My absolutely biggest problem with the endings is the following:
"synthetics will allways kill organics"
Without much in the way of any "evidence". It is such a facepalmingly bad logic or rather forced explanation that I don't even know where to begin to describe my disappointment with it.
It's like a... psychological murder thriller that ends with the notion that ... "some people are just murderers (derp!)" and ... well thats just how it is.
I'd buy the explanation of vengefull ai, faulty ai, crazy ai and so forth... Not an illogical attempt at an explanation of an even more illogical force of nature thing.
PS: I fully acknowledge other peoples right to their own oppinion on any subject but I'll still say that if you can accept a statement like "synthetics will allways kill organics" you haven't actually thought it through.
PPS: I have to try to explain my dislike of it a little more.
Many many many years ago at the age of maybe 5... My uncles had wifes but 1 of my uncles had a boyfriend. A perfectly reasonable explanation to me at that age for that is what my parents told me: "Some people ARE just that way."
As an adult and if I ask myself the question: Why are some people gay? I'd have to look into a multitude of psychological research, genetical research and heck even ask people directly what being gay is and why and so on.
I feel bioware treated me like a kid with their explanation.
PPPS: I rather like much of the rest of the game. Rarely have a game kept that emotionally engaged. Too much overboard on the autodialogue. A few minor graphical bugs and so on... Still I'd rate most of the game as 9-9.5 outta 10 without the ending. With ending my rating goes down to 7-7.5 outta 10. ... *sigh* A ww2 why we fought piece with the answer being AMERICAH! or ... fo shizzle... action reply.
