Life is a ******, Shepard is not Mass Effect Jesus, Reapers win just like they did the other 100,000 harvests before. It would have been much better than the pandering and the condescending illusion of choice we ended up with. Might even have been considered a decent ending, and have earned the respect and admiration of gaming journos on the web.
Mass Effect 3 shouldn't have had a "win" ending.

The Reapers do win if you chose refuse.
If you follow IT, then the Reapers win in control and synthesis as well.

chose refuse.
chose.
previous races didn;t get a choice, that's kind of what I'm saying. If you could choose between a few bad choices, or no choice at all, which ME3 would you prefer?

Witch ending is win? All ending is,I am your enemy overload, pick how you want to win, because we so OP there is no way you can win if we not surrender for no logical reason.

This has NOTHING to do with ME:A.
Yes it is. it's mass effect same universe and it's sequel. And it's long time we remanded how bad ME:3 ending is.

Or never have given that final choice at all, since I feel that seems to be the greatest area of contention to begin with. Nothing wrong with EMS, just make all the little choices across the trilogy accumulate to a scaleable win/no win scenario. Defeat them or don't, and that's it.
Problem with not winning at all is that we'd have to be introduced to new star clusters, civilizations and aliens to...oh wait.

I destroyed the reapers. I win. Excellent
You don't destroy reapers. Reapers allowed Shepard to push kill button.

What button did Shepard push? From what I remember, Shepard has to shoot the tube

How do fewer choices make an RPG better?

Who cares what friggin little gaming journos on the web think? As far as i remember they were falling all over each with praise and defense of the endings we got.
Reapers win? That would have been lame. And it wasn't that this cycle suddenly figured it all out and were able to do what other cycles could not. It was a cumulative effect. You had many cycles adding to the crucible, but just not finishing it in time.
It was the effort of countless species reaching back into the dark places of time to get us here. This cycle did nothing without the help of many previous cycles.

Nope.
Why not? You build a device, defy the Reapers' agenda, and overload them into oblivion (with blowback, like every other ME ending).
Sounds like a win to me.

I felt nothing (except for anger), it wasn't a victory. More like it was a failure.

Shepard lost. Reapers win, it makes no sense to surrender because deus ex machina.
We not win, reapers let us "win". Big difference.

I guess it's worth noting that the reapers resist the docking of the Crucible. It's only until it actually joins up with the Citadel that the Catalyst suddenly realizes it can do something else to get what it wants. Of course, if Shepard dillydallies and just stands there before making a decision, the reapers destroy the Crucible and there's a critical mission failure.

The countless lives you saved across the galaxy and the Reaper carcasses scattered everywhere disproves your assertion of "failure".

Yeah ok, well go tell this to this 4k pages thread...oh wait it has been locked for some reason.
nobody gives a f about "countless lives" in a videogame. I can play like a retard and I'll still get these three abominations that will "save countless lives". I'm sure people who wrote the ending for this game are so proud that ME3 final moments are synonym of Failure.
