.... Yeah? What's your point? How does that reaper picture in any way look like the Genesis snapshot?

It has four eyes, but they look nothing like the Genesis version, not mention the tubes we see coming off of the main eyes in the comic are far too close to them.... Exactly like the Ilos Statue. And exactly like the Statue, the comic has the nose, and the husk-like markings coming off from the main eyes, following the curve of the head.

Also, guys, assuming that squadmates occupy different areas of the ship like in ME2, where do you guys think Prothy will dwell?

He'll be in Grunt's old den.

Prothean: "Shepard."

Shepard: "Just checking in, making sure you were climatizing."

Prothean: "Your current species still apparently jabbers on with nothing intelligent to speak of, like your ancient ancestors who dragged themselves on hairy knuckles in front of stone caves millenia past.... Return later."

Shepard: And f*ck you too.

The cargo hold seems a little unfitting for a guy like him. Why not one of the observation decks?

Well the thing is that he doesn't, not from what I've seen. He calls him "Sun Tzu with more eyes" and "Buggy", but that's pretty much it. Nothing that sticks.

SWM might know more than me, though.

There's one part where he signs an autograph with a "P"

That's pretty much all there is. I'm wondering if there'll be a story that explains the lack of a proper name.

[BentOrgy]

Maybe he's like Scar from Hagaren; a warrior who lost everything he loved, and was reborn into a being of revenge, and so gave up his name from his former life.

First thing that came to mind anyway.

Thats for you @Bent

 I think i'm probably going to rain on everyone's parade here, but.... is anyone else not remotely impressed with his armor?

Granted, i'm pleased he does actually wear armor, as that does fit in with the whole 'super-advanced race' thing that we know of the Protheans but the style of it just seems so... wrong. Yes, it's a pretty set of armor and does look good, but it just doesn't fit with me. It does give the idea that he is ancient which is obviously what they're going for, but to me it seems like they've gone for that vision and sacrificed the whole idea that his race were incredibly advanced. Being incredibly advanced indicates to me that he should have very high-tech armor, whereas the armor he has is more akin to a Samurai. That seem odd considering Samurai are generally known as traditional and spiritual people, which is at odds with scientific advancement.

Granted, I could be missing parts of the story regarding the leak, so if that's the case feel free to tell me (without going into details). If that's not the case I hope he has more than one armor set, preferably more akin to the final armor set shown in the other scan of 'Prothy' that chassan put up.

It means another thing.

Prothy can look the way he wants. Rather than looking like Ilos statues or that comic.

And it means that he is not bound by simple ME1 lore. And that is great

 Dudes, sorry for spilling my **** all over the whole thread but. 

WE HAVE CONFIRMATION!

 

Congratulations to all who was with us the whole time.


Ah yes, Bent -

Armor is always needed. Barriers don't stay up forever if you charge around recklessly.

Shut up and watch the art.

@LTiberious

You trying to prove something?

We already knew that several elements from Mass Effect's story weren't defined at the beginning, that's nothing new. If you're suggesting that's why the Prothy doesn't have tentacles, then you're still grasping a straws. (As per usual apparently.) as Casey never once mentions either them, or the Collectors. So they may or may not be included in that list.

Not mention I remember Mac in a twitter post once saying that the Collector idea was around near the end of ME1, due to fans asking "What the hell? where did these things come from? Why didn't Sovereign use them? This is so random and stupid!" Etc.

We don't know if the Collector "Look," was around back then, or just the story arc, but that's not the point. The point is simply; we have had numerous reasons, given by Bioware, that the Protheans resembled the Ilos Statues, even after ME2 was released and the Collectors were completed, Bioware said "Yes!" to Darkhorse putting a statue look- alike in Genesis to represent the Protheans. And we've had nothing until ME3 to even remotely suggested that they resembled Collectors. Yet they completely disregard everything they've done this way, and go a with a look that will appeal to the "Yeah, that's badass!" players.

Many people were completely justified in believing that Prothy would look like the Ilos Statues, and are still valid even now. Unlike you and your absurd and empty theories. If Bioware chooses to explain away the reasons I and others (Like Volc) have given to explain why Prothy should be a Cthulhu-Face, I'll be fine. But until then, as fun as Prothy's design is, (Mostly due to his armor, for me.) its makes little sense when placed beside the facts.

Your attempt to irritate me worked, but not for the reason you evidently wanted. I love how, when backed against the wall and your theories completely unglued, you disappeared instantly, but now that this news has appeared, you can't wait to stab at me.

I really like his armour.

I always imagined the Protheans would have a kind of elegance to them, which I think this armour has. I imagine the Protheans were advanced enough that they could make their armour 'stylish', or at least visually appealing, without sacrificing protection. Sort of so advanced that it doesn't look advanced, if that makes sense.

[Nissun]

The armor looks nice and everything, but it doesn't scream "prothean" to me. I know they were going for an "ancient" look, but it doesn't look like that to me either. It looks new. Looks like the medieval-ish armor Dragon Age players got for Shepard.

They should have gone with a design with more... texture. More... old. This one is too shiny.

Also, in the concept art page we saw, the top right design would also have been cool. After all, in ME1 most of the Prothean architecture we see is white and stylish. That one reminds me of that. It also looks like he's wearing a cowboy hat in the picture, but that's just the shadow in the head.

Hell, even a cowboy hat would look cool on him.

[Someone With Mass]

If his armor was shiny when he entered stasis, chances are that it'll remain shiny when he gets out.

Ah yes, Bent -

This is new to me. I take it that is from the art book? Are you sure that isn't just concept art or is that how he will look?

It's from the art book. The other image has his final face model and some armor concepts for him.

[Doctalen]

O ok cool. Looking forward to using him. I wonder, will others be able to understand him too? I know Shepard and Liara know the prothy language but it is not in the translator so would anyone else be able to talk to him?

It would be interesting to see who voices Prothy, and I must say from all the boards I've seen I enjoy the participants on this topic the most.
