I'd take a conventional victory with horrible losses over the current endings any day.

EDIT (some might say Destroy gives you that, with just a few losses, but we should not even have to deal with that AI scumbag at all, that's why so many like Refuse I suppose - you get to resfuse his options)

It's obviously a Capital Ship. Look at them. It's the same one as in the picture. It has nothing to do with scale.

Yet its a Destroyer while scale and behavior is important, which that tells us that its not a Capital ship.


What evidence do you have for it being a destroyer? 

Because it's quite clearly the same model as a Capital Ship. Scale is irrelevant. You don't know what the scale is. Behaviour is irrelevant. Capital ships act the same multiple times in the game.

You literally have nothing to back up your argument. It's a Capital Ship, sorry. You're wrong. Deal with it.

It should be around 2 kilometres long. It does seem to be much smaller in the movie, Kodiak has like, what, 10 metres? It should be 1:200 scale, looks like somewhat less. It certainly has a model of capital ship, not destroyer. It is either sloppy moviemaking, some other Reaper type, like transport or something, or the scale is correct and it just looks weird. It is much bigger than Destroyer, Destroyer has just 160 metres.

Yet you assume that Destroyers only come in one form but its still about scale and behavior because it doesn't dwarf the kodiak as much and a Capital ship wouldn't be alone.  Maybe its a Reaper transport but we still have very little knowledge on the Reapers.

Yet you assume that capital ships only come in one size? Also, since when capital ship can't be alone? I can't really tell what it is, it seems to be bigger than 160 metres long destroyer, and at the same time smaller than 2000 metres long capital ship. Some picture comparing size of Kodiak to capital ship would be handy, to properly judge how big should be capital ship's "legs" with Kodiak flying under. You know nothing about "behaviour" so don't use it as an arguement.

Scale and behavior is my evidence while they're far from irrelevant even when this is your opinion.  Capital ships are a lot bigger then the Leviathan Reaper and no Capital Ship would be alone especially when the Reapers knew where their creators were located.

I'm not assuming anything and the Reapers would send in a Capital ship alone to be taken over by their creators.  Either way the Reaper isn't a Capital ship and little is still know about the Reapers.  If knew about behavior then you would know that Reapers are usually in packs and the Capital ships are like officers in the military, which means they wouldn't go somewhere alone on a mission.

Eh, Crucible would have worked fine as an "Anti-Reaper" Macguffin. They just need to cut out the star child and the "Space Magic!" synthesis nonsense.

You don't know what the scale is. 

That's what Capital ships look like, far more concrete evidence than what you're suggesting. 

and no Capital Ship would be alone especially when the Reapers knew where their creators were located.


But a Destroyer would be alone? Better to send a Capital ship. They act alone often enough. Sovereign? 

The Leviathans also aren't the creators of the Reapers.

Another shining example of logic by Blueprotoss:

- all Destroyers look the same - assumption
- all capital ships are the same size - not an assumption
- capital ships don't operate on its own - not an assumption (even if directly contradicted by ingame material)

I should know better then to discuss with you.

I desperately wanted an ending similar to ME1 - heroic Shep emerges from rubble after defeating Soverign despite all odds. Suppose I'm the the minority...and uber naive, but I am what I am. :P

Unless your Shepard is a vanguard of justice or completely unpredictable, refusal to choose is incredibly rediculous. I really do not understand all the hate for the endings. I bet 2/3 of those who post on these forums against the ending haven't even played it.

Might i remind you all of Baldur's Gate?

It's suggested that might happen in destroy, but still, this isn't a comic book. Therefore the ending certainly does not HAVE to be an "oh Shepard beats the reapers, all peace is restored with literally nothing bad happening like with destroy ending and he lives to be hero" nonsense ending... the thought of that makes me feel ill.

Its still a Destroyer when it has the same scale as the Rannoch and Tuchunka Reapers.  Capital Reapers travel in groups while Destroyers can travel alone.

Then what was Sovereign (a capital ship) doing alone in ME1.

Never said it ha HAD to be an "oh Shepard beats the reapers,...blah, blah, blah".....  Simply telling OP what I wanted out of the ending.  We all have our opinions.  That is simply mine.  Is my opinion flawed?  Possibly, yes...no.  Who knows?  

This is also why there is (again in my opinion) no "wrong" ending.  Bioware wanted a game with very ambiguous ending.  So that there may be several endings - very different in there results as well.

Destroyers are the basic Reaper ships because if they're lost then its not that hard to replace unlike Capital Reaper ships.  Sovreign acted as a solo Reaper to a degree to spot problems but Harbinger always had sight with the Collectors.  The Leviathans are the creators of the Reapers especially when some became Harbinger the 1st Reaper.

Yet I'm not the one making assumptions and I see that you don't want to have a discussion anymore based on you trying to use petty insults.

The Collectors were still there being controlled by Harbinger, which means that Soreign wasn't truely alone.

Visual evidence confirms the Despoina Reaper as a Sovereign-class Reaper. Case closed.

Sorry but I do not agree with you.

We did not learn about the Collectors in ME1, we had to wait until ME2.

Sovereign was ALONE, it had to look for allies, such as the Geth and Saren.

The Collectors are Harbingers thralls, they are his tools.

You don't know what the scale is. Since you don't know the scale, comparitive evidence is to be relied upon. 

And that makes you wrong.

So you acknowledge Sovereign acted alone. 

What's the problem then?

The Catalyst created them, you're told this by the Leviathans in their DLC. The Catalyst struck without warning and turned its creators into Harbinger. 

"It chose our kind as the first Harvest. From our essence, the first Reaper was created. You call it Harbinger."

The Leviathan says this.

Yet the Collectors were still around and they didn't need to be with the Collectors because the Reapers thought Sovreign would win.

If I didn't know what scale is then I would be acting like you because scale is part of what ships are classified based on their size.

Yet the Catalyst said they were willing to become the 1st Reaper and they also did create the Catalyst.  Btw you should use all of the diaoge not just one selected sentence.

Saying "you're wrong" enough times trumps actual proof. Right?
