I don't know if it has been mentioned but have you noticed that there are dark blurry corners at the end of the cutscene suggesting it's at least a dream...? (Even when Jokers comes out of the normandy).

Do you think its some sort of clue?


you're right.. just rewatched it and there are some dark shadows in the corners.. never noticed that

Definetly strange, gives kinda an impression that you are not there but looking through a window or similar...

Dude... I just watched a vid of the Synthesis ending...

the dark corners we're talking about totally match the "dream transition".. you know when the screen gets white.. there are the same dark corners

and even weirder: Look at the synthesis vid.. Now what is that? http://youtu.be/TNrPTeK_6lk?t=38s

I chose that image specifically so no one can say it's caused by the sun.

In all endings we see the same thing, this is Shepard believing he has saved at least some of his squad, his/her imagination so to speak, but it's not his/her vision, it's one that's been placed in his mind to make him/her feel better, the struggle is over, or is it?

And this is a thing that you just CAN'T explain with laziness, especially the last part with your crew. Someone deliberately applied that dream effect to the scene.

Because it's a cinematic event.

I just watched a couple of random cutscenes and the effect is in EVERY ONE. Even in the bossfight with Kai Leng which was pure gameplay.

Because it's used in cinematic events, it cannot be used as proof of IT.

The game has it all the way through.
Its called vignetting, and it exists to give you a more cinematic experience.

well.. I guess it could be there to show the constant Reaper influence throughout the entire game.. means there's always Harby in the background trying to indoctrinate him.. but I gotta admit that's a big stretch.. a shame, this could have been big :(

Just like someone DELIBERATELY added that same thing to the Reaper vs Karlos scene above.

This same effect is in many scenes around the game. This does not strengthen or weaken the IT.

I'm going to stick by the destroy console being a representation of Harbinger for now, it's the most compelling in my opinion.

Then you should be seeing it outside of cinematic events, which we do not.
