10/14/2023 0 Comments Mass effect 3 synthesis endingMass Effect 3’s social darwinist message is that multiracial societies with multicultural policies are doomed to fail: they must end in genocide, slavery, or eugenic assimilation. But Mass Effect 3 is more like a cautionary tale or work of dystopian propaganda it’s a story designed to convey a specific political message, like 1984, or Brave New World. My mistake was expecting an RPG like Mass Effect 1 or Mass Effect 2, one where I have some agency in shaping the meaning of the story. Was I missing Mass Effect 3’s point? Definitely. I had no desire to replay it, which shocked me given my many completionist runs of Mass Effect 1 and Mass Effect 2. In 2012, the game left me feeling empty and depressed. I’ve never been fond of Mass Effect 3 and I’ve always struggled to articulate why.
