I am currently posed with the question: Let Garrus have revenge or let Sidonis live with himself? Thoughts?

Play through both, pick the one you want.

Depends, do you want to give Sidnos the easy way out or let him left and make him regret what he has done? To me, death is the easy way out.

Let him live, it's better for Garrus.

Garrus gets what he wants, regardless of my own opinion on the matter. He's too much of a friend to disallow him that.

Let him have his revenge. It's his choice, he was the one wronged. The only reason you're in the position to affect the outcome is because you agreed to help him find Sidonis. So why take a crap on him at the end?

First I thought let the man have his revenge, but as I saw the ending with Sidonis let alive, I think it was the better ending as he starts to see the shades of gray in the universe.

Letting Sidonis live = not loyal Garrus = dead Garrus in final mission (usually). SO either kill Sidonis or kill Garrus, it's your choice.

Wrong, he is loyal even if you let Sidonis live.

You can still get loyalty from Garrus if you spare Sidonis.

Really? I could have sworn that I ended up redoing that because he didnt become loyal. Time to go back and redo that mission again...

Just ask yourself what you would do if someone on your team killed Wrex.

Shepard: im in cerberus... didn't we clear that up on Horizon? No that was Kaidan didn't you die on Virmire Ashley and what are you doing in the collector base?!

Ashley: Ummmmm errrrmmm uhhhh I AM ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL!

*Wrex shoots ashley in the back*

Shepard: Thanks for that Wrex i've been wanting to do that since I first met her on Eden Prime.

Wrex: Wanna grab some ryncol at Omega.

Shepard: I sure do buddy let's go home.

To be perfectly honest I think revenge is stupid, so Garrus having his entire loyalty mission revolve around it made me mad. It's like he didn't listen to a word I said in Mass Effect 1. Personally I would never kill Sidonis for any reason. But then again Garrus isn't me, and shoving my opinion down his throat does make me feel like a jerk. I'm really not sure which is the better choice for Garrus.

I don't know, when you let Sidonis live ... Garrus kind of gives you this "thank you" that sounds to me like it's a thank you for stopping him from making the wrong choice. That's just how it sounds to me though.

This is what seems to be the win-win Paragon choice, and by Shepard taking action - because he/she cares about Garrus' well being mind you, Garrus actually discovers that his reasons for wanting revenge were clouded by his own anger and he didn't know the full story behind Sidonis until then. Garrus makes it pretty clear that he would have regretted his actions.

But, if you go the Renegade route, I'm going to guess he would relish in getting his revenge somewhat, or at least not (fully) regret it if he doesn't know the extent of Sidonis' take on the situation.

Even though this is a short mission, it's one of my favorite ones because of all the mixed moral implications and shades of grey.

This. I'm actually surprised with how many people justify the killing because Sidonis 'deserves' it. One more death isn't going to make everything better. At least Sidonis can try to atone now.

The only thing that prevents Garrus from shooting Sidonis is hearing him out. Garrus himself says "I just couldn't do it." He finally tells you to let Sidonis go, as opposed to Sidonis running away while you block the shot.

Informed Garrus makes that decision.

When you're dealing with revenge it's hard to deal with it as a question of morality since in Mass Effect there's so much relativism to deal with.

However, not killing Sidonis seems to be more in Garrus' character once he's given the opportunity to hear Sidonis out. A completely vengeful Garrus would have just taken the shot anyway. It may be in the player's hands, but not Shepard's.

I don't do it because I think Sidonis deserves it, I do it because it is Garrus' choice to make. If he doesn't want to shoot Sidonis then he doesn't have to. If he regrets it later then he can learn from it.

Why should he get the chance to atone?  His victims don't have any chances anymore.
