Be that as it may, I don't get how you equate "clearing rubble and toxins" with the geth having rebuilt immaculate cities and towns.


Well,it could be like Chernobyl,they evacuated and left things how they were,and there are just buildings in places,just rotting...but it has been 300 years,course I don't know what kind of planet Rannoch is.


Maybe not immaculate. Chenobyl is probably closer to what I was thinking, although it's an arid planet, and I think the futuristic building materials used in Mass Effect would last longer. 

Either way, I see it as being a (less damaged) version of Feros. Like Earth after a hundred or so years, but with all of the humans having vanished overnight.

Earth. I was hoping to be able to explore a futuristic Earth, explore some of the big US cities, etc.

But since the Reapers are making it Ground Zero, there goes that idea. =/

If the Reapers are made from different species, wouldn't each individual Reaper have it's own home planet?

The quarians on Rannoch didn't "vanish", they were brutally, relentlessly and systematically exterminated in a global war. Seeing as how the geth doesn't care for planetside bases, I don't see why they would leave standing buildings.

You really think the quarians would high-tail it off their planet at the first sign of trouble? They more likely fought for years and finally, after losing billions of their people and with their homeworld in ruins, realized "Oh sh!t, we are going to be driven into extinction if we stick around, let's take everyone we can aboard some ships and bail before we become another rachni."

I'm just looking forward to seeing Rannoch, ok?

Must have started somewhere though even if one species started it. I doubt was like dozen different species all mutated at same time or all proposed the shift to one technology or idiology. I'm pretty sure one species would have started it off in the direction it later became so their homeworld would be one I mean't. I assume because if started there the influence and most important aspects must be there. Something like Z'ha'dum I guess.

So hostile jeez...why is it so hard to beleive that even in the global war,some cities and towns weren't absolutely flattened,if there were no quarians why would they just blow up buildings that were uninhabited?

I wonder if the homeworld of the original Reaper(s) even exists anymore, considering how long they've been around. I suppose it could be involved in a plot about learning the Reapers origin to find their weakness. It could be interesting. Perhaps it's that weird planet-sized supercomputer thingy? It would make sense.

So am I, but if you're expecting some semblance of untouched civilization, you're going to be sorely disappointed. It is not in the interest of the geth to maintain quarian cities and settlements, especially not since the only ones who would use them are the tattered remains of the creators who tried, and still are trying, to kill them.

Earth and Palaven (or rather the moon near Palaven I believe).

Thats a very valid point I have to say, given time since started on the path they chose and what became, it is possible the original world no longer exists. Also have to say that you could be right about the planet in your link, it wouldn't surprise me. However I would still love to land and explore, first via vehicle then on foot for the majority of the exploration when inside learning about the culture and how it all came about (the origin of it all).

Then again it could just end up like fifth element where planet being the origin begins to move itself heading to earth like some silly death star. Would be slightly disappointed with that method though.

There were quarians. Billions of them, in fact. Even if they abandoned their cities, it's in the interest of the geth to flatten the cities to deny the quarians the ability to return and repopulate them.

Two words: Scorched Earth.

It's hard to believe since it would be such an obvious copout on BioWare's part, not only giving the quarians an easy way out of their "Where will we live?" problem but also the Tali romance shenanigans:

"Oh look, Tali, there's a completely unharmed house where we can live and have our abominable mutant hybrid babies once I have dealt with the Reapers."

No offense against Tali. No, really. Just pointing out that it would be a copout. Shepard should build the damn house himself, brick for brick.

In ME3, after we retake Rannoch, I want to see large fields covered in thousands of quarian tents. That's how their new civilization should begin. Not in pre-fabricated cities.

I would prefer ruins. Just saying that is my preference rather than tents.

Wouldn't it make the most sense for the three liveships to land on Rannoch and the Quarians to live in and around them?

Probably similiar to present day Middle East, under the Geth occupation..

Palevan and it's moon. Turians have playes such a large part of the series but we've never really had a chance to see them fleshed out. I am also suspecting that is where we will pick Garrus up. I am also taking Ash with me because I bet she will have some interesting dialog on Palevan.

Sense has nothing to do with my preference lol. I just like look of ruined cities. Reminds me of my childhood hanging around and exploring ruined and disused buildings. Finding traces of what was there before and imagining how it was when was not ruined. Ruined cityscapes are appealing to the eyes when overgrown with vegatation imho the sense of anything could be there living amongst those ruins which is the whole concept of exploration to me. :lol:

Once found set of skeleton keys that unlocked all the post boxes in town amongst many other types of locks and buildings, don't worry I handed them in to cops I was only like 8 y/o. Finding weird bottles of things that made places feel like frankensteins lab. Never opened wasn't a dumb kid. :D

Because a prothean living in stasis for thousands of years is more beleiveable then a few (maybe made of stone) buildings or structures not being destroyed.


:bandit: Awesome.

Also,if they repopulate Rannoch they will probably use those pre-fab units human colonies have.
