My preferred ending choice is Destroy.

Given the opportunity I think Control would be my second choice, with much hesitation.

Synthesis....oh Synthesis. No.

[Felya87]

MEHEM is not a chance for me, since I'm on PS3. so my ending is destroy with Citadel happening post game.

Preferred Ending: destroy/citadel
Second Choice:refuse
Explanation for Second Choice:is the only logical choice, without metagaming. none of my Shepard would ever became friend with reaper-squid. destroy them, or die tryng.

control would mean going against everything said by Shepard to TIM. no sense. we have no proof during ALL the game that is possible control the reaper without being indoctrinated.
even if Control would be possible, I don't think any of my sheprad would be ok with it.
no one should be in control of those abomination that are the reapers.

let's not speak about Sintesy. how could Shep melt together people with the reaper?!?!?is just an abomination. and the first one that should be angry about it is EDI. she say something about the reapers being an abomination. she didn't want to became like them. she changed her programs to be less attached to her "surviving" programs.
and in that case too, we have no "good" example of fusion of organic and sinthetic (overlord, anyone?) a part from crazyness and indoctrination if fusing with reaper tech.(sorry, english is not my first Language)

1st Choice: Stop at the Citadel DLC, right before Cronos. (yeah OP, I know it's not what you asked for, but it is my preferred ending).
2nd choice: Destroy.

I don't give a rat's ass about Shepard surviving or not. For me, she's a goner as soon as the pipe explodes. And the Geth and EDI die as well.
I simply don't buy the "inevitability" of the tech sing and its "inevitable" bad outcome, as well as the "inevitability" of Synthesis. Or that all organic life will be wiped out, if the Reapers aren't there to save them from themselves. As if. Rarely heard such an utter BS.

IMO the Galaxy will be a better place without the Reapers hanging around for whatever reason. It doesn't need a big bro or to be fundamentally changed. Let it evolve, freely, at its own pace.

So I shot the pipe.

If destroy weren't available then it would be dash-quit/Ctrl+ALT+DEL.

Synthesis is the best, ain't?

OFCOURSE!!

Sorry, I didn't like your post, so I downloaded a mod to change it.

Sounds good to me.  It means you can think for yourself.  I'm going to go so far and say that you are supporting Yestare7's point.

Fantastic!  Thanks buddy!:)

+1   EDI GLADLY gives her life in the destroy ending.

[ThinkSharp]

Preferred Choice: Synthesis
Second Choice: Refuse
Reason for Second:

I believe that all of the endings are heroic victories--in their own ways--including, and not least of all, Refusal.
I've written this in other threads, but Refusal is the only ending that I feel completely "comfortable" with; it's the one ending I believe realistic for Shepard. I think there is wisdom in not trusting the Catalyst, even if it means forsaking the Crucible.

The consequences of Refusal are drastic, but it is the ending where Shep sticks to his guns whole-heartedly. He does not bow to the influence or intimidation of the Catalyst. He holds autonomy and the survival of an unbending will and spirit above physical survival. I don't completely agree with the line of thinking in Refuse, but I do believe it is much more than "giving up" or neglecting duty. It's a choice I respect.  

(Do we get to defend our least liked ending next? That could be fun...)

This.

[Nykara]

Remove control? I guess I choose destroy then. Not going to force the entire population of the galaxy to change just because I hit a button. In that case I would see the loss of Edi and the Geth as acceptable because that only effects a small population in relation to the entire galaxy.

[SpamBot2000]

Damn right my favorite ending was removed. About time to move it in.

Where's my official MEHEM on all platforms? Or my Refusal Victory?

I want a playable game. This is not it.

[TheGreatDayne]

Preferred Choice: Synthesis
Second Choice: Low EMS Destroy
Why: I'm not sure... I think I am bipolar with choices...
And, I like the drama of Low EMS Destroy! We won, but at the price of getting some of our tech blown up! Yeah!

[N7-RedFox]

Synthesis and Control endings were both valid because they gave us closure. In Synthesis you KNOW Shepard dies and is dispersed. He can then be mourned.

