I came to the conclusion that every one who complains about the ending of Lost did not understand a thing that happened. Like, did they tie up all lose ends? No. Did they explain everything? No. Did they tie up the story? Yes sir. And that's the most important thing, they ended the story/journey. That's why the ending to Mass Effect doesn't bug me, it's the end of Shepard's journey, and to be frank, the last decision really made me think. I spent an hour pondering and reflecting on just what the outcomes meant to the galaxy. Do I take over the Reapers and risk getting having power corrupt me? Do I destroy all life and implement synthesis and start life all over, and in fact, become God? (Atleast that's what I thought the synthesis ending would do). Or do I just destroy the Reapers, screw over the Quarians who I just reuinited with the Geth, and just pray we don't start another war? It really made me sit down and think. I really felt like I was Shepard at that moment and the fate of the galaxy rested in my hands; not Shepard's (Which is why the indoctrination thoery is silly to me).
