Yeah.. Control seems great until you realize the Shepalyst isn't going to give the keys back to the galaxy. I'd rather my Shep not become a dictator. It never ends well for either party.
i understand the fear of someone you dont really know, but lets say shep is real.id totally be cool with tehm as the driver
Sure, for a little while. Big picture tho. Lots of dictators in history did amazing things to turn things around for their countries.. it doesn't stay that way.
Sooner or later, it won't be about rebuilding anymore. Shep takes that throne of determining whats good or bad for the galaxy. Fact is, regardless of intelligence or intention, everything, for eternity, will be allowed to live or die on the whim of something that might not be all that connected to the condition of the galaxy they're trying to save. It can lead to an all to casual destruction of life. What if the Quarians and Geth race ahead in evolution. Will Shep remove them? What if the Krogan don't feel like they should be under a Reaper's arm? Will Shep wipe them out? How long until the galaxy feels they'd do better without their AI baby-sitter and rebels? Would Shep ever see themselves as doing harm and killing itself?
Control looks really awesome in the short epilogue we see. Truth is, its just as limiting as Synthesis. You're taking away the future of these civilizations by offering them an easy solution to all their problems: we'll take it from here. You'd make Legion cry.. if he was alive. And had tear ducts.
Edit: @Arcadian it's not a matter of disposition. The position is of absolute authority with a fleet of super weapons to enforce it. Intentions are irrelevent. Shep is calling the shots... seemingly forever. There are no "I'll fix the relays and destroy the reapers". It's I'll protect who I feel need to protect or i'll make sure everyone gets along or else.
