Destroy, it is the closest one resembling taking the Reapers out on a football field and shooting them in the back of the head.

[Chchchchicken]

Synthesis, for the hilarity. In my headcannon Husks, Reapers and all the people of the galaxy sing campfire songs while holding hands! Also, s'mores! :innocent:

[Crazeegamer]

Control, because it was blue and blue is my favorite color.. I was kind of confused on what the kid was telling me.. so I said "huh I like blue let's go blue"

[Mike 9987]

Control. After the entire destruction of the relay system and citadel, I don't see how anything can just be "rebuilt." I like to believe my control shepard helps clean up the galaxy and keeps it safe until reaper technology becomes obsolete. At this point, the races can fend for themselves. Therefore, the reapers will either leave or be destroyed. My shepard has always been about saving the maximum amount of people, and control does that perfectly while still letting each person maintain their individuality.

Refuse.

'Cause [darn] you Starbrat and your [darn-tootin'] logic.

I did choose control.

Out of all the endings it meant only one more sacrifice would be made.

[Aaleel]

Destroy for several reasons, biggest being...

I didn't buy the kids whole Organics vs. Synthetics argument, the only synthetic threat I saw to the galaxy was reapers. So I eliminated them plain and simple. Destroy was the only option where the galaxy was guaranteed to never have to deal with a reaper threat ever again. Control and Synthesis were just hoping things would work out.

Refuse isn't really an option because just standing aside and allowing the reapers to reap to their hearts delight and continue the cycle was not an option.

And I don't really consider MEHEM an option from a role playing perspective because from what I read it's the only ending you get when you install it. So there is no Catalyst and therefore you never actually make a choice or pick it, you just get it.

Dead horse flogging arguments about the quality/logic of the endings aside…

Ty Shepard chose Synthesis because, while Synthesis was a dramatic change to all, he believed the removal of conflict between organic and synthetic was the only way to guarantee a lasting peace. 
Destroy came at too high a cost for him, especially if it were only a matter of time before Synthetics rose again and destroyed organics as predicted.Control he dismissed as he felt he couldn’t trust himself with that level of personal power.

Evelyn Shepard chose Destroy because she was all out of bubblegum. Sorry Geth, thanks for the help and all, but there is no way she was going to pass up the chance to destroy the Reapers once and for all. You will be mourned and never forgotten.

I’m doing a Paragon playthrough and can see Control being the choice she makes when she gets there. We'll see how she feels when presented with the options.

Destroy, since I'm a genocidal maniac who doesn't love technology.

But I believe peace can be achieved with out forcibly 'ascending' everyone, and if synthesis is inevitable, I'd rather the galaxy achieve it on their own terms. Head canon goes something like destroy, Shepard survives, comes back to tell them about the reapers motives and start advocating synthetic rights (though people would be confused as to why she sacrificed them in the first place), work towards a non-violating form of synthesis, and then we go out on an adventure and find the knowledge of the galaxy. And then a lot of blue babies.

That's more appealing to me.

If you're wondering why I didn't just choose control, it's because I don't feel like becoming a galactic overlord, that ain't my style.

Synthesis

Primary Reasons

- The Reapers are slaves and thus innocent, this ending frees them instead of killing them or keeping them enslaved. They're shown to be magnanimous creatures as they help with the rebuilding efforts.

- Synthesis is the anti-thesis of destruction. It is life. It cures all sickness and frailty throughout the galaxy. We see that it's even cured Joker in that he can support EDI's body weight now.

- It's the only ending where Joker and EDI actually have a good shot at being a long-lasting couple, partly due to the above.

- You won't lose EDI. Which is good, because if she's gone, then she's gone forever. (She makes this point in ME2, that every new quantum blue box creates a new personality. A new quantum blue box wouldn't be her.)

- The free-willed Reapers are the best defence against whatever creatures out there want to enslave, consume, or destroy the galaxy. Getting rid of the Reapers is a death sentence for the entire galaxy. You're basically getting rid of a friendly apex predator (the Reapers) in favour of unfriendly ones (the leviathans, and more) who see you as prey.

- Organic entities are provided with a way to backup their minds and upgrade their bodies, or even swap bodies around. This opens the door to immortality and being whatever you desire.

- Synthetics obtain the ability to truly feel emotion in ways they never have before. This creates a greater understanding of organics.

