Mass Effect 3: 5 Reasons Extended Cut DLC Won't Make A Difference

2. Shepard is Meant to Die and Will Not Outlive the Apocalypse.

Pause for a second and read that again for good measure. No one likes to see their hero go, let alone like this, but we need to accept such creative choices. Don€™t get me wrong, the ending of ME3 is one of the worst I€™ve been through in regards to execution, but not storytelling: Having ghost images of what your actions will translate to moments before you choose your desired path is not exactly Mass effect worthy, but the eventual result scores an A+ on Sci Fi drama. Regardless, Shepard will die, and there€™s nothing you can do about it. Protagonists have died a million times in a bazillion games, even Shepard can die up to a total of three times throughout the trilogy! why make a fuss over this now and expect the DLC to answer to that?
