Story of the pro-Control/pro-Synth literalist:
1. Trusts word of Reaper overlord.
2. Commits suicide, leaving Reapers alive.
3. Calls Destroyers "dumb as bricks."

Your dumb as bricks because you paint the ending as bad when their is a whole epilogue that proves you wrong.

How? He's giving constructive critisism and that makes him dumb?

Our friend doth protest too much, methinks.

Obviously someone who's not very comfortable with having their headcanon called into question.

4. Commits multiple grammatical errors while insulting the intelligence of others.

You're dumb because you aren't secure in your own choices but seek to tear down what others have chosen. You seem blind to the bad writing and sledgehammer level of subtlety that runs throughout ME3. You act like a combination of conspiracy theorists and religious fundamentalists. I don't care what or why you do in the game. I care when you start wanting to ruin the game for others.

Ignore Eterna, guys. He's not the subject of this conversation.

There is nothing in the epilogue that proves that a control Shepard doesn't eventually lead to disaster. Nor is there for any other ending.

One of us is acting religious, it's true.

Indeed.  In fact, the Renegade Control ending even goes so far as to hint at it...

This is a problem with every ending.

Does Synthesis brain wash and indoctrinate everyone?

Can Shepard-Catalyst maintain control?

Did the geth just lose their platforms and hardware or did their programs uploaded to quarian suits and server hubs die as well?

That's the thing people hate about these endings. It creates more questions than it answers, and a good ending, especially one for a trilogy, should NEVER do that.

Funny, that's what the majority of people who picked destroy have said in this thread.

English is my second language, I feel I use it adequately.

Ouch... this hurts... I should get better armor...

[Alien Number Six]

Every other ending seems like failure.

[frozn89]

Because it's the most awesome one, excluding the deaths of the geth and EDI. That is a problem one can handle with MEHEM though )

I´m quite secure about my choice, I know what I paid and what I got.

Maybe I´m too cynical, but we are presented with issues that if something similar happened in real life would have huge implications, and told everything was fine. Both Control and especially Synthesis are Endor Holocausts at social and psychological levels. Destroy also paints a bright future, but in that one it doesn´t look there´ll be an everlasting utopy, so it´s easier to accept. That it´s the only ending where dealing with the Reapers has a significant cost also helps. Yeah, Shepard dies in the other 2, but one (wo)man dies to save everyone and brings utopia to everything across the galaxy.

sneaky .. your shepard knew the epilogue before you?


the epilogue does not matter. the reapers are the incarnation of fear, destruction, oppression, terror and genocide. they harvested their way through the entire galaxy. every same thing in the galaxy s**ts its pants just by looking at them.

it does not matter who controls them - shepard, tim, catalyst oth mother theresa. the reapers will always be feared. their undoing can not be forgotten or forgiven and if the people do nothing against them and play along, its out of fear, the reapers could start the cycle again.

the masses do not know that shepard controls them - even if a paragon shepard would have the best intentions and even if the new formed ai will live up to shepards ideals - the people will still s**t their pants out of fear.

at this point, shepards essence might loose faith and crack.


even good intentions can leed to the horrible outcomes.

But the Leviathn still exist post Destroy, what happens when they start ensalving everyone again?

Well, except for the Stargazer scene. But if someone really, really wants to headcanon that some terrible disaster happens after that scene... yep, can't be disproven.

I disagree. I think its a very interesting choice, just unfortunately it's part of a scene that makes no sense.
Also it's a choice that's only really interesting if we don't get to know if we made the right one. The problem is, we have no idea what characters like Garrus would want to do, if they survived, so we end up with NO answers, which is far too few.

and honestly, that scene is so far in the future that if something horrible were to happen I'd just chalk it up to "They had a good run"

you cant take any of the ending at face value, why would you take the epilogue at face value?

Shepard is still alive in destroy.

He kicks their ****ing squid asses into extinction, because he's mother****ing Commander Shepard.

I mean, let me put it this way.

The Reapers nearly wiped out the Leviathans. The galaxy and Shepard wiped out the Reapers.

Therefore, Galaxy/Shepard > Leviathans.

The Leviathan are responsible for the Rachni wars, if they can do that just from a primitive form of indoctrination imagine what else they can do.
