What's the point of telling them? You're asking for trouble later on if you tell them.

That's need to know and he doesn't need to know.

Pretty sure they won't even have to ask. Big gun went boom. Killed many robots.

Nah. It's better to tell the truth. Secrets and lies are too complicated.

I woulda say, like, "Eyyy, bra, the other choices were getting electrocuted to death or jumping into a beam of light with open wounds. So I just shot them pipes, man"

If EDI and the geth really had to die like catalyst said, I would tell Joker that it was this or spare the reapers. I think he´d understand.

The catalyst didn't say that at all.

The catalyst said all synthetics would die if you pick Destroy. So the Geth and Edi would die.

Joker would know Shepard did what he/she did for the best of reasons. Everyone allied with Shepard wanted the Reapers destroyed.

No. As soon as she's able and has access, my Shepard will go under her bed on the Normandy, and retrieve the quantum locked hard drive that stored EDI while we charged the beam with a copy. A very convincing copy, but a copy none the less.

I think it was implied that all back-ups were also killed.

Why did BioWare have difficulty with the concept that EDI was software?

Shepard doesn't tell Joker how his sister died (and there is no option to do so). That says to me that Shepard will not have the option to tell Joker what killed EDI (and Shepard actually doesn't get that option sitting in the rubble).

Given what I wanted as choices was immaterial, this choice is also immaterial in the scope of the game itself.

If I was given the choice, I'd have Shepard tell Joker about his sister and EDI. He'd hate Shepard, but he'd have answers as foundation for his recovery instead of questions holding him back.

Because they thought they were lacking in the "sexy" department?
Amongst other things :whistle:

Yes. I would tell Joker that EDI has stopped working because its a feature of her software.

She actually wasn't. Most synthetics are hardware and putting the program onto a different quantum computer or even screwing around with the parts in the one you have might well give you a completely different individual.

The geth are the ones who are software.

Bio set up their universe so AIs can be killed permanently. They like killing people permanently. Hence turning the geth into individual consciousnesses so they can be killed permanently too.

Who cares about EDI? She was just a tool I used against the reapers. Nothing else.

Seeing how you're more or less dying in a pile of rumble, I think that is the least of Sheperd's worries.

History deserves to know the truth. In my Destroy ending playthrough, if given the option, then yes.

What about Garrus? What about James? What about the other people under your command?

Yet doesn't Legion upload the Reaper Code. Is that not uploading
software to a hardware platform? Yes it is. Then Legion has to upload himself to them? Bioware doesn't understand their own universe. Their universe is inconsistent when they need it to be, and consistent when they need it to be. So when one creates an AI it is software but once it's created it is no longer software. That's a mind ****. That does not compute.

They are software loaded onto hardware platforms. Sorry. Nothing more than that.

The way AIs can be killed is by erasing the programs or by frying the hardware.

Uh, nope. Shes still software, just because she exists in a blue box doesn't mean she isn't. If BioWare really wanted to show she was dead, they would have had a scene of Joker mourning in the AI core.

As far as i'm concerned shes alive in a high EMS destroy, and there ain't a thing you can do to change that.

I'd tell him. I'd explain that I'm sorry that EDI had to die to eliminate the Reapers but that the cost of not doing so was too high. And it would be up to Joker on how to handle the news.

That comic strip sums up almost perfectly what happened during the... rough landing. EDI's software being completely wiped, along with all the geth software completely wiped.

My Shepard would tell the truth, and say it was the only option since in her mind destroy was the only possible choice.
