rampancy: Someone posted this comment on the neoseeker story that the OP linked to:
think the message was for those people who were proposing the indoctrination theory.
Sorry guys, the ending might be more shallow than what the indoctrination theorists might think.
rampancy: The thing is, at least from what I've seen, the Indoctrination Theory seems like a credible explanation for what happens at the end of the game while at the same time not necessitating a major revamp of the content that BioWare has already released. All they'd have to do is a little more expansion on Shephard drawing a breath at the end of the "Best" ending, and *boom*, they've got a bridge to Mass Effect 4, or Mass Effect 3: Finish the Fight, or whatever they've got coming next.
Sure, a lot of people are going to get angry, but at least it'll make the ending make more narrative sense.
Annoying thing is, that I never got a drawing breath ending, even though I had almost all single player available resources, save for those guys who cant express emotions. Hell, i united entire f*ing galaxy, went full paragon, and yet I didn't see that ending. Fork you Bioware.
While I'm at it, what are real instructions to get that?
EDIT: I simply hate forum formatting.
