My only complaint is that Shepard sounds too weak in the first paragon interrupt to save him. On the other hand, if I let him die it drags on too long.

And now I'm finding out there's a whole other set of options if you "mostly paragon" the DLC. But besides the aforementioned complaint. I like my version. Petrovsky doesn't backtalk and Shepard doesn't really care one way or another. He's useful, he surrendered, so he lives.

As a player, I liked the "gentlemen officer" tropes they played, even if they were a bit blatant. And "officer knows he's beaten, honorably surrenders and is taken for questioning" is a fitting end to that archetype.

Aria meanwhile can keep doing her thing. She and I understand each other.

He has an honor code he sticks to. He let aria go when he could have killed her and let anyone who stood down live.

Frankly I'm confused as to how he can stay with cerberus, given with TIM does.

I think it is easy to forget his connection to the problems he creates on the station. Those abominations running around terrorizing the station are created in experiments that HE oversees. A charming psychopath is still a psychopath.

To me, he doesn't deserve any mercy, but the question is whether the intelligence he could provide outweighs the benefits of a loyal and grateful Aria.

True, Aria will far outlive The General. And once the War is over (assuming Destroy ending lets you live) you could be a King on omega. (Queen & King with Aria?)

Also his voice actor is phenomenal.

I considered him the actual DLC and it didn't turn out well for'em OP.. Aria is boorish, but did learn stuff from her girl friend.. in the end. That's a good thing I spose. Why Shep would want to get on her good side is a strange twist of fate for fortune. I suspect in the longest run, the Alliance would end up doing the same thing as Cerberus and take over Omega, in any event. Aria is just too 'bossy'...

edit: I went all renegade on Oleg. boom..end of line.

A man who experiments on others and turns them into Adjutants unapologetically isn't honorable in the slightest. **** him and all his Cerberus lackeys. I hope his death was painful.

ME:Invasion says he wasn't responsible for creating the Adjutants, and the videos appear to indicate that they tried to get the existing ones under control. That said, Omega muddies the picture somewhat so it's now open to either interpretation - intentionally, I'm sure, so that we can justify both letting him live and getting him killed.

He wanted to control them as troops and create more using Omegas civilians once the process had been perfected. He's what people would call a monster even if he has a code. I did let him live to help sell out information on Cerberus. Savign the Galaxy and other people seemed more important than Oleg himself.

But, you know, im crazy about the saving people part! If that's my job then that's what im supposed to be doing and thinking about. It is imo Shepards duty, anything else would be petty and selfcentered

This, he maybe merciful to those who surrender but he still staged a coup and took over omega, and set those adjutants on the civilians he doesnt deserve mercy, couldn't care one way of having Aria's loyalty, that man didnt deserve to live. 
Brooks got it in the back, the cerberus coup on the citadel's informant was killed even though they could have useful intel so he is treated no differently.

I didnt want Aria to fall to his level & he was good intel, so I convinced her to let him go. But when he started back talking, I blasted the b@$******. He was on a very thin wire and it snapped.

Deserve? Does that matter?

Deserve or not, accepting his surrender both ensures the end of the occupation rather than risk an order for his men to fight to the death, and provides potentially valuable intel on Cerberus.

[Daiyus]

I was going to let him live, but he was bad enough I wanted to rough him up first. I convinced Aria to leave him, but then blew his head myself with the Renegade interrupt. C'est la vie.

Nah, he just kept goading and liking it too much.. he was pretty much used up anyways. The computers probably has the info needed to satisfy the spy guys in the Alliance anyways..so off with his head!

But in my playthrough( only one..blech) Aria didn't actually strangle him, she let up on her own..bummed about her girlfriends dedication to the 'little people' in/on omega? I didn't have to intervene at all, she just stopped choking him on her own? Walked away. I wasn't gonna shoot him either till he starts in with the groveling with how important he was to me'n others for what ever....sooo, oh well.

(I think it was more fan rage than in story stuff.. )

[JackShepard]

He (possibly) had intel needed to win the war. Killing him (at that point in time) does not help the war effort. If he doesn't give the alliance intel or tries to fool us with bad intel, then he goes straight back to Aria for a slow and painful death. Shepard Justice, baby.

I haven't played this DLC, yet.
But do you have the option to kill Oleg yourself as Shepard and not allow Aria to rape the man?

If so, I'd take that route.

Yes.

So satisfying.

True, Omega is a Resource Gem Mine. I'm sure Admiral Hackett would have no problem putting a hit out on Aria and putting another lower ranked Admiral in control of Omega.

However the Alliance wouldn't create Adjutants.

[snakeboy86]

In most I let him live, in one of my femshep saves I blew his head off

[GeneralMoskvin_2.0]

I let him live.

Did the Entente kill the German and Austrian emperorors after WWI? Did the Allies kill all German Generals after WWII? (Well, they did partially.).

I wish Shepard would have treated him better though. A diplomatical "Welcome to the good side, General" or so would have been much appreciated from my side.

Omega doesn't exactly take place *after* the war. Your analogy is also bad because there were trials held in the real world.

After the war for Omega it surely does.

And the thing after WWII is bad. I agree, dumb from my side.

Still, Emperor Wilhelm II. of Germany and Karl I. were exiled, and that was it. Speaking of Petrovsky, a brilliant mind like him, shaped by his experiences with the Turian war machine, somewhat make me feel sad for him. :/

[nani7788]

I always let Aria kill him.

[phillip100]

He deserved mercy. I'm not going to kill him when he just surrendered.

I spare him, but I sort of mentally replace him with his comic version.
