It proves or disproves nothing.

I'm going to have to +1 this honestly. If you have low EMS, you suck or did it on purpose. You're not playing Mass Effect right. It's like playing action mode... Posted Image

It's just that I want ALL the content. Why should low EMS be disregarded? It is still content of the game we are discussing. If we stop to take everything into account where do we draw the line? Next thing you do is to disregard everything that doesn't fit with IT... owait.

Are you kidding me?
"But what about the ME2 end where Shepard dies? That should be counted too!"

Low EMS is not nearly as important because it's simply a worse version of something else that already exists. It's like saying we should use an Avenger 1 because it's different than an Avenger X. The Avenger X is better in every way. Not the best analogy, but it works.

You're trolling now, right?
Shepard actually dies in low EMS... there is no indoctrination because she is dead (this also applies to Sheps death in ME2). And there is still the same scene afterwards.
Sheps death in ME2 has next to no meaning in the context of IT. If you look at it or not it doesn't change one bit. Low EMS does.

Hahaha! That was hilarious.

LOL.

Ha thanks. I like that part too. Did anyone catch what I did with Harby's lines at the end? It's hard to notice because they are prerecorded lines, but I hoped some people might hear it.

"We are the beginning, you will be the end."


Alpha - Reaper's entrance to the Galaxy
Omega - Culmination of all the races of the cycle.

Hmmm...

Nope. What do you mean "Shepard actually dies"? And who cares about the Stargazer scene. There are probably more ways to interpret that than the end itself!

It's a very interesting (and unmodified) line, but I was getting at something involving all of his lines. I'll give you a hint: It's a thing adressed to Shepard. Posted Image

Sheps death in ME2 has next to no meaning in the context of IT. If you look at it or not it doesn't change one bit. Low EMS does.

People here are jumping around trying to fit it in, saying it's part of Sheps dream, but at that point Shep is dead, therefor it is real. Real and always the same but for Opt Out.

 Sorry but I am feeling that this conversation is in a grey area. It's effectively unargueable cause no one is gonna win. There are many different ways how to interpret this and all are right until proven wrong by an authority of BioWare. 

 Also I have to comment...who cares about the stargazer scene and low EMS? Not a lot to interpret there. Low EMS it is most likely that Shepard dies and the stargazer scene is just a teaser for future content in the ME universe much like the ending scenes after the credits in Halo. 

EDIT - When I say in Low EMS shep is dead, I mean that he dies after the choice. Most likely cause he lacks the strength to recover after the mental attack, but is still successful in beating indoctrination. Only by High EMS can he survive through the ordeal / injuries.

I'm sorry, I don't understand. Why is Shepard dead already? Maybe TJ is right. Maybe we should drop it. Just like Rif... just like Dem... just like Blur...

Again: because the game files say so and the slow fade to black when the door is opening implies it.

Did you not read my post earlier today about using game files as evidence? Well I'll recap. They all must be taken with large portions of salt, as they are shorthand. Otherwise, you must also believe the "dream foliage" in the Normandy crash means 100% that they are in a dream, which also contradicts Shepard being dead anyway.

TL;DR
The files contradict each other. Posted Image

:D Thanks. By the way, I know it was hard to hear, so I'll explain the Harbinger thing at the end of the video. We all know he's been... interested in Shepard for quite some time. So, he wrote her/him a poem! Posted Image

Seriously, it does rhyme. (I know it sucks.)

Shepard: ಠಠಠ_ಠಠಠ

Your species has the attention of those infinitely your greater
We are the beginning, you will be the end
You are called; you must answer
You insult a future you cannot comprehend

One must not destroy the nation
You are the one wasting lives
The void awaits your ascension
Organic life will not survive

ಠಠಠ_ಠಠಠ

Still fits and the scene looks bugged as it's not completely black and doesn't stop but you can even see camera movement.
Point is the file with the name that Shep dies is specific for low EMS, and still completely in sync with what we see.

 So you're saying in all endings Shepard dies, or in all of them he lives? Sorry, I missed a good portion of the conversation and am trying to figure your arguement out.

Also, if you want to go with the game files, then those leaves are in a dream and control is bad no matter what. You can't have it both ways.

Which would result in high EMS being also a dream, which would result in the last choice being irrelevant, which would result in bad writing. Do you want to believe that?[/quote]
High EMS is a dream.

@TJ Actually, I don't think you missed any of it. I've been trying to understand Megumi and utterly failing today...

DreamFoilage_ is no real support since that is also used in Shepard's dreams. I say re-used assets.


Is Dreamlight_tile used in Shepard's dreams? Cause that would be a place to use it. 


Yes it is used in the dreams, I think it's the texture used on the shadows.

Hmm. Doesn't prove anything, but it's interesting. Especially once again when you consider everything in the end to be "flipped" or reversed.

I'm saying Shep dies at exactly that point in low EMS.
