Everyone operates with "the galaxy as normal" by destroying the reapers. But, in that universe there is no "normal" because of reapers and cycles - the galaxy was -as known to anyone living at that moment- never normal. I believe that destroy as it is perfectly sound ending, lacks the developement of character. People change - I believe if I wen't trough hell and back so many times, if I died and was rebuilt, If I had to change sites, if I saw my friends die, If my beliefs were shaken as I have uncovered many truths that shaken everything I was led to believe... I am quite positive, I could change a bit and try to understand the higher scheme. That's why my Shep went for Synthesis - he saw the future which wasn't bounded by dogmas and prejudices. Yeah, their eyes glow, but I can live with that.

Destroy, destroy all the reapers!

I do like the idea of the Refusal ending, it's good to have that option there.

Before EC my "favourite" (and with favourite I mean the less bad) was destroy because there was a chance that EDI and the geth survive.

After EC I hate all the endings more:
-Destroy:
--Good: shepard can survive. Solving the situation with the original plan of destroying the reapers.
--Bad: doom the galaxy destroying the technology and all synthetics including EDI and the geth.
-Control:
--Good: the reapers rebuild the relays and become the gardians of the galaxy
--Bad: shepard die and become the starchild 2.0
-Synthesis:
--Good: EDI is fully alive.
--Bad: shepard die to convert everyone with creepy green lights all over the skin and the eyes with a forced change to all organics and synthetics because some stupid starchild and a soldier decided that that was the best for all of them. Also Legion said that the geth wanted to evolve for themselves.
-Reject:
--Good: feel good saying STFU to the stupid starchild.
--Bad: everyone is dead.

edit: I still think destroy is the best.

I'm still playing through London at the moment. But my feelings are unlikely to dramatically change from what they originally were.

I'll let Apple Bloom here explain.

The Reject ending. Yes it's a stupid ending (and I hate myself for liking it so much), but it feels so right.

I'm torn between Destroy and Synthesis.

The main advantages of Control are gone (relays being rebuilt, Citadel surviving, etc). Shepard didn't feel very alive for being immortal either. I didn't really want to enslave the Reapers after I found out they were victims to the AI I was going replace, and do my version of his job with them as my tools. I don't even want to imagine having that power and eons to impose it on people. What am I going to do when a war happens that isn't so black and white? Am I going to protect the races that harbor my memories and legacy even if they have questionable motives or would I help the newer race who may be in the right?

Destroy is ruthless calculus. You could maybe Lazarus EDI back up if you really wanted to. But the Geth are toast as a species. You get the possibility of a reunion/ride off into the sunset, and the Reapers are put to rest. Things are rebuild able, life will continue and the problem of synthetics vs ai may and probably will come up again, but for now we have peace at the cost of the only known friendly synthetics. Zaeed sitting on a beach fishing is goddam glorious as well.

Synthesis is still 'space magic' but I wasn't expecting them to explain it in a pleasing way to me. However the unlimited knowledge/potential concept behind it is neat, and the Reapers get their freedom and atonement(help rebuild). The species seemed to be okay with the changes to them. I still don't get what happens to the Catalyst/husks in that ending, are they hybrids now as well? I never considered synthesis bringing Keiji back either for Kasumi or whatever that was. Also EDI had the best narrated epilogue IMO.

Refuse ending was neat. I thought it was well done. I don't see any of my Shepards picking that choice. Since I'd pick destroy over doing nothing. So I can at least destroy the Reapers.

Right now I'm Synthesis>Destroy>>Refuse>>>Control.
Pre EC I was Control>Synthesis>>>Destroy

Im sorry for everyone who accepts Sheps death. You must have done something wrong. My emotional bonding to this character and others is too deep to let it go like this.


I completely understand this bond. But I don't know - I just feelit is allright for sheppard to die. It's something he accepted long ago. It's something he is suposed to do. I believe Shepard is bigger than sacrificing entire species (even if they are synthetic) for a chance to be with his LI. This wasn't story about a soldier who fights a good fight and gets to be with his girl in the end. This was the story that was about changing galaxy's long set order. This just don't come without sacrifices. And if it means that Shepard has to sacrifice only himself - it's a fair price.


Was it though? I mean before the very end this was the story of saving the world from being destroyed by the Reapers. Or at least it was till the very end.
To do this u can either decide to play god and become the new catalyst, sacrificing envy species and turning them into one sole species, or just destroy them along with all current synthetics (though what is destroyed can be rebuilt or repaired).
Its wasn't till the very end that we find out we can change the galaxy's order. Before then, we were led to believe that this was pretty much just an elaborate and elegant story of survival.

I accidentally deleted my save game file that I completed the game on.

So now I guess I'll have to finish my current ME2 playthrough and then import and beat ME3 all over again =(

On the plus side, after logging all these hours on the silver and gold mp...the sp ought to be pretty easy =)

So, all that said...my favorite is tbd =/

Destroy... Red is my favorite color and at the end of the day I'll still be dead no matter what.

I switched from Destroy to Control.

I've played my Shep as a Humanity First character since ME1 and figure that Shep-Reaper would ensure the Alliance transforms into the Galactic Empire! Human hegemony ftw!

Absolute power. Ohhh yeah!

Loved the EC!

Still control. Though I only like it slightly more than Destroy and Synthesis.

Synthesis is probably the actual best, certainly the game goes to some lengths to portray it so, but it's too much gibberish for me to consider taking it. And really all Shepard knows about it is some weird nonsense and the fact that the Catalyst thinks it's a great idea - and the catalyst thought the Reapers were a great idea, so that isn't a recommendation.

So I pick Control. It's at least fairly interesting, and my Shepard wouldn't be prepared to kill the Geth unless there was really no other way. Though the lack of ability to just fly the reapers into the sun annoys me.

Been reading all the replies. It's interesting to see why you guys chose your ending. I think if anything the EC has made me more considerate of all 4. Very conflicting really.

I think destroy ending is still the best but synthesis had the most heart breaking cutscenes with EDI, i felt my eyes watering first time in any movie or video game.

I still hate all of them, but I just try and pick the least worst that fits my Shepard the closest.

For example: my Paragon Shepard picked Control, which I think is a foolish choice for any Shepard to pick given who is suggesting it as a solution. But knowing my paragon finds every other solution pretty poor, it's the least worst.

My renegade earth first girl will likely have no problem with Destroy or Control, so that will work fine.

Synthesis I doubt I will ever pick.

I replayed the citadel part 4 times just to see them all. I could have gone to YouTube but I prefer to do things myself where possible, and control is the best IMO. Both pre and post EC.

I just don't like the idea of synthesis and I didn't want to destroy the Geth and EDI after everything. Control, for me at least, just seems to have the best outcome.

Reject was a good addition, though it would have been more fun to see the reaping.

Take control, fly Reapers into a sun then kill myself (if possible).

Let civilization have the freedom to find it's own destiny.

Choose to wipe out the geth on Rannoch and you have no problem choosing destroy.

Destroy by far. Control is friggin' creepy with SHEPARD I AM YOUR GOD, Synthesis is too SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE, and the other is obviously the writers giving us the finger for not liking their A/B/C endings.

I like the one where Shepard tells the Starchild where to shove it, recalibrates the Crucible thanks to some lessons with Garrus and then makes Destroy do what it should have; destroy the Reapers and only the Reapers. Then because she's not an idiot, she sets a charge instead of running towards the thing while she shoots it, and escapes the blast to radio for pick-up.
