That fighting an army of Emerald Weapons is not a good idea.

Kekeke.

But seriously, I think there are multiple threaded themes in the story that it's impossible to say there's one single main theme, but if I had to choose it's be a union of two themes you'd expect to be juxtaposed: unity and diversity.

Overcoming the impossible, strenght through diversity and idealism vs cynicism. Probably in that order if I had to pick.

Also "Vigil". One of my favourite video game themes.

The number one theme would have to be Defiance/courage to go against all odds. It's what we've seen in all three games except the ending of mass effect 3. Which is why the current ending of mass effect 3 is the most ridiculously scripted piece of trash out there in the gaming world. ahem...Others lasting themes would be: Hope and Dreams. Oppression. Idealism. Unity. Justice and Injustice. War and Survival. Culturalism....and Inevitability.

Free will and self-determination triumphing over fatalism and determinism.

Predictably, I was very unhappy with the ending.

As corny as it sounds, Love and Friendship

Indeed.

It's the same as most sci-fi. They are holding a mirror up to humanity.

The central theme is 'what it means to be human'.

Unity and strength through diversity?
I.E. Aliens as crew/friends, uniting warring races, spreading hope etc...

Actually yeah, this.

Hope. God knows how many times that word (Along with something in the likes of "We'll fight anyway!") has been said.

[Raiil]

The underdog uniting disparate factions to save the day. Diversity=good is more paragon, victory despite the odds is slightly more renegade, although at any cost might be a better term. Victory through diversity and unification is more ME2 IMHO.

i felt like it was 'do not accept the fate given to you, never give up'

i mean lets think about it, he fought against Sovereign and Saren when he was quite likely to die, same with the suicide mission.

but Shepard didn't give up, he/she REFUSED to accept death as a answer.

[Tleining]

Diversity
Doing the Impossible

Mutants
honestly this just occured to me in ME3 when Eve called Wrex a Mutant because he is so unlike other Krogan. With the Exception of Kaidan and Ashley all your Squadmembers are freaks. The same is true for Joker and Shepard.

[moater boat]

Hope

It is the only theme that is reflected not only in every game, but literally in every single mission.

choice and its consequences

Off the top of my head, I think the most pervasive theme was that of humanity as newcomer to the galaxy and struggling to validate itself as important.

What I was going to say.
Either that, or LSD.

Finding your own destiny rather than having it dictated to you. 

Reach exceeding grasp. 

Standing united vs Standing independant

1# theme: you cant win just give up and die already.

This has merit.
