My very first playthrough was all-paragon... until I got to the end. When I saw that "control" was in the blue, all I could think to myself is "this is bullshit".

Nobody should have that kind of power, not even Shepherd. No one is incorruptible.

I chose destroy - not for revenge or petty satisfaction - but because I knew it was the only way to be sure that the Reapers would never harm anyone ever again, regardless of who controlled them.

I didn't choose I didn't realize that was an option, but looking back, even if I did know, I still would have done destroy. Everyone chose to fight, knowing what the stakes were. They were all willing to die for peace. No one, however, signed up to fused with synthetics against their will.

I wouldn't force that on anyone.

The Geth (and EDI) knew what could happen. They already agreed to lay down their lives if necessary. By choosing destroy, I made sure their sacrifice wasn't in vain.

The galaxy would have peace, but more importantly:

The galaxy would be free.
