Someone kept mentioning how often the word nightmare is used in the game, so I threw together a collection of nightmare quotes from the vanilla game's tlk files. Enjoy.

Mission Tuchanka where you meet the Primarch's son

"The crash site's a nightmare."

Well the conduit run is sure as hell a crash site.

Upon turning and seeing a Reaper capital ship on Thessia,

EDI: I am starting to understand what the word "nightmare" means to organics.
EDI: And why you feel trapped when you can't wake up.

Tali: As a child, I always had nightmares about geth attacking me in my sleep.
Tali: The worst horror I could imagine. Until now.

Later on Thessia

Liara: This nightmare never ends.
Shepard: The hell it won't. We get to this artifact, and we can all wake up.

Shepard: What did you say to the Illusive Man?
Dr. Archer: I told him if his intention was to work with the devil, he only had to look in the mirror. I wanted out of his nightmare.

Out of TIM's nightmare, huh?

Dr. Archer (pulling a gun before killing himself with it): A precaution if I was ever captured by the enemy. Or couldn't wake from my nightmare.

Dr. Archer: I couldn't bear the thought of reliving the nightmare. So I destroyed all of my research--Overlord is no more.

Dr. Archer (Explaining Overlord to a Shepard that never played it): Believe me, it's a nightmare I re-live every night. He went berserk--his mind became a computer virus that infected all our systems.

Damn, Archer has a lot of "nightmare" dialogue. I'm sure it's just a coincidence and nothing to do with his synthesis-control stuff.

Shepard (to Vega): I can hardly believe it, myself. Like everything back on Earth was some kind of nightmare.

Turian Soldier: It's a shame to see another planet get hit like this.
Garrus: It'll be the last one if I have anything to say about it. This nightmare finally ends today.

Liara (encounting ravagers, Reaperized rachni, for the first time on Tuchanka): Now I can have all-new nightmares about them.

Unknown, at Ardat-Yakshi monastery: Garrus after Ardhat Yakshi Monastery Now it's mutated asari. The Reapers are just a giant nightmare factory that never ends.

Shepard and Liara chatting on the Normandy:
"Too bad we never found another Prothean beacon."
"Haunting the Council with visions of the Reapers might've saved us a few years."
"Well, anyone who lives through this war won't be short on nightmares."

Garrus: Javik Some of the crew seems shocked by the monstrosities we have encountered.
Javik: They haven't seen what the Reapers could corrupt after a hundred years. That was our war. Every battle conjured a new nightmare.

Ashley Williams, after Rachni queen mission:
"I still have slime to clean off my armor."
"What a nightmare."
"Dark tunnels, toxic goo, and those damn cockroaches again?"

Unknown, after Rachni queen mission (Wrex or Wreav?): Sounds like it was a nightmare down there.
If I remember correctly, this is Ashley if you don't bring her on the Rachni mission.

Allers doing a live report: Breaking now: A nightmare on Earth. Human leaders using military force on their own people.


Javik before return to Earth: The reapers have haunted the galaxy long enough. It is time to end the nightmare.

Ashley at T-GES Mineral Works It's gotta be a nightmare for these people.




Thanks Rif, it was me talking about it.

I can also add Nyreen to that list from omega. Though i dont recall the exact quote, she refers to the Adjutants as Nightmares.

Hey, so I just came across a real old thread, well. PreME3 release. Just. And I wanted to get the IT experts thoughts on it.

http://social.biowar...3/index/9608202

The link video has been removed. But everything in the thread seems pretty accurate.


I must have missed it, what was the video about?


Dunno, that's why I'm asking here...

Leviathan and Omega both use the term "nightmare" as well as the phrase "Wake up"...

As I said (or rather Arian corrected me on it) someone should hand Bioware a thesaurus :lol:...unless they are trying to tell us something.

Looking over that list I cant see any time Nightmare is mentioned when it isent related to Cerberus or the Reapers. Well except Leviathan, but considering what the Leviathans are...yeah.

Speaking of TGES Mineral Works...


NOTE TO STAFF: This new crossbreed appears harmless and would be inconspicuous in an office environment. However, it is exceedingly dangerous.


I forget... is this re: the poppy-looking flowers on the desk with the datapad, a la the ones on the Citadel?


Not so much the flowers themselves as what they represent thematically...
They are a hybridization which appears innocuous but is actually extremely hazardous...

Actually, Ashley says this after you defeat the Reaper scouting party...
(provided you have certain teammates as a second squaddie, such as EDI)

She says this before you know anything's wrong with the people there...

For anyone who has seen the first Hobbit movie yet, An Unexpected Journey, in the council scene with Saruman, Elrond, Galadriel, and Gandalf:
Gandalf = ITer's
Saruman= Literalists

If you haven't seen it, when you do or if you do see this scene, you will understand what I mean.


I saw the midnight last night and I TOTALLY THOUGHT the same thing. Well, pretty much. I think I was thinking about Shepard and the council, too... "Ah, we have dismissed that claim..."


Just got back, and both of those are exactly what I thought when I saw that scene too!

Literalist see all the parts, but lack the ability or will to connect the dots. Example:

Posted Image

Literalists will see all the pieces, but that's all they'll see, a bunch of parts. There's no car, no greater whole, just a jumble of unrelated metal and plastic objects. We see the pieces, but we also see a car, even if it isn't actaully a car in form.

If you liked KS, you would probably like K-ON


Yeah, I've noticed a lot of people who like KS tend to like K-ON. I might have to give it a shot sometime.


Do it. It's unbelievably adorable and it cheers me up to watch when I've had a sh*tty day.


I looked it up because (partly because it has a weird namePosted Image), and discovered it's about pretty highschool girls who play in a band. Posted Image Must... resist...

Urgh.

One reason I'm glad to be in the UK, we have very little gun crime.  Even gang shootings are so rare it makes the news whenever they happen.

Of course, we have other problems.  But at least firearms aren't one of them.


It's not nearly the problem it's made out to be in America either.

It's not as much as a non-problem it's made out to be in the UK either. Everyone in the countryside's packing like farmers and farmers mums.
Since the police don't carry guns as standard they have major trouble dealing with the occasional mad shooter.


And congrats to Arian for the good grade.

Arian! I almost forgot to ask you, did you ever do any of the other KS routes, or have you been too busy with school and stuff?

Rin's route probably has the most potential for that.

Mine too! And the quote is quite correct. There's not quite the amount of guns in small villages as it shows, but it really is much worse than people think it is.
