So wow. How do I feel about EC ? Would it have been the original ending, I guess I would have thought it was crappy too.
I mean, the Normandy showing up in the middle of the beam run was rather ridiculous, and then... okaayyyyy, the looooooong good bye scene was not credible at all.As it has been said earlier, I don't think Shep would have risked jeopardizing the final push just to say "I love you" to Kaidan. She knows he knows it already after all

But credibility aside, I was tear-eyed during that scene cause yeah, Kaidan's voice breaking from despair, his look as he reach with his hand to Shep.... My... to simply think about it as I am writing those lines, I feel my throat tightening.So reason tells me : these scene was ridiculous. My 10-years-old-heart (still dreaming of a Prince Charming on a unicorn to pick me up) tells me : you know you love cheesy and heartbreaking stuff (especially when Mr Alenko is involved).So yeah. I loved the scene, even if I know there was no sense in it.
And I chose Destroy. My Shep had been indoctrinated to choose the Synth ending the first time months back, but she broke free (yeah I reloaded

) and always chose destroy ever since.
So the slideshows where a bit strange yeah. Already said before, but the chronology feels wrong (with Shep breath coming at the end) and why are you showing me Zaeed and not Miri and Jack ?

Oh, and yeah, like some people here, I got Thane before Kaidan. I really loved Thane, but if I had to choose, I would have prefered my bro Garrus. I already mourned Thane, already cried like a schoolgirl when he died. Just don't put me through that again

And with Destroy, EDI's name appeared on the memorial wall for me though.
About the Rachni glance

I felt like he was glancing to the crew beside him.Like "Yeah guys, I know you think she/he's dead, that I should put her/his nameplate on the wall, but I'm not sure... why do I feel differently ?" because yeaaaaah Kaidan knows better (so does some other LI like Steeve if I understood well).
All in all, I'm not *that* disapointed. Like Garrus, "I always expect the worse, so there's a small chance I'll be pleasantly surprised".
I knew they would not change the ending, so well... they tried to devellop the end while sticking to the original one. It's better. Not perfect, but definitely better.
I am a bit sad that Kaidan didn't have moaaaar lines... I don't know, maybe a little chat between him and Joker... always figured them to be pals... . And we still don't know what happens to Shep. I'm okay with open endings where you can imagine what you want, but this is just still too vague

But hey. Headcanon and fanfic are our friends.
Oh crap. Sad it is over. Really sad

So. Guess all is left for me now is to sit down and begin a new fanfic


There. Just have a Kaidan.
