- So the catalyst isn't lying because it's the end of the game? That's the most contrived storyline in the history of existence.


Sad, but true. If he is lying, then the game is not over, the ending was not the ending, and we were sold unfinished product. And that is unfair to say the least.


Unfair or not - the fact is that many developers are releasing ending DLC.

Before you make the decision, point me to 1 reaper that was controlled. Go ahead, i'll wait.


All the reapers are controlled by the catalsyt.


And, you know, Reapers leaving Earth after blue explosion.

Control is the best.

And frankly, of all the different exploisions. The blue energy wave is the most nice looking of them.:wizard:

Apples and oranges when we're comparing the supposed creator of the reapers to someone essentially trying to hack control.

1. We don't know the extent of his control

2. We dont' know how truthful he is

3. Even if he has control, we don't know how he's doing it

4. We don't know what he is.


There are too many variables to say, "herp, derp, cataylst can dew it, i canz too!"

Ugh, it's not the blue explosion that did it, it was the Mega Maid.

Seriously. Blue energy wave>Red firestorm>Green space magic.

And of all the colours there are, I always felt blue was the one who represented Mass effect the most.

And this is a unique situation:  this isn't just one game---this is the end of a trilogy where the main character has been charging after a conclusion for a very, very long time.  Tossing in paid DLC that adds new elements to the lead-up to a predetermined, player-decided fate isn't nearly as interesting as adding enigmatic developments that occur after what we've already seen to happen.

As the game stands, we've ended the threat in an ambiguous way.  What else can happen during and after this?  Hate to say it, but I'd pay to see it.

Even if Shepard could see into the future and know the results of his choice, it STILL doesn't answer how LONG he has control for.

I don't know, but neither does the game until EC.


So this is pointless to discuss since I can only offer you my headcanon.

And you can't argue with my headcanon.

By the way, keep in mind, that with Control ending we still have "option B" and "option C" available. But Destroy and Synthesis are both a one-way-train to unknown.

You wanted an answer to someone who controlled the reapers. The catalsyt does. And that means the reapers CAN be controlled. It may not be even hacking, but changing a master. Yes, there is a difference. Even if we don't know how exactly Shepard will control, does not mean it's not a possibility. Especcially if someone else did succeed to control them.

Well Shepard uses the Crucible to do it. It's not like he has to fight the will power of the Catalyst.

And yea the more and more I think about it. The Control ending seems to be the most practical.

Synthetics and organics live, Reapers defeated (by controlling them), Citadel (the heart of galactic civilization) is intact. Seems to have the most pros.

Plus there is no reason why Shepard can't just fly the Reapers into the sun or something.

Destroy is the 2nd best because it's satisfying to see dead Reapers and Shepard live.

Somehow I think the Reapers have a self-preservation instinct and no "self-destruct-button". So they will never obey suicidal orders. So, I'm sure Shepard will move the Reaper fleet to darkspace and put them into "sleep mode".

...And in the future Shepard could use the Reapers to defend the galaxy against some dire threats... What if Reaper's creators will return and will not be happy with this organic primitives' "rebellion"?

Out of all the terrible endings, this one is, by far, the least bleak and hopeless. I really hope the EC does the trilogy justice, so I can actually enjoy the series again.

That's actually a good theory.
