Actually joking. But yea, it would take a while.

My highest poll has +1000 votes, and that was several months ago. I like to pretend that one of the options inspired the Kasumi dialog in her DLC.

[NuclearBuddha]

From without the church came that tenebrous fluttering we had heard before our arrival, and this set the doctor to tittering again, promising an assortment of horrors for each of us. Stealthy crawling could be detected from the unlit rafters, and the eerie sensation of being the object of malignant regard by eyes inhuman and unnumbered crept over me. Slowly, lurking on the edge of our vision, they came, terrifying copies in miniature of the creature from the steeple. Our continued sanity surely only depends upon how they kept to the plentiful shadows with their buzzing and their jerky, unnatural scuttling. What man could have witnessed, and remained a man, that hellish profusion of eyes, those thrashing pincer-tipped tendrils, or even just the horrible suggestion of swarming, blasphemous life from spheres beyond our own?

While the inspector and I had lingered immobilized, however, we and the doctor had forgotten Miss Zorah. Somehow she had contrived to slip ever-nearer to Dr. Saleon, and during a particularly florid gesticulation on his part, nimbly plucked the strange talisman directly from his bony grasp. For a moment chaos reigned, a frightful din of alien buzzing and chitinous scrabbling. The creature on the altar surged almost into perfect visibility, but shrank back once more, this time when Miss Zorah herself presented the curious emblem before it. Instinctively, I understood that now it was at our mercy, just as we had only moments before been to Dr. Saleon. As for the doctor, he was shocked into silence only for a heartbeat before commencing the most pitiable entreatments to return the stone to him.

From the darkness behind the obscuring web came that buzzing imitation of a voice once again, this time with a hateful confidence.

“Humans, you make that one free us.”

Emboldened, the inspector steadied his weapon, but I placed a restraining hand on his shoulder. I cannot say what mad impulse lead me to stay his shot. I can only again plead that the hunger for knowledge had, perhaps like it had for M. Arterius once, overwhelmed wisdom. Looking to Miss Zorah, I saw her nod, and she brandished the icon again with a peculiar flourish. Lead once more into delving that the black abyss that yawns behind the façade of the ordinary, I demanded of the thing what M. Arterius was about.

Redtracer7 is not actually a robot developed by the mad scientists at TZ Labs, to give balance to the thread through acting like a total Cerberus supporter, and all around Renegade.

...Nope. You're just paranoid.

what the hell is that thing?

NuclearBuddha wrote...

The ancient authors of humanity, more timid and respectful of things beyond their ken than modern man, had known of that race’s travels to earth to hunt and prowl and had left their oblique warnings that no sane man should go abroad in desolate places on nights when the red star casts its baleful light from the heavens and meteors streaked the sky.  This hinted-at race of fearsome star-dwellers knew things beyond any earthly knowledge, owing to their fabulous lifespan and otherworldly perceptions, and it was for this reason that dispite all warning M. Arterius sought to enslave and interrogate the creature.

I like this.

Beats me.  I found the pic on 4chan.

Within the context of Call of the Elder Machines?  The rachni analogue.

Within the context of the Cthulhu Mythos?  The mi-go analogue.

Let's say Tali dies invariably in ME3. I get the inevitable fanboy rage, but what else?

I bullet in the head. If not because your life has no meaning and you commit suicide, then by my hand for not doing something so unbelievably stupid as a result of rage upon watching her death.

Do you mean an in-story reaction, or a general audience reception?

I don't fear Tali death so much as I fear separation. I can see some sort of goofy "Shepard transcendent" ending.

Suicide.

It's the only logical conclusion.
