I get strange feelings when I listen to this. Strange thoughts too, like I might wander off into the mountains and not come back.

That´s how Mass Effect 3 ending felt as well.

Yeah, same kind of?

That actually describes this song so well. x')

This song has such a heart ache to it...I can't explain it, but it has a pained atmosphere.
forgetful stranger
Yeah uhm perhaps it's the shit end to an amazing trilogy
ImperialMartin
It has,indeed.Shepard died...a Trilogy,the best ever,just ended. This Song fits perfectly.

+Kaldwin i'll side with the melancholy feel, i picture someone thinking about what he lived and wondering how things could've been different
Valour Winds
+Kaldwin Its so awesome how we all get different interpretations.. for me, this song evokes a very deep, almost primal sense of exploration within me.. I imagine scuba diving or in a submarine and exploring the very depths of the ocean.. the synth-work, guitars, and drum samples have a very "underwater" feel to them, I can't really explain it.. it's like deep under the ocean with sunlight reflecting off the surface to deep below..

With the synthesis ending, i wonder if Joker would need condoms or Avira

I remember finding this song after becoming a fan of Faunts after playing Mass Effect. I remember thinking it would make a good credits theme for one of the next games. Lo and behold when ME3 comes out I am pleasantly surprised!
Efrain Galvan
This! I just LOVE that they brought faunts into the last game. M4 part 2 got me hook to this band when it came out and I'm just really glad they brought them back.
Adam Harrison
This song both helps me to relax and become uneasy at the same time
squidbaby
I felt pumped up and wanted to draw everything for me :-)
Russ Wetli
This is good but the ending of ME1 fading into M4 part 2 was the coolest outro ever. Maybe the outro of Tron Legacy with its kick ass soundtrack.
Ben van der Riet
True, there is nothing quite like it
Elijah Mohsin
Awesome song, and it'd be awesome even if Mass Effect hadn't used it.
Jeremiah Rodriquez

@***** lol even I misread it at first. :p
Björn Mätal
@ThePhirenor You misunderstood me. ^^ I got to know them via ME1, without it I wouldn't be here. ;)
_bruh
@Björn Mätal You probably would. After all, they made Brilliant M4 Part 2 for the first Mass Effect game. That song is just amazing!
Björn Mätal
Yeah but hey, I for example wouldn't know them. Think about others too, would you? ;)
Scott Artemius
I LOVED Mass Effect 1,2,3 and all the Endings. It is still one of the best series in gaming history!
Imthegoat3000
I think the Arkham games are better for now but, you never know
Tlot Pwist
Glad i picked Synthesis first time i played. The music worked better for shepard jump than the two other ends
Daniel Rodera
to me mass effect is just mass effect, I can't judge the games separately.

Fucking loved the ending. Wasn't a happy ending but the whole universe went through a massive shift and broke a million-year cycle. All because of Shepard. I honestly think that only Dune (the books, not the movie) is the only other Sci-Fi that gets this fucking epic and emotional.
StMalk
Rest In Peace, Commander Shepard, I'm gonna miss you.

Edmonton game, Edmonton band. Great stuff. Go Alberta!

This song will forever remind me of failed videogame series' endings.
victor torres
For anyone who has finished mass effect 3.
If you didn't cry as hard as I did at the end, then replay this song over and over until you do.
As soon as - that certain thing happened at the end - I burst out tears.
Mass Effect had some good times - Saved the Council and the Ascension, Destroyed the Collector base and ----( Omit Spoiler )---- Incredible game.
If there is one character that I fell in love with; Liara.
Above all else.
Really hope they release another alternate ending in the DLC.

Epic music + Epic Story of ME + Epic ME = Epic Memories... My children will play Mass Effect..

Absolutely Tangerine Dream. There's no doubt that there's an influence in there.

I loved the fusion of organic and synthetic life ending. That is the most beautiful ending to any game or movie I've ever seen.
Miraak
A lonely road, a single car lighting up the blacktop as it winds along the dark curves. It does not know the destination, only that it is alone. As the night passes, so do the thoughts of the driver. "Where am I headed? How did I come to be on this endless stretch? Is this what it is to be alone? I feel the car, I hear the hum of the engine, but it is too quiet. Solitude is not as I imagined." In the end, he submits. He cannot escape the endless road he is on. All he can do to stay sane is put the car to the utmost limits and race for the end of the road that he isn't even sure has an end. And so the car surges ahead, seemingly filled with a new energy, but the hopelessness of the driver begins to affect the scenery, and all seems to begin to fade. And it does. Into Black.

