      when I first played the game, I didn't know that a thing as war assets even exists, and I assumed this was one of the 3 canon endings. Though my ending was slightly better, Anderson didn't get shot and the crucible deployed with no issues etc. I actually loved it, the reapers would have destroyed 100% of life in the galaxy, Shepard destroyed the reapers for good, but at the cost of 90% of life in the galaxy. The galaxy is in shambles but they can repopulate and rebuild. I mean all characters even accepted that they all might die fighting the reapers, everyone was ready to give up and let the next cycle happen, and the next and the next for eternity. The fact that Shepard even got the chance of saving 10% of life in galaxy is enough of a relief. I honestly like it way more than Shepard just sacrificing himself, killing all reapers and then everyone 100% survives, it's way too cheesy and too happy of an ending after a war with THE FUCKING *REAPERS* . The enemy that was hyped up for 6 years over 2 whole games.
      Especially if you get the "best" ending where Shepard survives too. God, it's so shit I deliberately never reach over 3100 war assets in any of my playthroughs. The fact that bioware confirmed Shepard survives and will appear in mass effect 4 gives me no hope for the upcoming game. It's gonna be such a sappy and cheesy story if the rumors are actually true, though bioware hasn't made a good game since me3, so I can pretty much already predict that mass effect 4 might even make andromeda look like a masterpiece in retrospect.
      Shepard sacrificing himself so that the galaxy at least has a *chance* at rebuilding is bittersweet, 90% bitter, 10% sweet. And I liked it. It's a great ending, it's depressing, but with hope, and I much prefer it over everyone just surviving and living happily ever after in a stupid utopia where everyone becomes best friends forever.
      No indoctrination theory needed. Reapers are objectively 100% undefeatable by normal weaponry. There was no possible way for the galaxy to win without some secret mega superweapon. Everyone keeps crying how it's a tonal 180 or whatever and these people are beyond dumb, there was no 180, this is the ending that was set up since the first 10 minutes of mass effect 1. Saving everyone and walking away freely with no concequences is completely off the table. There was no other choice, you either let the cycle reach it's predestined conclusion and lose or you actually end the reaper threat forever while sacrificing a massive ammount of lives in the process.
      People who legitemately thought the crucible would just be a powerful deathstar laser are either completely stupid and media illiterate or have completely missed all the set up and foreshadowing that was force fed to you before you even fucking landed on Eden Prime.

      @Scratchin' Artist Synthesis is genocide of every living thing in the galaxy because you forcibly and without consent change them all into a different species eliminating their original forms. Synthesis is machine logic, the same logic that makes the machines indifferent to the widescale misery, terror and death the cycles create. Synthesis appeals to the machines because it creates a static state. Life is not about stasis and constantly evolves, but machines don't have the capacity to understand that because they don't get that life is a journey and not a destination. Synthesis is by far the worst ending imo.

In the next cycle, those who build upon the ruins of Citadel space will wonder if Shepard and the Reapers were one and the same, or worse yet, if the Reapers were actually the good guys and Shepard is the one who destroys everything every 50,000 years. Hell, maybe one day, someone will build their own Zhu's Hope on Earth and wonder if the Shepard was the real destroyer all along.

I was suspicious of it from the start. And i thought the results might look something like this. So i like this ending a lot. It's tragic, it's brutal, it's sacrificial, it's genocidal. But it's still better than total extinction. And that scene with Hacket in the dark, lamenting about what this victory had cost for the galaxy. Good stuff. Thanks for showing this.

Anyone who had cybernetic augmentations were killed. Any and all geth/AIs/Reapers were destroyed. Basically, only the fully organic beings survived.
      With the Mass Relay network destroyed, the Quarians and Turians that were on Earth would starve to death, not to mention that the entire Quarian race would be wiped out due to their involvement with cybernetics.
