Who says Stargazer is on a planet?

 

Even if it's just a space station, keeping that thing on a stable orbit around a planet which is orbiting very closesly with another sizeable planet around their shared center of mass, seems... problematic.

Who says it's a planet? Remember artificial sky on the Citadel?

Oh, so it isn't Stargazer after all, it's just Artificial-sky-gazer.

Could this be a hint that the entire ME story was just a grandpa and his kid watching a movie on a really big screen?

Look what we uncovered!

It was a backdrop on the set of some movie. The guy and kid were rehearsing their lines

Planetary configuration in last minute of the game seems impossible ---> ME story just a movie CONFIRMED!

Bioware takes our choices seriously. This is the only way they can.

Dumb question time since I just started playing the trilogy: Does the topic imply that Indoctrination Theory has been disproven or that BioWare never confirmed or denied it?

The second - they never confirmed or denied it. Dev tweet mentioned that Shepard's breath scene is on the Citadel, so some adjustments to IT has to be made.

It's rather clear that IT is merely a fan theory. It's just not Bioware's style.

 

If this was Dead Space, I would buy it. (very close to the real ending anyway...)

It could be a moon.

[SuperJogi]

It could be a moon.

 

A moon on a very low stable orbit around a planet which is orbiting very closesly with another sizeable planet around their shared center of mass, seems... even more problematic than a space station.

ME:Next either follows that silly Andromeda rumor circulating, or exists during the gap between ME1 and ME2, if not at some point during the Trilogy or perhaps just before it begins. At an earlier point and without connection to other characters, it allows us to stay in the world we know and love without any or any major changes, and still allow us to explore new worlds.

The problem is then: 'how do these new worlds factor into the trilogy moving forward?' . . .Maybe we visit the Raloi, Vorcha, and even yahg? We may see new species, but we have species already we know precious little about...and next to nothing in the case of the Raloi, who are easy to miss and could be considered a 'new species' to most players of the Mass Effect series. We could get both, with a race on the fringe of the galaxy that is not a space-faring people and is thus ignored by the Reapers and most everyone. The Milky Way is pretty big.

When you see something that appears to be a little off... write it down. Things that are more than a little off... write down and underline. When you finish ME3 see if you subscribe to any of the prevailing theories.

Why does the Catalyst resemble that doomed vent kid? Was this ever explained?

Lots of speculations for everybody!

Never confirmed or denied. The content was masterfully created so that it gives everyone what they want to hear, in perfect line with their own interpretation.

"The reapers get that image from Shepard's mind" - Bioware devs at some gaming panel

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

I absolutely know that the default start for ME-Next will not be synthesis. Why? Look at the default starts for ME2 and ME3. I chose it on my last play through. Synthesis is the "Happy Ending." Everyone is happy. So what that Shepard is dead. Even the reapers are happy. EDI is alive and not alone. Major Coats is happy. The Asari and Turians are rebuilding. The Krogan are happy. The geth are happy. The Quarians are happy. Varren and pyjaks living together. No, this will not be the start of ME-Next.

 

The start of ME-Next will be the galaxy having rebuilt from Low EMS Destroy. Dead rachni, Dead geth. No Omega. No Leviathan. Or maybe the Leviathan will be the next big bad for our superhero to save the galaxy from doom! And its name shall be Corypheus!

[Marolf]

Destroy as canon.

 

Imho the other options would make it quite problematic to introduce a bigger, more badder an even older villan.

Pick Control or Synthesis means, the Reapers with all their technology, massive fleets and firepower are still around. They would help to rebuild the galaxy in a way shorter amount of time, then otherwise. And they would be the backbone of the defence forces.

 

Maybe if ME:Next is really set to happen in a different galaxy, well that means either Control or Synthesis to possess, quick research a technology to colony a galaxy far far far away and start there a new. But then the question is, why do we know of an old enemy arising? and why does the new Mako still have wheels then?

 

So Destroy with a dark age of slowly recovering and rebuilding what was lost in the aftermath and ME:Next in the middle of it.

To explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life (or we just lost contact long ago), to boldly go where no.... yeah.... man, krogan, asari..... the ME:Next would definitly include humans, especially as the playable character, right? So the Milky Way in some decades or centuries after Destroy Reapers and nothing else.

 

OR 5.000 years after Control Option and the old enemy is ShepAI himself going rogue.

[Marolf]

The AI obvioulsy knows fear and is doesn't want to be destroyed:

 

The Catalyst lied and tries to trick us by telling that picking Destroy annihilates all synthetics, including you Shepard, because of Lazarus and all that shiny armor upgrades you bought and installed.

 

But (enough EMS required) being at the core of the red wave and survive (breathing scene) means, that it only effects reaper technology, or software, so sorry geth, you are screwed anyway, but sacrifices have to be made. Even Shep states this in the games.

 

That's why he presents the other options in a more positive manner.

[Silvair]

Honestly you could go in a way for ALL of them to stay viable: Simply don't actually SHOW Shepard.  You can show derelict reapers from the war, can show geth but leave it up in the air if they are the original synthetics or new models made to replace them, and leave it vague if the Reapers are still around.

If you went with Destroy, nothings stopping people from making NEW synthetics to replace the old ones.

 

The rest involve Shepard merging with them somehow.

I see it as covering all bases.

doesn't matter what ending you pick...every ending ends up you (Shepard) dying as well as everyone else.  If this pathfinder story for ME4 is true, then it makes sense since humanity is now an endangered species as well as krogans, salarians, turians, and the blue chicks (forgot how what they are called)...

Yeah that's the main problem.  I'm still going with the logical assumption that the krogan ate everyone as all of galactic civilization was stranded on a ravaged Earth.  I mean the Citadel was over Earth, though full of corpses, so they could also use that, but still, no mass relays strands everyone there with scarce resources.

Too bad Aethyta wasn't there to tell the story about the Krogan who drank a liquefied turian...

[SwobyJ]

A lot of Destroy.

Some of Control.

A bit of Synthesis.

 

Mass Effect: Andromeda. Yippie ki-yay!
