I honestly don't see why so many people hate the ending of this game... In my eyes, it was a master piece. Shepard gets nearly vaped by Harbinger, and is lucky to be alive. His other squadmates were picked up by the Normandy so they can assit in the battle (how else can you explain them getting on the Normandy for the final cinematic). Shepard wakes up at an un-known time after being nearly vaped, and gets to the citadel, has a BRILLIANTLY written scene with the Illusive man and Anderson. Shep is forced to shoot his friend, and you then have the oppotunity to kill the Illusive man before he kills Anderson.
The Crucible is linked to the Citadel, and Shepard talks to a Synthetic, who believes the only way to save Organics is by killing advanced synthetic and organic races. Think about that. The Synthetic that controls the reapers, is killing organics, just like he said all advanced synthetics do. I just love that fulfillment right there.
Now you have a choice, and you HAVE to choose. Because, this is the ONLY way to beat the reapers. You can not defeat the repears conventionally. They outnumber everyone, even combined, it is clear that they grealy out number every other fleet. They have to work so hard just to kill 1 reaper, let alone thousands. There is no way, even combined, that galatic forces can beat the reapers. It can not be done, the races are just fighting back JUST hard enough to buy time for Shepard to find a way to beat them. Is this a plot device? Yes. Does it make sense? Yeah (except for synthesis, that one really doesn't make sense). Both the Paragon and Renegade options are failsafes, probably put in place by the original race that made the reapers, in case the catalyst (or AI controlling the reapers) went out of control, which it obviously did.
So you make your choice, and you have to live with the consequences. Now, here's my thinking. The Normandy was NOT in a mass relay when the explosion hti it. To me, it looked like it was in FTL. And I am sure someone will eventually find the Normandy. No matter which option you pick, every race has PLENTY of FTL capable ships. The destruction of the mass relays isn't an apocalypse, it's merely the destruction of a technology made to direct the growth of various species so the Reapers could predict the level of technology they would have to deal with. Life will go on in the galaxy. The Normandy will eventually be found. There are only so many places they could be realtive to earth if they used FTL. And, if Shepard lives, (which he does if you have a high enough EMS), you can be certain he will not rest till he finds the Normandy.
And this ending doesn't contradict ME1. I have heard some people complain that if the Catalyst is the citadel, then why would Sovereign need to be there. Simple, the catalyst was dormant. The Catalyst probably only activates if there is a problem and the Reapers need guidance on what to do. It's pretty clear that the reapers are self sufficient. They know their orders. They don't need to be controlled every second of everyday. So, the crucible docking to the Citadel activated the Catalyst, AND altered it's programming, allowing Shepard to activate its failsafes with out confrontation.
Forgive any spelling mistakes, I just can't comprehend why people hate this ending so much. This isn't supposed to be a happy ending, there isn't suppose to be one. The Galaxy as we know it just about came to an end. There is no happy way to end a somber story like that. But there is HOPE. The civilizations CAN rebuild with FTL. It will just take a lot longer since they don't have mass relays. Shepard will find the Normandy again. The Reapers, one way or another, will no longer threaten the galaxy.
That's how I view this ending.
I'd love to believe this. But you are leaving out something very important, and that is Shepard's waking up in a pile of concrete and rebar. The breath he took as he awoke was the type of breath you do when waking up from a nightmare.
