I like what you can say to that turian **** on the council.
Turian ****: Do you enjoy exterminating other races?
Sheppard: Depends on the species….turian.

I killed her because of course she would blame someone else for starting the war because i have a vat of acid above her and she doesn't want to die!!

Simply put it is stupid to exterminate the queen, as it is stupid to destroy the Krogan Genophage "cure".

The best approach by far is to save the queen and keep the genophage cure (which weirdly isn't an option).

As is said multiple times, the Krogan bred using the cure are highly suggestible, little more than fleshy automatons, so by keeping them you have an army of semi indestructible biological killing machines to fight the reapers with.

And by saving the queen you have access to the most dangerous species that has ever existed (I don't think the reapers themselves can be counted), which is likely to side with you vs the reapers, and if for whatever reason they don't, just send your army of mindless Krogan clones after them.

Seriously not having an option to keep the cure was a massive oversight.

The tank-bred krogans of Okeer have nothing to do with a cure for the genophage. All the tank-bred krogans bear the genophage (including Grunt).
Curing the genophage would just result in the "krogan rebellions 2.0". So destroying the research is probably the most reasonable thing to do.

Remember: Okeer says that Grunt is the ultimate insult to the genophage because he can ignores the genophage. That doesn't mean Grunt is cured. Okeer says that the krogans are getting weaker, because now every krogan is precious and gets cuddled (according to Okeer), while the strongest and most promising offspring may die in stillbirth.

Since the army of mindless krogan clones won't come to your aid ...

I let her live.

And it turns out that is a good idea, because in ME2, she sends you a message about aiding you when the time is right.

I assume this will have a payoff in ME3 when the Rachni join the fight against the Reapers.

[legion rocks]

If they are kind enough they'll bring in every one of them.

[legion rocks]

well good you dot want to.

[legion rocks]

good you dont want to

[Brixxer600]

I let her live and will be looking for her to pay me back in ME3  , i expect the Rachni to help and fulfil their part of "The bargain" , once their debt is repaid i do expect the Queen to declare that The Rachni will  conquer the Galaxy .............some day.

[SimplePlan2k8]

In my mind, it made sense to keep her alive. An ally is an ally at the end of the day.
And I genuinely believed that she will create a more peaceful race, especially without any indoctrination influences

Lol, that almost makes it worth killing her. But I've never ever killed her in my playthroughs. *spoiler* They're a species indoctrinated and used by the reapers so they'll make a great ally in ME3 I think. They deserve a second chance.

Plus, apparently I'm he only one, but I love insects and thought she looked cool ^^

[Get Magna Carter]

I try most options in different playthroughs but I have difficulties when it comes to the deliberate, cold-blooded murder of an innocent and so have never been able to kill her

[Ithilien-Ranger]

I've never been able to bring myself to destroy a whole race... so no

[thatguy7123]

Depends on the playthrough. Usually I save the Queen because it'll come in handy later but my pure evil guy kills her everytime. I don't know if it will make a big impact on the third one but who knows?

I'm hoping they help you deal with a certain invasion.

I am not talking about Okeers, I am talking about SARENS

It is stated all through out that section that they have no will of thier own and are just puppets and all that stuff.  Destroying the facility is stupid, you should have taken it for yourself (or the council I guess).

Of course Soveriegn may have destroyed it once Saren lost it, but maybe he wouldnt have, who knows.

[alkyr8]

after playing ME3 I'm not going to let her live on my new playthrough of ME1 for reasons I don't think I should say just in case anyone here has not played it yet.

[Maples01]

I was torn, so I did both, but my play through is living, I'll go back and finish the one where I killed her later.

[Arkwright99]

I killed the Queen for the first time last night as part of my Renegade playthrough, but it felt really wrong so I'm not sure whether I'll do it again. (Certainly not with a Paragon Shepard I suspect.) In the end, my Renegade rationalised it on the grounds that even if the Rachni Queen was being truthful human bio-corps had already shown they were willing to exploit the Rachni for their own ends so it was probably better (in the long run) to remove the temptation. Plus who's to say there isn't another Rachni Queen egg drifting out in the wastes of space somewhere.

[Samuel_]

Kill ze betch.

[LoyFang]

I ALWAYS let her live.
Just love that giant-colorful-voice-blue-purple-cute-damn-thing-full-of-deadly-claws (GEESTAHP!). Love those tiny green babies too.

And yes, I love insects .

[JonathonPR]

I have no reason to kill her. I don't persecute for what is not chosen. Read Ender's Game and http://www.girlgeniu...p?date=20090323 also why I save Wrex.

[cap and gown]

Looks like Ender's Game is coming out as a movie soon. Suppose it will have any effect on the Queen's survival odds?

[Bardox9]

Unless I am playing a pure Paragon or pure Reneagade, killing the queen is never a simple question for me. On one hand, she had nothing to do with the Rachni Wars. She was born in captivity and her children stolen from her. As soon as the egg pops out the "needle men" would take it away. She, for all intents and purposes, is an innocent victim. On the other hand, this innocent victim can birth a horde of mindless rampaging beasts at will. What happens if she is captured again(as she is in ME3 if you let her live)? Risk VS pity... Jerk VS schmuck... oy...I'm verklempt...

 

I do believe the Rachni were forced into war by this "sour yellow note", but I don't think it was the Reapers simply because the Reapers load their victims up with cybernetics. The Rachni of ME1 and the war didn't have cybernetics. I think the sour yellow note came from the Leviathan. I think they were grooming the Rachni to be their ultimate thrall race. Granted that at the time of ME1 the Leviathan are an unknown, but consider... Rachni: Foot soldiers of the Leviathan. Leviathan: A race bent on galactic domination.

 

I battle myself every time over this... It always comes down to "What is the purpose of a Spectre?" The answer, to preserve galactic stability by whatever means necessary. Releasing the Rachni goes completely against this purpose.
