Yeah it's a shame that all the extra stuff written by Tolkien in his appendices and such is irrelevant, it added nothing to that universe and should have just been 'shown' so that we could 'experience' it.

You really think we could somehow have experienced everything discussed in the Codex in these three games? The codex is there to add flavour to and expand upon things we have discovered and experienced, and more importantly to tell us about things that would never have been fit into the game otherwise. It is an optional resource to add to the richness of the ME universe the writers and other devs have created, and to grant fans a deeper understanding of the way things work - even when we would otherwise have no reason to find out about it in the course of the game.

i would rather play through the first contact war than read about it.

So would I.

But in the event that there no way to do that, I dont think settling for codex entries or a bit of exposition done by minor characters is that bad.

I dont want to wait until Bioware makes a First Contact War game (if they ever) to learn about an event that is crucial to Shepards journey (the whole state or things between humanity and other species. Hell if wed never heard of it, there wouldnt be anyone interested in experiencing it and maybe buying a game designed around it.

"Long workday today... Ravager is mostly sorted though. Properly terrifying... need to bug Trevor for some nice acid pool decals though ^_^"

It's Ravager! OMG, it's real!
I don't know if it was intentional, but this made my day! Thank you (both to Vertigo and Mr.Holmes)!

And did I just read acid?
In before a Reaper dual wielding Thresher Maws as melee weapons!
Seriously though, I hope it has something to do with Threshers...

What is Ravager?

[Vertigo_1]

^Reaper enemy

twitter.com/#!/CaseyDHudson/status/111146412510687232
"What feature are you the most proud of in #ME3?”

"So many... but a definite favorite is weapon customization."

"Also, grabbing an enemy behind cover & using the omniblade."

And something ME2:

"I've always wanted to know what class do you usually play shepard as?"

"I try them all but in #ME2 it was mainly vanguard, adept, soldier."

somebody ask them if Femshep will be a different class, like a Sentinel maybe. I always pictured Adept, Vanguard and Soldiers as males and Infiltrators, Engineers and Sentinels as females

I don't know, but by the sound of the name it could be a Reaper...
If it's so, I happened to wish for a Reaper called Ravager some time ago...
It would be quite like a wish come true...

Edit: Ninja'd by Vertigo...

@Virtigo Can you ask them (I don't think it's been asked before) if we will see Mark Meer make any appearances, either at some convention or on Bioware TV or something? We've seen a lot of Jennifer Hale, which is great don't get me wrong, but I'm interested in what Meer has to say as well.

I would love this too but I'd imagine the man keeps pretty busy with his other acting commitments. He is indeed a prolific actor.

 This is just a test.

I am 90% sure he was at PAX. There was a guy standing in the crowd at one part -- I think during the Q&A torney -- who looked exactly like him -- EXCEPT -- he had a beard and moustache. Hell, he looked right into the damn camera at one point. I'm positive it's him -- but I can't find the exact moment. I remember thinking "Oh cool, Mark Meer is here", and later hearing that he wasn't there.

Well originally a friend wanted me (and anyone else) to ask Silverman about VA's making an appearance on Bioware Pulse episodes (his favorite being Yvonne) :

twitter.com/#!/dsilvermanea/status/108535445801021441
"Hey I was wondering if there are any plans to do #BiowarePulse episodes with some of the #ME3 Voice Actors?"

"Aside we've interviewed Ali Hillis (Liara) and Jennifer Hale (FemShep) on BWTV at SDCC and again at PAX (Hale). More to come."

To which I responded with:

twitter.com/#!/_Vertigo_1/status/108611815688241153
"Thanks for responding! Can't wait; hope to see other VA's like @courtenaytaylor @Y_Strahovski and Mark Meer! #NeedMoreMaleShep"

Which ended up getting retweeted by Courtenay Taylor, Jacks VA (and the first of which I mentioned)

I think others would have to tweet to @DavidSilverman, since I already let him know and I don't like to spam, that they would like to see him for some sort of interview.

But from his response we can expect more in the future so yeah...

If I had to answer truly.... it'd be the energetic Quarian gal who'd call the Reapers a pack of bosh'tets.

i just think this whole codex thing is sloppy. <_<

i dont care if onix is the longest pokemon in the world, or if snorlax is the heaviest.

Well, if I had to hazzard a guess, I'd say possibly a Thresher Maw husk?

How does your personal lack of interest in reading == "sloppy"?

Biotics versus talons.. tough call there but I know who I'm rooting for.

I wonder what their definition of "exotic" weaponry is?

The discussion about the relevance of the codex is best had elsewhere, seriously stop taking this rather informative thread off-topic.
