Unless you leave her be, in which case she simply becomes an underling for Aria.

My Shepard's paragon aura healed her troubled soul tbh

I think the viewpoint changed when the Reapers were coming, and the only way to challenge them would be the Krogan. I agree with his OOC-ness, but all that mattered to me was when he said he would help with taking earth back.

 

It just felt nice that helping him in ME1 and having him return the help to Shepard in ME3 was a really nice moment.

Lol, I used to make her change her ways, but the whole social worker thing just seemed a bit unnatural to her character, so now I decided I'd just leave her alone.

To the OP. It's probably a result of the general black and white shift the entire arc went through. There was no way a likable character could be anything but supportive of the genophage cure.

ME3 is full of "out of character" characters. Ashley, Legion, Kirrahe, Wrex, TIM, and several others

Hah, don't get me started about Wrex. Seems like his IQ dropped 50 points between ME2 and ME3.

Is that right?

 

And how is that?

He lacks self control and common sense. In ME1 he was trigger happy and impulsive, but overall reasonable (Virmire is arguable, but he's easy to persuade). I find his behavior on Surkesh irksome and unjustified. You don't trust the salarians, we get it, but there's no reason to deliberately provoke them in a diplomatic mission. You don't like the turians, we get that too, but there's no need to insult the turian Primarch for no reason just before asking support for the genophage cure. There's little left of his old dry cynical wit.

Wrex's behavior on Sur'Kesh was just good old-fashioned krogan hot air.

I honestly thought they were going to shoot him after he used his biotics on the salarians

That would have been something.

 

Shep jumps out of the shuttle yelling, "Wrex, cut it out! We don't want an incid-"

*BLAM*

 

Later...

 

"Im sorry, primarch. The krogan won't be coming to help you. They're already at war."

Anyway, I like Wrex, even in ME3, and I'm happy he's got a fairly big role, don't get me wrong. He's one of my favourite characters. I just liked him a bit better in ME1-2.

I'll grant you Sur'kesh, because that's a reckless move to make on the salarian homeworld with nothing but you and a shuttle with Shepard and team, but in the case of getting support for the genophage cure, I can understand his position. The turians were the ones who inflicted them with the genophage. Regardless of the reasons why, to have them turn around and ask for their support when they stand to gain little in return other than a slow crawl to near or total extinction as a result of warfare + genetically-induced population control kind of makes for a pretty crappy proposition. When Wrex calls the Primarch a coward, again, I can understand his position, though I understand the Primarch's as well, since it is preferable to simply have the bomb be disarmed and left to rot than it is to possibly provoke the krogan prematurely. Had Cerberus not interfered, they probably would have been able to get in, disarm it and get out with none the wiser, at least long enough for the war to play out.

From what I understand the bomb had never even been armed in the first place until Cerberus found and tampered with it.

Thanks for the correction. You have to love how technology in the MEU can just sit around for thousands of years and be as intact as the day they were made. I wish my iPod lasted that long.

... and, like the Conduit, remarkably stay functional juuuuuuuuuust long enough for a dramatic countdown in the plot.

Reminds me of Fallout, how cars haven't completely rusted away and pre-war clothing and money are still widely used centuries after the bombs fell.

I always assumed that the geth were trying to disable the Conduit or something.

It should be pretty obvious the bomb was intended to be there for the long term. And since you don't seem to know much about technology, let me assure you a bomb is a relatively simple machine and thus easy to ruggedize.

If you stopped to think for a bit, which you apparently didn't, it should be pretty obvious the bomb was intended to be there for the long term. And since you don't seem to know much about technology, let me assure you a bomb is a relatively simple machine and thus easy to ruggedize.

Why not change your name to Bob insults again?

You do know that modern nuclear weapons do have to be maintained regularly for them to work even over the course of just a few decades, right? This thing has been sitting in the ground since the rebellions, which would put it a bit over the thousand year mark. No nuclear weapon in existence can last that long with no maintenance and still work. But when I say technology, I mean technology in the MEU in general, some of which still operate after 50 thousand years. No device that we know of is capable of lasting that long IRL, at least not yet.

You're going to glorify 'sadism' in your signature and then be upset at me for having little paitence for obnoxious and poorly thought out insults?

 

Obnoxious and poorly thought out insults from a person who literally just said to me in another thread 'There's too much negativity on this forum'?

What does my signature have to do with you insulting people?

Oh, come on, Dave. We've been doing it for you since... whenever your first incarnation was created.

that is why I prefer the Indoctrination Theory a great deal
