No, it's not, and I agree---both with you, and the idea that it's what happened.  But again, it's a problem with execution, which involved explosions and pieces traveling away from a profound eruption of something other than fire.  Another "intriguing idea, rough execution" example. 

Aye.

I have a hard time understanding this is somehow even up for debate. Given what's exposited about the resistance of relays and the Citadel, I have a hard time buying Kenson's explanation of the project in light the Mu relay survived its star going supernova and for the fact she was already being indoctrinated by the time she and her team conceived the project. Especially given the exposition in-game and in-codex that the Alpha relay is unusually energetic for a mass relay, as well as the fact 157-Golgotha also contained Object Rho, a Reaper artifact that is exposited as unquantifiably powerful.

That's a lot to explain around to come to the conclusion many have in regards to this particular facet of the ending.

It's implied by "the arrival" DLC, but, y'know, speculations from everyone!

The relays didn't get smashed into with an asteroid, you know.

They got "whatever" by a being that controls them completely. Do you really expect a controlled destruction to be anywhere near as big as an uncontrolled one?

If you do, take a look at an automobile. Non-diesel of course.


AND, according to Patrick Weekes, a member of Bioware and if I'm not mistaken a writer for ME3, the relays were "deactivated," not what happened in Arrival.

So, no. No speculation here.

I think he played a different game. This does look like rather permanent 'deactivation'.

Let the speculation continue. Wait, no need. They just retconned the entire thing so they used a special kind of space magic to prevent the relays from going supernova.

That doesn't happen with control

Look again carefully at 2:16. You can see pieces of the relay being blown off. Even if it doesn't blow up as violently as in the red ending, the relays are still destroyed even in the control ending.

Destruction--sure, I can accept that. But on what scale? Certainly not like Arrival--as I said, they weren't blown to bits by an asteroid: they were deactivated/destroyed/whatever by the thing that created them.

I don't think it's really a leap of logic to conclude that the thing that made the relays is capable of disabling them without destroying the system they're in.

Truth.

I love the ending.  I'm so deep, I've already drowned.

Look again , the bits that fly off are from the outside, the 'rings' and such don't blow apart/off as they do with destroy and synthesis
