I don't visit the forum as much as I'd like..and perhaps this belonds in the Mass Effect 2 forum....

But has it been explained why the Protheans in the first mass effect(at least those statues) look different than what they look like in Mass Effect 2(and now 3 with that supposed squad mate).

[AxisEvolve]

The statues on Ilos were not Protheans after all.

We'll find out more about that in game...

[CroGamer002]

Statues of Ilos are alien race that came 1 cycle before Protheans.

That race was also mentioned in ME2 in one of planet description.
You can check Wikipedia for all races in ME universe and you'll have 50/50 chance to guess which race.

Ah? So it's been said we'll have an explanation in Mass effect 3?...hmmm

Interesting..didn't see your post when I posted above.


Find it odd the Protheans had the statues...

Guess they knew about the reapers before us...yet still failed.

We seen Prothean pyramids and beacons all over ME1.

I think isolated planet like Ilos could keep statues.
Hell, Prothy even says Ilos was just a rumor during his time.

Very true...forgot that Illos had parts of it hidden from the reapers.

Now I want to know how the hell the Prothean squad made is alive.

I'm thinking cryogenic sleep.

He was in cryo. Kept for the purpose of re-establishing the prothean race in the future.

Was that in the leaked script?

Good vibes.

My problem with a Prothean is the simple matter of language.

How the **** are we supposed to talk to him?

I'm guessing the "translator helmet" thingy....maybe it'll get an update when me meet the prothean? /sarcasm

[nolanG]

There's the Cipher, but I don't know how the other squadmates would understand him.

Vigil used translation technology to speak to you on Ilos?
The protheans aren't ******-habilis remember they are more like ****** novus...

Are you asking me if she did...I'm confused by your question.


I'm talking about the lore of the game...where people communicate through their translators that they keep on them. Its in the codex.

I was making a joke that it would just "update" to translate the collector. As in...Bioware won't really explain it. It'll just be a codex entry that say, "Prothean language was easy to translate....everyone on the citadel now can understand protheans"

I'm not talking about the Cipher...I'm talking about how EVERYONE has a translator device.

Same as Ilos, but he was only one in cryo, unlike 1000's on Ilos.

There was lot more power to spare for him.

Also, no Vigil as well, one that also drain power.

[CroGamer002]

About how you get understand Prothean.


Well, when you meet him first time only Shepard can understand him do to cipher.
But Prothy can't understand Shepard, so a bit awkward situation.

After that script just jumps and we find out Liara managed to translate Prothean language and upload it for translators.

Though that often happen in script, that just jumps.
Large parts of leaked script are missing and unfinished.

[LombaxWarrior]

So what you are all saying is that the statues on Ilos and all of that has with stood 100,000 years I'm just saying

[CroGamer002]

^We seen Prothean spheres and pyramids all over ME1 and ME2.


Nobody complained.

Plus, Ilos was isolated planet even for Protheans.

[LombaxWarrior]

All I'm saying is how could all of the statues and other things before the protheans still be standing and I still don't trust the protheans I think they were mad that they didn't get to ascend

[CroGamer002]

^wut?
