First post here. Just finished the game yesterday, picked the destroy ending. About the endings, I did not absolutely hate them, but there is no denying it had more plot holes than my backside alley. Some of them seemed absolutely indefensible to me.
1. How in the darkest hell does Shepard survive being fried by Harby's laser? sometime before the last charge, we see a turian being lazed and he disintegrates before he could move a muscle. While shepard survives almost intact. O.o
2. Why does Shepard meekly accepts every BS the starchild throws at her? That kid replies "no you can't" when she says they incline to keep their present form. My ruthless Shepard would have never taken that rebuke lying down. She seemed to be drugged or something, unable to think clearly. She just went along everyone that kid said
She even said "i don't know" at the synthesis suggestion, wtf? She is fighting all along the three games for the exact opposite and just says "I don't know" when suggested to do that? My Shepard would have got a renegade interrupt right there, which would have involved throwing the kid into the destroy node. It's like Ezio being asked to kill an innocent child and he replies: "are you sure?"
3. I tried all the endings, in all of them she starts off limping, and when she reaches the end she magically recovers? This one is so blatant it's hard to believe Bioware didn't do this intentionally. Its as if she was pretending to be limping and suddenly decides to stop acting. In the synthesis ending she even breaks into a full-scale run! How can someone who is hit by a freaking Reaper (and the leader of the reapers nonetheless) laser, couldn't walk properly two seconds ago is now sprinting like a marathon runner!
3. The destroy ending clearly SHOWS Shepard being engulfed in flames. How can someone survive that explosion is beyond me, yet she survives again, and what's more her armour, again, is mostly intact (as it was before the explosion)
4. If the Catalyst was sitting on the Citadel controlling the reapers wtf was all the Saren drama in ME1 for?
All these plot holes seem almost deliberate. Even a kid of the age of the starchild can see them, its hard to believe Bioware would leave them unattended. This is why i believe IDT, or any other alternative theory, has merit. After making 2.99 brilliant games, you just don't off your brainz and make a BS ending. And that too with such glaring plot holes. This seems more unbelievable to me than IDT. Even if you run out of time/resources, or want "lots of speculations for everyone!" you would at least try to cover up the holes as much as possible. Here Bioware seems to be proudly showcasing them. Just when we think we had enough holes, here comes another.. and another!
I'm doing another playthrough now, would look for the hints mentioned in this thread
