The potential's there of course. And if they are being used as such, that is an abuse of power by the Council. We're agreeing with the theory.
Question is have they done so? If yes these were tyrannical actions. If no, tyranny does not play into it.

The council has no official power over individual species' governments and the view was that the quarians brought it on themselves.MisterJB wrote...
Their indifference towards the plight of their subjects has caused billions of death during the Morning War (the quarians were an embassy race at the time) and millions when the Collectors and Geth attacked humanity.
And while we do have a spot, that has actually weakened us. The Council appropriates out ships to patrol Council Space and when we request for help to deal with the Collectors, our councilor is voted three to one.
Again we're talking about scale here. Organics are far beneath the level of this intelligence. There is no reason to notice them apart from human Shepard's thoughts. But the entity is self-modifying which means eventually that will fade. Indifference will result because again, they're far beneath its level.Humans have done both towards Earth's fauna for a long time. And a human has never been an ant. However, ReaperShepard used to be human which would influence its actions.
Regardless,indifference towards the galaxy is, evidently, not what the developers intended for Control.

Incorrect. The economic reports were already leaked, the volus condemned the actions. Vasir was sent in to investigate and arrested 6 members of the group TruthHax. Four were shot in an "internal" struggle. Seems legit.MisterJB wrote...

"Bickering" will register to the mind of a machine god? I would think its definition of bickering would more akin to Rachni Wars/Krogan Rebellion one species goes on a killing spree against the others type of thing. You can argue principles and rights all you want but no one wants a new uprising.MisterJB wrote...
RenegadeReaperShepard speaks of becoming a powerful leader that will end the bickering of the many.
So yes, I do believe it will give orders and expect them to be obeyed and those who don't will come to regret it.

Got a bit of an interesting question for you folks, mostly in regards to Miranda but could apply to any LI. Hypothetically, if there were a "reunion" scene at the end of the game where Shepard is found alive in the wreckage, would it be in-character for Miranda to cry?
I do have a reason for asking this, though I'm keeping it under wraps until I can figure out if it's possible. *smirk*
You mean a nuclear deterrent? *pointedly holds up Watchmen*. Yeah, this describes exactly where that leads. And I like it (well from the deterrent's point of view. The socio-political situation can get quite tense).Dr. Doctor wrote...
I'm thinking that Reaper-Shepard sort of becomes the nuclear option for galactic civilization. It's completely within his power to start the cycle back up again at anytime. The Reapers rebuild everything and then proceed to watch the galaxy.
What worries me is that the Catalyst came to the conclusion that Organics and Synthetics could never get along and decided to turn it's creators into the Reapers against their will. What's to keep Shepard from coming to a similar conclusion that starts the cycle of destruction all over agian?
Agreed. Dignified tears, maybe a bit more than during the breakup scene but not full on sobbing.Yannkee wrote...

I think it is.
We've already seen her cry during ME2, she also cry if you break up with her at the begining of ME3.
I think it would be weird to not see Miranda let her emotions flow in a reunion scene, considering her feelings for Shepard.

That's pretty much what I was thinking; not full-on "I can't breathe because I'm crying too hard" but rather the overwhelming relief and elation one would feel, even for someone as reserved as Miranda tends to be. Definitely more emotion than we've seen from her, but perhaps given the circumstances it's understandable.CrutchCricket wrote...

Pretty much exactly what I was thinking, though I'd go just a slight bit further (and I do mean slight). Kind of an "You crazy son of a ****, I can't believe you did it" thing. Maybe a little cliche...but I've got some interesting ideas mulling around. An homage to Mass Effect 1, if you willDr. Doctor wrote...
Crying along the lines of the breakup scene except much happier.

I was thinking more of having them both on their knees, with Shepard having barely enough energy to keep upright (and perhaps half-blind from his destroyed synthetics).jtav wrote...
And smiling. Not with her usual irony but unrestrained happiness. I'm also envisioning her cradling him the way he cradles her in the death scene.
A little more than that. I wish I had a good example of what I was thinking...kind of like "The Grey Havens" from LOTR but happier.hot_heart wrote...
So, pretty much the same tears from the end of her loyalty mission, right?
