Not to fuss, but you spent 3 games trying to 'end the threat of the reapers'.
All 3 endings do that.
No, we were trying to destroy the reapers, the other two option let them live therefor the threat remains.

Thought this would be a good place to link this amazing comic.
Total respect.

really? they seem to be fine in 2 of the endings? still look quite threatening to me. Oh, and we ran out of crucibles :/ oops.

Pretty much. It's all about the team.
....Which is why I didn't choose destroy. But it's not like I think it's a BAD choice.

Well, the game unequivocally tells you you ended the threat of the Reapers. So yes. Really.

Good... atleast you're not all the way indoctrinated;)

Well, if we're debating endings based purely on theorizing...
Hey, control, fly Reapers into the sun, build robot body like EDI, and it takes 3 days to fix the relays from their slightly less exploded state.
Yeah, I'm not an indoctrination person.
I am, however, a sucker for the heroic sacrifice. Shepard killing herself to remove the threat of the reapers and save the machine race suited me all right. I'd like it to be clearer, but.... Well. The game as presented tells you you win with all 3 choices, and if we can't use the game as source material, there's not much point of debating it.
As far as I know, that 'bad' ending just wrecks Earth.
If the game wanted to tell me I didn't REALLY end the threat of the reapers, it could do it in sepia tones like every other "NOT REALLY HAPPENING" moment in the game. It's not exactly subtle.
And you trust the starchild if you choose destroy, too. Otherwise, why are you shooting the pipe and assuming it will do what he says what it will do?

If you have our own headcanon, good for you. Trying to persuade people on the internet that your headcanon is the only way to go will only result in a flamewar.
I keep my headcanon for myself. I contribute only when someone directly ask me.

Isn't that the same wave as 'good' destroy? Why is that part metaphorical, but the reapers dying literal?

Well, anyone who gathers too few war points will always pass the "test," rendering this entire thread literally useless. By doing less, you defeat the Reapers and are presented ONLY the destroy option. Why would Catalyst present a loser with only that option?
And since everything is confirmed to have happened, don't say it was all a dream or something dismissive. No one has answered this point yet.

So the slowed movement from the dreams, the music from the dreams, the whispering from the dreams, the plants from the dreams,the speech reverb from the dreams and the child vision from the dreams wasn't enough?
What did you want? A big neon sign with "IT'S NOT REALLY HAPPENING" to show up in the final scene?
Would somewhat ruin the point, I think

All endings, side by side.
