In the end of all games, don't you still 'defeat the bad guy'?
Problem is with ME trilogy is that the bad guy was a concept being enacted by AI. All your choices about whether so and so lives earlier mean squat all if in reality the solution to the problem is turning something on or off. I think the idea of ME3 wasn't choice at all, it was the illusion of choice. Could you even fail when launching the final assault on Earth? I mean die mid flight in space or lose half your team while getting there like ME2 because you made bad decisions? That wasn't obvious. It seemed to be, get to the readiness line and just go for it. Even then, some of the choices you made in ME3 were completely undone by the 'decision' you made at the end.
Hmm, pie.
