It removes the harvesting cycles. Not diversity.

The cycle is removed by removing the intelligence, not by changing/replacing DNA.

[Wulfram]

I'm not ending Shepard's story by having her kill off an entire race. And Synthesis is totaly gibberish to me. So Control.

[Dragoonlordz]

Reason for my choice is explained in vast detail via link in my signature.

P.s. My overall final choice for Shepard was 'control' ending.

Removing the intelligence is a given, the ramifications (collateral destruction, new overlord, organic merger with tech) are not.

Many ways to stop someone. All options viable.

Reapers not able to have free will. Can still save them. Not like Collectors.  Can heal patients.


Opposition  problematic. No choice. Have to kill you.

Synthisis = Catylist Victory

so there was really only 2 viable options, Control or Destroy

in control, my spirit and my thoughts and memories could watch over my friends and the rest of the galaxy,with the ability to instanty stop any force trying to harm them. Also I will be able to restore the galaxy to its former greatness,pre-reaper invasion It sounds like the best choice. But like my Shepard says, Life must be allowed to progress or digress at its own pace,and organic life is to complex for machines to understand

So I picked Destroy,to remove the reapers from the equation of life,and let the species solve things on there own. Has I fired into that support beam or whatever it was, I was thinking about the zillions of lives that the reapers unjustly took,and about my frends that the reapers where threatning

The Geth were not part of my decsion,becuase they were already destroyed by the Quarians

The Geth were not part of my decsion,becuase they were already destroyed by the Quarians,and I will be glad to defend that decision also!! I wasnt going to let another Quarian die to save a smart machine!!!

the only regret I have is EDI, becuase unlike the Geth, she was trying to understand Organic life at its deepest levels, her relationship with Joker was driving her to understand what it means to be human

Refuse
What that fourth option did - that ability to refuse not only on a textual level but a metatextual one - was to allow me to reject the game itself, within the game itself. It was an admission by the creators that, for some, their vision was unacceptable. It was a subtle form of humility, masked though it might be by the distorted, petulant exclamation by the Catalyst at my decision, and it allowed me to act with the finality I desired. I no longer wished to be a part of this story, so twisted and unrecognizable.


I was allowed to draw a line. I took them up on their offer.

I like this.  It makes sense to me.

[Sable Rhapsody]

MEHEM. Because if the universe loves diversity, then yay for fan-made endings and more choice in story!

[Eterna]

I picked Control so that the people in the Galaxy would never have to experience such a devastating war again, so they could lives their lives free from the fear of extinction.

[themikefest]

destroy is the goal no matter what we knew this since ME1

Your children will build Synthetics and everyone will go extinct. Rachni uprising? You're doomed. Krogan rebellion, Wrex can't lead forever, you'e also doomed. Leviathans rise up again? Once again you're doomed. 

Control creates a safety net. 

[GreyLycanTrope]

MEHEM for sake of my own sanity, though being on xbox I can't actually implement it.

Refuse is a symbolic funeral pyre for franchise that is now largely dead to me. Also it rejects a poorly written premise.

Destroy, my headcanon makes the geth and EDI survive anyways.
I'd refuse if it would make conventional victory possible. Alas Control and synthesis are just horrible.

[Bob Garbage]

I have Shepards for each ending. I don't like one more than the other really.

[Archonsg]

I didn't.
It was picked for me.

If I wanted a "sacrifice" ending, I would have picked control, evacuate any remaining survivors AND THEN fly the Citadel and every single Reaper into the Sun.

I would be fine if Shepard died that way.
I would rather also have a DA:O style way out, for Shepard to win, live and walk into the sunset with LI of choice.

In the end, if not for MEHEM, if I was to remain true to the Shepard I role played for 5 years, Refuse was the only "choice" left to me. It was an "FU!" ending no doubt, but it was the Shepard I played with and remember. Not the automaton moron that replaced *my* Shepard in that final last 10 minutes.

Refusal

It's the only ending were you don't stab a group of people in the back,stick to morals, and tell wannabe 343 Guilty sparks to **** off

[SeptimusMagistos]

I picked Control because while Synthesis looked nice it should be something people do to themselves and the cost associated with Destroy was too high. Control sacrificed nothing and ended the war immediately while letting Shepard live on in computerized form. A win for all involved.

Also, it subverts the Catalyst's agenda. Synthetics and organics are both out in force, neither culled as in Destroy nor fused as in Synthesis. Just the two kinds of life, mingling and getting along in whatever way they can. The relations established throughout the three games are allowed to progress without a radical reset.

[MegaSovereign]

I like the Control ending because it seems to reject the Catalyst's agenda and inserts Shepard's.

I also like the Destroy ending because it's the ending where your principles aren't really compromised in order to stop the Reapers. It also invalidates the alleged necessity of the Reapers and their technology.

Control creates a safety net. 

That safety net being a quite obviously insane and arrogant human spliced together with an AI whose programming was so inherently flawed it started the cycles and made the Reapers, with absolute power over the tools used to slaughter and indoctrinate countless trillions.  

I'll take my chances with the already compliant Krogan and Rachni, and the really quite helpless Leviathans, instead of putting faith in Reaper Overlord 2.0. 

Yeah, all that seems incredibly snarky, in hindsight. Nothing particularly worse about control compared to Destroy, as I see it, because there seems to be a large risk by choosing either.

A safety net of Reapers whose sole purpose was to reap galactic civilizations...with the hope that you can not only control them forever...but also that you can stay sane forever.

Anyways.

You assume all those bad things will happen if Destroy is picked.

I assume Shepard can't actually control the Reapers with his mind in tact forever if Control is picked.

To each their own.
