Since I didn't read trough all those comments, it is very likely that other people have already mentioned this, but I'm going to say that myself anyway, I just hope it's not too late.
In my opinion, at least the second part of the whole London mission is rushed if not incomplete.
My questions are: What are my teammates doing other than the two I can bring with me?
Why can't I bring all of them, or why isn't the whole thing is done like the Collector Base in ME2?
It would be great to see how they all fit in, the whole thing just doesn't make any sense!
What the hell are our teammates doing?
Harbinger is mentioned troughout the game, he allegedly lead the Reapers durning the invasion of Earth, on Rannoch the reaper says Harbinger speaks of Shepard, in London Anderson says that Harbinger and some others are breaking off from the fight and are headed to the Conduit. Yet we only see a reaper that RESEMBLES Harbinger in the last 3 minutes, there is no big bossfight with him, no epic battle, no epic conversation, nothing!
This whole "Run to the Conduit" scene is almost identical to the ending of Mass Effect 1 (just like the suicide of TIM).
When Shepard wakes up, there's nobody near him. All right he's half dead and all, but what happened to his immediate squadmates? How could Anderson follow him trough the beam if he was nowhere near him?
And about that control room. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO IT. How could Anderson get to it?
Yes I can see that there are many rooms like the one you end up in, all around, they also have bridges that connects them to... SOMETHING, but there is clearly NO ANY OTHER WAY to the control panel... so how did Anderson beat you? Also, we know that TIM made it to the Citadel (the prothean VI tells you), but if all around there's only butcher rooms, and no other ways in, how did he magically appear right behind you? If at least he was waiting for you and Anderson in the control room when you get there together... Also, why would the beam lead directly too a butcher room that directly leads to the control panel? IT MAKES NO SENSE. In fact, the whole game makes no sense since at least the second part of the London mission!
Also, have you guys noticed that this particular area of the CItadel, and the Catalyst chamber as well, is filled with big pilons or pillars with yellow signs that say '1M1' ? This is supposed to be an area of the Citadel that nobody knows of, why are there human letters PRINTED (not tagged or something) on pillars there?
Plus, wasn't Citadel main control supposed to be in the Council Chamber??? In ME1 Saren tried to activate the Citadel Relay from there, and since Sovereign was controlling him, you would think he sent Saren to some VIP area....
Anyways, what's up with the 1M1 signs all around???? You can even find panels that look like panels on the Normandy. This whole thing supports the Indoctrination Theory.
But if that is the case, you still have to tell me what are my teammates doing when we leave the FOB?
They fight. All right. Where? What do they do? They are leading other teams? Why don't they mention it?
What is their mission? If we all want to destroy that Reaper destroyer and go trough the Conduit then why won't they simply come with me as a big happy team?
If the indoctrination theory is NOT true, then why would Joker flee from battle? The blast clearly didn't kill people on Earth, why won't he stay on Earth if the reapers are defeated? How did he manage to get my teammates??
I respect artistic freedom and all, but I can't simply understand how any of you could think that people would be satisfied with this ending the way it is. EA was probably hard on you, rushing you to finish the game, but you could have asked the fans somehow to tell EA to stand down, I don't think even them could whitstand the combined attacks of millions. Or maybe the ending is outrageous so you could convince EA to let you revise the whole thing?
Either way I have no idea how could you say
"You can't really say how many endings there are because they are so different, it's not like you get A, B, or C, it's really diverse." WHEN WE GOT A-B-C CHOICE WHERE ONLY THE COLOUR is different?
