Hey guys,
Like many others I was gutted to see our awesome thread shut down- such an achievement! However I do think it was getting a little bloated and OT (I would trawl for PAGES before finding relevant IT content) so hopefully this thread will be a little cleaner and we can not start going OT or succumbing to trolls (and I thumb my nose at the guy who got the last thread shut down- seriously).
Just to reiterate- I am a total believer in IT. I believe it was planned specifically by Bioware and that EC will bear the theory out and I've laid money down on this bet- I would bet my life savings on it.
Anyway, I have a crazy, totally unfounded theory that springs out of IT, inspired by the following factors:
1. There have been rumours going around of a new MP class called 'Pheonix'. Because the Javik dlc was called 'From Ashes', people have naturally been connecting this class to Protheans, but this makes no sense, since Javik is the only Prothean.
2. Collectors seem 'different' from other Reaper forms. They are, as Liara says 'indoctrinated Protheans'- not Reaper-form Protheans (the Reaper-form Prothean failed)
3. Someone posted in the old thread about a theory that perhaps in the previous cycle the Protheans did create the crucible, and whoever-the-Prothean-equivalent-of-Shepard was got onto the Crucible and again had to make the choice- but they made the wrong choice (control, as Javik indicated there was a group trying to do).
4. A lot of people have been asking: If IT is true, then what does the Crucible actually do?
My theory kind of ties all of these elements together. What if the Crucible is a sort of mass-indoctrination device? What is that was the downfall of the Protheans- that when the device was activated, it actually indoctrinated the Prothean race and was the origin of the Collectors?
Now, skip to the EC: Shepard awakes, gets back to the Crucible. Triggers the device but somehow reverses the polarity (as you do), so that every indoctrinated person becomes un-indoctrinated. You know what you've got then? Every Collector becomes a Prothean again (or, at least, a cybernetically-enhanced Protehan). The Prothean race is born again- like a Pheonix from the ashes. So the MP actually ties into the SP- the Protheans are reintroduced in the campaign and then they are available in MP.
Anyway as I said this it purely speculation and has a lot of problems (like why would the Protheans be fighting the Reaper in MP if you defeat the Reapers in the SP?), but a fun theory nonetheless- would welcome thoughts.
