Destroy is the best option because it gets rid of the reapers permanently.
Did anyone really think twice to pick which colour? I just wen't straight to RED

Indoctrinated Protheans also wanted to Control the reapers...Zolt51 wrote...
Why exactly is control not an option? Because it's The Illusive Man's route and nothing else?
And the only other person who tells you you can control the reapers is the Reaper King...
You are betraying your allies and trusting your enemies...

I didn't think about it at all - I immediately started looking for the *real* choice as the ones being offered by vent-boy were clearly all traps. I thought that perhaps this was the point where I could take back control of my Shepard (as it had clearly been taken from me earlier). When I couldn't find the real choice, I went back to not caring what happened.

No, he thinks that Reapers store order. But he means that organics will make synthetics again. Anythings probably better thanthe Reapers.

At any rate, I didn't actually shoot the pipe. I chose synthesis.
Yeah, it's kind of horrible, modifying the bodies of every being in the galaxy.
But you know what else is horrible? Killing people. And even if we only count ones I've shot myself, I've done an awful lot of that. And then ones I blew up, like those 400,000 Batarians. Or the ones I sacrificed in the 5th fleet to save the Destiny Ascension. Mind control is pretty terrible too - but I did that to the heretic Geth.
Get right down to it, Shepard's job has always been to choose the least of all evils. Horrible as it may be, Synthesis was the least of all evils.

I first responded by shooting at starchild. When that failed I started to ponder whether or not I would be okay with killing the Geth. I knew that control was out of the question since that was what TIM wanted and synthesis reminded me of Saren for some reason.
I eventually chose destruction because I (the player) had seen Anderson blowing it up.. and if there is anyone more paragon than my Shepard, it's him.

It took me forever to choose. I knew I was close to the end so I stayed up late to beat the game. Once the star kid showed up and started "explaining" things I didn't understand what was going on. Since I was so tired and the ending was so completely awful I just didn't "get it". I sat for so long I think the game made a point to push me into a choice. Since I played paragon I chose blue and the rest is history.

Irina, my gray-haired femShep, & first playthrough of all three games, and actual RPGing play, had all choices and went straight to red. She also had blown up the heretic base, capped Legion, so wth, right?
She followed her orders: "Get that Quarian fleet at all costs." She delivered.
What was her mission from Admiral Hackett: "This thing only ends with dead reapers." She followed her orders.

I chose synthesis, because i didn't understand the options. I did hear him say the geth would die with red and he talked up synthesis. Also I wanted to know how shepard would interact with the shiny green beam of light. Also what star kid said about transforming the universe seemed unreal.
I just wanted to save lives

I do get that, but my Paragon Shepard wasn't going to change her mind on the matter of controlling them. To her, they couldn't be controlled, and was the last thing that should be done to resolve the threat. The future is most uncertain with that option. Who's to say you can retain your grip on the Reapers.Zolt51 wrote...

I thought for a bit. Control wasn't an option

If you think about it, it's the ending that offers the least collateral damage:
- Geth saved
- Citadel: OK, safely shuts down and closes.
- Mass relay damage seems less than other endings
Of course you do sacrifice Shepard, and control isn't really part of his usual moral compass, but still, it's a very valid alternative.
TIM wouldn't be the first villain who tried to do the right thing, for the wrong reasons and in a horribly wrong way.
It was the choice I decided against before I knew it was going to be one.

I took a moment to look at each option on the table.
I looked at the blue option, thought: "Dead"
I looked at the green option, thought: "Dead"
I looked at the red option, thought: "Likely dead"
Went with red 'cause I figured it gave me the best chance to survive and I wanted to see any possible scenes with my LI after the Reapers where killed. Suffice to say, that part didn't happen. All I got was the crew crashing on some weird planet and Shepard taking a breath in rubble before thh credits rolled. The whole thing left me thinking "That's it?
". I then proceeded to come here and learn that yes, that's it.

Ah, ok. See, I thought that he meant the Reapers would somehow come back again (lord knows how that would've happened). If I didn't make that mistake the chance of me chosing Destroy would have increased.SovereignX6 wrote...

In the first game I did not make a choice at all. I selected one and reloaded the game twice to select the other two and see what happened. I saved all three results in an attempt to allow me to think about it later. Of course now I know that all of the 3 options are solutions to a non-existing problem. If I replay the game now then I just pretend that the game ends after Anderson dies and select destruction to get it over with.

Priority: Send Reapers to hell.
Control - You think you can control and trust your enemy and letting the greatest threat live on in the future of other worlds.
Destroy - You did what you had to, send the Reapers to hell. And you did it no matter the cost.

I chose destroy on my paragade playthrough, synthesis on my paragon playthrough, and control on my renegade.
I'm curious about the destroy ending.
We don't actually SEE the geth die, and considering Shepard CAN live through the destroy ending maybe it's possible the geth lived through it as well.

I didn't hesitate on what to pick, I picked red, I was always gonna destroy the reapers. I did however stand there a minute, baffled by what was going on.

I went straight for destruction both times I played. I don't really believe reaperboy that it will destroy EDI and the Geth, just sounded to me like he was trying to make destroying the Reapers the least palatable choice. Synthasis was horrifying to me, with control there is no guarantee that Shepard will remain in control and/or not suddenly decide some time in the future to start the cycle all over again. Destruction is the only way to make 100% sure the cycle ends.
