Heh.

Sounds like you're exactly where I was a week and a half ago. I never really minded the ME3 ending. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. The extended endings help make them better, I think, even if it is just a bit of narration over some still pictures.

During my playthrough of ME3 last week, I found myself liking it much more than I did initially. As I said earlier, I can't really recall any specifics, but I wasn't enthralled with the game at launch. I remember it feeling rushed and a bit constricting.

Maybe I've changed in the years since then, but I loved ME3 this time. Enough that it might top ME2 as my favorite Mass Effect. It's close. The game does a great job of making the Reapers feel like a legitimate threat, like the entire galaxy is at war. And I think the appearances of all the old ME2 crew members work really well.

And it still looks great, and feels amazing to play.

Did you ever play Andromeda, Kermit? If you can go in with proper expectations, I do think it's a game worth playing.
