1) Take control of reapers
2) Make them carve "I love you Tali" In to the moon with Lasers
3) Fly them all into the sun

Hard to punch Joker in the gut like that, but it had to be done, even by my Shep; a Shep so paragon he got the Illusive Man to kill himself.

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


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.


If s/he's really worried about that posibility, Shepard could just tell the Reapers to fly into the nearest black hole or something. It's not like we know where the Reapers are going in that ending.

 Precisely why I believe the starchild is lying when he says it will kill all synthetic life including the Geth and Shepard. He was lying to make Shepard have doubts about killing the Reapers and Starchild.

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


Such is the penalty for desertion.

I wish I could've just walked out. I would rather have the Reapers kill us than any of the endings given, if it would instead provide some sense of closure.

The Catalyst doesn't state for how long Shepard takes control of the Reapers, therefore it is safe to assume that it is indefinite.

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


Why would you believe anything that genocidal little mongrel had to say, HE IS BEHIND THE REAPERS AND THE CYCLE!

One of the main reasons the endings suck so hard, Shep's just like, "Oh well, fvck it, I'm not even going to argue with reaper godkid, time to push the give up button, destroy galactic civilization, and get myself killed."

1) Take control of the Reapers.

2) Go find the freaking Normandy. Someone has to know what relay it was traveling through, and relays have finite destinations. (since the space between relays is by necessity empty, there's only one place to go if it was a primary relay (since we know they landed on a planet, and Shep would probably have the Reapers fly the same paths the Normandy could've taken just in case they ended up in interstellar space), perhaps a few thousand (a few Reapers to check each system)  if it was a secondary relay)

3) Become the benevolent friendly neighborhood god AI, rebuild the mass relays.

4) Pass the time by taking Avina's job, respond with "WE MUST DEPART" in a booming reaper voice when someone asks an awkward question.

4) Have scientists find a way to build an avatar for you that isn't a freakish mass of reanimated cybernetics.

5) call your LI...

6) ???

7) Profit!!!



suusuuu: I was pretty damn sure that Shepard essentially replace the catalyst in that ending.

Amen to that.

Go down swinging while trying to find another option. Right after punching that genocidal little monster in the nuts.

I went towards the destroy path, turned around, shot the kid just for good measure and than shot the power conduit the whole way, just to make sure i don't miss and slip stumbling into the other two endings.

Because the geth and edi deserve to live as much as any one else.

I actualy really like the controll ending cause its a good ending to my main shepard.

I always considerd him the "negotiator" and it just fits for him

I would rather let Shepard die than kill EDI and the Geth.

I went with the Synthesis ending because it is somewhat easier to believe that all of the problems that are brought up by the ending (like everyone being trapped in Sol) will just sort of work themselves out now that they are made of magic.

AI is not evil. The Starchild assumes that AI will always kill its creators... yet we already have two examples of this NOT happening: the Geth and EDI.

And even if AI do become belligerent, how is that any different from two groups of organics going to war with each other? Why do the Reapers care about synthetics killing organics, but organics killing other organics is just fine?

The logic of Starchild just doesn't fly with me. Either he was deliberately written poorly, or it was poor writing. Destroying him and his Reaper toadies is the best option.

You have a point, but (if you have the DLC) you'll have a conversation with Javik where he clearly states that this cycle repeats in the same way every time - BEFORE the Reapers show up. Meaning that regardless of the Reapers, organic life creates synthetic life, synthetic life revolts against their creators, all heck breaks loose, then the Reapers show up to pour salt in the wound, LOL!

He's very clear about this, Javik that is. Just as he clearly does not agree with Shep attempting to do anything beyond the total annihilation of all synthetic life. Javik's really not a fan of EDI or the Geth, LOL!

Because this:

Plus EDI.

The fusion of organic and synthetic life really is the finally evolution. That's one thing I can agree with the Catalyst on.

I think this is a tolerable ending. But with some obvious adjustments (filling in those plot holes) it could have been a lot better.

Yep. Also no problem in "bulilding avatar" since Reaper tech was used to build EDIs new body, as Reaper you can build even more advanced "mobile platform" which will be retty much indentical to your old body.

And with it, you can ride around galaxy on Harbinger back,  while wearing cowboy hat.

Controlling the Reapers is also a screw you, since, assuming you BECOME the new Catalyst, you don't have to use the Reapers for the original Catalyst's plan.

So you went with violating every being in the galaxy's right to self-determinate?

Isn't that exactly what Legion said the true Geth were against, and why the didn't join Nazara?

All I could think about was my LI, Tali. We'd brokered the peace, and the Quarians were being helped by the Geth in ways that would put things right in years, not centuries. The fact that Legion sacrificed himself to give the Geth sentience.. I just couldn't do it.

I took the plunge.

Lol, because the destroy ending doesn't do anything. The cycle continue, all you do is delay the inevitable. At least the synth ending gives some hope for the future.

Yea, my Shepard managed to broker a peace between the Geth and the Quarians.

The only recorded conflicts in his cycle between synthetics and organics were between the Geth and the Quarians (started by the organics), and the Geth and The Citadel Races (started by the Reapers corrupting the Geth).

Hmmmmmm.....

You'll forgive my Shep for not jumping to the same conclusions.

ACTUALLY easily enough, Shepard could ASSUME CONTROL of someone really hot and continue their romance with their love interest xp

I didn't sacrifice Wrex, Grunt, Eve, and the entire krogan species just to negate the vague chance that they might do a Krogan Rebellions 2: Electric Boogaloo.

I'm not going to sacrifice EDI, the geth, and Legion's legacy just to negate the vague chance that the Reapers might come back and chance a second Reapening.

And if the Reapers do come back, at least this time we'll be prepared.

(I went with the Synthesis ending my first time around and I hated it. Forced evolution of all life? No one gets a say? What the hell.)
