I always feel like I'm the only one who understands the endings as they are. Probably because I know the difference between storytelling and artistic license. But who am I kidding; everyone's just so smart because they can pick apart every detail and connect all the dots that may or may not be there. Seems fitting though. People have grown away from the enjoyment of simplicity because over analyzing seems to be so much better, somehow.

I believe it is only a means to an end: retcon the current ending.
Whether I like it would depend on how the 'end' is handled or if it is handled at all; I don't really care about the means.

[AlanC9]

As a retcon, it could be made acceptable.... maybe. I don't see any way to make it into a good ending without adding a whole bunch more additional content, though.

[Maeson]

Whatever is done with the ending, I won't much care. Said it once, and will say it again: The imagination is a lovely thing to have. The story of your Shepard is also, kinda in a way, YOUR story. Ultimately how the story of Shepard ends is how you make it end. Everyone has probably, at one point or another, added or meddled in some form of fan fiction (character conversations, history etc). It doesn't have to be written down and posted on some forum, works just fine in your own head.

I don't want a theory, I want closure and and satisfying conclusion to 5 years of gaming. Working with the ending at all, instead of scrapping what happens after you walk into the beam thing is unnaceptable.

Indoctrination theory as well as the beings of light theory combine together to make for a potential redemption to the Mass Effect series. I like it.

[TheNexus]

I think it's really creative and fits in fairly well with what's presented. Although I doubt it was their intention to do it that way, I feel that somewhere in production they had a similar idea (before it was scrapped due to time, money, etc.) , and the pieces we see in the game are just relics from that process.

I think enough people like the idea enough that they should run with it. Even most of the people that don't like it can at least tolerate it. I personally think it would be an awesome thing to see implemented.

I don't like it as it is too bleak with the only glimmer of hope unachievable through SP alone.

The problem is that the literal version of the ending is so bad that IT is preferable.

[RobotMilk]

Yes I like it.

My best baseless, gut instincts, guess is that IT, or something very close to it, has always been the case, and that BW had the real, Last Temptation of Christ-esque, ending DLC planned from the get go.

My second guess is that they had originally planned to charge for the "real" ending DLC, but didn't think that the backlash to the current one would be so bad. They knew people would like a better ending, but they didn't think people would feel so cheeted with the ending that they got, so they had to expand it a little and offer it for free. Otherwise people (like me) would feel blackmailed into paying extra just to get the ending they deserve.

Like I said, just my gut. I may very well be very wronge, and I wouldn't be a bit surprised.

If it involves EA and Bioware, makes perfect sense...oh you mean ME3?

I have to agree even if I dislike the whole thing. It is prefereable unfortunately.

[Galbrant]

Yes I want the IT, along with the closure they're promising.

 I don't agree with that interpretation, but I support anyone's right to read the game how they seem fit.  It really should be all for fun anyway.  In other words, I don't agree with or even like it, but I would happily support anyone's right to believe it.

Thats why someone shot a Beetle, because they read into things that wearn't there.

I don't know why people keep going on about this theory when I've already dis-proven it, as stated in my topic 'Indoctrination theory debunked'.

If we have no hope, we have nothing

Kalle thats the same thinking helped Hitler take power in Germany during the 1930's, since it allows for the explotation of emotions which we all have.

As a dragon age fan who went through a very similar experience with the bad writing and the insulting of intelligence, you must all get past this and accept what has happened. Also as someone who knows of paranoia that it is obvious that many of you are building a false reality to protect your selves from the real one, and that real one is that bioware is not what it once was. It wasn't they're choice there was foreign influence cough*e.a.*cough. To reiterate please get over it and please find your sanity its not like you are playing Paranoia with your friends.

P.s. the dreams show that shep has a conciens and is regreatful that he couldn't save the kid and everyone else on earth. this is a common thing that when you regreat something that you would have nightmares reminding you of what happened which can be a heavy burden but one needed to move on and continue living your life.

two reasons i like:

1) it makes sense with the current lore

2) closure

How does IT provide "closure"?

I've been trying to figure this out for a while.

The IT theory I'm most familiar with claims that everything after Harbinger's beam was a dream....which means that Shepard has not dealt with TIM or the Reapers, which seems about as far from closure as we can get.

IT provides closure by being super awesome! All knell before the awesome and terrible might of IT!

IT or not the game doesn't since the writing is bad just like the ending.

I made my own video on what I think happened at the end.

28 mins duration though.  Not exactly great either
