The "Refusal" ending in Mass Effect 3 is a less conventional outcome where Commander Shepard rejects the choices presented by the Catalyst, an ancient artificial intelligence responsible for the creation of the Reapers. The "Refusal" ending can be triggered in two ways: First, instead of choosing one of the available options (Control, Defusal, or Synthesis), Shepard refuses to accept any of them, asserting the independence and self-determination of organic life. Second, Shepard can decide to shoot the Catalyst. Either decision results in the Catalyst deeming Shepard's cycle a failure and allowing the Reapers to continue their cycle of harvesting and controlling advanced civilizations.
The "Refusal" ending carries a sense of defiance and maintains the ongoing conflict between organic and synthetic life without offering a resolution. It is often viewed as a more challenging or tragic ending, as it implies that the struggle against the Reapers will persist and that the galaxy's fate remains uncertain. The Refusal ending concludes with the credits and a post-credit scene in which an old Stargazer tells the story of "The Shepard" to a young child.
