My take on the Indoctrination Theory for ME3

General
This was original a reply I made on someone's Journal but I felt like putting it hear as a new journal as I don't up-date it often enough: -
Indoctrination made sense to me. I actually bothered to listen/read a lot of the descriptive fluff ME1-3 gives you throughout the games. With that and a little intelligence you can figure out whats actually happening to Shep at the end. Granted it doesn't fully explain everything to me, and just because I read the fluff doesn't mean I caught all the plot points or twists that may or may not have been intended.
I think Indoctrination is the most sold and reasoned out explanation. Especially as nearly all the arguments against it seemed to be built on primarily just personal opinion, rage, assumption and very little actual research. The people arguing for Indoctrination make better, more informed points against there own arguments than those who are against it, and they still don't overshadow the Indoctrination Theory.
But, like many, this is only my opinion, and I recognize that I and a lot of people, might be reading too much into this and Bioware have simply fallen from grace, but it seems unlikely. Rapping everything up in DLC does seem a little daft to me, wish the industry would actually let game developers release finished games.
