I believe (I may be wrong), but you can save Mordin if you lie to Wrex or his brother about curing the genophage - even if you have Maelon's research. HOWEVER, if Wrex is alive, HE WILL ATTACK and you are forced to kill him (Wrex) instead.

I thought those deaths were very well done. Good level of emotion and fitting sacrifices for the war effort.

This 60-something year-old guy raises an eyebrow, his mouth drops slightly, and exclaims "Tali dies?!"  We walked away awkwardly.

Did he proceed to call you guys "my sweet"?

Oh that prayer you have to read over Thane's dead body. Oh boy if that wasn't powerful. "It's not for him. It's for you". Oh god.

Legion died because he save the geth but all that gets destoryed by the ending so hes death was meaningless

Only if you choose to kill all synthetics. That's on you not the reapers.

Thane's was pretty bad ass. I mean him being sick an all, way out of his prime at that point, going toe to toe with Leng. All I could keep thinking was how awesome it would have been to see him in his prime... just beating the crap out of him.

Mordin's was my favorite. It was sad but his attitude through it just made me smile for him the whole time.

There is a sort of real drama in this game. It's needed, I approve it. Mordin's death is really touching.
That's exactly what we need.

I felt like crying at all three deaths, but Mordin's was probably the hardest since he was the first. I was about to cry when I thought I killed Grunt, thank goodness I did his loyalty mission in ME2 otherwise he would've died.

[WizenSlinky0]

I don't really like gratuitous scripted deaths and I felt kinda disappointed that the farther into the game I got the more ME2 characters kept getting the airlock treatment.

But I will say they were amazingly engaging and the send-offs were done well enough for me to feel satisfied with them. I balled outright seeing Mordin in the tower humming and smiling having fulfilled his only real wish. He will always be the model of a scientist salarian to me. He will always probably be tied with Tali in terms of how much I like a character.

Thane as well. Terminally ill and still determined to make a difference up until the very last minute. The scene was touching and engaging.

I cried when Mordin died, not when Thane died, but then again when Anderson died. Anderson especially has always been one of my favorite characters in the series (having the soothing voice of Keith David helps too), I finally broke down when he said "You did good, child. I'm proud of you." I always imagined him as a father figure to my Earthborn Shepard.

I was okay with a lot of the deaths being unpreventable--that's part of life. And I thought they were handled tastefully.

[Phydeaux314]

I was pretty sure Anderson wasn't going to make it to the finish line as soon as he opted to stay on Earth. There was a very strong unspoken second half to "I was born in London..." To me, it was only a matter of when and how, not if. That made it easier, in a sense, and he went out well.

I thought Mordin's was quite well done - I didn't see it coming, but they handled it amazingly well, and while I was sad, I was also happy, because he died in the end knowing he had done what he had set out to do.

Thane's was a real tearjerker. Meeting him and watching him dutifully perform what exercises he can still manage, listening to him talk, watching him slowly slip away as hypoxia begins to take its toll... that was brutal. Then the final scene where he defends the council member from the assassin before getting stabbed, and his final prayer... it was painful enough going through it with my character as a friend, I can't imagine how intense that would have been with him as a love interest.

I feel sorry for the relays and Citadel too, but only because I can't see how the series can possibly continue from this point without either significant retcon to ME3, or delivering a game that doesn't feel like Mass Effect at all.

all those deaths were really well done

[noobcannon]

if you side with the geth and let them destory the quarians, tali's death is very sad. watched it on youtube and i cried like a 5 yr old girl.

 

when tali looks up and sees the flotilla and the rest of fleet falling, and she starts crying, man. waterworks.

 Personally I think Thane and Mordin died in just the right way. I accepted their deaths as tragic, painful but necessary.

Even though the disease was slowly killing him and he only had months to live (or even less considering going over the time scale of the prognosis) to die fighting against a far less competant assassin and chasing him away, felt like the Thane way to go. Even though he told Shepherd that his fighting days were over and he was just going to take stock of things, he was there to give one last push in the defense of his commrade.

Mordin was the "old man" of the team. He was wise, rich in experience and annecdotes and had been alive to witness two of the most important moments in the galaxy, both of which he had a direct involvement with.
He was both one of the developers of the Genophage, and in the end, he made it's cure, liberating the Krogan from this drawn out punishment.
His arc tied together nicely in what was perhaps one of the most emotional moments for in all of the Mass Effect games. To watch Mordin take that elevator to the top of that tower was heart-wrenching, yet his little quip about experimenting on sea shells before his words were cut short by the explosion was typical Mordin humour.

Anderson dying...well unfortunately I could see that happening, but in many ways I would have liked to have seen him make it out. for Shepherd to kill his closest war buddy and mentor, it was poetic in a way, but i don't like talking about this. In my mind how he died still ties into my issue with the game ending. So that's all I can say.

Talk about fighting for the lost.

The deaths were so well done and seemed so finite I assumed they were all canon. (except Tali) Now I feel excited about playing it all over again.

Also Mordins death made me cry for like 40 minutes. I don't mean continuous sobbing I just couldn't get it out of my mind and occasionally would shed a few tears.

[BigGuy28]

I cried like a little baby during Mordins last scene, it was heart wrenching. I think "Would have liked to study the seashells." is the most heartbreaking line in the game. Legions death was pretty sad too. I knew Thane was going to die eventually just wast not expecting how he went, was very happy to see him get one last asskicking in.

Really?! REALLY?! You remind me of this at 4:00 AM when my room-mate is in the next room, and that line forces me to cry like a baby.
