We know, the pictures are a simplified image to express displeasure at the endings. End.


Simplified for simple minds. Thus proving me 100% correct.

I'm a real RPer. I've played actual pen and paper role playing games for over 10 years. The OP makes basic logical flaws, fails to acknowledge plot holes, does not respond to any point that his arguement can't defeat, and simply declares himself right when someone tries to discuss a point about objective literary mistakes.

That's not an RPer, that's a zealot. Also, he signs all of his posts with his twitch.tv stream link. That's a conflict of interests, as it's a blatant attempt to monetize his opinions, as an openly contentious and confrontational thesis will be viewed by more people, thus getting his stream more views, which means more ad revenue from twitch.

You don't say WHY they harvest advanced civilizations.

thats the point. Why do the reapers only leave primitive species? So advanced ones don't make synthetics to kill organics.


Reapers are made of organics.  If they kill all organics then where are the reapers going to get their numbers from?  They can't kill all organics without preventing themselves from increasing in numbers.  It is unknown just how many causes of death can overcome a reaper, but it has been insinuated that they do require energy.  If that energy is dependent on organic life then they couldn't just go and slaughter everything without hurting themselves.

That also could stand as an estimate to how long the reapers have been at it.  If all life in any given cycle is enough to make one or two new reapers, then that could help guage how far back everything goes.

Glad you love being called stupid otherwise you would actually pay attention, learn something, and wouldn't be called such anymore. but seeing how you admited to loving it, I now can see why you remain in this state of ignorance

Maybe the star child was scarred by AI at some point in a huge galactic war against the AI. This is thought provoking material. We must understand the mind of the star child.


Here's a more comeplling idea -- get rid of the Starchild.

Instead, leave the Reapers as independent and ultimately "unknowable" forces of evil. That way, we aren't left feeling like we've just massacred/enslaved/become a conglomerate of organic lives trapped inside horrific metal shells. As they are now, they are only misused tools of a misguided machine. Very intelligently thought out.

"We are each a nation, independent...We are beyond your comprehension. We are Sovereign." - Sovereign (the galaxy's coolest, and simultaneously most egregiously uncessary, villain)

I feel accomplished for playing through Mass Effect 1 now. Since, ya know, I stopped Saren and Sovereign from letting the Reapers in. Turns out that neither of them were needed, since the Citadel apparently moonlights as a petulant child capable of doing everything itself.

People, this is a guy who films himself playing video games and posts it on the internet. His opinion is very important.

The fact that the endings are actually artistic perfection, and so complex and well thought out that only highly intelligent individuals can make sense of them... This gives said individuals the immediate right to talk down to anyone who dislikes them and, thus, does not understand them due to a lack of intelligence.

Oh thank you for explaining it to me as I am have a double digit IQ and couldn't possibly understand how intelligent and complex the endings are. I shall bow down in awe of our betters who like the ending.

/sarcasm In case one of you 'idiot' retakers who don't respect artistic integrity and didn't get it.

I don't like the endings but I have to say that the Starchild's plan, while wrong, is not a contradiction.

The Reapers harvest all ADVANCED SENTIENT organic life to prevent them from developing a synthetic race that will kill ALL organic life. From Asari to bunnies. Still hate the little StarBrat but I understand his concerns.

Yes, I think most people understand this. That doesn't make the explanation for the Reapers' motivations any better. It's still incredibly dull, and people made the "yo dawg" images because they're funny. If you don't think they're funny, that's fine, but considering the serious approach you took to this "video game" issue I doubt you have much of a sense of humor anyway.

Looks at The Angry One's recent posts.
Can't find anything insulting.
Looks at you and the OP's posts.
Finds insults.

What a twist.

 Reapers only have to save organics from synthetics because "the created will always rebel against their creators."  So when are the Reapers going to get around to rebelling against their creators?

Your debunction has been debunked.

Are you capable of actually crafting a response to something without resorting to ad hominen attacks?

(Something you and the OP have abundantly in common apparently)
