you know how in the beginning of "us and them" by pink floyd someone says "i don't know, i was really drunk at the time"? obviously shepard left us a message!

Its funny because this theory actually makes sense.

Everything makes more sense when you're drunk.

Not only are you drunk, Shepard is also drunk, which means everything makes twice as much sense! FACT!


I'm curious, if James Vega is Shepard's hallucination of himself, what's the interpretation of Tali's drinking scene?

Personally I thought it was to do with Shepard facing his/her feminine side with a light cocktail, but then I noticed.. s/he doesn't sit down in that scene. There's a bar and Shepard didn't sit down at it. Maybe foreshadowing that s/he already got thrown out for having too much to drink? I don't know, I need some help from the masters here

[NamiraWilhelm]

I enjoy this theory. I hope bioware are listening.

Well, it could always be Imagination TheoryWell, it could always be Imagination Theory - Grandpa simply made up this whole thing as a good story to his grandchild. Of course, this is even worse than the actual ending, but at least it helps explain everything.

Why would a granpa tells his grandson a story with so much sex and violence? Unless he was drunk...

After reading this forum, I was inspired to make a video for Intoxication Theory so we can spread the word. Thanks to all for your lovely ideas to make this possible. I hope you enjoy!

Proof! Thanks for your work, gnfrwar!

[dorktainian]

well you'd have to be completely out your tree to write an ending like that and think it's any good.

Then again if Shep is drunk, does that also mean we are all intoxicated as well?

Just found this thread - all makes sense - and at last I understand the breath.

"Everthin ok, Ossifer?"
"Yeah. License and registration please."

ZOMG! Shep's "breath" is a symbolic scene representing a "breathalizer." That clinches it.

[Nostradamoose]

Guys... I got a revelation...

Vega is like the Tyler Durden (fight Club) of Shepard... IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW! It explains all the non sense about "His name was Marauder Shields"



Oh my sweet whisky, I've seen the light... Forgive those who do not follow your call!

[Leonia]

I have come to the realisation that Kaidan's "headaches" are actually a common symptom of being hung-over but the game makes you believe it is related to his biotic implants in an attempt to throw you off. What about all the other squad-mates? Why are none of Shepard's squad-mates anti-alcohol and how many times have they all tried to share drinks with their commanding officer? Are Shepard's friends encouraging alcoholism instead of trying to prevent it?

[Nostradamoose]

I found something else...

After leaving the geth consensus, talk to EDI...

She'll ask you how it was... Shepard will say : "It was mind-blowing but it left me a bit thirsty!"


O EM GEE!

MIND. BLOWN.

There is absolutely no other logical explanation for this but alcohol. Awesome catch.

[Solmanian]

But srsly, they still haven't explained how did shepard survived getting a heart attack from the poison drink in omega. You don't just "walk it off" a heart attack...

[balance5050]

Yep, I can always count on this thread to lighten the mood. LOL HAHA, good jokes here.

[Dreogan]

Whenever I'm frustrated with yet another "fans demand happy endings" news story, I come here to relax with the PARTY HARD gif in the OP.

It gives me strength.

Also proof of the intoxication theory.

I completely agree, Intoxication theory is so true and fact! There is so much evidence :DDDDD.

Imma go with rum.

Shepard is a cyborg, he can handle it.
His brain put him in a vegetative state in which he dreams his fight against the reapers. Plus, his liver is probably too overloaded anyway for the poison to make effect on it!

wow! that was incredible, i am adding it to the op right away, very good work!

[Nostradamoose]

So, Red, Blue or Green? which color should my drink be?

I'm doing my 2nd playthrough, just destroyed cerberus base.

[wheelierdan]

1 the first step is to admit you have a problem.
2 green, because robo skin looks cool;)

You should go for the mystery mix, if you can handle it.

[Keldaurz]

That even explains why my mako was bouncing like i was drunk.

Too many words?  Let this here picturebox do the work for you!

(summary of the theory, now with 100 percent more official youtube!)

only bioware has the artistic integrity to make an entire game a drunken hallucination.


game design document showing a martini glass. proof.

  an extended bender scene, why is it green, how does this scene tie into the ending?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qD8brVVQOQ

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLQpCSgN-lU ashely drunken proof
(is asheley real or just a part of shepards mind making sense of this new reality?)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjymkPW1XNs&feature=related  more proof that shepard is in fact drunk, but aria's role in this has not yet been discovered, maybe you have to beat insanity without drinking any booze?


Think about it guys, just how many times in the game has alcohol been present.  Off the top of my head I can think of the two bars on omega. the ships bar. drinking with the doctor. Tali getting drunk, Ashely getting drunk, implicating james vega was involved.  On the upper part of the citadel, you shoot... bottles!   Why are they shooting bottles instea dof drinking them, is garrus your sponsor? top of citadel = moral high ground.

What does all this mean?  What is bioware trying to say?!

It is my firm belief that mass effect 3 never happened. You see, theres a scene in the omega bar where a man gives you concotion and you awaken in an alley of vorcha.  now bioware made sure the vorcha talked about how they wanted to eat some fresh meat. why? why would they give us this clue.  They wouldnt, unless it meant something!


you always see mordin behind a counter, everytime you see him, a
counter? or a bar. because he is a bartender. he mixes shepard's drinks.
why? because someone else mgiht have gotten it wrong.

Why so many references to booze? what does it all mean?

I submit to you that the entirety of events that follow that moment are nothing more than the boozed fueled hallucinations of commander shepard.  if any of that happened the vorcha would have eaten shepard while he was passed out, obviously.  therefore it didn't.

I anxiously await the hangover dlc, so we can finally get these questions answered!

First of all this is NOT INDOCTRINATION THEORY. indoctrination theory is nothing but a bunch of people taking a
theme of the game and applying facts completely out of context to support a very unlikely idea.  We don't do that
here only facts!

edit:

why are there no fat people? beer googles.

why is it called a reputation BAR?

why are everyones eyes so glassy? because they are drunk.


crucible, galatic super weapon or alarm clock?

notice the colors of the booze in normandy's bar, red and blue. this clearly symbolizes shepards morality being affected by booze as the story continues.

Why do we never see tali's alleged straw, why would they leave out showing us the straw unless it was a clue that it wasnt real?  think about it.

red sand is a brand of alcohol that gets mentioned through out the games.

that volus guy, niftu cal, that guy was druuunk.

The Illusive Man smokes cigarettes, people often smoke cigarettes in... bars. bars where they drink... alcohol. it all makes sense.

Marauder Shields was a bouncer, trying to tell you that you've had enough. or was he part of shepards addiction not letting him leave (wake up)  you decide!

what about husks, cybernetic creatures or drunken patrons running away from something (what bioware tell us!) which makes more sense?! are they alcoholics trying to take your booze? Do they simply want to dance?



Hold the wine!

Because otherwise we'd have to accept that all those events actually happened, and that's enough to drive a man to drink.


Please share any clues i might have missed so we can piece this epic mystery together!

You have opened my eyes. Bioware has made an epic and timeless ending by going where no one else has gone before and at the same time, sending a message on the repercussion of drinking too much alcohol!
