Neither Mordin's, Thane's, Anderson's or Legion's death moved me. What did move me was...

The impact of Anderson's scene really depends on how I played Shepard.
The "You did good child, I'm proud of you." means a lot more to my paragon Shep who lost her family on Mindoir than it does to my Renegade spacer Shep.

As for Thane I found the messages he sent you in the Citadel DLC more moving than his death scene.
In ME2 he didn't really socialize with anyone and Shepard was the only one he opened up to since his wife died.
Desperately trying to get in touch with his only friend in the universe and not getting any replies. Made him seem very lonely.

Mordin's death had me tearing up like a total b`tch, and Grunt's-almost-death, right after Mordin's, really had me going.

Mordin's death and Primarch Victus after he finds out his son is dead. Feels.

 the asari girl on Illium that sounds like she's ready to burst out in tears when her salarian stepfather talks about how he will die in a few years and hopes he will be remembered. That was in ME2 and another background conversation that felt more poignant than most of the game's deliberately moving moments.


Great minds, Rikk. That's exactly the same scene that got me too. I redid the entire conversation for my fiance to see, and he just went, ".. Wow. How did I miss that??" it was beautiful, haunting, and sad. Especially how the tone changed in the daughter.

delivering the final recordings of Charr to his wife and listening to her reaction as well as the poem. Now that was sad, there wasn't any overly dramatic music, dramatic cutscenes or whatever. It was just a farewell poem being delivered to a man's wife. Made me almost cry.

Did any of you share a similar experience?

I could appreciate what the devs were going for with Mordin, Thane, and Anderson, but more in an critical vein than the emotions. With Legion, I was too busy going "wait a minute, I thought you geth built your own path because you didn't want to use what the reapers offered" to be affected.

I did get sniffly when I realized all the geth were going to die even after they proved peaceful coexistence with organics was possible. Sorry, guys.

Thane's prayer and Mordin's singing moved me. Char moved me definitely for sure. Pretty much everything moved me, except legion disconnected - it felt kind lolzy and I didn't really realize that he died.

besides the scenes of the main characters, the conversation at the council with the human soldier trying to get her daughter shipped to tessia. After that mission I really hoped that she hadn't gone yet

TBH the only death I found to be truly moving was a betrayed Mordin. The crawling, the desperation... it all just punches you in the heart.Cure Mordin was good and all, but just not as moving. The other deaths were just frustrating or forgettable to me.

This.

Even though it happened off-screen, Jack's death was also sad in my opinion. She fought all her life to destroy Cerberus and because Shepard wasn't fast enough, she got captured and tortured upon by Cerberus for the second time in her life. It's even sadder if your Shepard romanced Jack as she dies by your hand.

The only thing I felt towards the primarch after the bomb mission was rage. Rage that a military general turned politician took all of basically 5 minutes to turn into another galactic weed and get his son killed and then tell me "it's alright".

No it's not you #$&*# $@#$ (!@#%!

My desire to punch him was magnitudes higher than with gerrel.

Ohhhhh... and since I've had a few patients with memory deficits, dementia, etc..

The old lady before the Citadel attack talking to the Asari in the Embassy area. I felt so sad listening to her confused, talking about her son. Going back and forth between some lucidity and lack of orientation with the situation. I mean, she knew what she wanted the entire time. But that poor Asari connected with her a bit before being pushed away again. It was sad knowing that from the tone of the conversation that her son was probably lost.

In his defense, he had to balance the possiblilty that telling the Krogan about the bomb would doom his whole planet vs the possibility that his son would end up in over his head. He hasn't spent a whole lotta time getting to know Wrex and would treat him with the same kind of caution as someone like Wreav.

His voice sounds incredibly weary and sad. I took it as he had to be strong right then and mourn later, privately, Turian duty before everything else and all that.

