All three choices reflect the Catalysts view of the universe.  By choosing any one of them you further its goals.

Not necessarily, that pre-supposes the catalyst is telling the truth about all the options available.

If anyone's wondering why BW was so silent lately, they were busy helping with the DPRK's rocket launch. Yet another fail for BW...


That's horrible, I lol'd.

i'd say only two choices reflect its view and you all should know which two ;)

Maybe so, but I can't assume he was lying about them either.

I just read my issue of Game Informer that came in the mail.

It had 2 scores for ME3.

10 and 9.75 <_<

The 9.75 one outright says "Don't be dismayed about some users' complaints about the ending; I've been a hardcore fan of Mass Effect from the beginning, and I am completely satisfied with this conclusion to the most ambitious video game project I've ever had the pleasure of playing."
-Joe Juba

What game was this guy playing?

If I didn't get this magazine for free with my Gamestop Pro membership, I would cancel it...


They were playing a game that GameStop would love to sell more copies of, hence what in my mind is a severely biased and untrustworthy review.

I dont go to major review sites or magazines anymore for game reviews, too many of them are on the take in some form or another (advertising etc), so they can't be trusted to give an unbiased opinion at all.

Destroy validates his flawed logic that synthetics will eventually destroy organics.  Since you are forced to kill the Reapers (and the Geth and EDI) in order to achieve peace.

That's the point, you cannot assume anything, you only have his word, like does the destroy ending really destroy "ALL" synthetic life or does it just target the reapers, for those who want to save EDI and the geth, the destroy ending becomes less desirable.

So does anyone know how long it would take to get from Earth to Tuchanka using FTL drives?

It'd be interesting to know just how useful FTL drives actually would be if Mass Relays are gone.



OVER 100 years.

voyager was just beyond the delta quadrent and they had 72 years at warp 9.996 to get home but they would have to stop every few days to let the engines cool and resupply and so on so it would have taken roughly 109 years.

now in the ME universe the engines would need to stop every few hours as they are prone to overheating BUT if it was possible to fly there in FTL 24/7 it would take WAY OVER 100 years


So it's useless. All those colonies that required minerals and supplies brought in are dead, curing the krogan and then stranding it's only wise leader on earth, basically guarantees the krogan will destroy themselves again. Basically galactic civilization is doomed. Some kind of ending. Why did I try to stop the Reapers again?


When did you ever stop the Reapers?

At the end of ME 3 you accepted their flawed ideology and turned into a little **** for the Catalyst.

I suppose we really shouldn't take their tweets at face value. I mean, we did that with Casey, and see how it ended...

Now only if I believed a word of her twitter, lol. They're either lying outright, or retconning the hell out of their red ending to turn it into the magic rainbow happy ending.

Both options suck.

The latter option does not suck for me if I accept the catalyst is bluffing in an attempt to keep my Shepard from choosing destroy.

 Someone should tell the Bioware peeps tweeting to begin their messages with something like "Opinion:" or "Fact:" because it's getting ridiculous...

I'm looking at you Merizan<_<

I love that other person's tweet "buuuuut TIM said she was made of reaper tech on the cerberus mission !"
Ergo, HE'S LYING OF COURSE! Isn't that obvious? They ALL lie, but of indoctrination or whatnot :whistle:

Yeah I commented on that earlier when it was posted here. What she said was simply not true. EDI was built in part from reaper tech. That's a fact. But they're going to turn around and just say, "oh because such and such circumstance this never effected her". It's not that hard to come up with excuses.

lol i personally dont remember him saying that at that point, he just says something like he's ashamed shes working so hard to stop the reapers or something and uses her to prove a point on control, i know her core and such is made from reaper tech but the body isn't

I'm not happy with a cop out like that. Maybe it's just me.

Well that, yes but the no choice "choice" as well and... all of it really.  What were they thinking? Maybe... we wouldn't notice? Didn't GI imply that there were only a "few" disgruntled gamers?. ...Heavy on the sarcasm :pinched:
