@silverexile17s, again... we'll cover everything, point by point. So there's no 'worming' out of anything. We're getting near the end of the first point.... so get the 2nd one you want to hit ready.

The directives are "Complete the Solution through any avalible option, including at the cost of self-preservation.
If it's judgement is proven invalid, it must differ to the highest athourity (Shepard) on what Solution is ultimately valid.
It's directives compel it to accept whatever new Solution is manually inputed into it by the higher athourity, regardless of personal belief.
Completing the Solution is paramount."
It's as simple as that -- the Catalyst never had any choice in the matter after the Crucible docked. And it's directives ensure that it couldn't turn away any option -- which are the three we see, since no non-based Crucible options exist.
And while it could accept stimuli from anyone, it must be Shepard that does this, because Shepard is the one that united the galaxy and got them this far, and Shepard is the only one that could make Synthesis possible, and one of the few with strong enough will to make Control possible. No one else has that track list, so no one else would have the Catalyst's acceptance -- he would just debate with them round and round on what to do.
How much did the Crucible dictate the directives you mentioned?
What was the Catalyst's directives before and after the Crucible docked?
Why? Why bother disecting every little thing when you were handeling it well enough before -- until I pointed out the flaws in your "non-Crucible options" and "Shepard isn't neccessary for the choice" theroies. It's far too convient of you to try and drop it all just because you can't respond to them. Otherwise, you wouldn't have dropped them to begin with -- you aren't responding to any
other threads, and this is your own thread.
Just saying, it's pretty strange that you seemingly don't have the time for your own thread.
:Answer to your topic - It's
not the Crucible at all. It's the Catalyst's own directives that motivate him to use the Crucible. Now that the Solution is proven to be flawed, the Catalyst's directives compel him to fix it with a new one using the tools avalible to him. The Crucible is that tool, through which new possibilities can be achieved via Dark Energy minipulation.
The Crucible doesn't alter his directives at all. It just gives him access to more possibilities for new Solutions then he could have created himself.
The directives themselves
never changed. Not once. There are just more ways to fulfill them now. New means/paths to reach the same goal. Playing Mass Effect, you surely should be able to accept the ideal of "multiple paths to the same goal, without comprimising your "code.""
