Conte Curatori omistaa sovelluksen Mass Effect (2007)

The series, without playing the 3rd, does make sense?

Couldn't find a better way to phrase it so, let me explain.
I have the first 2 games and

- Heard the ending of the third game is disappointing
- I have no intention of giving Ubi any of my money anymore

Therefore my doubt is: is the ending of the first game at the end of the third game or do each game stand up for itself without needing to play the entire trilogy to have the complete story?

ME3 has one thing worth it to play at all. Citadel DLC.

Choose the "red" ending (get war points to 6000+ before doing final mission), and it will be worth it.
Overall these games have such great storytelling, that a somewhat underwhelming resolution/choice in the end doesn't spoil it too much imo. Especially with the extended cut dlc (it's free), which makes it a bit better.

Main reason why there was so much hate from the fans is because the journey to that ending was EPIC, so it generated a lot of hype.

And yes, that:

I watched this a couple of days ago;

The originally planned ending was apparently changed...but sounds much better than the ending we eventually wound up with

1 and 2 are perfect, 3 and beyond is best left as a cliffhanger.

Playing only first game without two of its sequels does makes sense. However, playing 1 and 2 consequentially without third game does not.

The motives behind Reapers attack (aka the main reason to play these games) are revealed in the third game.

Unpopular opinion: The ending is GREAT. One of the best in video games.

P.S. Ubisoft doesn't relate to Mass Effect in any way.
