Technically, the Dark Age is still there. Even in Synthesis, there is the period of time where the relays are down, where conventional FTL is the only means of travel, and communications are for the most part, cut off. In Destroy, that period of time lasts longer, but that time period still exists.

It takes a whopping ten to fifteen years to rebuild in all of the endings. Bioware said so at the SDCC.
Dark Age it is not.
Bow down before Super MAC.

Given that had he got his wish with the original endings, the ME universe would experience a 10k-year dark age, I can echo that sentiment.
Nonetheless I leave the relays destroyed in my post-Synthesis headcanon, because I find it more interesting to posit that a new and exotic method for long-distance star travel will be found.
The humans didn't even come close to winning. They managed to beat a tiny turian expeditionary force on one planet, and had the entire Hierarchy brought its might to bear, the humans would have been flattened. The asari called off the turians before the war could go that far; there's a reason why the turians call it the Relay 314 Incident, and that's that it didn't even qualify as a war in turian terms.What gets me is that the races are so stagnated that they think humanity's rise to power is seen as ambitious and intimidating, when that kind of gain and competitiveness is typical and natural to humanity. And the idea of heavy carriers is 'innovative' when by that time in verse, humanity's had the concept in practice for 300 years. Kind of sad, but encountering humanity must have definately been a wake-up call to the council races. Since in thei first contact war, humans took on the Turians and damn near won. And they can product individuals as wonderful and noble as Para!Shepard (Renagade Shepard too to a lesser extent.) and as cold and extreme as TIM.

Let them hate us, meanwhile, we'll continue to love synthesis.

I think the Refuse supporters at the selfish amoral jackasses of the fan base, doesn't mean I'll go to their thread and outright insult them. They made a choice and I respect that. I don't like the choice they made. Doesn't meant I'll give them sh!t about it.
Iron Maiden - The Pilgrim is my designated anthem to synthesis ending.

Yes. You have found the promised land. You are safe here.

I dislike that "everyone is changed" aspect just like most others. I would've preferred it if it affected just Shepard, who then continued to bring it to everyone else who wanted it, or just the species in contact with the mass relays. But...I think you have to make an important distinction with regard to Synthesis: it may change *what* you are on some level, but it doesn't change *who* you are. At least, there's zero indication of that and plenty of evidence that people remain who they'd been: In the epilogue, we see the different characters doing things appropriate for them. I see no reason not to take that at face value.CosmicGnosis wrote...

The Promised Land of Delusion, or so many would have you believe.
I really like the idea of Synthesis. I always wanted to validate synthetic life in the eyes of doubters, and I even wanted to make peace with the Reapers. I just hate that every being in the galaxy is affected by it. Not just the Citadel species, but every species. It's so extreme.
At the same time, it doesn't seem to affect individuals that much, unless they want it to. But that depends on your interpretation. Perception defines reality, and many people perceive Synthesis as the Reaper choice. Even if that wasn't the intention, well... look at what happened with the original endings. Audience perception can be completely different from the writer's intention.
Synthesis would definitely be my choice if I could keep it from being crushed under its own weight. I've yet to find a way to feel comfortable with it.
Safe? Relatively spoken, maybe, but read the first few pages. Things were rather ugly for a time after this thread first came up.LDS Darth Revan wrote...

Ah yes, the ugly truth, the grand reveal etc etc etc.. They are still hoping BioWare would someday play the IT card aren't they? Well it seems we aren't the most delusional people out there. xD

IT is stupid, Bioware is no where near competent enough to work that out.
Indoctrination as headcanon is ok, I'm pretty sure the the majority of Indoctrination fans also feel this way.
But really if you think Bioware is going to somehow make ME3 good, you're wrong so don't support IT.
Just headcanon that Shepard was indoctrinated, makes life easier.
I don't think there is many people who think IT is true and support it.
Synthesis is complete trash and really there is only one boat and it is a trash boat, all synthesis supporters are on it.
