She could've given you bulletproof skin that makes you invincible but she never does. The only logical answer is that she must have wanted you to get hurt and put your life into danger.


Chakwas has been with me since the first game. She has proven herself over many many years. EDI is a highly corruptable and incompetent computer. Also, doesn't it bother people that she's built with reaper tech?

You shouldn't talk to her. As well as any other character you don't like.

Really, is there ONE character in your squad you can be a jerk to in ME3?


You can turn plenty of people down. EDI has a ton of plot armor, and her romance with Joker is almost unavoidable.

Why is here romance with Joker a problem?


A toaster computer simply doesn't deserve it. She can't return real organic emotions.

Considering that she can't even hide the ship from reapers even with stealth and a reaper IFF, she's either untrustworthy or incompetent.

1.She clearly can return thoes emotion. She even said she would die for him. You still haven't given me a reason why her romance with Jeff is bad?

2.It's reapers. Theycan find anything if they wanted to. The made it clear when they blow up the last normady. The reapers tech is that advance. It not her fault if sending out signals attrack them.

Nope, I don't trust her. EDI was built by Cerberus, so I "trust" her as long as Shepard's goals and Cerberus' align. EDI did not "prove herself" during the suicide mission - because it's exactly what she'd have done if she was working for TIM first*

In particular, EDI being in control of the Normandy is the main reason I destroyed the Collector base - because EDI could easily have killed Shepard once back on the ship, this was the only way to ensure it wouldn't fall into Cerberus' hands.

* You can trust someone when you know that they won't betray you when it would be to their advantage

Oh my god. You do understand she was unshaked then  and didn't have to help?

If an AI has all the freedom to rewrite her programing, what stopping her from rewriting it's programing to not help you?

EDI being unshackled is completely irrelevant; Bayesian statistics, however, is not.

Let's, for the moment, assume that EDI had a secret mission: Capture the Collector base for Cerberus at any cost, killing Shepard if necessary.

Would you expect any changes in her behaviour? No, you wouldn't - you'd expect her to help you track the Cerberus cruiser, navigate the Omega-4 relay and all that stuff because her mission and Shepard's (stop the Collectors) align.

As a result, your posterior odds for trusting EDI are unchanged.

Once you blow up the base, EDI has nothing to gain from breaking cover, so again, her behaviour will be exactly the same. Therefore, at the start of ME3 I still have no less reason to believe that EDI has a secret Cerberus mission then when Shepard first met her.

Add the cerberus base videos pretty much proves she is not with cerberus.

That's a video you get to see at the very end of ME3. You cannot use this information to justify Shepard trusting EDI before then.

You also would have died at the Cerberus base mission without EDI.

Legion explores this further than any other AI in the game.

No he doesn't. He only brought up the question indirectly.

No, I recall him asking it straight up.

No, he did not. He played a recording of a geth asking it. It was not him directly. Then he reminded Shepard of the question. Edi still explores it furth any way.

"Tali'Zorah...  does...  this...  unit..  have..."

Yeah, that's not asking directly at all.

EDI also helped you hit the Reaper on Earth with the missiles.
It's all part of her evil plan though.

1. Of course that realevent. Being unshakled means that she is choosing to help. She is not being force to help at all. It relivent.

2. Ofcourse I can use it as proof. They is way more things I can use then that video but I clearly can but it prove she is trust worthy. You would not even be close to winning this war with out her.

2. So if EDI has reaper tech and reaper IFF installed and stealth, are you really telling me that she can't hide me from reapers? If not, then she is just inferior or incompetent.

Yeah she's trustworthy, and I don't really see what she does questionable in the game, besides romancing joker.

Joker: "Oww. **** **** ****! Hey watch the arm! "

EDI: "I enjoy the sight of humans on their knees"

Joker: "What the ****? I think I fractured some ribs"

EDI: "This is proving to be an illuminating experience"

Joker: "You start singing 'daisy bell' and I'm done"

Don't
forget the part where she says, "That was a joke." EDI doesn't
understand the severity of the situation, so was the joke necessary at
the time? No, because the whole crew is being kidnapped, but she doesn't
understand humor like we do. 

No, that was my impression of their coitus...

Ohh... Awkward!

It doesn't bother anyone that she's built with Reaper tech because she constantly talks about how she despises the Reapers and because she repeatedly helps you against the Reapers. She even helps you kill Reapers.

I don´t trust any synthetic. I consider them to be malfunctioning machines, and not living beings. Thats also why I have no problem sacrificing EDI along with any Geth that might be persuaded to jump from a moving sky-car. It´s not that they´re bad people per se, they´re just not really.. people.

EDI has never betrayed or lie to me. She has proven herself over and over again that she is loyal and a friend. The question is why should I not trust her?

He only did that when the rannoch reaper died to make the geth better.

Reaper IFF is only to use the Omega 4 relay and not get pwnedsauced when you land on the other side. She can't hide Normandy's scanners when you use them. That's like asking someone to stealth the flares you just launched.

You can tell from EDI's tone she means what she says. There's also some body language.

The IFF only existed to make it past the Omega-4 relay. The Reapers can still see through it.

1. How is it simulated if she's the one that writes it in her code? She choosed to write it in her code, that means it's real.

2. No, the reaper is a system that is linked together as one. (The catalyst tells you this)A reaper can just check it's systems to see if what they are sensing is a real reaper. Every reapers location would be knownwhould be know. If it matches that there is no record of one reaper is there then it invetigates.
EDI would have to hack into the catalyst system to full hide from the reapers. She can't do that.

She can't turn you invincible. Get over it already.
It's just a gameplay gimmick added to the space exploration and planet scanning part of the game. You're putting more thought into it than any of the devs have.

Replay rennoch. He had it way before then. He had it from the geth dednought mission.
