Yes. We get and understand that. But it doesn't change the fact that its included in the games, its a possible canon and some people maybe even like that ending in particular. The world doesn't just magically alter itself to catter to your egos. Get. The. FCUK over it.

Part of me wants to point our the things that are wrong in this post.

The other part of me wants to shoot the first part of me for even considering gracing such drivel with a response.

And this is why a sequel of any kind would probably be a bad idea. Even if they canonize destroy, which I would approve of, it would prove critics right in their statement that the players' choices really didn't matter.

[dorktainian]

there is no sequel with synthesis. It's groundhog day.

How could a synthesis canon sequel work?

easy. it can't.

[Clayless]

Easy, they just make the conflict on a smaller scale (they would have to anyway, as one ending destroys the galaxy and the other has the Reapers still around) or they could just make the conflict on an inter-galactic scale.

[Galbrant]

Oh its easy all Bioware has to do is make one of the Catalyst freshly made Borg Drones go out and seek other galaxies to solve their own organic vs. synthetic problems by killing or assimilating them.

100 years later.

Green skin glow has worn off (temporary effect of Catalyst blast)
Husks can't reproduce, died off
Reapers have rebuilt and left
Humans and AI are now more understanding of each other, but conflicts still arise

Not that hard, really. It will all be hand-waved away.

Synthesis is to stupid a concept from a story point of view imo. It effectively ends the Mass Effect Universe.

I'm not a huge fan of Destroy but I believe it is the best candidate for any sequel, Given that the galaxy is in shambles after the Reaper crisis, I can imagine many conflicts over limited resources.

Conrad Verner, upon being asked to work on the Crucible after meeting Shepard on the Citadel, crunches numbers and data and individually uncovers the true purpose of the gigantic device.  However, the realisation comes all too late; the allied forces are committed.  Conrad seeks shelter deep underground in an attempt to escape the green blast, and remain the only true organic in the galaxy.

He emerges several days later to find a galaxy that is ruled by the Reapers, courtesy of Commander Shepard falling for the lies spewed by the Catalyst, overseeing a galactic-wide dictatorship of compliant organics, willing slaves providing an infinite supply of energy for the Reapers.

This is it.  This is Conrad's time.  Suiting up in his replica N7 armour, he comes out from his underground bunker.  Much to his surprise, he uncovers small pockets of isolated organics on far-slung worlds, who avoided the green blast by sheer luck.  It is up to Conrad to lead the resistance, to prove to Shepard that he does have it in him, and to save the organic species of the galaxy from the Synthetic threat once and for all.

Synthesis is nonsense, and no story could ever be built on nonsense.

Most well put answer to this.

Look. I'm ****ing sick and tired of seeing 'OOOO Synthesis is nonsense' 'Oooh! It came out of no where'..

If you are tired of it, then stop reading these forums. People won't stop ripping on Synthesis just because you say so. "The world doesn't magically alter itself to cater to your ego"

Shepard taught him what it takes to be truly extreme. I can dig it.

Doesn't it mainly come down to free will? Can feelings, emotions, and desires override knowledge?

Yes and yes. Which is precisely my point.

Apparently it does, Wreav will rebuild no matter what, no matter if the genophage is cured or not. To my knowlege thats the only case out of all the endings. But don't get it twisted none of the endings would make a good sequel. 

who cares if he builds or not? As if that somehow applies to his desires ( maybe krogan expansion and war if he doesn't get what he wants).


As far as not curing the genophage....the krogan die out if Wrex was their leader

Thats a problem because that will go against his character. Wreav is a traditional krogan Warlord! Everything that has been seen about him over 2 games says he will quickly instigate the krogan rebellions. To suddenly want to be a peaceful seems so out of character. Consider it  a smaller example of why I wouldn't want a ME game based on synthesis. To suddenly having to fix a conflict after an ending that is very happy and near utopic doesn't seems an ass-pull.
On a side note, your telling me the Krogan will die out in the synthesis ending if wrex died in me3 (genophage is not cured). However the genophage will be cured even if the player doesnt (in the synthesis ending) and then Wreav loses all bloodlust and simply rebuilds?

There is no room for canon in the Mass Effect Universe

This would complete invalidate ME3 and hilariously make the Catalyst look worse. It's supposed solution, one that it claims is an inevitability, proves only delays a human/synthetic conflict. Conflict may happen, but it must be due to the effects of synthesis, otherwise the Catalyst is an idiot.

I imagine it would result in some pretty awesome reaper-tech related powers.
Synthesis is stupid, but still.

[Dunmer of Redoran]

Doesn't work for two reasons:

1. There is no canon ending
2. Too much opposition to Synthesis as an ending

Control or Destroy keep the organics pristine and set things up for more.
