they managed to screw even that up in the final game. :/ I'm not looking for specific plot points or anything (WITHOUT SPOILERS OF ANY KIND), I just want to know if you give the endings a general overall "Yes, it was good and the Internet is full of it" or "No, it completely sucked, the Internet is totally right" or "Eh, it was okay I guess but not nearly as awesome as it could have been."

(EDIT)

Well, so far I've gotten a "...yes, the outrage is justified on multiple levels. Not just a 'bad' ending. 99% of ME1~ME3 is pure awesome storywise, ME3's last 10 minutes pees in the face of the entire franchise and its unique storytelling." response via Twitter. I can safely say that this is a bad sign. :/

This leads to a site with the Baldur's Gate logo and a countdown timer.

On the one hand, OMG new Baldur's Gate game? Holy crap!!!

On the other hand, however, if it's being made by the same BioWare that made Dragon Age II and Mass Effect 3... hmm, maybe I'd be better off to just let this news pass me by without another thought and not get excited at all. ¬_¬

Well, in any event, I guess we'll find out what this is about around this time tomorrow.

For reasons that I cannot adequately explain, even to myself, my music-at-work playlist for the past week or so has consisted of Dr. Doom's theme, Taskmaster's theme, and Magneto's theme from Marvel vs Capcom 3, on infinite repeat.

Right here.

If you don't know what Wasteland is, just think of it as the father (or at least the older brother) of Fallout. And if you don't know what Fallout is... well... ¬_¬

Anyway, I haven't donated myself (yet), but they're already within $150,000 of their $900,000 goal, as of this post. As for me, I'll probably just go for the $15 thing, but I do have to admit that the $50 option does look rather tempting, as well...
