I'm sure a lot of other people are posting complaints, but I can't help it. I finished the game a few hours ago, and I'm still so angry.
Canon/plot holes aside, the emotional aspect of the endings are what bother me the most.
I can kill all Synthetics, and live (Maybe? Because that little shit points out that I'm part Synthetic, too), but the Geth and Edi would die. Both of whom I put a lot of time and effort into helping. The Geth and Quarians are at peace, and the Geth are helping them rebuild, survive/adapt, etc. My romantic interest was Tali, so even more so, I don't want to screw her over.
Or... I can kill myself at two different other consoles. Like, what the fuck was the point between the control and synthesis options? Either way I die, and the Control option implied the only thing I could do was to give a "last command" to the reapers. After that I cease to exist, to my understanding.
The more I think about it, the more I realize that I think the Synthesis ending (the one I picked originally) is the most insulting. It has me forcing the decision to change on everyone, even though the Geth and EDI prove synthetics can co-exist.
At least the Control choice doesn't involve me raping everyone/thing's DNA.
It's infuriating. I spend the whole game shoving peace, unity, cooperation and free will down everyone's throats, and fighting against TIM's attempt to control the reapers, and it turns out to be the best option.
And not to mention how, before today, I was really optimistic about future installments of the ME franchise. But with no Mass Relays, and being stuck in our neck of the woods, I don't give a fuck. All the fleets are stuck around earth, we have one habitable planet in the vicinity, and we can't feed Quarian and Turians. Yay more fucking death and bleakness.
Fuck the future. I didn't do all that shit for the next cycle. I did it for myself, and the people I cared about in the games, and for THIS cycle. ARGH. Ok. I'm done. I'm just about to the point where I start nonstop screaming and cursing. Sorry.
