Destroying the Reapers has been Shepard's goal for several games. EDI and Geth are unfortunate casualties of course. Control is indoctrination. Synthesis is intrusive and suspect. Refuse is blah.

If I must take the Catalyst's words as true Destroy is the best option.

Control is too unpredictable

Destroy is the only sure way to rid the galaxy of the Reaper threat!!!!

Reapers die, Shepard lives. They're my main reasons.

Because people think that being told to do something for 3 games as opposed to 1 game isn't indoctrination.

A man who thinks the same at 70 as he did at 20 has learned nothing.

plus people are attached to their shepard.

As the space marines say:

"With the destruction of our enemies we will earn our salvation".

And because it was our goal until the last 5 minutes:

-Destroy: Shep & Allies
-Control: TIM & Cerberus
-Synthesys: Ghostboy & Reapers

MY choose: MEHEM

Because two other options are even worse.
Becoming a demi-god or removing organic life from the galaxy? No thank you.

No. *Stopping* them and ending the harvesting cycle has been the goal. I'm not surprised that the majority of players choose Destroy, but that argument is nonsense. It may have been *your* Shepard's goal, my Shepard's goal was always to stop the cycle while learning everything there is to learn about the Reapers and their technology. If the cycle could be stopped without outright destruction, then such a solution is the one I would always have preferred. Even back in ME1. I just didn't think I would be offered such a solution.

Before this develops into a 30 page flame war I invite everyone to vote on the BSN Census ending related thread!
And to not be totally off-topic:
I think Destroy is the safest bet, even if we assume that the Guardian is honest. It also is the option where self-determination is not as blatantly ignored as in Control and especially Synthesis. Of course the Geth/EDI supposedly die, but for that you have to blame the Guardian for his stupid reasoning and solution called Reapers.

Yean and personally I'd add 'IT' to that list as well!

The game kind of spends the whole game before the end telling us that Control is bad, m'kay. And really, our whole culture says that this is Hubris, which will inevitably be followed by Nemesis and disaster. Neither of those are actually logical reasons, but this is a story and their narrative logic is quite compelling.

And Synthesis just seems dodgy, though it's not explained well enough to say that it's definitively wrong.

Shepard lives and I really just picked Destroy out of pure despise towards the Starbrat.

There's no evidence that Shepard's AI thingy in Control won't go crazy after that event. Seriously, the very first sentence that came out of his mouth was brag about how much of a demi-god he is.

Infecting every organic being in the galaxy with Shepard's space-splooge to create a symbiosis between organics and synthetics that'll apparently happen regardless, according to some people? No thanks.

It is the only option that ends this flawed cycle idea for good. It is the only ending that the reapers don't have their hands on. It is the only choice backed by our friends and squaddies. Every indoctrinated character we ever meet rejects Destroy, but most of them would support either Control or Synthesis.
And then there is some more complicated stuff like the dangerous assumption that Holoshep would be beneficial forever or the effects of Synthesis that the Leviathans could abuse.

Lies and headcanonry.  Shepard's goal throughout the games was always to destroy the Reapers  You headcanoning otherwise is like headcanoning "My Shepard hated the Alliance" or "My Shepard was raised by hanar."

Your missing the fact that the catalyst tells you once enough generations have forgotten, synthetics will be created again and the cycle begin anew.

Assuming leviathans don't jump onto the scene now that the reapers are gone.


They all have negative outcomes.

"the reapers are still out there and i going to find a way to stop them" ME1, so my goal is stop them. I choose destroy becuase is the best way to stop them forever.

Refuse = Reapers still exist.
Control = Reapers still exist.
Synthesis = Reapers still exist.
Destroy = Reapers gone, cycle ends forever.

Destroy = Holding the line.

I highly doubt that the war with the reapers will be forgotten. It's something that many diffrent species had to deal with.

Anyways...I would definitely be more inclined to believe that the future will learn from the mistakes of the past....then to believe Shepard can actually control the reapers forever without going insane eventually.

You mean the ending that does the thing that we've been trying to do for 2.95 games is the most popular?

NO WAY MAN.
