The musical backround in the dream sequences is the same piece of music played during the end of the game. :huh:


I thought that music was oddly familiar! I don't think that Bioware, with as much money as they threw at this, would reuse a key piece of music with out a darn good reason.

I no longer believe in Indoctrination Theory.  I no longer believe in Indoctrination Theory.  Going to keep repeating that until it's true.  But man I wish we could mod the game and actually make it happen.  So many cool coincidences.

Also, could someone repost the link for the Retake fan reactions video in case anyone missed it today?  I searched on youtube but couldn't find it.  Really well done.

So maybe I have one bioware piece to interpret into a painting for my house after all - Marauder Shields. And the pic goes above wherever games are stored as a vigilant reminder.

Actually, I thought about this a little further and realized that And End Once And For All plays EVERY TIME we see the Vent Kid/God Child in the game! It's playing when he's in the vent. It's playing when he's running for the shuttle/boarding/getting vapourised. It plays during the dreams. And it plays at the end. It's like it's his theme or something.

This is really bugging me now...

Thank you!  I know it's long, but worth it.

Edited to add:

I thought the song playing during the kid vaporization theme was 'Leaving Earth'?

..they should play Gilligans Island or something... it'd be more appropriate for the seriousness Image IPB

But for me that's the whole reason I doubt the Indoctrination Theory - the game just shows signs of being rushed here and there and the ending seems like it wasn't a good lead in even if they meant for indoctrination to be a point of speculation. So I'm left thinking that they ran out of time and resources. Which would explain away just about anything indoctrination theory offers up -- if you think other pieces show signs of rush and budget issues...

Me too. Its like they tried soooo hard to drive home that it was the end and then left us with...? Like the scene in the last promo video where they show the crew on their approach to the Conduit and cut Liara in saying "this is it, isnt it?" 

Me: "It is...?"
I confused again! :wizard:

oops.. 67 hahahaha..  57 is new military retirement age.  And that's just when pension kicks in 100%.

Most people retire around 60 here though unless they really like working.


Oh, okay. That makes more sense and it is similar to the rest of the world. Pensions, huh...no such thing as pensions in the good and old America...(unless you count social security..haha, yeah, right)



Btw, this makes me so sad...:crying:

Retirement age for anyone under like 54 is now 57
MP pensions are decreasing
$8 Billion a year in savings, expected to be back to surpluses a couple years earlier (2014-2015)

Not bad actually.  No real defence cuts.  Diplomats are getting their discretionary funds cut though..

I want us to build a mass relay... take that world.  Canada built mass relays haha

So I'm asking you guys?

Am I being overly critical to think there are other aspects that really show time/resource issues? Do you only see it in the ending?

awww!  Cute Asari babies!!

Yeah it's basically social security... but you can actually live okay off it... most people supplement it with retirement fund income but it's not bad.  Add in Canadian universal healthcare and you're not too bad off.

I really hope they fix the endings.... I've got friends who don't like the movement who still hate the ending and still hope we get it changed/fixed.... gives me hope there.. we're all still united on this Image IPB

i think the ending takes the focus off of everything else that could have shown such issues (the quest journal stood out though IMO)

Garrus probably was holding an adopted baby. The picture that confuses me is the pic of the Quarian baby in (presumably) Tali's womb. Same argument as you: dextro + levo = no babies for you! So either I'm misinterpreting the pic or the artist put in a subtle dig at Tali by having her cheat on Shep and get pregnant from it.
