And even in November the gameplay team was still experimenting with an endgame sequence where players would suddenly lose control of Shepard's movement and fall under full reaper control. (This sequence was dropped because the gaemplay mechanic proved too troublesome to implement alongside dialogue choices).
This. would have been. ****ing awesome.

I believe the Crucible/Citadel/Catalyst did its work, regardless of Shepard's decision. Shepard never entered the beam, never talked to Anderson and TIM on the Citadel, never talked to the kid and never decided anything - since it all happened only in his/her mind, symbolizing the struggle between free will and indoctrination.
The Crucible/Citadel could not work, if no one ever reached the beam. Shepard was knocked out before they could reach it, which triggered the final indoctrination attempt by the Reapers. A last ditch attempt to save themselves.

Q: What did you think of the ending? Is this addressed in the story?
A: I've seen the uproar
online about the ending and understand the fan perspective. Personally I
respect the creative choices the team made and had no problems with how
the story ended -- it made you feel something, even if that feeling was
uncomfortable.
The Final Hours addresses the challenges BioWare faces
in writing a story with defined parameters in a game environment where
players want to feel like they have choice. Ultimately your opinion on
the ending will depend on who you see as the "author" of Mass Effect's
story -- BioWare or the player.
The ending of the game is discussed in the App and
there are some notes from the team about how they were thinking about
the ending. Since this story was completed before the public release of
the game, I do not address the fan petitions or reaction. I hope to
update the story with a new chapter on this down the road.

Which is exactly why I think it was intended as a dream sequence even then. Two of the most popular characters, both of them LI's (Liara even from the first game!), getting cut down by Harbinger? I don't buy it. I don't think they would've done that. Thane's death was unavoidable but we knew from the beginning it was going to happen and he went out a great hero as he should. His death had purpose and the galaxy was the better for his last actions. Ditto for Mordin. We knew he was about to drop dead of old age and his (avoidable I might add, even if only under very specific and crappy circumstances) death cured the genophage. He couldn't have gone out with a more awesome end. There's no meaning to the deaths that are described there. Nothing would change if Garrus and Liara were just on the Normandy having a drink and talking about the good old days instead of getting char-broiled. That would have greatly, greatly angered a lot of fans.

Well that's it. I thought the indoctrination theory was awesome. Now I'm full of doubt again.
Not happy.

Dude, theres still hope!
On Deciding the End of the Game
The illusive man boss fight had been scrapped... but there was still much debate. On night walters scribbled down some thought on various ways the game could end with the line "Lots of speculation for Everyone!" at the bottom of the page.
And even in November the gameplay team was still experimenting with an endgame sequence where players would suddenly lose control of Shepard's movement and fall under full reaper control. (This sequence was dropped because the gaemplay mechanic proved too troublesome to implement alongside dialogue choices).

IF they pull this off... if they release some kind of expansion with a different ending... I will be Bioware's money slave forever.
