Atleast his response was somewhat original. I don't think I've seen him use that response before.
Usually it's "that's just silly" or "this is stupid".

Here's an example. The bulk of ME 3 is uniting the galaxy. Could that have gone towards conventional victory? Absolutely. Did it marginalize Shepard? Not in the slightest.
No, clearly, a hypothetical conventional victory would not necessitate marginalizing Shepard.

What are you talking about?
"Complete nonsense" is his most famous quote.

Shepard blows up the citadel and thst is what drops the reapers sheilds. They retreat while taking heavy casualties. Also lose their transmission signal booster for indoctrination, losing control of the husks who drop limp and mindless to the ground.
How's that? Shepard dying or not can be whateves meter based.

How many times has this come up, Dreamgazer? I've given you answers. Funny how every time I post them you tend to vanish. Everything up the endings is more or less the same premise of uniting the galaxy, except more forces in general, several victories resulting in dead Reapers, removal of the Reaper's ability to indoctrinate, tweaks to the Battle of the Citadel, an overall of the galactic defenses while still giving them little narrative impact.
Wait, so you destroy the galaxy's fleet in ME1? Then who can stand up to the Reapers when they arrive?David7204 wrote...
I made an entire thread based on answering that first question. You can find it on my profile. I think you'll find the detail satisfying. 'Alternate Plot for ME 2' or something like that.
As for the second, far more geth. A lot more. I think I'd like the very powerful Citadel fleets holding against the very powerful geth until Sovereign comes in and turns the tide. A lot more casualties and destruction - the Citadel utterly kicked in the teeth and the fleets along with it. But the crucial part is Sovereign defeated at full strength by the Alliance and weakened Citadel fleets without any 'overload' nonsense. That part, I'm not sure about.

They have two years to rebuild. The harder they're hit at the end of ME 1, the more plausible motivation they have to strengthen their defenses.
And that sounds horrible.

No Dreamgazer. You see, firstly, unlike everyone else, I don't weaken the Reapers from what we see in ME 3. They're still just as powerful, and just as numerous. They can be taken out with significant firepower, but not much else.
Secondly, unlike everyone else, the changes I make to the galaxy aren't magic wands. Yes, I would ideally love to introduce stronger fleets, more shipyards, planetary scale shielding, and more forces in general. On a reasonable level. But you see, instead of those improvements being a pointless magic wand that nullifies the entire story, they would very intentionally have almost no narrative impact. ME 3 would proceed with the Reapers succeed just as much as they do currently.

Two years isn't that much time to rebuild even 1/4 of a fleet, let alone a more powerful fleet to stand up to the reapers. Let alone the high cost of building so many ships, weapons, armor, and getting more recruits to replace those who died in the citadle battle.
