Just as the title suggests. True, the Reapers are the main baddies, but you can't just have Shepard running around shooting swarms of colossal warships with his machine gun/submachine gun. He'd be f@cking squashed in a second! Unless it became a Joker/Normandy flight sim... So, just like ME1 had Seran and ME2 had Harbinger taking over the Collectors for mono-a-mono fights, ME3 will most likely have a single antagonist we can throw down with.

Who or what would you want to be the final villain of Mass Effect 3?

It doesn't have to be something that already exists. You can totally make it up from your imagination. If you want, you can even give a brief scene with your antagonist in action.


--For me, I thought that a throw back to Saren would be pretty cool, only instead of a modded Turian it can be a modded Human.
He'd be known only as "Prophet", a mysterious villain clothed in white silk robes and dawning biotic abilities drenched in "Dark Energy" (whatever the f@ck that is. I think it's like the polar opposite of Mass Effect energy). His deal would be that he wants to build a vast multi-species cult (and is) to worship the coming Reapers, making people give themselves wholly unto the dark mechanical gods and securing his masters' victory over the galaxy.

Oh, and I imagine Liam O'Brian voicing him, because that dude rocks.

Harbinger.

[KalReegarVasNeema]

The Salarian Councilor. Turian is too obvious and Asari just doesn't fit. I've always thought that guy was sketchy...

[kraidy1117]

TIM for half the game and then Harbinger for the rest.

Dark energy is the "stuff" of space that can't be seen, can be flown through, but still has mass....somehow. Manipulating that stuff is probably the real world secret to FTL travel. Sorry about the science lesson.

Your idea is a little far fetched because, well, there aren't usually big cults as only a few people are dumb enough to believe the bat****-insane leader.

Whoever survives Virmire should become your somewhat misguided rival after you're declared "rogue", although he or she won't be the face of the Reapers.



Also, it would be a nice touch if he or she flies around in a 'rebuilt' Normandy, with some of the old parts being re-used, with people you've met and let live as his/her allies (think Shiala or Sidonis).

[The Enforcer OS]

The Shadow Broker, some Deep Seeded Alliance Officer and Udina

[J.G]

indoctrinated party member like garrus or samara or somebody. That would be a real kick to the quad fighting one of your friends. Also adds some emotion to the conflict.

Good idea but if there you'r LI it would'nt make sense.

Or whoever was killed on Virmire.  I suspect Bioware pulling something like this.  Anyone every play Advent Rising?  If so you'll know what I'm talkin' about.

I kinda like the idea the idea of sticking with Harbinger as Big Bad/Man Behind the Man. Hopefully he'll lose it at some point. How many things does Shepard have to screw up for them to break through that smug Reaper condescension and evil gloating..?

Yes, I want the immortal dreadnaught to be angry with Shepard personally. Good times!

As for Harbinger's dragon, I'm not really sure. A squad member could work (Harbinger ef****g with Shepard), but they'd have to get indoctrinated pretty early on to actually give them a sense of being the enemy. Kind of necessitates there being a Collector-like group existing in the galaxy. Of course, the ME1 formula can't really work directly. A Saren just doesn't have the same poignancy when everyone knows it's really the Sovereign pulling the strings.

Au contraire, it would make it emotionally more engaging.

Virmire survivor tries to hunt your ass down after your declared rogue, hopefully with an show down and an real kick to the quad, your LI gets killed by them, (or if not, an random core member like garrus or tali).



best plot twist ever.
