Honestly I remember back then getting through it and being like “oh that’s it I guess” went online and people were just melting down. It is sorta hilarious that there’s an entire mod dedicated to fixing the ending and to be fair I used it back in like 2018.
I think what disappointed me the most was when they released that patch that basically killed off the Shepard Indoctrination Theory. I loved how open ended it was, it was subversive, it explained so many bizarre things the game did for a far better payoff (that random PTSD chasing kid stuff is awful). It even ended up being subversive against the idea that doing all the side content will get you the best ending by making the special synthesis ending another dead end and the kill all reapers to be the best choice and you were given a payoff for it.
