User blog comment:Ygrain/The Reject ending: why only half-done?/@comment-4237253-20120628145628

I'm fine with an ending where we lose to the Reapers, as long we could go out in a blaze of glory. All we got was an awkward moment of Shepard standing there and the God Child basically saying "You lose!"

What would be truly emotionally powerful: make us watch every character, every war asset die. Show us Jack and her students, show us Hackett, show us the different fleets ramming themselves into the Reapers knowing that if they can't win they're gonna take the enemy out with them.

The Rejection ending is nothing more than a glorified game over screen at this point.
