In Mass Effect 2, Garrus says that he is prepared for Collectors, Reapers, or anything else. Shepard then asks Garrus if he really thinks there is anything worse than the Reapers. I think this may be forshadowing for an enemy that is more dangerous than the Reapers. Also, In Mass Effect 3, the Reaper you kill on Rannoch says that this is much larger than you could possibly understand to Shepard, What is bigger than a Reaper? Then, the kid says that he and the Reapers are doing this to prevent all organics from being wiped out by synthetics, Who is going to wipe them out. The Geth, I dont think so. Also, when you think about it, the Reapers aren't really wiping out all organics, they are kind of re purposing them. The Protheans were turned into collectors to help build Reapers, Humans, Asari, Batarians, and Turians are all re purposed to serve as soldiers for the Reapers. Now think about this, why in the world would the Reapers need soldiers, they could wipe out an entire planet in one fell swoop if they wanted to. Now think about this, even we, as humans have taken another living organism and used it to assist us in war, think about horses, think about how many wars they have turned the tide on. I think the Reapers are simply using the other organics as "Horses" to try and turn the tide on a future battle they know they cant win without help. I think that there may be a bigger enemy out there than the Reapers, maybe they are re purposing other organisms as a sort of survival instinct, because they want to survive but they know the other species would not help them willingly, hence indoctrination. I think indoctrination could be another means of acquiring soldiers. Like if they turned all of the humans into husks, that wouldnt get them that far in a war, since they have no strategy or tactics. So they indoctrinate people, like the illusive man, who are people of great power, who can use their influence to help the Reapers cause without knowing it, there judgement is not really impaired, and still kind of think for themselves, as long as they are assisting the Reapers in whatever they do.

So I think that if there was a next mass effect game, If you chose the control option, you start off with more of a readiness because Shepard now controls the Reapers, If you chose the destroy option, maybe the various civilizations have been given a greater chance to advance their technology so they could have new weapons and be more powerful, if you chose the synthesize ending, organics are made partly synthetic and synthetics are made partly organic, greatly increasing the amount of soldiers you have or the resources you possess. and if you chose the Refusal ending, you're kind of F***ed.

Anyway, thank you for reading this. I know its long but i appreciate it.
