No. After all they included a similar thing in ME2 with the "everyone dies"-ending.
As long as the resulting failure is the obvious result of my actions, I'm fine with not winning. I would start to have problem with it if the connection between action and result isn't clear; for example a seemingly trivial choice, or one that doesn't seem to be directly connected to whatever I'm not succeding at, comming back to bite you in the posterior can easily become frustrating instead of invoking a "Wow, something I do matters in this railroad?"-feeling.

Conrad Verner takes the bullet... at least two of my Shepards are screwed...

^Also Turian Hierarchy and Batarian Hegemony get their ass kicked as well at the same time as Alliance.

Also isn't that weird, the whole series your concerned with the galaxy and now all of a sudden it seems your main focus is saving Earth, not as grand a scale as the original concept.

My personal guess is that the Reapers set up shop on Earth and use it as their main base, and that this is the reason why we're focusing on Earth.

Why would they do this, you ask? 11 billion human civilians ready to be juiced and Reaperized, I reply.

I believe that the Reapers have specifically chosen earth/human race because we are the most advanced. I'm paraphrasing here, but it's basically the reason why humans were being harvested to make the human-reaper.

I'm at a stump here because gathering all these humans can allow them to recreate the human-reaper. So yes, it makes sense to make Earth their HQ. However, as RWill pointed out, the ultimate goal is to wipe out the galaxy. It doesn't make sense to me that the Reapers target Earth specifically either. They can target any other system/planet first and still be successful. In fact, it would be smarter to do that since Shepard is on Earth where he is presumably confined until the trial is over.

Reapers harvest Earth's potential allies first and then go in to harvest the humans who will have no other races protecting them.

Better to kill the giant before awakening it, look at what happened to the Japanese Empire after they awoke the giant..

As some small time after Pearl Harbor the Japanese admiral in charge even said that he feared all they accomplished was to awaken a giant.

True, but I don't think humans are the most powerful species in the galaxy. Sure they might be the most dominant population in the galaxy but their military is nothing special imo.

Good point, but if the Reapers can assimilate any species at will, why not go after the Krogans first. Of course with Wrex being the head man on Tachonka it is extremely unlikely, yet it Wrex didn't surive the first game and Harbinger tells the Krogan they can cure the genophage. The Krogan already had the galaxy trembling once, now they are backed by the Reapers. That's a force I wouldn't want to see on the battlefield, no matter what species I was.

I think it was in some outtakes or was some extended dialoge, but i heard some where that harbinger says, Krogan-"sterile, potential wasted.", Turian-" considered to primative.", Drell-"useless.", Asari-"too weak.", Salarian-" life span to short.", and that humans were the only Species that were technologicaly evovled enough and the only ones who had a long, but not to long life span and were mainly concentrated on 1 planet. easy pickings and they're new to the galaxy so not every other species will help them fit.

If your Shepard is a complete failure this should be one of the endings.
