I picked my nose...does that count???
Well I decided with all three for three different shepards...

Well, there's also the literalist approach to the endings!

Synthesis: I think it sounds like a good idea to break reality by playing god and forcibly turning everyone in the galaxy into some sort of bizarre organic/synthetic hybrid that doesn't make any logical sense and is probably sterile (as noted elsewhere).

Destroy: I like me some genocide! DIE EDI AND THE GETH!

Control: And I just saved everyone and am now an immortal super-powered protector of the galaxy, just in case some other nasty threat from beyond no one knew about before decides to come along someday.

Gosh, that's ... so hard to choose from.

I can only imagine choosing Destroy or Control, if I were given the choice myself. Destroy definitely eliminates the Reaper threat. Control is something of a black box, but similarly offers a resolution to said threat. (If it works as advertised.) Synthesis just makes no kind of sense. There are a lot of reasons to consider Synthesis a bad move, among these that it's tinkering with all life at a fundamental level in a way that nobody has successfully field tested before.

You forgot the part about making 20,000 cycles of corrupted and twisted life into your slave army, and laying out an agenda to be enforced by them...

Because nothing says Paragon like slave armies and dictatorships...

Full Paragon, Full Destroy.

You're welcome.

[kalasaurus]

Paragade (60/40, usually), and I've picked Destroy. My Shepard likes destroying things - the heretics, the Collector Base. Time to blow up some Reapers too.

Paragon Control has the best epilogue, though, so it's a close second. That Shepard monologue was pretty cool.

[Mareike9]

I'm a Paragon with occasional tendencies to go Renegade when the situation calls for it, but I chose the Destroy option, as well. Even if I make a Renegade run for the heck of it, I'll still choose the same.

I'm not willing to lose my humanity (or take it in my hands for others to lose who they are) just to give the Reapers what they want, neither have I any intention on becoming the very thing I've been fighting all throught the games.

There's a slide with Krogans holding a baby. Pay attention to the endings.

[Astartes Marine]

I'm more of a paragade in ME3, full paragon is far too soft for my liking and full renegade is just downright jackassery.

Well.  That was fun!

Paragon, Renegade ... I favor the greatest good for the greatest number, whatever the associated color.  And if you expect me to feel pity for the "poor, enslaved" Reapers, you're going to be extremely disappointed I'm afraid.  I feel more pity for a mosquito I swat.

Yes, but that may be a baby that remains a baby forever.  Another discussion from another thread though.  Not worth getting into here.

Why not?

[Dr_Extrem]

destroy is neither paragon nor renegade - just like the others.

the red colour may imply this but ...

on the other hand ... the paragon interupt always appears on the right side of the screen (where the tube is).

I did, it bumped my reaper K/D ratio up from 3/1 to 1358/1,5

[BronzTrooper]

Uh... yeah? I might be in the minority, but I see Destroy as a Paragon choice. I also see Synthesis as a Paragon choice and I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority with this one.

[Giga Drill BREAKER]

Destroy is the only paragon ending.

[DecCylonus]

Yes. While I don't believe the endings have alignments, I found the implications of the other endings to be worse.

[Hadeedak]

I play a paragon sometimes.... And I picked destroy.

On my renegon playthrough!

Muahahah. Anyway. Yeah. Depends on the Shepard. A few of my paragony brigade may shoot the tube later.

[L2 Sentinel]

Most people play paragon. Most people pick Destroy. These are facts. This means large portion of paragon players pick Destroy, including myself, so you are not alone, OP. Far from it.

[Obadiah]

No matter how hard I try I usually end up playing Paragon, and have on occasion picked destroy.

[Galifreya]

I play predominantly Paragon. Sometimes my Shep will say something snappy. Like with Kai Leng, "He'll die like the rest." But Destroy is not renegade in my opinion. Control and Synthesis are, though. Synthesis is still a forced change, and Control is just tyrannical King/Queen reaper taking the place of a previous tyrannical King reaper.

Red is dead. I think most people forget that.

[zakdillon]

I have no love for the Geth by the end of the series. Even my paragon Shepards usually end up destroying the Geth on Rannoch. He may be a nice guy, but he is still a realist. Well... I guess maybe that means I just cant make a fully paragon Shepard. Even my most paragon Shepards realize they cant save everyone. So for me, the only downside to Destroy is killing EDI. I view it like Virmire. Someone's got to die. I just have to decide who it is.

In either case, its all about Destroy. Makes a good finale, and keeps the characters around for continuity of the story. Come at me, ME4.

So, a question, paragon players - do you consider Destroy ending to be a renegade option?

To some extent, yes. I am a Paragon player who nevertheless has three Shepards that hover in Paragade/Renegon territory, and I sometimes role-play them as thinking that stopping the bad guys is more important than saving the good guys. Examples of decisions along these lines would be letting the hostages be killed in Bring Down the Sky, waiting to go through the O-4 Relay after the crew's abduction, or going after Vido Santiago instead of saving the trapped workers. (Not that all three of them did *all* of these, or any other particular Renegade choice, but that was usually their reasoning when they did.)

Destroy seems similar to me. It puts the most immediate and unambiguous end to the Reaper threat, but it has much higher collateral damage and it doesn't give the Reapers a chance to prove that they can be cooperative once free of the Catalyst.

Control and Synthesis also have aspects that are uncomfortable from a Paragon perspective - my Paragon Shepards would not, under any other circumstances, want any one individual to have as much power as AI-Shep has in Control and would object to the fact that Synthesis changes everyone whether they like it or not. But they do at least have lower body counts and allow the galaxy to work towards peace without eliminating all synthetics.

[George Costanza]

I'm almost entirely paragon when I play and I have never picked anything but Destroy.
