The elephant in the room

I've done them all, but my canon play through is Red. My Shep wasn't overly broken up over the loss of the Geth, but then she was played with a ruthless whatever it takes personality.

Red, mainly because confronted with such bad options, I choose the one I new had a bit of extra content.

Out of the RGB I chose Destro for my Renegon because GI JOOOOOOOOOEEEEEE it was the actual mission. To destroy these ancient killbots from hell. Leviathan and Glowing Piece O' Shit aren't canon to me. That's my preferred Shepard and his choice. He's here to bang Jack, kill reapers, kill dissenting indoctrinated morons, kick ass by manguard headbutting krogan faces off so hard that the next 7 generation will only have two balls, bang Jack, bro it up with trolling Protheans and BAMF Drell assassins while also breaking his foot out of mercenary scumbags and then killing reapers while leaving Harbinger voicemail messages about how he pulled a The Rock on his reaper buddy on Rannoch. Hektus Shepard always found Joker's infatuation with metal poon weird and since Legion had to self copypasta he used the geth hardware to continue his reaper asskicking goals. In the end, making papa Anderson proud and banging Jack are what matters, so he's not going anywhere. This Shepard is the one who teaches my first Ryder how to be a man and embody SAVAGE.

My Paragon Sheploo chose Synthesis cause that's the line he was towing. He cares about the Geoffs as much as the organic races.

My Renegade Shepard is an evil bastard who fully supports Cerberus till the end and would have stuck with Brooks had she approached HIM and not some random jamoke clone. He wants to tear down the aliens and uses them in his fight to give humans the upper hand. In the end, the krogan were screwed over, the geth kicked Quarian ass on their way to THE FINAL DELETION OF BROTHER LEGION deletion which led to a weaker quarian flotilla and let Rana wrech some top brass in Asorry lsd High Command. There is a new galactic overlord and it is THE Cerberus for humanity whose name is Shepard.

My Paragade Shepard chose refuse because I based him on Isaac Clarke circa Dead Space 2 where he wasn't going to change his morals or point of viiew by falling into the reapers' trap of using a device they started by proxy. He told the reapers to go fornicate themselves in the darkest corner of the galaxy and flipped them the bird while the Citadel races went out in a blaze of glory.

Damn, those are some compelling tales.

While I feel bad for killing the geth and edi i choose red.. always. Damn Reapers.

Red.

Anderson explains it best:

"A good leader is someone who values the life of his men over the success of the mission, but understands that sometimes the cost of failing a mission is higher than the cost of losing those men."

I choose Destroy, but I think that Control is a perfectly acceptable option. Control is the ultimate insult to the Reapers and their scheme, turning them into slaves to the benefit of the rest of the galaxy. But I'd rather just be rid of the abominations altogether.

My problem with control is that it isn't Shepard controlling them. It's some new AI with Shepard's memories. The Extended Wrist Cut version even has the AI saying it's not Shepard anymore ("the man/woman I was" and all that). We can't say "well my Shepard would..." because our Shepard is dead. We can't speak for this thing. And again we're back to the "no guarantee they won't come to the same conclusions again" thing. Which, given how Shepbinger is already going on about its infinite understanding and protecting the many from the few, along with how okay Casper the Genocidal Ghost was with letting Shepard take the helm, I'd say the new monster will more than likely restart the cycle of genocide sooner or later.

If it were actually Shepard controlling them, that'd be great. I'd march them single-file into the supermassive black hole. Git rekt, mecha-cthulhu.

Are you seriously suggesting the monsters who've torture-murdered billions of people tens of thousands of times over shouldn't pay for their crimes?

I don't know, man.  Seems like community service is kind of light for atrocities beyond comprehension.

Teehee, that poll's not loaded at ALL.

Anyway, I've picked all of them. Paragon Blue's my favorite, though, and as far as I'm concerned, the Shepalyst functions as a reclusive galactic archive for the rest of her existence.

A loaded poll is one that makes one option look better than the rest, not one that makes them all look like crap.

You don't get to decide what Shepbinger does. Your Shepard is dead. That thing's not Shepard.

It's freaky how well it lines up, right?
