Mass Effect 3 Ending Discussion

[Vampyr]

Hey guys I know I'm a slowpoke, but I finally finished the game!

The ending was bad. Really bad.

And it wasn't bad because it was "sad", or because I died or anything like that. It was bad because it didn't make any sense with the rest of the lore. It was bad because of gaping plot holes. It was bad because it ignored your decisions.

It isn't even an opinion that the ending was bad. It was quantitatively bad. I can give you facts as to why it was bad. Anyone who says it wasn't bad is wrong.

Anyway, I chose the "control the reapers" ending. I didn't choose synthesis because it didn't seem right to make people into things they aren't. I didn't choose destruction because I don't accept genocide (killing the Geth) as a "good" ending. It bothers me that that ending is considered the "good" one - the one you have to have the most assets to unlock.

I've been reading into the indoctrination theory. What a longshot that is. If Bioware does end up using it in the epilogue I'm pretty sure it will be due to fan reaction and not because they actually planned on that being the ending.
