 ...Are RARE.

If i suspend all disbelief for a moment that the Normandy was even in flight at the end and crash lands - the fact that it magically crash lands on a Garden Planet of all things blows my mind.

Chances are it would have been a gas giant that would have crushed the Normandy with it's gravitational forces on entry to the atmosphere.

So damn confused at this point lol. :unsure:

Shepard imagined it. The circumstances are up for debate (dying, unconscious, indoctrinated), but that's really the only logical conclusion. His mental state went wonky either after collapsing onto the elevator or being hit by Harbinger's beam (the latter being more likely since we see him awaken in London).

So then by that reasoning we all failed anyway?

If you take the ending as stand alone as everything else is just conjecture at this point, we can't assume that at all.
Oh look we just managed to crash on a planet we had a 1 in 20 million chance of crashing on (of course I made that probability up I have no idea what the slim chance would be).

It was obviously thrown together for sake of having anything there. It was pulled from the cutting room floor and tacked on.

The normandy is running away from the final battle isn't explained at all, nevermind with potentially dead crewmates on board and alive again, nevermind with a magic green beam of... magic... possibly morphing everyone into robot hybirds, for some reason that isn't well explained.

The odds of a spaceship being dropped out of FTL transit within range of a known garden world is so impossibly rare that it goes from implausible to silly.

Its better than having the Normandy crew die, but I hate the ending either way.

Garden planet with suspiciously earthlike vegetation and breathable air.

people say it's Eden Prime because they found a picture of it on Deviant Art made by one of the Mass Effect artists (don't remember where the thread was but the picture shows EDI and Joker stepping out of the Normandy looking happy)

even then, that doesnt really make sense ... where the heck is Eden Prime anyway? was it even in the Sol System? (or whatever it was called)

maybe they all died and went to Heaven...? i dont know lol

I'm just amused by how ridiculous some of the conclusions become if you attempt to logically evaluate them with the given data. Genuinely amused at this point.

Pretty sure this was a plot device to ensure Vega lives on for a new series.

Just blows the mind.

It's a vision given by Harbinger to placate an addled Shepard's mind.

I disagree, I definitely think that there was room for an incredibly bleak ending. But at least do it all the way then - Normandy crew dies because they're in the wrong time and place fine.

Rare planet is rare. Not moderately unlikely.

P.S. I wouldn't want them to really die, I hate the ending in so many ways. This just struck me as yet another absurdity we have been subjected to.
