I can't be the only one who checks in on this forum who wants to smash other users in the face whenever they try to derail any discussion of the game with the phrase "space magic"
What's more is how selective you are with what you do & do not consider to be space magic.
For instance, you are all, presumbly, perfectly happy with biotics. You're all, presumbly, happy with the entire premise of the Mass Effect, which isn't just an improbability, but bends the very notion of physics in ways that are simply not & will never be possible. & don't start flinging links to theoretical FTL technologies at me. I know the terrain.
& you know what, I'm happy to take the leap with all that stuff because that's what Science Fiction demands.
To top it all off, you have the audacity to disregard as trolls anybody who disagrees with this absurd retake movement.
I never thought this would happen with any creative work that i enjoy, but the fans of this game are actually making me resent the game.
EDIT: to summarise. the use of the phrase space magic to describe anything that you dislike about the me universe is annoying.
Okay. To put "Space Magic" into a wonderful example imagine the following.
You watch The Lord of the Rings - the Special Extended Blu-Ray Edition - eat chips, drink coke, have fun with the characters, like the story find the battles awesome and then we come to the part, where Frodo shall throw the Ring into the fiery chasm.
Then - suddenly - Jake Lloyd as Anakin Skywalker appears and tells Frodo, that Sauron and his Orks were a creation by him, so that men, elves, hobbits and dwarfes don't try to use their abilities to create Orks, because they would kill them all. Instead the Skywalker-Orks show up every now and then to remind people of how dangerous Orks are. So now Frodo has three choices:
1) Kill all Orcs and elves, as they are partly Orcs, and die (except if Boromir is alive, then the war assets of Gondor would be sufficient to give him one last breath)
2) Control all Orcs, but in doing so he becomes Sauron and Frodo dies.
3) Merge Orcs and all other life into a new form, but he has to jump into "Mt. Doom Lava ™" and die.
Frodo has no other option, nor is he thinking about one. Whatever he chooses, a fleet of Star Destroyers will appear and suck all magic out of the world with red, green or blue colored Turbolasers. They will also lay waste to Middle-Earth, just for the fun of it. The more war assets Gondor has, the less damage will be done.
Frodo chooses - doesn't matter what, but we see Aragorn on board a Númerrámar (a small, fast Númenor-ship) trying to outrun the Star Destroyer laser-blasts in the color of which ending Frodo chose (how he came from the Black Gate to the Ocean - 300 Miles away - is not explained). The shockwave hits the ship and apparently rip it apart. Then we see Aragorn on a lush island climbing out of the shipwreck, followed by Arwen if option 2 or 3 was chosen, and Pippin. If option 1 was chosen not Arwen exits the ship but Éowyn and someone else of the fellowship.
Credits roll
We see a scene, where some grandpa tells a kid a story about the Hobbit.
Finito.
