The Reapers are trying to win your over and gty you to spare them when they've harvested entire worlds and expect you to die to let them live? Was there really any choice?

I dunno, I picked red without second thought.

I chose destroy just because I absolutely refused to follow the logic of the millions-of-years-old hoodie-wearing AI. I came to complete a mission and I did. Luckily it was all new to me so while I was taken aback at the time, and am still a bit depressed now, the scene I got of Shep breathing gives me hope in the Indoctrination theory.

Because causing the genocide of billions of innocents as collateral damage is unacceptable when there is another way.

Because you don't want the Geth and EDI to die? Because the Reapers can be put to a useful purpose? Because you want to ensure any possible war between Synthetics and Organics is prevented?


That said, all the endings pretty much suck.

I spent all that time getting the Quarians and the Geth to stop fighting, and Joker/EDI boning, and now I'm expected to just kill them off? **** that.

I worked hard to bring peace to the geth and to give edi her freedom. But i also value shepard's life. I was faces with 3 decisions that I did not want. I knew the normandy crew would be stranded far away from my shep (for some weird reason) so there was no reason to live without the people she cares about. She killed herself more than she sacrificed herself, I will say that.

Because I refuse to cause the Genocide of the Geth who I just redeemed in the eyes of Galactic civilization and EDI who has shown through her conversation to possess empathy for life and its struggles.

Violating every being in the galaxy's right to self-determinate is MUCH worse from my point of view.


And control doesn't destroy them, allowing them a chance to come back.

Yeah. But then the Mass Relays happen anyway. So instantaneous death of thousands, likely starvation of millions.

Honestly the "this kills the geth too" thing seemed like a forced negative side to what normally would be the obvious action. The other two involve the reapers continued existence, so there is always the threat they could return.

Cause I thought something was needed to try and help recreate the relays. What's better than those who supposedly created them. That's why I chose control.

Also I love the Geth and trust them more than any sentient race. They were betrayed by their creators for asking a question, tried to protect some of their masters while they still tried to eradicate the geth, chose not to exact revenge when the Quarians fled, chose not to assault the invading fleets until they opened fire, and chose to help the Quarians rebuild after all those injustices against them. I couldn't destroy them...

Because I just spent ME3 and ME2 trying to show that Edi, Legion, and the Geth are worth fighting for.  They are part of my crew and they are my friends.  And I just got Edi and Joker set up on a date.  So Im NOT going to push the big red button that kills them.  My Shep sacrifices herself first even though it will break her gorgeous Garrus' heart  /cry

Didn't like the idea of killing the Geth after establishing peace with the Quarians, and EDI after I convinced her that organics were pretty cool after all.

But it's the best option. I didn't want to become the thing I swore to destroy (Control), and I straight up rejected the idea of merging organics and synthetics together to suddenly make all the problems disappear like magic (Synthesis).

Like I said, that is the downside to both the alternatives, but it is only the second worst part of the Synthesis ending.

Violating every being in the galaxy's right to self-determinate and right to free will is straight up grotesque.

I picked red for Anderson.

And because I was pissed at Joker for the crap he pulled.

ROFL, ditto! I told the Quarians war with the Geth was ridiculous with Reapers on the horizon in ME 2. Not to mention the fact that I saved the Queen in ME 1, saved the cure in ME 2, rewrote the Geth in ME 2... None of my Shep's are keen to cause an ELE on another species without having a damn good reason. 

Too bad my Shep seems to have done that anyway, LOL!

Because picking anything other than green means you're damning Joker to die a virgin.

Picking green is really the most horrible choice possible.

I picked blue. It's the only way to provide eternal safety to the galaxy. Everyone should sort out their own business.

Destroy is the ONLY one that makes sense given the last two games.

The Reapers are an abomination of life. They're created from the massacre of trillions of souls, and they're created of all those dead people. They were the cycle of death that has plagued the galaxy for as  long as it goes back ... why would Shepard preserve that, even if he  controlled it? There's no guarantee it'd be that way forever. The  Reapers and their technology is amazingly evil ... it commits genocide,  indoctrinates and controls minds, and commits unspeakable abominations  upon organic life. I don't see how a Paragon Shepard wouldn't choose to rid the galaxy of them and destroy them and their tech once and for all.

It'd rid the galaxy of an unspeakable evil, the atrocities it had created, while giving the species of the galaxy their own future.

And keep in mind that Reaper tech was discovered by someone at  some point in time. It stands to reason that with the Reapers gone,  organic life would become an intergalactic civilization once again. It's just a matter of time. It'd eventually build back up, and this time without the Reapers and their masters.

People don't want to sacrifice the Geth, aparantly. I just assume everyone in my fleet knew the risks. EDI should already be willing to die to get our mission done.

Killing AI God-Kid was the deciding factor for me.

The genius starchild said so, by destroying synthetics you're only postponing the inevitable, somebody somewhere someday will build AI again.

I picked red because throughout the entire series Shepard reiterates "Destroy the Reapers". I hate that Edi might be dead and the Geth, but the Reapers HAD to be destroyed.
That being said though, I'm still pushing for other endings and hoping the indoctrination idea is valid because I'm dying for my Shepard to take a breath, stand up on her feet and curb stomp the living hell out of Harbiner. >=3
