Latar belakang cerita dan Alur
The Mass Effect series of videogames details the adventures of Systems Alliance Commander Shepard as he or she tries to defeat a race of machines called Reapers. The Reapers are immensely powerful and purge the galaxy of all sentient life in 50,000 year cycles. In the Mass Effect 2 DLC Arrival, Shepard goes into batarian space to rescue a deep cover agent named Dr. Amanda Kenson and learns that the Reapers are close to returning. To delay them, Shepard destroys a mass relay, killing 300,000 batarian colonists as collateral damage. Consequently, Shepard is ordered to appear on Earth for a trial regarding his or her decision.
Plot
Mass Effect 3 begins on Earth with Commander Shepard having been detained following the events in Arrival.Out of the blue, the Reapers attack and the planet is overwhelmed. Shepard escapes a burning Vancouver on the Normandy with the help of Admiral Anderson and the Kaiden/Ashley and leaves to gather help from other species while Anderson coordinates human resistance on Earth. Before leaving the Sol System, Shepard is ordered to Mars by Admiral Hackett who claims that researchers have uncovered something that may give humanity a chance against the Reapers. There, Shepard battles Cerberus forces and encounters former squad-mate Liara T'Soni, who has discovered plans for a Prothean superweapon that may be capable of defeating the Reapers. Before leaving the facility, Shepard speaks with a now-hostile Illusive Man, who claims he wants to use the Prothean weapon to take control of the Reapers.Next, Shepard heads for the Citadel. Once there, Shepard pleads for help from the Council, but they are reluctant to oblige due to their own preoccupations. Shepard realizes that the only way to gain other species' assistance will be to help them with their problems and garner favors, while at the same time gathering war assets to be used against the Reapers in battle. Eventually, Hackett begins construction on the Prothean weapon and dubs it "The Crucible".
After rescuing the turian leader from the turian homeworld, Shepard's convenes a war summit, consisting of human, turian, salarian and krogan. The summit goes badly at first, with Wrex/Wreav (depending on if Wrex's survived Virmire) witholding all support until a cure for the genophage can be created. With the help of former squadmate Mordin Solus (if he survived the Suicide Mission), Shepard can either cure it or trick Wrex/Wreav into believing they cured it, though usually at the cost of Mordin's life. After dealing with the krogan, Shepard learns that Cerberus has assaulted the Citadel, where he deduces Councilor Udina is behind the attack, and kills him, saving the rest of the council. Afterward, the crew learns that the quarians have declared war on the geth, and are losing that war, pushed back to their ancestral homeworld of Rannoch. Shepard boards a geth dreadnought with former squadmate Tali'Zorah broadcasting a short-range Reaper code to the geth where he destroys it and finds Legion (or the simply named Geth VI also dependent on the Suicide Mission), who tells Shepard that the geth, losing the war with the quarians, turned to the Reapers in desperation and were greatly enhanced, though at the cost of the hivemind's independent thought; while Legion/Geth VI remain independent due to the number of active programs. With Shepard and Legion/Geth VI's help, the geth are pushed back to a Reaper base controlling the geth and free them by destroying the base, defeating a Reaper. With the Reaper control gone but the superior upgrades still viable, Shepard must chose to allow the geth to upgrade, destroying the quarian fleet and genociding the quarian race and causing Tali to commit suicide, or shut down the entire geth fleet, which destroys the geth; Shepard can also broker a peace. Finally, they attempt to defend the asari home world Thessia from the Reapers while simultaneously gathering information on "The Catalyst", an essential tool for the Crucible's effectiveness. At a Thessian temple, Shepard encounters a Prothean VI called Vendetta. As it is about to reveal information regarding the Catalyst, Cerberus assassin Kai Leng intervenes and steals it. Shepard then attacks their headquarters, killing Leng but failing to capture the Illusive Man. Vendetta, Shepard learns that the Citadel is the Catalyst and that the Illusive Man has been indoctrinated. Because of his indoctrination, the Illusive Man has told the Reapers of the Citadel's true identity and they have moved it to a defensive position in Earth's orbit.
Under Hackett's leadership, the galaxy's forces attack the Reapers on Earth in an attempt to retake the Citadel and use it as the Catalyst for the Crucible. Shepard helps an assault on London, the focal connection point from the planet to the Citadel. Reunited with Anderson, Shepard eventually begins the final push to the Citadel but is attacked by Harbinger. While charging toward the conduit that sends humans to the Citadel, Shepard's squadmates are injured and evacuated. Shepard continues the charge but is wounded. He barely makes it and meets up with Anderson and together they encounter an indoctrinated Illusive Man. They stop him, but Anderson is mortally wounded in the process. Shepard is then transported to the pinnacle of the Citadel where a childlike AI appears. The AI declares itself as the Catalyst and the Reapers' creator. It reveals that the Reaper cycle is an attempt to prevent organic life from wiping itself out by creating synthetic life; creators, the Catalyst argues, are always doomed to be destroyed by the created. The Catalyst characterizes the harvest as an ascendance, wherein advanced organic races are preserved in Reaper form and space is left for more primitive species to rise, evolve, and advance.
The Catalyst says that it has lost faith in the Reapers' ability to achieve their purpose and gives Shepard three options of defeating them: control the Reapers, destroy the Reapers and all synthetic life, or synthesize all organic and synthetic life together. Each choice results in Shepard's apparent death and the destruction of the entire mass relay network. London suffers varying degrees of damage and the Normandy crash lands on an alien planet. If the player's Effective Military Strength is high enough and Shepard chooses to destroy the Reapers, the game ends with a cutscene of Shepard taking a deep breath in a pile of rubble, hinting at survival. In a post-credits cutscene, an old man known as the "Stargazer" tells Shepard's story to a young boy, implying that Shepard's legend lives on.
Extended Cut
The Extended Cut reveals that the mass relays are only heavily damaged by the Crucible's firing instead of being destroyed as per the original ending, but most aspects of the plot remain the same. Additional scenes and dialogue have been added to clarify events and resolve perceived plot holes.The three original ending choices have been modified to include a varying narration provided by Hackett (Destroy), Shepard (Control), or EDI (Synthesis) along with slides showing the impact the player's choices have had upon the galaxy, as well as the fate of surviving characters. If the player has a sufficiently high EMS score, the surviving crew of the Normandy is shown holding a memorial service for Shepard before repairing the damage from the crash and launching into space.
The Extended Cut also provides a fourth ending, triggered by either refusing the Catalyst's choices, or attempting to kill it when the player resumes control of Shepard. Consequently, the Crucible is not fired and the war ends with the systematic destruction of all space-faring civilizations, and the continuation of the Reaper cycle. The scene then shifts to an unknown garden world in the future where one of Liara's beacons has been discovered. Dialogue in the post-credits scene reveals that the knowledge gained from the beacon ultimately led to the next cycle's victory over the Reapers.
