Straight forward story doesn't make a good story, quite the opposite actually.


First of all, that's a ridiculous statement. Straight forward stories can be good stories. There's many facets that goes in to what makes a good story - characters, setting, emotions, etc. You can know the outcome to a story going in, and it can still be good because of how it's told. Conversely, a story can have twists and turns galore and be an absolute trainwreck.

Destroy is the most straight-forward option because it was always the mission. It was always the plan. It was what we were aiming for. It was what we were told the Crucible would do. It does that, it ends the mission, and that's that. From a narrative standpoint, Destroy is the ending that requires the least amount of explaining. It just blew the Reapers up, life goes on.

The other endings introduce entirely different ideas that because of their radically different nature bring with them more baggage, i.e. more issues, inconsistencies with established lore, common sense issues, questions, logic...


Just because "it was the plan" doesn't mean its the most interesting

I've highlighted in your statement what makes the endings interesting, the only reason why you think its inconsistant is because it hasn't been fully explained yet, but thats the beauty of it, finding out what it all means.

I might also remind you that Destroy leaves the galaxy in the worst possible scenario restricting travel with the relays badly damaged, most of the remote one permanently without enough manpower to fix them, thus travel options would be very limited. (unless they go for the other galaxy option

Assuming it can't be MEHEM, I'd choose Destroy with high EMS; it's the ending that leaves the most possibilities open for sequels.

Not sure if you're trolling or just really bad at this.

Ah yes, synthesis. The choice of people whose overriding concern is robbing their fellow players of enjoyment.
