Can we all agree upon this?

Shepard Lives, reapers defeated by conventional means, Geth/ EDI lives, Shepard walks off into the sunset with love interest.
Is this basicly what we all want?

I like the sad yet hopeful theme of the EC endings, but I'd still like a happier one as much as anyone else.

I would want that though, I'd be lying if I said I didn't.

Basically what I really want though is some kind of expansion of the Shepard living scenario, because what we have now doesn't do it for me.

Sure; this should come at some negative to balance it out though, like having massive fleet casualties or having to sacrifice a squadmate or something.

Oh yes there would have to be sacrefices. Its just the simplicity of the rest.

Shepard reuninting with his/her main squeeze? **** yeah! But I should be able to feel that that happiness came at a price.

I guess, but I'm someone who won't waver on the conventional methods thing... just not possible. I have no problem with what we got. A bittersweet victory is something I didn't like at first, but now I really like. It's far more interesting that way to me... don't take this as a comment against the OP or any posters above, but a lot of people in general don't seem to be able to live with a consequence. Sometimes, you can't have everything. The third game is a war story afterall, and while from a "game" perspective it makes sense that this ideal outcome would be possible, it kind of diminishes what they were going for.ph34r-X wrote...

At the very least, I can respect what they were going for. I think that's why I ended up satisfied.

without sacrifice there is no sense of accomplishment.
Curing the genophage would not have had the same emotional effect without Mordin dieing.
the same with Kai Leng and Thane.

no, it would cheapen the reapers and the game. The whole trilogy would just end like any other video game...

This would actually mean something if we hadn't 5 minutes before watched the sacrifice of Anderson to make sure that the Reapers were stopped. Got the personal-level sacrifice for sense of accomplishment already, thanks.

Reapers were already cheapened. As for the game... well I just won't go there.maaaze wrote...

I'm basically alright with OP. But I don't really care anymore so I'm alright with a lot of things.

Better to just let it slip away and not think of what could have been.

I also want a Scooby Doo ending.
"Wait. That's not red blood..." *unmasks The Illusive Man* "My God.... it's Sha'ira the Consort!"

I mean look at the refusal ending. Why can't we have that in the refusal ending, but if you're readiness is too low you get the current refusal ending.
I'm just asking this to facilitate discussion, so I'm not trying to pour salt on the wound or anything (my that sounds ominous...).
I see your opinion come up, and I often state my opinion and perspective. I want to try something a bit different. Many feel "why can't we have that in the refusal ending?"
Which is a fair enough point. The writers/designers could have easily allowed that to be an option (what happens in the game is literally whatever they put in).
Just to be direct though: Why should this be an option for the refusal ending. Or even more generally, why should there be an ending that contains the following:
Shepard Lives, reapers defeated by conventional means, Geth/ EDI lives, Shepard walks off into the sunset with love interest.
I'm just asking to hear your thoughts on the subject. Open question to others that feel the same way.
