Destorying the base is a act on emotion, not logic. I destoryed the base on my main Shepard and I admit, I went on emotion, not logic.

My point exactly

Yes, but Miranda would not act like that in a matter this important (see my post on the previous page for details).

Edit: I repeat a paragraph from the previous page because it seems it has been lost...:

@kraidy:
As before, I do not argue for or against keeping the base. There are reasons to destroy it and reasons to keep it I find valid. I argue against the statement that keeping the base is immoral because of what was done there. That lies in the past. It may be a distasteful procedure to dissect the base and extract its knowledge, but it is not immoral. I think Miranda would see it that way as well and not let her emotions cloud her judgment. Remember she does *not* say she doesn't trust TIM and wants to destroy the base because of that. She says "It seems like a betrayal." That is OOC.

Again we don't know what she is thinking, as I have said, there is pros and cons to keeping the base and destorying the base. However I do beleive that some input the characters give like Legion are so out of character because what he says is so out of character, Miri it can be seen as out of character, but not that much because I could see the reasoning for it.

Please read the inserted paragraph in my first post on this page on the matter again, kraidy. That explains why I consider it out of character.

What surprised me that she was actually critical of keeping the Collector base. I still think that's out-of-character.


Yes and I still strongly disagree Posted Image

But we will not know who is right until ME3.

I think Grunt and the Turian Councillor are going to also become a couple...then they will get together for a foursome.

My biggest problem with the decision is that all of your companions post game are unhappy with your choice for a valid decision. This is a group of people that does not agree on much but all support the paragon decision and condemn the renegade decision. Lame.

Ah ok, now I see why you think she is OOC. I do agree, I beleive she should have said I don't want this to happen to Oriana or challange TIM, but I see where your comnig from now. I don't take the input for the base serous anymore because it is OOC alot for many characters, I only take Miri with me so she can tell TIM off. I do talk to characters after the mission because what they say does fit there character.

I like the fact that Miranda doesn't give criminals a second chance. She just kills them. My main Shepard killed Fist, Rana, Chorban, merc on Thane's mission, elnora, krogan on mordin's loyalty, gunship repairman, and probably some other people who I can't think of right now. I see her doing the same thing.

We have already been around and around with this.  Keeping the base seems idiotically suicidal to me.  You disagree and claim exactly the opposite.

The lack of mind controlling space bases located besides black holes outside of fiction means bringing that point up in this conversation is hard for me to argue with.

Going around physically assaulting people and lashing out angrily all the time is: logical?

I don't think either can be pigeonholed.  Sometimes one response is more logical than the other depending on the circumstance.

You give too many chances. You should have blown her head off when you had the chance, then again I am the guy who killed chorban and my friend thought that was kind of cruel. In my view, he started a fight and I just finished it off.

If I may quote kraidy's post above:

Paragon= more on emotion and less on logic
Renegade= More on logic and less on emotion


While that isn't always correct, this case has parallels. What I'm actually against is making decisions based mainly on emotion in important matters like this. Read my relevant post - the first post on this page - for what I'm about here. I think Miranda, if she was arguing against keeping the base, would use a more rational argument than she does. That, rather than the fact that she argues against it, is out of character.

I do beleive miri should have brought up Oriana as a argument or edven challange TIM, the "it seems like a betreyal" is very poor and OOC.

Ah gotcha so if she had used the argument that the base was far too dangerous to logically be kept around as her reason for destroying the base...or used the argument that we needed the base to find a weakness of the Reapers...that would have been in character.  The fact her reasoning seems be based on a hunch or a feeling is out of character to you.

I can get with that I suppose.  The latter is more of the sort of "reasoning" my Shep uses.
