I've always thought it to be irony of the highest degree how literalists seem to abhor the concept of space magic, yet embrace the interpretation that employs space magic instead of the one that doesnt.

They really do that? I thought they always try to show that the wound was there from the beginning.

 While we're at it, here is a fun tidbit from over in the MP forum:

Soon as I get my Commendation Pack I'll have the Eagle IV.

ME3 EC ending is going to be CONTROL / DESTROY / SYNTHESIS / EAGLE

"What's the Eagle choice do?"

"Nothing at all, really. But you'll still die Shepard."

As long as we are talking about the future of ME...I think that the next game we should get to play as an Asari named Shiara...and no I am not biased at all.

ShiaRa? Who is she? Posted Image

Dunno, it sounds like Sharrah. Posted Image jk

One does not simply bleed out from an existing wound because they sat down.

c'mon if your were bleeding you probably bled out or fainted before you even got to the control panel and then all of a sudden there is a wound and you pass out,
and then get up just because some ghost tells you to wake up.

OK, we'd better cut such jokes out. BioWare might take offense and lock this thread down. They are obviously great developers if IT is true. And if it's not, they are also great.

A scene of Shepard (probably) taking a breath in some rubble would imply that Shepard survived. You can argue that the catalyst was disingenuous or wrong (or that it is a reward for playing multiplayer) but not much more.

I have seen the still images of Shepard's eyes in the control/synthesis that bear a resemblance to the eyes of Saren/TIM. In the video of the control ending, Shepard's eyes clearly resemble TIM's baby blues. It is much harder, if not impossible, to spot (other than the green color, perhaps) in the video of the synthesis ending.

If Shepard's eyes are meant to symbolize (since it only happens in Shepard's head, according to IT) his/her submission to the reapers, why is there such a disparity? What narrative purpose does making it so hard to spot in the synthesis ending and easy to spot in the control ending serve?

If Shepard is transformed into some kind of disembodied will that is able to influence the reapers, the eyes in the control ending may symbolize the fundamental bond Shepard now has with the reapers. This is speculation but it can explain the disparity without requiring that the entire ending only happen in Shelard's head.

I agree that this eye pattern has only been used on 2 people that ultimately became pawns or avatars of the reapers. However, there are too many inconsistencies to argue that it symbolizes Shepard being indoctrinated without claiming that every part of the story and the story itself suddenly became exclusively symbolic at the end.

Correct me if I am mistaken.
