I'm a Paragon to the core.


Speaking of Paragons, and speaking of Anderson, I suspect Paragons like Anderson and Renegades dislike him.

Doesn't apply to me. I'm a renegon and I can't say I dislike Anderson.

My renegon engineer feels the same.

Have you ever tried "zipping" while disoriented?  It's harder than it looks.

Anderson is cleearly pro-Alliance.

But "alignment"-wise, paragon or renegade, he seems to reflect whatever Shep believes.  He always backs your choice and trusts Shepard.

When we shoot TIM things just really go off in multiple directions star kid doesn't help correct it he compounds the situation and control and synthesis blow it all up.

Renegon =/= renegade. You would be indifferent.


Although, to be fair, you don't have to agree with someone to like them as a person. I like plenty of people who's views are wildly, wildly disparate from mine. However, in a video game I suspect it's a bit more one-dimensional.

I don't see how renegade players would just dislike Anderson when he isn't that paragon himself

And they've been doing this extermination thing for a very, very long time. 

You're creating this exceedingly contrived middle-ground of disorientation to fuel a power fantasy. 

[Iakus]

How is it contrived? It's not much different than the technology the quarian a ended up using against the geth.

[Br3admax]

How is the quarians developing technology against their own creations comparable to the Reapers in anyway or form?

Well there's this big complicated blueprint in the Mars archive which no one knows what it's supposed to do...

Pretty much. Depends on your motivations. Anderson is an old-fashioned military man - honor, principles and all that jazz

[Br3admax]

And you somehow want it to have an awesome button that helps you kill the Reapers but not things weaker than them. Seems a little contrived for the player to me.

Except it wouldn't kill Reapers

And it's still less contrived than shooting a pipe to activate a galactic Synthetic Off Switch

or "organic energy"

He would be atleast Paragade imo

Anything that is strong enough to disable a Reaper should destroy just about anything else based off of their technology, whcih every single thing is. It's a lot more contrieved

Synthesis is ridiculous, but it's also not the topic at-hand here.

And no, I think your "drug 'em up just enough to curb-stomp 'em in a way so we still feel like badasses" scenario is more contrived.  100%, Indiscriminate Overload Beam > that.

I'm kind of "meh" on Anderson, and the bolded part is why. He's a nice guy, but that's really all he is. Yawn.

The final mission in itself is quite weak but got to be when the space kid appears.

Then the ending is discriminating against me and showing you favor. I file aggrieved status that is discrimination and discrimination is wrong the ending discriminates injustice injustice! Bigot ending!

Well, that's the thing about "contrived".... it's more a feeling than an objective concept. Anything that takes ME away from inflicting the horrible psychic damage that the game as written gave iakus won't feel contrived to him. Conversely , something that takes the game towards silly illusions of badassery will feel contrived to you and me because it's contrivance in the service of something we don't like in the first place.

Pretty much as soon as I saw the Starkid. "Crappy anime nonsensical end plot twists? In my Mass Effect?!"

Edit: Then again, Human Reaper...
