Might I remind people that it's actually a common illusion for people to see faces in random data. It's one of those quirky glitches of our instinct to discover and recognize patterns, even when none exist.

Looking at my vids of it now, only looks like a "face' becasue of your contrast and brightening I think. Otherwise it definitely looks like a big chunk of rubble with a lot of chipping.

i see a little bit of a face, but can you circle above the face because look at the over turned Mako. you can see a rectangle in above the circle.

Which is the front part of the mako.

OK, that's too much.  Not to rain on your parade, but put quite frankly, I think this is definitely grasping at emergency induction ports.

Only things i've seen that strengthen it is that whole evacuation scene

And not the odd noise when Anderson wakes up Shepard? Or that the Starbrat reveals itself to be a reaper? Or that the Control and Synthesis epilogues have been made to appear more sinister and suspect, respectively?

To me the part where anderson wakes shep up seemed the same aside from the camera angle. The starchild revealing itself to be a reaper is one i havent seen (unless you mean when it says "us") and the synth./control endings do in fact seem very sinister, especially control.

I didn't see it, despite looking. Does that mean I have superior software? Posted ImagePosted Image

There - I brightened it up a little bit.
That looks like face to me....

Fixed.

Also I love how everyone is trying to correct Payaso.

Can you point out the face?

To me it looks like it could be a part of the beam structure, actually.

-edit- Thought you meant part of the citadel, not the beam. So we're actualyl in agreement. My bad.

yes it does, and so does the lines that make out a Mako.

It's not just you. I always thought it was the "conduit" too.

Not the first time this sort of thing happened actually.. 

>.>

Anyway.

A sugguestion guys; next time we are low on IT things to discuss, what's say we dig through old pages of the thread (and the original too) and see what sort of things we can turn up?

I've found a few gems there myself from time to time while I was first working on the memorial wall.

There is a reason the ending is as it is. If Bioware had "done right" the first time around, then starchild wouldn't exist. We would have had a completely different ending where you don't get to choose what coulour the crucible should fire. We would have a completely different ending. The endings as we have now are intentionally ambiguous. 

But according to the IT, Bioware did in fact "do right."

lol so you are suggesting that EC was Bioware's version of trolling IT?

Actually thats exactly what i thought the first time around lol


Actually, it's kind of the opposite. The EC gives players/Shepard's exactly what they want so they 'believe' there is closure... if you want to call it something believable. It's exactly what the process of Indoctrination seems to do in order to alter the thought patterns of an individual, thus aligning their way of thinking with the Reapers.

I'd say this was more of a trolling on literal interpretation. As many have pointed out, the EC actually strengthened the idea that Shepard is being subjected to the process of Indoctrination.

Only things i've seen that strengthen it is that whole evacuation scene


There is still the breathe scene in the high EMS destroy ending. I chose destroy just to see if they added anything to clarify how we go from being blown up with the Citadel to lying in London's rubble breathing. And they didn't. I found it odd that there is now a Normandy pick up scene, yet nothing to clarify how you survive the Citadel explosion. Don't even try it either. There is no way to explain Shepard's survival in high EMS destroy without IT.

I don't really see anything. It's probably like when you see animals in the clouds. If you completely removed the smoke and then pointed it out then I'd support it. But as it is now, I'm not seeing anything.

If you ccan find those exact shapes and curves anywhere in the game you win the internet. I've looked up and down the game, closest thing are the curved panels that form the inner structure of the Beam but they're NOT and exact match.

I don't know why someones calling that the front of the Mako, considering that objected is a side shot of it not a front shot that'd be more of a side vent than anything. That's assuming it's a Mako at all, could be something completely different.
