Attempted being the key word.  The geth were too zealous in their retribution.

That's just blatant denial of the intent behind the scene.

Question though: In the case of quantum teleportation, where a person's body would be disintegrated on one end, and then reassembled on the other, would you count that as death of 1 person, and the appearance or another?

If the reassembly is made of the matter from the origin, I'd say the person was temporarily unreadable but, cannot be immediately assumed as brain-dead.
I think a special provision is going to have to be made for matter that gets lost in the process.


The matter disappears from existance. And equivalent matter appears on the other end.

Yep. That is a new person. The old person experienced brain death by modern definition.

I always end up going for peace between the Quarians and Geth only to choose the Destroy ending. Thus wiping the Geth out after using them as cannon fodder to defeat the Reapers. What the Quarians tried to do was horrible but cannot even compare to the unmerciful genocide the Geth carried out. Not to mention severely polluting Rannoch and preventing the Quarians from returning. What did the Geth need with holding onto Rannoch? Why did they need to hold onto any planet?

Even EDI denies that the geth have preferences like organics, and she,  do

If there was a logical reason, there would have been data.

You know, I believe the Geth would of been better if they weren't part of the "enemy faction" and written in the story in a way that wouldn't conflict with gameplay. Might of gave them better justice.

What did she say exactly?

And what would make EDI such a big expert on the Geth?

Then so is overzealous. The only crime that the Geth are guilty of and that the Quarians are not (in this case) is success.

What were they supposed to do?

"Oh you want to kill us? That's cool, go ahead."

Keep in mind they didn't (as far as I know) have any space ships to leave Rannoch either.

Thought you'd say that. I know someone else who feels the same way.
The majority of our cells didn't experience things we remember to be part of our past too.

The geth also aren't alive, there is that little detail.

Nope. Quarians are guilty of that too. Even against Quarians.

They're more alive than some of the people Shepard has met throughout his travels.

"Praying" at that Geth Leg figure, during Feros. Legion. Dat ass.

No, but they don't make one  wrong either. To blame the Geth, and forgive the Quarians is silly.

It boils down to numbers. If I need the war assets I make peace. I don't understand why Tali leaves it up to Shepard to make the call. It's not Shepard's call.

Tali, be a fkn Admiral! Don't ask Shepard's permission. This is your world. Kill Legion on your own! Don't leave it up to Shepard! Do you care about your people or not? (ren interrupt prevents it -- take your chances on a peace dialogue)

This was the most contrived situation in the game, and it makes absolutely no sense at all.

Then you give Shepard the choice of killing Tali and going back to Hackett with nothing. Or accepting Tali's decision.

And before we judge the Quarians let us not forget that our own history is written in blood.

No legion is. And Legion is independant of the geth consensus.
