Yeah... everything blew up. All technology gone. But like the little AI said, it will be rebuilt. It will be different but you  can't expect a galaxie wide invasion to end like nothing happened. Mass relays can be rebuilt. Ships will fly again. Who knows maybe even soon enough to rescue Cmdr Shepard. And if the commander lives, you can be sure the Normandy will be rescued.

That is the only thing that bothers me really. It should have crashed on earth. I mean it was like right next to the initial explosion. Unless joker like broke off the battle and made a run for it like a coward? Not his style.

I like Critical Mission Failure ending more than "happy" one.

But the very fact that you have to try and rationalize (what's called 'head-canon') your characters into being saved and the galaxy into being rebuilt indicates a massive lack of closure. If I ended a trilogy of novels with 95% of the main characters in a desperate situation that my readers just have to imagine them out of, I would be the crappiest writer in all of history. I don't have anything terribly much nicer to say about these endings.

Can't expect a galaxy wide invasion to end like nothing happened? Wasn't the trillions of lives killed enough? Maybe sacrificing the citadel? No? Oh okay...

BioWare is hiring! ;-)

I'd buy them.

I think I agree with this.

Especially if Shephard ragdoll looks like he tripped.

Get used to it.
This crap finally made out of TV series LOST, and probably will be done everywhere from now on.

Happy isn't the big problem. Granted SOME happiness would be nice.

Its the nonsensical BS that ruins it. Machines coming to kill civilization so they dont go to war with machines? What?

The normandy in the middle of the biggest fight of all time is fleeing through a mass relay. Somehow it gets blown up by a wave of crap (one of which is merely to CONTROL reapers, like WTF!). To top it off my party members that charged the beam with me somehow got evacuated and on the normandy (basically impossible) especially in 10 minutes.

An option where everything turns into half man, half machine? I actually burst out laughing when I saw how bad they jumped the shark on that one. Then cried because the franchise was ruined.

Thats just scratching the surface.

This made no sense to me as well. When did Mass Effect get Star Trek transporters?

1) If you destory the reapers you just killed EDI and the Geth as well, in the process you may survive.
2) You synthesis you die. (BTW I do not belive in space magic) 
3) You control them you die(TIM is rolling in his grave)
4) No matter what huge amounts of people die. Earth will have limted resources,but has possibly many armies and races.  A huge war or starvation is almost unavoidable, maybe if you picked 1 Shepard might be able to hold peace, but since you have to have a good war rating the armies will be larger, and will put a bigger strain on the resources.  Some of the colonies may starve since they cannot recive aid. 
Happy is not what I would use to describe the ending, I get what you are saying ,but you are assuming a great deal.  I know I am assuming about Earth, but I feel there is no way Earth could supply enough food.  It basically just went through Fallout minus radiation, but replaced by many armies.

Not to mention the turians and quarians stranded on Earth would pretty much starve immediately, or as soon as their rations run out, because they cannot process levo-protein based food. Earth presumably wouldn't naturally produce dextro-protein safe food and certainly not it large enough quantities.

I could be wrong though, I'm not 100% on the whole levo/dextro diet thing
