It upended the industry in 2012, in a way in which it never fully recovered.

Why didn't Mass Effect 3 make its story work around the only 5 major decisions all players of Mass Effect 1 and 2 see no matter how they played the game? It wouldn't have been that hard.

In hindsight I think we should forgive BioWare. They actually listened when they got criticized, and patched it, and they actually fixed everything we said was wrong with the endings. What other vidya dev does that?

Never should've added the Gay romance choice.

Give me 1 good reason why the games industry didn't die as a result of THIS GAME

What other franchise had a bad ending that got fixed with a DLC that addressed everything that was wrong with it. You can hate BioWare, but at least they listened to your concerns.

>The ending doesn't work because it doesn't wrap up established factoids from before
>It creates all new exposition and makes the story about something entirely different at the last second
Any other examples of really shitty endings like that?
