At the same time, I also believe in and
support the artistic choices made by the development team. The team and
I have been thinking hard about how to best address the comments on
ME3’s endings from players, while still maintaining the artistic
integrity of the game.
It seems they are set on not altering canon (whatever the heck that is with this convoluted ending), so it seems that the star-child sequence actually happens, somehow. Is our best case then that it happens in Shepard's mind and the epilogue is him waking from the indoctrination.
If not, then it would seem the only epilogue that could have Shepard as the playable character would be the destroy ending with >4000 EMS. Otherwise, we'd just get some sort of eulogy for Shepard. Even if you consider Shepard lives despite his EMS for the destroy option, it seems that Shepard is irrevocably gone to the world through synthesis and control options. Do those players not got an epilogue?
It seems that if the content is epilogue in nature (which Ray's words seem to confirm), then the ending doesn't truly convey what happened (indoctrination) and they must remove "speculation from everyone" for the sake of having a cohesive narrative, or the epilogue simply doesn't contain Shepard.
Thoughts?
