I was a Controller for a while, but I kept coming up with reasons not to use the Reapers for anything beyond rebuilding and regain Shep's human aspect. Then I decided that if I was trying to dodge major thematic elements then it wasn't the ending for me.


That's a good point. It's like I'm trying to defy and ignore what the EC implies. It's kind of like how some Destroyers ignore the evidence that EDI and the geth are dead.

You don't have to ignore it though, there is nothing negative about paragon control. The Shepalyst is not a dictator.

one , i do not ignore ( this is because i am destroyer ) the evidence that edi is killed. she was on the normandy and her plaque is on the F*cking wall and pretty sure the crew would know . obvious and she was built using reaper tech. however i want this evidence you have of the geth passing

oh and just shoot the tube , its easier and simple:innocent: oh and cookies

If you sided with the Geth over the Quarians, the slides will show an empty and vacant Rannoch in destroy.

mostly a joke though, . but control is my other choice , actually the only ending epilogue that almost made me cry . but that was at the memorial scene . and might have been Mark Meer.

youtu.be/Ekbg28ViB-8  that


@lizardviking

thanks. i knew you could get a scene like that , but thought it was only for like control or synthesis , and if you sided with the geth .

although it just shows the quarians. i mean rannoch was empty for the most part in the first place. if i see no dead geth i will deny lol i mean it could just be whats left of the survivors and what not from the battle about . qurians

My favorite part about that scene is how near the end Shepard doesn't sound like a robot, he/she sounds completely Human.

yeah edited my last post when i saw it

@Etarna5

yeah that right that almost makes me want to pick it. but still feels iffy to me. . as with synthesis. not that i hate them . just that they aren't for my shepard.. don't like the idea of shep being that powerful. with control of that army . and being forever alone

not same shep but still, although sometimes you have to step up i guess

Congrats!

I think.

Control tends to be a good compromise for people somewhere between Destroy and Synthesis.

There's a fine line between ignoring and not caring.

Which is what I think about the geth and EDI dying in Destroy. I simply don't care.

The geth were taking shots at me every chance they had during the majority of the trilogy and they never really tried to prevent a bad situation like the little conflict in ME3 from happening to begin with and then they're directly contradicting their own guidelines from ME2. Sure, it was in self-defense, but they could at least have taken a stand for what they believed in.

Like EDI. She was fine with giving herself up if it meant killing the Reapers and she stood by that decision.

Didn't help that the only geth I liked was Legion and he's dead.

I simply hated the ending altogether. At this point full out renegade control is the only ending I could choose.

Why would you want to choose anything other than Renegade Control anyway? It's a perfect end.

Is it? Think about this... what about full renegade Synthesis -- I'm talking about that you didn't do one single good thing in the entire series. You get to infect the entire galaxy with your DNA. It's corruption on a galactic scale.

Hmmm. Interesting. 

TBH though, I played renegade from the start in the hope of eventually helping the Reapers fulfil their goal of wiping out all of the advanced organic races. To my credit though, I think I actually improved upon their plan in my head-canon - why stop at just wiping out the advanced races? Let's get them all! 

It's refreshing to see a game go against the grain. Any other game would probably go full cliche and make you do something for the good of the galaxy, but screw that - BW gave me the opportunity to imagine my own perfect ending, and that just happened to be an ending where all organic life in the galaxy is exterminated. Win.

No cliche there. Completely un-videogame-like. Art. Win.

I too reached the conclusion that control was for me. Dont mind since my shep is paragon. I think my shep ai's reaper fleet would stay in dark space after assiting in rebuilding and instead of coming back to kill everyone, they would come to the defense of the galaxy if a threat were to unfold.

 I chose it because I personally think it's the most interesting set-up for a sequel, in addition to all the reasons you stated.

Well, guys. My choice may change sooner that I expected. I'm currently struggling with what to do with "problematic" Reapers (like Harbinger) and some thematic problems with Control (validating Thomas Hobbes' belief that humanity needs a sovereign to guide us).

Perhaps I declared my choice too soon? As if 8 months wasn't long enough.

I guess I need to determine what I care about most: literal perspective, or thematic perspective. If I want to focus on the literal perspective, I might stick with Control or Destroy. If I want to focus on the thematic perspective, I might choose Synthesis. For example, Synthesis embraces a union of biology and technology, and represents a massive revolution in the perception of life. Literally, however, I force a change on everyone...
