If you could save EDI and the Geth (with Reapers still dying of course) but Shep woudl ALWAYS die would you accept this ending? 

I would (since with the lack of reunion scene and that stupid gasp buried in rubble Shep might as well be dead. Probably would've been kinder).

I'm just curious.

Yes.

In that case I would have had Shepard sacrifice his life to save EDI & the Geth. Destroy was never about Shepard surviving for me. It was about accomplishing the mission he has had since the first game, and in freeing the galaxy from the threat of the Reapers for all time. That Shepard could survive High EMS Destroy just turned out to be a bonus.

In fact if Shepard had instead survived in all versions of Control and Synthesis, while dying in all versions of Destroy, I'd still choose Destroy every time.

[Megaton_Hope]

Might as well.

[Morlath]

Yes.

Extremists and bad experiences aren't enough to make me hate an entire race.

Shepard as in "The Shepherd". Mass Effect is an allegory. And yes, it's stupid that Shepard actually lives on High-EMS Destroy Ending. How the hell is Shepard alive? The Crucible and the Citadel exploded when the Citadel beamed the Destroy energy to the Mass Relays and that's located at the Citadel Tower where Shepard really is at. I have no idea on how Shepard survived or is even breathing. Are the barriers around the Citadel able to self-sustain itself even after the Citadel is destroyed(The barriers are used to keep oxygen within)? Or did Shepard somehow fell back to Earth? Did Shepard really die back at the Beam? Or is Shepard dreaming the whole ending, and suddenly wakes up to find that he/she is the last survivor?

[Ryzaki]

Yeah I just headcanon that the citadel life support is somehow working near the decision parts. I mean... =/

[KingZayd]

Yeah.

[Argolas]

Yes. I initially picked Destroy without knowing that Shepard would survive.

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

I went into ME3 thinking Shepard would likely die in the end. My mission from ME1 was to put an end to the reapers. I knew Shepard's story arc was over. I was going to complete my mission. I sacrificed EDI to do so. It turned out I survived. If EDI were to have survived and Shepard died. I would have been fine with it. If the Geth had survived, I'd have been fine with it.

However, my objection is the way Shepard would have gone out. I had fought my way to the conduit, shot The Illusive Man, and I was awaiting the epic ending.... I had the terms of the ending dictated to me by some kid I was dreaming about that I'd seen in a vent, and had seen blown to bits. Then I got these red explosions on my screen, the Normandy crashed, and I got this gasp of air. I thought I did something wrong and I watched it on Youtube. All the endings were the same except for the color of the explosions on your screen. Five years for that. Shepard's legacy ruined in 10 minutes. All of the alternate characters I created just in the four months prior wasted. I couldn't bear to do it again.

[HiddenInWar]

Yep.

[IMNOTCRAZYiminsane]

Yes and no

No because i wanted my Shepard to live off the credits with Garrus But with the breath scene i just want my Shepard to rest (imma be mean) I don't care about people who wanted to die I wanted my Shepard to live all i wanted was the rubble to move and have some random person say "we found Shepard" but no instead they have to leave it to speculation so people can headcanon shep lives or dies no..just no! Then we have the explosion of the citadel that makes Shepard alive headcanon stupid if the person doesn't want to believe in IT anyway!

So I'm going to go with yes, because compare to the breath scene at least having the Geth and EDI live is better

[Excella Gionne]

Shepard surviving is totally out of context. I mean I would have loved to have my Shepard alive too, but due to all of this nagging about Post-ending is getting ridiculous. I realized that if Shepard did live in the end and they extended from there, that would make the other two ending pointless. You can't be unfair. Shepard surviving in your ending is up to you to continue on however you like.

It was clearly Marauder Shields or Clone Shep who kills Shep post Destroy.  I vote Clone Shep who faked his own death.  Real Shep fell from Space and survived and you guys believe Clone Shep died from a simple fall out of the Normandy within Earth's atmosphere?

I don't understand why actually having the scene of someone finding Shepard is so important to many people. No judgments, but I don't. Why isn't it enough to be "Shep lived!" and assume someone came and dragged him out? If other people want to headcanon it's the last breath, why does that take away from your believing he lived?

[Galifreya]

Absolutely.

Shepard was nothing but meat and tubes. The Clone Shepard fell right into a wall at high speed. I'm sure the Clone's dead. Plus, there's no oxygen where Clone Shepard fell.

[FOX216BC]

This would mean Shep dies in every ending?
So i go with no on this one.

[Saito404]

No. I hate "Hero must die" concept.

[Slayer299]

Yes, the point of Destroy was to stop the Reapers, losing EDI and the Geth (well, EDI) was sad. So if sacrificing Shepard's life would do the same thing minus EDI dying this time than its still good.

Shep fell from space and magically survived reentry.  There shouldn't have been any meat and tubes to begin with.  If he can survive that then by god Clone Shep can survive a fall, lol.

[Usefull_idiot]

Yes. All I ever cared about was slapping Harby in the face.

[Ticonderoga117]

Why must death be a requirement? Aren't the trillions of dead people enough?

If I did "well enough" through the series, the only ones who should be killed in the ending are the Reapers, because they are the problem.

[Yestare7]

Absolutely not. I'm not throwing my life away for a bunch of Robots!
EDI dying is additional motivation to go for destroy.

I've got some Shepards who are so tired with war and death that they choose Control/Synthethis more in the hopes it stops one more death than anything else. They're so burnt out that they don't even have the mental energy to kill the enemy.
