Ah, so you weren't very involved in the fandom before ME3? That makes sense. Although I had read the occasional fic and browsed the Social forums (an...interesting place to be after ME3, to put it mildly), I actually read much more fic after ME3 than before. Some of them were 'fixes' for the ending, plenty of them weren't, but I can see how the uproar would draw you to other sane like-minded fans and how through that you could incorporate yourself into the fandom.

Well... I got into ME pretty late in general. Played ME2 last year on PS3, but I didn't really jump into the fandom - was forewarned more than once about BioWare fans. Once I got a 360 (last Christmas!) I grabbed ME1 and played that and 2 again, only this time I had even more feelings so I kind of waded into the fandom *then*, fanfic and Tumblr and all.

tl;dr, I was late to the Mass Effect party, stuck out through all the ME3 crap and uh here I am, haha.

Better late then never! The only real difference is you didn't have to experience quite as much pain waiting for the next parts of the trilogy, and that's a good thing! (I know I got into Assassin's Creed late and loved having multiple games to catch up on. It was lovely.)

All that matters is you made it into the fandom, and you enjoyed the series. I think the majority of fans would appreciate that. :)

Oh yeah, for all the bad that was that ending I don't regret any time spent with the games or the fandom :) The only real waiting I had to do was for ME3, but I filled that void with my ME1 and 2 360 run. And the books. And the comics. It was quite the information overload XD

At least with AC they come out every year (not sure about after this year though) so the waiting is less painful. I got into AC halfway between Brotherhood and Revelations and I... still have to play Revelations before I let myself even buy ACIII.
