The only way you can think the ME3 literal ending is fine is if you've never played the game, and just watched a video of the endings.
Even then thats pushing it.
I feel bad for anyone that didn't mind the endings. Seriously. Because if they enjoyed those endings, they never really got what made Mass Effect awesome to begin with.
I love how I'm a living expmlwe of how this is wrong. I love everything about Mass Effect, including the endings. I just happen to like IT more than literal.
I just did second ending with saving Anderson and Shepard alive this time, I gotta say that I'm less depressed than the first one with Shepard's death. I don't remember seeing Normandy ship taking off the planet they crashed on in first one, so this must be the bonus scene along with Shepard's breathing. This one made me a bit more happier, knowing that Normandy will go back to Earth and find Shepard in hospital or whatever, reuniting and then they're all happy! But still, I would like to see that in official ending, just not up to interpretations or whatever.

But as for IT, I'm really scared to say that I want to agree with it because what about the fact that Bioware has shown us this ending of Destroy choice, that everything's okay after that. But after reading a bit, it's really clear that indoctrination might have taken place, just to test Shepard because of how Catalyst is starting to realize that their solution is not working anymore. I know that if you destroy reapers, the synthetics will eventually destroy all organic life, but look at what Shepard did by uniting Quarians and Geth. So it's possible that synthetics will coexist with organics in this cycle, not before Reaper's time where they had to create reapers to prevent that in future cycles. I don't know, I just want to believe that Shepard was actually there on Citadel and that he somehow survived the whole thing, but that's nearly impossible...so I'm believing in IT then.
