What do you think could've improved the Mass Effect 3 ending if it's the same story?
It's explained by Vendetta that The Reapers have a backdoor to The Citadel. Harbinger took The Illusive Man there to commandeer and transport The Citadel to Earth. There, was that so hard to explain Bioware?
Prior to Priority:Earth, Hackett explains that there is an evacuation plan for when the Crucible will go off
If you romance Jack or Miranda, we are given the chance to invite them for the final fight.(This is just me being bitter that they were excluded in ME3) this way we can get a proper paramour scene for Jack and Miranda
First of all there is no Starchhild(more on that later) The reason why Shepard even dreams of the child is to symbolize Shepard's guilt for not being able to save those on Earth and to symbolize the innocence lost in the beginning of the game. That is all the dreams needed to be. I mean the final dream could've just showed Kaidan/Ashley, Mordin, Thane and Legion together just to show the friends who died.
There would be a montage of cutscenes to showcase all the War Assets we acquired throughout the game
During the fight to reach the beam. When Shepard saves his crew, we would see multiple ships firing Thanix cannons to distract Harbinger, that way we don't just get Harbinger just letting the Normandy escape "it's okay Shepard, take your time"
We would see Anderson carrying Shepard so they both reach the beam. While on the Citadel, we clearly see Shepard and Anderson together
The Citadel Tower and the Master Control Terminal looks as it did in ME1
We get the same talk as we got with the Illusive Man, but this time we know how and why he got onto the Citadel and we know how Anderson is on because he was with us
The final moment with Anderson happens and when Anderson passes, Shepard will walk and activate the Crucible via the Control Terminal
No Starchild. No Control and no Synthesis. The Crucible exists to solely destroy The Reapers.
EDI and Synthetics are safe. The Catalyst would focus on The Reapers.
As the push for the fleet to evacuate the beam, the crew of the Normandy in the shuttle goes to get Shepard off the Citadel. We either play as Shepard's love interest and the most used squad member.(So in my case Jack and Garrus.) Shepard is secured and the Normandy crashes onto the planet that it did in the actual ending
We see a montage of Reapers being destroyed
Extended Cut ending, but we see The Geth and Quarians together in the ending montage. The rest of the Extended Cut plays out as it did and closes with Hackett saying
"The war is over. The Reapers have been defeated. Against all odds, and in the face of the greatest threat this galaxy has ever known, we survived. We suffered many losses. The relays are severely damaged, but we won. This victory belongs to each of us... every man, woman, and child. Every civilization, on every world. Now, as we take our first steps toward restoring what we lost, we must remember what it took to win. This wasn't a victory by a single fleet, a single army, or even a single species. If this war has taught us anything, it is that we are at our strongest when we work together. And if we can put down our grievances long enough to stop something as powerful as the Reapers, imagine what we can achieve now that they are defeated. It will take time, but we can rebuild everything that was destroyed. Our homes, our worlds, our fleets and defenses. All of this - and more. Together, we can build a future greater than any one of us could imagine. A future paid for by the sacrifices of those who fought and died alongside us. A future that many will never see. And while we still have many challenges ahead of us... We can face them together. And we will honor those who died to give us that future."
The final scene is Shepard putting Anderson's name on the Normandy Memorial and our love interest comforting Shepard
