What? Why is everyone going negative on this idea? Put the ugliness of morality behind you. Focus on the benefits!
The only problem with the Synthesis ending was that Bioware screwed up. If you look at the platform area behind where Shepard was it is identical to where Shepard and Anderson were sitting. The elevator was only symbolic. There really was no elevator. So what happened to Anderson? Oh, Bioware did their famous "disintegrate corpse" thing. If they hadn't and left the corpse there, you would have had a perfectly fresh corpse to throw into the beam. Shepard would have survived, and no sacrifice would have been needed. There would have been no need to "taint" the Destroy ending with the destruction of the Geth.
Control would have still been dead last on the list. Who wants to preside over an army like that for a billion years and have no fun with it. It's basically the no fun ending.
If you could destroy the reapers without destroying the Geth, but have to rebuild all that stuff, you'd have your civilization in the crapper for a while, but you could rebuild. It would take a few hundred years. And you could survive the ending.
But with Synthesis. If you could survive the ending, and get all these great features and benefits out of it, and all that knowledge of those past civilizations, just think! Now put all that morality about rewriting everyone's brain and DNA with Anderson's aside ... it doesn't exist. La la la la la. The entire galaxy able to communicate without misunderstanding down to the lowest vorcha to the mightiest reaper.
But no, they had to taint this ending with Shepard's death all because they didn't want to leave Anderson's corpse on the platform, and they didn't think any player would even think of tossing their friend and mentor's 5 minute old corpse into a green beam to save their own hide.
Take the blue pill,
you'll wake up in bed and believe
whatever you want to believe.
Takes the red pill,
you stay in Wonderland
and will see how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Take the Green pill.............. Have you seen that movie where ppl become infected by worms and melt into each other. It'll be alot like that. And we'll conquer the world AND make the human race extinct. Look, just take the green pill. If you don't you always wonder what would have happened if you did.
The moral of the story? Say no to dudes with sunglasses who offer you pills, and the glowing dead child who offers you preety colours.
(note) if you have encountered the glowing dead child then you have either said yes to the pills by the man in sunglasses, or you are playing Mass Effect 3. Either way, brace for the enevitable crash by holding onto your forgotten childhood teddy bear and wait til the shivering stops.
