If it's the writers' favorite ending, then it's likely that they were trying to make some kind of point with it. At this time, I'm not sure exactly what message they were trying to convey with Synthesis. Also, it's kind of weird to have the fanbase reject the "best" ending, if that's what Synthesis really is.
The ending is the player verses indoctrination...
It's ****ing brilliantly written...

Stick with your viewpoint or don't, but this is just a sad display.
Just think if the ship AI's voice were tuned two octaves lower and it was named EDDI.Icinix wrote...

You are a rather amusing fellow.
I am sticking with my view. I hate EDI's body. Sorry that offends you so deeply.
But you know, keep fighting the good fight precious!

We see in the Extended Cut that they left Sol via FTL. In Mass Effect canon, there's only one garden world within FTL range - only one plausible destination. Alpha Centauri.leonia42 wrote...
Screw the debate over the preferred ending. What freaking planet are they on and, more importantly, why? What is the purpose of this scene? It's probably a metaphor, it might imply a "full circle" by ending up back at Eden Prime but.. WHY. What is the fraking signficance of it? Give me some context here, Bioware.
For me it envokes a sense of "brave new world"/Eden, and I think that's the sense most people got from it. Of course, that ending does seem like it makes a lot more sense for Synthesis than any of the other endings (The Adam and Eve thing really only works with Joker and EDI, or at least it's strongest with them).leonia42 wrote...

You didn't choose to be indoctrinated...MegaSovereign wrote...
When, if ever, has the series shown indoctrination as an event where the victim CHOOSES to become indoctrinated?
Because biblically, Adam and Eve were the beginning of everything. Here is a new beginning with organics and synthetics intertwined.leonia42 wrote...
And why is there an Adam and Eve metaphor?
When did EDI and Joker become the main characters? I thought this was the end of the SHEPARD trilogy.

I wonder if their metaphor includes the serpent and the apple, but that'd probably ruin their synthetic utopia.

While that's a cool idea, I'm pretty sure the scene we se depicts the Normandy inside a Relay corridor. The beam moves linearly behind them, and we can see the corridor collapsing behind them at the front of the beam (implying that the corridor is collapsing at the same speed as the speed of the beam [in the corridor's altered frame of reference]). If that's the case, then they really could be anywhere.DeinonSlayer wrote...

Search "Manswell Expedition" on Cerberus Daily News for details about the planet, and what happened there. Suffice to say, they're less than a single day's travel away from Earth at cruising FTL speed. It'll take a while to rebuild the relays (ten to fifteen years, I think they said at SDCC), but the Normandy can get back to Sol almost immediately.

) It's just science fiction with some fantasy thrown in. So Synthesis being the best ending shouldn't be a big deal in that regard. It doesn't seem to line up well with the themes of the trilogy, though, which I assume is what most others take issue with. You could say that several other aspects from the introduction of Star Child onwards don't either.
