Btw, I don't read that text as support for slavery. You can harness the strengths of your enemy by making peace with them and exchanging knowledge and technology.
Sure, but thats a control support sig, and thats not the way it happens in control.
Actually, I'd disagree. The collective intelligence of the Reapers (the Catalyst) gave Shepard that choice so he somewhat accepted the terms of Control.
I dont think the godchild says that hes the collective intelligence of the Reapers, does he? He just says he controls them.
He says he embodies the collective intelligence of all reapers. Whatever that's supposed to mean, exactly.
Also, the controlling intelligence in Control is not Shepard. It admits it's not Shepard. And what's more it talks and is implied to think like a reaper.
It was reaper thinking that caused the whole cycle in the first place. Also, where will new reapers come from in Control/Synthesis anyway?
