Vigil was in an isolated research facility. He couldn't have possibly known everything that was going on in the war.


Especially when he was designed to keep the facility in check and nothing else.

True, but they clearly said "As you already know, the Protheans came close to defeating the Reapers once before, and Liara is there (on Mars) digging through artifacts to find some clues"

Not exactly word for word, but as accurate as I can be.

If we already know (which WAS an exact statment) where do we know it from?


We'll we know from ME 2 that there was something about the Protheans that kept the Reapers from being able to harvest them, hence turning them into the Collectors.  They were also the most advanced species in the galaxy at the time, perhaps the put up a bigger fight for the Reapers than anyone might have thought.....


True. They only became Collectors through extensive genetic modification. However, Vigil claims they survived centuries, no more than that. Emphasis on the word "survived". They never faught back, they couldn't. After watching Vigil talk for 18 minutes I've learned nothing new, so the rest is, I guess, left to imagination. This doesn't satisfy me personally, I feel like if some breakthrough way of defeating the reapers is out there, it should have been present (while not obvious) throughout the trilogy. It reaaaally bothers me how he said "as we already know", because as I've also mentioned -  in all my playthroughs I've never once heard a damned thing about this. Putting in 450+ hours of gameplay in both games, and this is new info to me. I'm stumped..

For all we know Nobezy, Its explained in more detail in the final copy of ME 3. Remember by now Liara has had enough time to go through all of the Shadow Broker files.


Yes, it'll be explained in detail at some point in ME3. However, as I've stated, what bothers me is how the lead writer (cannot remember his name) said we already knew it. That's something huge to already know, and I had no idea of it (again with 450+ hours played). That's what bothers me so much about it.

That's a little lazy, because that's almost two and a half hour from now.

I'm technically not back. Not yet. I move back on campus on Sunday. Currently savoring my last few days at home until classes resume.

I'd be in bed right now if I hadn't accidentally all the caffeine.

I missed you guys, too :)


We have to discuss college adventures sometimes since I'm still really new to the whole campus experience. Of course I have a few RL friends to learn from, but where's the fun in all that? It's 2012; I want to learn from a seasoned online-only friend of mine too.

Anyway, yep, good to see you.

Seeing Kai Leng was also pretty rad.


We actually saw him? All I recall was seeing part of his right leg.

Nice to see you. Most FADKGJTALRFADAAAWESOME moment was definatly ( in my opinion) either the Shphard-Illusive Man confrontation or the reaper space battle. Take your pick

It's not lazy. The US West Coast doesn't get to see the program until 0100-0130 PST. So it's just fifteen minutes after that finishes airing.

This thread doesn't have enough complaining in it! Let me start: I only saw one dialogue choice out of everything Shepard says, so the rest of the game must be auto dialogue.

OK, that was funny.

He actually believes that if previous posts are an indication.



Really? Wow. Didn't know that about myself. I guess you learn something new every day eh?

It isn't. Spike TV doesn't air its programming that way. Everything shifts so that everything is the same. No one gets it in North America until 1:oo AM no matter where they are.

I'm thinking he must have mispoke about it already being known to the fans.