In Control, you KNOW he dies but his consciousness gets downloaded into a Reaper shell. Again, this lets us know for sure what's going on.

Refuse - we know ALL advanced organics die because all that's left are Liara's beacons. A new cycle begins.

Destroy however, is totally frakked up. No one knows if Shepard will survive (post-breath-scene) or simply bleed out. And since Bioware has stated that Shepard will NOT be in ME4, then we get no closure at all thanks to that cliff-hanger. We can't mourn his passing nor can we get relief knowing Shep survived. Great....

Dead SHepards get closure.

Live Shepards get "implications"

Thanks Bioware.

As opposed to what most religions teach, mental inflexibility is not a virtue. If you aren't even willing to deal with a "what if" scenario, it's particularly telling.

Preferred Ending: Pull the plug on my console after, 'The best seats in the house.' Best ending already removed.

Second Choice: Destroy

Explanation for Second Choice: Since the StarBrat makes less sense than a bowl of cereal, and was written by what looks like a drunk writer who refutes his own story, Destroy is the only ending where the Geth, EDI and Shepard all live. Because that's how code works and that's how breathing works.

This exactly.  Best ending would have been an epilog that followed the best seats in the house.  I prefer things that inspire because there are way too many people looking for some artistic explanation where none exists.  Art, at its core is inspiring.  I see that scene with Anderson as a sort of passing of the torch from the old way of doing things to the new that had been created. 

Anderson and company (Hackett included in this), the Alliance, the Council, and the galaxy before all of this was stuck in the reaper vision of the future.  Tech based upon reaper tech and lives dictated by reaper cycles (even before they knew it).  And people were all stuck in this cycle and never really achieved much on their own or together.  The fight that was the hardest for Shepard was in getting everyone to realize the enemy existed, to feel they could fight the enemy, and to get everyone to work together.  Anderson was part of a galaxy that would no longer exist-one where even humans outside of Cerberus were more concerned with humans first and Turians for Turians, Asari for Asari, and so on.

And then we get to a part of the story that someone's pet monkey wrote.  The reapers were created by an AI kid created by big arrogant doofuses that I will never consider some sort of apex race.  They were morons and while maybe they deserved to be destroyed, did the galaxy really deserve to be continually destroyed in some experiment designed to fix the problem of idiots (the Leviathans)?  And then not only does Shepard turn stupid at the end, in Leviathan s/he also turns into a moron by wanting to be friends with these big arrogant doofuses.  Special.

[ElSuperGecko]

I'd feel pretty damn violated if my preferred ending was removed, since my preferred ending is headcanon.

You can believe in whatever ending you like, of course. That's up to you.

I was merely providing a counterpoint to the ridiculous assertion that all destroyers are close-minded. An assertion which, it seems, you also believe in.

Have fun with that.

You lose all credibility when you attempt to defend yourself by attacking religion.  Don't get me wrong I do see many religious organizations and their hierarchies as inflexible but that you are equating religious teaching with mental inflexibility is really off-putting.

You accuse someone of being intolerant by being intolerant. 

In full disclosure mode, I was given a fairly religious upbringing in a fairly strict church, but that church, inflexible as it was did change in some very dramatic ways.  I'm no longer a part of it (I have my beliefs), but every organization, including religious ones are reflections of the people they serve and vice versa.  Within the religion I grew up in there were people that thought outside the box, including many that believed that science and religion could work together in many ways, and could even be describing the same things, but in different ways (specifically on the issue of creation and even evolution).

Preferred Choice: Destroy

The destruction ending is the only one that kills the reapers and ends the cycle beyond a shadow of a doubt. It also affirms the freedom of organic life. And my Shepard promised Liara to always come back

Second Choice: Control

The Control ending maintains the status quo of the galaxy...more or less (I want to preserve the beautiful culture of the Asari, the scientific culture of the Salarians, etc.). I have several problems with control though (What will be left of Shepard? CatalystShep will be wielding unlimited power, danger of stagnation)
