I donât know about you, but I couldnât wait to finish Mass Effect 3. Sure, I wanted to close out the battle against the Reapers, but I played to complete the campaign in BioWareâs threequel to see where all the characters Iâd grown to know wound up.
Oddly, many other people who bought Mass Effect 3 didnât feel the same way.
In a talk given at GDC Europe, BioWareâs Fernando Melo revealed that only 42% of players completed Mass Effect 3 in the five months since its release. 56% of players finished Mass Effect over the same time period. Melo said that the EA dev studio saw a spike in ME2 completions as fans geared up for the release of its follow-up.
Controversy about Mass Effect 3âs original ending jumped off soon after the gameâs launch and, while it might make sense that some people may not have purchased it after hearing about a lackluster denouement, it seems weirder that those who did buy the game wouldnât finish it. I wonder if that completion number changed after the Extended Cut added new material to the final part of Mass Effect 3.
