Selective thinking again, as you pointed out they can build up an insignificant force (only to be wiped out if they suddenly go beserk?) or unite and work together towards survival of the organic life? One of the possibilities is impossible exactly because of their history the analysis of the conversation and unlitately oganic life as a whole vs. machines. The advantage is in having the Rachni prove themselves , the disadvantage is simply not there because the reapers are comming NOW.
No there is one episode that is questionable and that should be judged critically. And yes, finding an intelligent rachni is first hand experience the only other creatures doing it were the Krogan that destroyed the Quuens asap. I am not ignoring anything, I have a decision based on the wish to survive along with other only logical options and judging from the consequences all I did was absolutely right, as I finished ME before I had ME2. Again, you keep going in a circle not presenting or refuting a single argument, forcing me to repeat myself. Reapers, at least, were creating the human reaper in a way preserving, which shows that they actually preserve life in a wicket, not yet understandable way, you destroy a sentient lifeform and, unlike them, you have no real excuse besides speculation based on questionable data which is in the end IRRELEVANT simply because th contradicting self preservation responce you are giving.
What the Reapers do to sentient life is irrelevent to what I'm talking about. You keep saying that won't the Rachni join forces with the rest of the galaxy to fight the Reapers for that same self-preservation that gets the queen to possible lie to Shep. The problem there is, I have no reason to think the Rachni know of the Reapers as a threat until the Reapers are actually here. So again, if they built up enough to fight the Reapers when they get here, so too could they fight the rest of organic life before they get here. I just don't see any logical reason to believe they'll be of any real help.
Again, contradictive. You talk of their self preservation and all of the sudden AFTER pledging aligience (ME1) after finding out that they acknowledge their past mistakes and are ready to fight the Reapers (ME2) you STILL stick with the story just to stick with it? It seems that you see what you want to, while RPG in the "ignorant in the moment, blinding trusting one sided info of the council" character, as you ignore every single contradictive ellement.
Again, I don't get to find out that they are going to fight the Reapers because that happens in ME2, after you decide to kill her or release her. So again, I have no reason to really trust her supposed pledge of alligence to me. And if you're going to say we shouldn't really trust the council's history because it's one sided, then how can you trust
any history book you had to read in school? As you pointed out history is written by the winners, so if we're going to question the council and if the Rachni were truely the bad guys they said they are, then why do you trust our historians that say how evil Hitler was or any other thing from the past?
So you chose to have the blood on her hands SELECTIVLY being critical on the minor issues ignoring the major ones because of your insecurities? If there is any organisation I find hard to reply on in ME it is the council and I am very sceptical of them, therefore relying on my own judgements.
I'd love to rely on myself and my own judgements but again, all I have is the history of the Rachni given to me by the council. I have nothing else to go on. Just because I distrust the council, doesn't mean I'm going to suddenly believe nothing they say. I'm not going to ignore the information that was given to me and just let the queen go because the council might have been wrong or less than accurate in their discription of the Rachni. In the end I trust the council more than I trust the Rachni queen.
Irrelevant. Just because one civilization can build roads (say reapers) and the other one later is able to do it too (protheans), you can't call it Reaper tech. They had their own scientists DEVELOPING to CREATE not DEVELOPING to USE as every one else and here lies the major plot difference.
But it's still developing tech they have already seen in use, which is the Reaper tech. It's not like the just suddenly thought up the idea of a road for the first time ever without seeing and using roads that had already been built themelves. So if we can get our own scientists to study what tech is in the Collector Base whose to say we can't do something similar?
Who said anything about losing? You just end up being as Saren if you act as Saren, which seems logical to me based on your way of playing, thinking of winning at any cost, even when it means losing the grand strategy. Sadly, you could very well be right, as Bioware limits itself to a few extra dialogues on the major decisions (rachni; Feros did you kill the mind controlled people, btw - situation is similar to the rachni; Wrex; council) and a few messages on the regular ones. I really hope they, however, chose to make the major decisions count in the end.
Well, when you say end up like Saren, I take that to mean losing since he dies. As for the mind-controlled people, I try to save them. Unlike the Rachni, letting the colonists live isn't going to have any possibility of becoming some kind of threat to the galaxy.
However, I get the opposite impression, as you work towards the humanity wiping out other races and providing every single advantage to the leader that although claims not to be a " xenophobe human supremascist" is judging by his action is the definition of it (TIM). We can only judge by the actions not the "noble" ideas when the result is the opposite.
I only provide Cerberus every single advantage because that's all the game lets you do. If I could have given things like the Collector Base to the Alliance instead of TIM, I would have. But again, my Shep would rather the scum human supremascist TIM get the tech, then us losing the tech forever because as long as the tech still exists, it has the potential of being used against the Reapers. If it doesn't exist, then it can't be used for anything. My Shep wants to find some way to defeat the Reapers more than she wants to keep TIM away from power.
