Retake, Rewind, Rebound

By Michelle Oraa Ali: Mass Effect 3, the highly anticipated final outing of Commander Shepard in the Mass Effect universe, has had to contend with controversy and criticism for very many reasons. The most appalling and, indeed, wide reaching of which is the  indignation  surrounding  the ending(s) of the game. Dedicated fans and newcomers alike were furious with the anti-climatic endings the game offered; claiming all their decisions in the build-up to the end were of no consequence. Fans who have dedicated hundreds of hours playing the Mass Effect series in anticipation of the final battle were angry to see their decisions reduced to a choice between three main endings. With the demand that Bioware supply them with an ending they deserve, fans all over the world have formed the ‘Retake Mass Effect’ movement. Bioware has announced plans for the ‘Mass Effect 3 Extended Cut’. The post explains that the DLC (which is looking at a summer release) will not provide any new endings to the game, only expanding and supplementing the currently existing ones via new cinematics and epilogue scenes.  Source: Deccan Chronicle
