Looks like joker is trying pretty desperately to outrun a significant blast wave in all three endings. Ending led me to believe that every system with a relay in it was also destroyed. The only survivors remaining are those in neighboring systems within a ships FTL range.

Uuum yeah, incase you didn't get it. Everyone is dead. The galaxy is wiped for a restart so that everybody can start anew with the lessons learned. There's no sense in Shepard's sacrifice when everything just stays the same after these events. You need to change people's mentality and way of thinking and doing that with so many people is impossible.

What's the point in wiping all tech when the scientists, knowledge and manufacturing facilities are still there? In a short amount of time everything would be back to 0.

What's the point of Shepard controlling the Reapers when the Reapers were trying to accomplish something? Maybe the galaxy would require some time to recover from the war but after a while everything would be back to 0 and he would still need to send in the Reapers.

Mistakes were made, lessons were learned and the galaxy gets a new chance to start over to do it right this time.

If you look at the size of the shockwaves and the overlap of the shockwaves then it's pretty clear the whole galaxy got wiped out. One shockwave propegates over an immense area in a matter of seconds. That would mean it carried an immense amount of force at the center, enough to completely destroy anything that stands in it's path.

Because uniting the galaxy, bringing peace to everyone, ending the genophage, and restoring the Quarian homeworld was doing it wrong?

Also, in the Synthesis ending, why would the blast wave destroy the Normandy? Everything else it touched was fine.

Unfortunate carbon-copy ending.

For myself, the ending goes completely awry at the point that the assault team sets down for the final battle and Harbinger shows up.. Big question. Where was the Normandy?? In ME2 the Normandy's guns took out a collector ship 500 times larger than any reaper. In two shots!. where was the Normandy. You want real endings? Get the normandy in there clearing the path for Shep and his team. Normandy could have spit and taken out Harbinger. It wouldnt even need full power.
However, from that point on, Shep has an extremely good chance of living. Imagine, an ending where Shep lives, all the relays are intact and people have the chance to rebuild, as with any war mankind has ever waged.
You want grim? great, go join the Marines or Seals or Army. The ending to this game has absolutely no reality to it. If Shep dies, he's the lucky one, because its the survivors who have to deal with starting over, with finding and burying their dead. Shep copps out. Like moses at the border of caanan, he can see the promised land but cant enter it, so he dies. what a coward.
I am sorry. I know most of you are simply naive. youve never been to war. You couldnt understand if you had too, but please throw those of us who have been there a little bone and grant us a knod for knowing what we're talking about..

Only when it is overloaded while the rings are spinning and containment is on the dark energy / element zero core. That particular relay also had special Dark Energy reserves for long-range jumping that only the Alpha Relay could do.

That's very different.

In the scene in ME3, the rings stopped spinning, containment was not breached but disabled, and the systems were merely overloaded in a basic format not a cataclysmic format.

Oh great, Fan-fiction to explain the ending of Mass Efflect 3.

Kudos good sir.
