synthesis is the least popular ending for a reason

Which is exactly why I find it so odd that that's your "new" option, with a higher EMS.

I'm not like synthesis either but I don't think it's an abomination...

People are uncreative and seek to restore the oppressive galactic governments to power by eliminating the only available catalyst of change that could be used for the best?

no, its what the reapers heve been trying to achieve

Rifneo you can't deny the synthesis EC slides show a positive future.

That they do, but try telling that to the ITers.

I'd try explaining the symbolism, but that never worked before. Most of you guys probably think the moral to Moby Dick was that whales are evil.

It's an abomination, because it strips away everything that makes us human/<other races here>.

What I don't get is, at what point did EDI become alive to even die in the Green Ending?

She was just a VI running on the EVA client. She was still on the Normandy.

Oh man, I'm getting off topic.

Green Ending = Catalyst scared that Shepard actually would destroy the reapers. Butters up Shep to think that this is ideal so that they don't die. Lesser of two evils, better than controlled which is better than being destroyed.

No, it doesn't. Everything is still its own self.

shepard lives destroy requires the highest EMS, if you were rating endings on how hard they were to achieve that would be the best

People like you think there's deep meaning to the way cerberus troops say "taking casualties".

Synthesis does not remove diversity. Krogan are still Krogan, Asari are still Asari, etc.

We built the Crucible, thus we earned it. As the Catalyst says, Synthesis is not something to be forced. We were ready for it.

In what way is the galaxy ready? 

Building the Crucible equated to hiding in a remote system and building a massive machine without understanding it based on the instructions left behind by the Protheans. 

This cycle did nothing special.

Last man standing,

Synthesis is to education as destroy is to ignorance.

This cycle actually completed it. No-one else has. And they united the entire galaxy (or at least enough of it) to reach the Citadel, something no-one else has done.

No, it doesn't. Everything is still its own self.

Incorrect. Everybody is at their peak of perfection. There is no further evolution, and there is no strive for a better existence. Essentially, there is no longer a need for society as a whole, because you're capable of doing it all on your own. And most importantly, power was given to the hands of children, who don't understand its responsibility and therefore, another war is inevitable.

I was referring to the last person in the thread arguing that Synthesis is a legitimate choice.


The idea is that all choices are legitimate, and that the Catalyst is asking for your help, an organic, because it lacks the proper ability to make a decision.

OP didn't ask for this

I take it he's against the entire theme of transhumanism that existed in Mass Effect 2.

Synthesis is not transhumanism. Remember "synthesized" leaves? Trees are not Human,to my knowledge.
Synthesis is forced transorganiclife.

This seems relevant.  But the epilogue slides don't show negative stuff, so it must be all great!

SO, the words of someone you made a mistake are to be regarded as truth.

Huskification is not synthesis.

No they are not.
