I chose synthesis, One reason I did not choose destroy is because The starchild basically said the process would start all over again and there would be basically be no force to keep synthetic life from destoying all biological life. I kept thinking that in a fit of blind guilt the Quarians would make a new AI based off of the Reaper left on Rannoch and then your right back to square one. Synthesis makes us all equal no BS not pettiness, besides destruction invalidates everything I told EDI and everything I did for the Geth.

I chose destroy.

Here is why:

Control: How can I control the Reapers if I'm dead. Supposedly, this option will kill me, so this makes no sense even as its presented.

Synthesis: Jump into a giant laser at the say so of a Reaper? What, are you effing nuts?

Destroy: The plan all along. The kid just told me he created the Reapers. Assuming thats true, he's either the Reaper leader, like he says, or their Creator. So, since he's a Reaper, everything he says is suspect, in my opinion. Me, EDI, and the Geth will have to die, to eliminate all Reapers? SOLD. Also, he's an effing liar, which I could tell as soon as his lips started moving. EDI and the Geth are probably fine. I took a breath for sure.

Yep, nothing like removing all diversity and forcing everyone to conform to a genocidal maniacs idea of racial purity and evolutionary perfection for a happy ending eh? I mean thats the only way to prevent bigotry and intolernce in real life, forcing everyone to be the same, because diversity is totally a weakness, and no two different groups can ever coexist, and never have.

And it's not like anyone will evolve down divergent paths now, because Evolution is totally a straight line, from bad to good everyone is heading for the same end result with, right?

And no one could possibly build a new AI either from purely mechanical parts that everyone still has the knowledge and means to create or a build techno-organic one, that would be just as likely to freak out and see everyone else as a threat.

Frankly synthesis is an appallingly bad message for Bioware to be promoting as their 'perfect' ending, as well as displaying their complete ignorance on so many scientific fields, while giving no explanation at all for how it works (not least of all because it's completely impossible) that I'm insulted by its inclusion in the game. It's just abhorrent and retarded

I chose destroy(I think) because control is just nuts, and synthesis is not only completely nonsensical, but actually evil

Control just keep the mass murdering toys left. Hackett was correct when he said that dead Reapers are how we win this. Synthesis is forever a no in my books, changing people forever into something else without their acknowledgement is for me on of the biggest crimes you can do. That leaves destruction left and i'm good with that. It's payback time for everything they've ever done.. die you sons of biitches!

Mostly because during my first play through I had no idea whether Control or Synthesis would even work. Destroy seemed to be the only guaranteed way for me to stop the Reapers and save lives.

Reapers sought my destruction, so I sought the Reapers destruction to prevent mine.

I picked destruction initially because the other choices didn't seem sensible in that situation. Control the Reapers? The Illusive Man already showed me how well that was going to work. Synthesis? Isn't that what the Reapers were trying to do to us with husks? Isn't that what their image of "uplifting" mankind to the highest level of evolution was? There was no choice really but to finish what I originally set out to do.

With the destruction option, against that there was only the Starchild saying that Geth and other forms of AI would be destroyed too, but it didn't seem likely at that point, or at least was far more worth the risk. I was left wondering how something that was built millions of years ago would have some kind of a direct hotline to eradicate what the Quarians built some hundreds of years ago. While it might be possible, I did not see the connection at the time.

Same as you. Destroying the Repears was always the goal, so why change in the last 5 minutes.

This is very much what I believe. Only destroying the Reapers will break the circle forever, both of the other options just feel wrong for me. Only a dead Reaper is a good Reaper:devil:

 IIRC it was the only ending that shows the breath scene if you have 5000+ EMS and also because it seemed truly like the best option, I mean throughout the whole game you see important people being killed off for the greater good (hopefully) and so I figure the Geth and EDI wouldn't mind being ended to support the well-being of the rest of the galaxy for the rest of time. Artificial Life is hinted at that it can be rebuilt by organic life, which kinda puts the greese on the gear for me even if it means the death of a race and EDI.  Ends justify the means I suppose.

I originally chose the Destroy ending for one reason: Shepard completes her mission. What was her mission? Destroy the reapers at any cost. Period. She didn't unify the galaxy to have tea and crumpets with them. Anderson told her the only way this thing ends is with dead reapers. Anderson is her superior officer. She may be a spectre, but with the council toast, she's Alliance military.

Besides synthesis was an abomination. Control? TIM? Never even crossed my mind about indoctrination. These two endings didn't complete the mission as assigned.

Then she got the breath because I'm kind of a completionist.

Basically, I just want to know what was going through your mind and why you chose destruction.


I wanted to end the Reapers once and for all. I did not want to choose Control because I did not want them threatening the galxy ever again. Synthesis is giving into what you've been fighting against all along. Destruction was the best fit. My shepard is a bad ass paragon vanguard who's not afraid to pull some renegade options in order to kill baddies.

I chose destruction because to me that's been Shepard's goal right from the start. Synthesis seemed wrong, like going against everything Shepard has been fighting for. If TIM thought control was a good idea then that option was automatically out, lol.

I was drawn to Synthesis initially because I'd played a very Paragon oriented character who'd been uniting the galaxy, getting the Geth and Quarians to get along, curing the Genophage, etc, and it seemed most in line with that. The last minute explanation, taken at face value, that Synthesis was the new option that could break the cycle was very appealing.

Then I started to question whether it was really effectively going to turn everything into Reapers. And then I started to think that even the new bio/synthetics would want at least VI assistants sometimes, and that would lead back to the allegedly inevitable cycle.

I then considered Control, but the dialogue just bugged me so much --

'So the Illusive Man was right?'
'Yes'

Uh, so... that was kind of out of no where for my character. She had felt the Illusive Man had been indoctrinated and was being used to keep humanity from uniting to fight the real threat. I just didn't want to believe that he was right.

I think maybe the Star Child meant that the Illusive Man was right in the sense that it might be possible to control the Reapers, not necessarily that it was the best choice.

And I read up on Indoctrination Theory, and while I don't believe it was what BioWare intended, lots of things started to bug me -- where Shepard's armor went, where she and Anderson were, how Anderson got in there first, the bullet wound on her own body in the location she shot Anderson, who this Star Child was, how they could possibly be in the Citadel tower given the view.

So that brought me back to the simple Destroy option, which involved a lot of sacrifice. I'd worked hard to help the Geth, and now the Geth were helping the Quarians. But it was the only option left that, assuming it actually did destroy the Reapers, would put the galaxy's fate back in its hands. Organics could develop synthetics again and learn to cooperate with them or not. Just because the Star Child had enforced his Solution didn't mean synthetics had to wipe out organics, just that he believed that they would. We'd shown we could break the cycle of violence, at least, with the Geth.

I chose it because the goal was to destroy the reapers since mass effect 1. Realizing that the Illusive man was "right all along", just felt cheap. I'm not going to let the reapers live after they have caused so much harm. And as for synthesis...this option defeats the whole purpose of all 3 games which was unification through diversity. Synthesis is also what the main villan of ME1 wanted.

Control: No one should have such power.
Synthesis: Plain evil, immoral and not to justify.
Destroy: That was the mission all along and what Anderson would have wanted.