Thank you
Tenebris
So glad Faunts is back for ME3. They were seriously missed in ME2. :(
victor torres
The ending made me cry, it was an incredibly awesome and moving scene - Liara's face flashing before my eyes, joker saluting me and my mentor and friend anderson giving me a resounding nod... I cried.
Especially when Liara's big beautiful eyes looked up at me as my body was burned away by the green laser.
Then I realized that the ending actually had made a bunch of loopholes that really didn't make sense.
So if you ask me, I will tell you that the ending made me cry - in a good way! But...
Felewin
You did good, son, you did good.
ChaosAgentLoki
This is so amazing. Faunts has such a wonderful sound. Glad to know that they've returned for ME3, I was honestly disappointed that they weren't part of the ending credits for ME2.
StrugglerBry
2:23 's beat gives me the chills everytime..
NoiseKidd
It's weird. Even after all the shit hit the fan with the ending of ME3, I don't regret a moment I've played this series. And I kind of want to go back and do it again. This music makes me feel things I can't explain.
Random Elephant
It sounds like a jungle game at 1st but then it gets more relaxing

Yesterday I completed Mass Effect 3... I have no words... This game series will be forever in my heart
Francesco Parente
I discovered this music with mass effect, it has a strange impact on me: makes me want to cry even if I'm happy and makes me wish to listen it again, even if I am malinconic, to cry more. The feelings born with the game don't help me to forget this song.
aperson30
not gonna spoil it, but i like how the song translates into "the evil deed" because the "indoctrination theory", a theory developed by fans to help others understand the ending, states that each ending is a renegade action forced on you that leaves us with only one way out: dlc to expand the ending.
Aidan Fly
I liked this song before it was in Mass Effect. And it was my favorite song before then as well. And I like it even more now that it has been in Mass Effect.
Tobias Christensen

Loopen22
Mass Effect 3 and this song itself both really mean something to me. They connect to me on an emotional level. The ending of Mass Effect 3 in general, no matter what choice you made was really fantastic. As soon as I saw Shepard bleeding out and Hackett trying to find out what is wrong with the Crucible, to when Shepard makes the final decision; it made me think about Humanity, the miracle that is life, synthetic existence, and more. I'm not afraid to admit the beauty of it brought tears forth.
Steve Berry
This has a definite "John Carpenter," "Escape from New York" sort of vibe to it. Can absolutely see it being used in an 80s-era sci-fi movie. Great song!

This song is the good part of Mass Effect 3 Ending ! Can't wait anymore for another game of the series...I'll miss Shephard so much; No matter what scars you bear, no matter uniforms you wear, you can fight like a Krogan, you can run like a leopard but you'll never be better than commander Shepard! dun dun dun dundun dundun dun dun can't forget this another piece of art lol so funny

finding out this was another song by faunts after I completed the game was super nostalgic for me. I had no idea it was by them, their style is perfect for mass effect and I completely fell in love with m4-part 2 when I first beat mass effect 1 :)

the thing i have to think about most about this track is its name...
Efrain Galvan
Wasn't aware this song was also a end song for the ME series. Thx for the heads up I haven't played the last one and I heard alot of people bitch about the ending but thankfully I don't know what happens :D
Howard Powers
this song will always remind me of her, the redhead who shared that time with me, in that car, in that church parking lot
Emily5396
Strange. this song is associated with such sadness in the ending. but listening to it without seeing the ending is strangely comforting. Kind of like the ME1 ending song (M1P2) or the ME2 suicide run music. Makes me think of all the crap i've been through to get here. Makes me kinda feel like life will go on, but in the meantime, the possibilities are endless, ya know?

Hey, I was pretty happy with my Mecha-Cthulhu God-Empress of the Galaxy Shepard ending. :D

i was here since ME1... liked it's credits' song n searched out about the band... Faunts... ME series started with one of their song, and ended same way... it was nice they put it in the credits, made me bring back memories from ME1...
still hate the endings... but it was epic that this song was there...

Can definitely say this is a relaxing song. For whatever reason. It's not exactly got a tune you'd expect to be relaxing.

- It's warped, the dead bodies have no faces, there is only one way to the console, anderson is already there. - The Illusive man appears out of nowhere, looking like a husk, you have a magical infinite ammo gun, before you enter the conduit there is a few of the trees from your dream behind you and if you select destruction with 5000+ ems Shepard wakes up in rubble, in london, stone and concrete... not the citadel's composite structure.
It's an indoctrination. - Destruction breaks you out.
Tirranek
@815Sox Sums up my feelings really. Yeah, it's grim, but breaking a galactic cycle that's lasted for millions of years was never going to be without difficulty. Like they keep saying throughout the game 'We can rebuild.'
Danielkaas94
This is great!
Carter Hanson
Hell yeah I agree with everything you said you are not alone. Best science fiction tale ever told and my favorite video game series

Sounds like hope :). And the extended endings made the game from 99% percent perfect to a 100% perfect game. And quite possibly the best game ever.

I love and hate that Ending so fucking much.

If you enjoy this song, you might like the band "Maserati" as well... nearly identical in style and just as good.

right.
although it was good for Faunts (not the crying part), the've become more popular.
and it's a freakin' good song.

And the thing with Faunts is that it just goes SO DAMN WELL with everything that Mass Effect is. I fuckin love it.
