Topic	Mass Effect 3's patched-in "Refuse" ending was petty as hell

That was just one of the ideas being tossed around the writing team at some point during ME2 (see below quote for interview with Karpyshyn), not the actual direction the story was going before ME3 which was made as people spun the Karpyshyn interview to say.