- The galactic consensus creates an era of peace and understanding. As people are able to share and comprehend one another's feelings on any given matter.

- Synthesis is (as far as I recall) the only ending where the Reapers share the knowledge and culture of all past civilisations, thus enriching the galactic community.

- It's the only ending where Kasumi is properly reunited with her once lost love.

- It removes the need for constant competition between peoples as it provides an equal footing for everyone. All benefits are shared between all of the races. One person is separated from another based upon choice rather than limitation. (Yes, this ties into other things above, but I think it deserved to be fleshed out as a point.)

- Finally, the only way to "win" a war is with the least amount of lives lost. War should never be about murderous ego-boners (down that path is the end of us all).

- Oh, and a headcanon one just for the funsies. Reaper tech likely includes how to terraform. This means that you now have a place for all those krogan babies! And there are going to be lots of krogan babies!

And those are my reasons.

Is not to play.. aye!!!
Ditto on that...

I refused them all..for many reasons..
To make those kinds of decisions for a whole Universe, without discussion, is terrible..I watched on Youtube, when the controversy started, and sadly an a wee angry, I could not in good integrity,  choose any of them..for when I play I am my Female Shepard..None of my Shepard's could choose..to make decisons that would effect everyone, especially ones close to you, and kill others you care about also..So NO.. none of them...The EC refusal, close but no cigar..
My Shepard deserved better and got it.. The Citadel party was good, nice gift, but it still did not make right all these illogical for one person to decicde, for all races, so called ending "choices"
Genocide, a helmet, a breathe, abandoned friends..no it was all crazy ...
The only ending for me, that let me complete the series properly at last,, to feel completed, rectified, and right, was MEHEM!!!

[Auld Wulf]

I can actually support MEHEM (and I've recommended it to those whom I've felt needed it), but I still dislike the death of the Reapers within. They're autonomous creatures who've been forced through horrors via the mind control of the Catalyst. They deserve their chance to be free and atone.

Edit: I'm like Captain Vimes, I suppose. I just want to save everyone. I like that sickness and frailty is cured in Synthesis, but I could forsake that and view MEHEM as no less. But I also want to save the Reapers, now that I know the truth of them. Leviathan will continue to exist, no matter what, so we know that the Reapers are slaves. As such, I want to save them. They deserve to have one voice for them, at least.

Not everyone can or wants to be Sam Vimes, though. Not everyone can or wants to save everyone. Still, I'd like MEHEM so much more if I could.

I choose destroy all the time every time. Why? Reapers dead. We can build our future without the threat of the repears

Control--reapers still alive
Synthesis--reapers still alive
Refuse--the reapers win. The next cycle reapers are gone.

But now you've got the krogan and Leviathans, not to mention any number of wars that might devastate the wounded galaxy. Why not have the Reapers no longer be a threat, and able to in fact help? There is wisdom in harnessing the strengths of your enemy.

Wrex will keep the Krogan in line and the Leviathans aren't the least bit threatening, they're like Reapers without the bada**.

Besides the Reapers don't deserve to survive.

[DecCylonus]

I chose Destroy.

1) The consequences were terrible, but the consequences of Control or Synthesis were worse. I set out to free the galaxy from the Reapers. The last thing I want is to become the new Reaper overlord. I also will not subject the galaxy to synthesis without their consent.
2) The deaths of EDI and the Geth were tragic, but they all signed up to give the last full measure to the war effort. Their sacrifice will be honored.

What number of wars? Leviathan can be dealt with by destroying the orbs. Sabatoging the genophage stops the Krogan. Or if you cured the genophage, just create it again.

The only wisdom in harnassing your enemies power is the power to destroy your enemy, the reapers

[apascone]

My choice: Destroy

Reason: Simple i personally believe in giving people the opportunity to fail or succeed on their on merit. I don't think they should be forced to synthesize because it will eventually happen anyway or because one person thinks its the best choice. If eventually people come to the realization that to synthesize with synthetics then that's their choice but I won't make it for them.
Control gives shep the power to become a dictator and I agree with the saying "absolute power corrupts absolutely" and shep may start out doing what he believes is right but what's to say that after a few thousand years he sees all the wars and say maybe the star brat was right after all.

Just do what you planned to do and end it for good
