Mass Effect 3 provided DLC packages of extended ending scenes to help put more closure to the plot. According to a poll posted on Bioware social network forum, a vast majority, 84%, of voter showed dissatisfaction with Bioware's offering.
Protests arose as gamers formed the group "Hold the Line" in an attempt to persuade Bioware into altering Mass Effect 3's conclusion. The cries for change raised over $800 after a series of text messages was sent to the development company demanding admission to the failed ending and action to rectify it.
Amidst the controversy, many fans are still taking part in Mass Effect's DLC releases and weekend mission. The game's challenge is set for an allied goal to kill 1,000,000 Cerberus Phantoms and Squad Goal of surviving until extraction on any map and any enemy on Gold difficulty.