Yup, those background stuff can really give me feels... What really moved me was the PTSD Soldier...
And this possible scenerio of what may have happened... :crying: Such a depressing tale! I... I'm going to cry, now...
Oh, and there is a comic for Charr, as well... Hmm... Found it! D: Oh god!! I freaking love that comic thing!


I liked Charr, he's not afraid of being different. Yet, seeing as he did join the Krogan armed forces to fight against the Reapers he's also very much Krogan.

But Charr isn't the only Krogan whith sophistication or ideas, it's just that most Krogans supresses it to seem like tough brutes.. Like Grunt giving EDI cooking advice and telling her she could have used another set of spices possibly because What was her name was alergic to curry... Or perhaps it was just a preference that he had picked up from Gardener the cook and custodian on the SR2 during ME2... The spices he suggested were Human spices after all, maybe Grunt had aquired a taste for it after getting feed by a human during his first few months of being alive..

I can see it now, Grunt requisitioned food for his unit... They they complained that its not proper "KROGAN" food..
Grunt bashes their heads and tells them real Krogans can eat anything! Or are you saying it isn't Fancy enough for you princesses?!?
*The other Krogans then shut up feeling like they just sounded like a bunch of whiney Quarians.*


EDIT: I love that Charr comic myself Image IPB 


My first play through I completely missed the Char was the same dude from ME2 as I was just flying through the game racking up achievements.  When I realised who it was, I seriously got depressed for the poor dude.  That story was just sad.

People will call me crazy but I was whole heartedly moved by Legions death.

There was one time he didn't tell Shep the whole truth but he didn't know how Shep would react and I understand that. From what I remember all other times Legion was honest and loyal.

Then when he died....instead of acting like a machine out for himself as part of a program he gave himself up for the greater good. Then the scene where he lives on through "spirit" when the Geth Prime asks that Quarian woman if she had any preferences on places to start settling.

I thought that was awesome. After all those years of fighting....he gave himself up and there was peace between the 2 fighting sides.

The ambient conversations on the Citadel were nearly all good and it annoys me that we never got a MP DLC related to holding out on the Citadel. I wanted to save the people. My favorites were:
1) Turian soldier and his Wife as they were shipping out.
2) Nurses talking about the PTSD soldier
3) Girl that sold her car to buy the Salarian better armor
4) Teenager and the C-Sec Officer

Well you can't simultaneously believe the krogan deserve hope and the krogan deserve to die, can you?

That's a ridiculous argument - liking a character doesn't mean you therefore sanction all their opinions. I think Malcolm Tucker from The Thick of It is brilliant. That doesn't mean he's not vile. I don't have to be a sociopath to like Sherlock Holmes. I liked Team Rocket when I was a kid but I wasn't a thief.

Any "logic" that suggests have to be a krogan-hating imperialist to like Javik is beyond barmy.

That part was super sad because you don't realize who you delivered it too until it starts.  Catches you off guard.

I knew you were talking about this before I even clicked in. It is in my opinion one of the most raw, upsetting moments in the entire game, and this is for a total nothing character! Kinda funny, in a way.

Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, how about the Alliance soldier slated to be deployed soon who is trying to make arrangements for her Asari child to be sent to Thessia? Apparently the mother was an Asari commando and was already deployed to the front.

The kicker: The Asari receptionist ends up pulling all nighters and pulling a few favors to get the child sent to Thessia. Not long afterwards, Thessia is attacked and occupied by the Reapers.

For me, only Charr and Thane's deaths were really touching. Thane was more for the prayer than anything else.mThe memorial at Shepard's apartment is a nice touch as well.

Mmm, that was dreadful, absolutely crushing when the realisation hits. What also struck me about that area was the old woman enquiring about her son who's also deployed and in all likelihood K.I.A, and the other Asari clerk trying to be so patient with her.

That conversation together with the Turian who asks his asari wife and daughters to go to Sanctuary are among the worst background conversations on the Citadel for me, because I want to warn them every time I walk past, but the game just. won't. let me.
