I don't really mind the endings - seems like if you have a high enough score you can get just about any ending you want. What really bothers me is that to get that score you have to do multiplayer. I really have no interest in multiplayer shooters, and mindless online shooting shouldn't have any effect on my story.
I will say I thought the synthesis ending was LOL-stupid. It's like a childish solution to end racism - make everyone interbreed into a single color of brown. But with flesh and robots. Maybe in the context of the cycle of destruction of synthetic and organic life it's not so unreasonable but it sure did look corny.
All that said - I have no doubt the indoctrination theories are correct. There's no other excuse for Shep waking up in London really. So the true ending: Shep rejects indoctrination, destroys Reapers, lives.
Mass Effect 4 will take place after the reconstruction of the relays or something. No other reason to have the child ask for another Shep story.
By the way, I was bothered they didn't do something a bit more clever like... Shep was revived through Reaper tech. That would have made a "destroy all Reapers" ending a little more complicated. |

Forbes: Casey Hudson Responds to Mass Effect Ending Protests:
"This is Not the Last You'll Hear of Commander Shepard"
Looks like Bioware's gonna crack and give into the demands of Mass Effect fans. 
On a side note, I just donated to the Retake campaign. It's getting a lot of publicity, and it's already at $65,000. |

Almost $77,000 now. I donated to it the moment I heard about it. It's a brilliant idea - what are they gonna say? "**** all those sick children, we don't care what you all say!" It's like a guilt cannon. |

All I read between the lawyer talk is "Our fans are a bunch of jerks and we are awesome yet misunderstood artists"  and "More news in April". I got to admire their willingness to pour oil on the fire.  From a business perspective way to go to alienate your fanbase 
I don't think they can *not* fix it now, honestly. This has gone beyond the scale of even the monocle. It is... the Monocle Effect! |
