If rewriting (i.e. brainwashing) the Heretic Geth is a Paragon choice, one would have to assume that Control (i.e. brainwashing the Reapers) would also be a Paragon choice.

Unplug your computer before Glowjob shows up is Paragon. If you have to bother with the nonsense endings, then Destroy and Refuse are paragon

It was a Paragon choice. Perhaps it didn't fit the prior morality of a Paragon, but I assure you it was labeled as such.

 What's the fascination with paragonism that compels Destroyers to insist that it's the paragon choice, anyway?


Paragonism itself is nothing admirable. Without some significant doses of renegade in the mix, your Shepard is just a lawful idiot and a highly unprincipled individual (courtesty the inconsistency of the P/R system itself). Doubly so if Destroy were to be passed as the Paragon choice, because after letting countless dangerous individuals walk free to focus on saving lives immediately, committing genocide to stop the next bad guy is like the ultimate flip-flop. If you're going to embrace your inner Machiavelli at that level, what's the point of refusing to do the same on a much lower scale?

If Destroy is paragon, it's an example of paragonism at it's worst. As renegade, it fits your principle in respectable ways.

You are deluding yourself if you think it's not Paragon. It's in the upper right corner of the dialogue wheel, which is where Paragon responses/choices are found. You get Paragon points for choosing it.

Having tea with the Reapers and talking out your differences before politely asking them to leave the galaxy is the hidden, true Paragon ending.

Patching a malfunctioning piece of software doesn't seem that horrible to me.

Wow...someone's acting a little :o

Maybe replay the mission, see what Legion says about it, etc. No matter how much you deny it though, it is Paragon. And so Paragon are people that would be okay with brainwashing AI's.

There is no such thing as brainwashing an A.I., unless you believe that patching software to fix some bugs is brainwashing, which I find an utterly ridiculous belief.

There Heretic Geth faction was a result of a simple math error. Rewriting the geth simply means patching their software to fix that math error.

Legion also said (in that mission) treating his people equally to organics is racist. See link in my sig.

People here do it all the time and think that makes them moral - LOL!

+1.  Enemies dead as doornail, and only some bots keel over. Best ending.

Best ending, sure, but it's most definitely the LEAST Paragon ending.

If anything, Destroy is completely in line with the Renegade train of thought. Synthesis = Paragon and Control can go either way.

Anyone who thinks synthesis is paragon has no concept of bioethics and basic human rights...
It is by far the most abhorrent thing you can do in the trilogy...

Why do people keep confusing 'Paragon' with 'what I like the most'? I get that a lot of people are into destroy but sacrificing people to destroy the enemy? That's not Paragon. It is Renegade. It's what Renegades have always done. Sparing the enemy so as to spare your own side too? That's Paragon. It's what Paragons do throughout the trilogy. They spare lives, they don't mind taking risks, they aren't obsessed with taking out enemies and they absolutely don't sacrifice people if any other option is presented.

Seriously, it's fine if you like Destroy, but if you're claiming it's Paragon, you have to show how it corresponds to Paragon principles and action patterns.

Synthesis = altruistic idealism

Paragon = altruistic idealism


Please tell me how Synthesis is NOT Paragon (our personal headcanon of Synthesis is no valid argument).

Boy, it sounds like someone's been reading Rand and interpreting it poorly.
