Ah, you're right, that was when they first learned about humans. You're right, most kids would be fascinated. Hell, everyone would be...just imagine if we actually learned about aliens. Unlikely within our lifetimes though, if ever. Kind of sad.

*peeks back in*
If there are aliens I imagine we'll eventually contact them. If we don't kill ouselves off before then.

The universe is incredibly vast. It's hard to imagine seeing anything other than primitive life in other solar systems. So far as galaxies go, as far as we know we'd either need a monumental amount of energy to go there or it's not possible.

"They're so strange...squishy, and that clunky waist...and what is that weird stuff on their heads?!?  Gahh, weird!!"

Oh, I know. I half-think we'll have nuked each other into oblivion before it happens anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if there is intelligent life somewhere. I just don't see any reason why they would be any more advanced than us. I figure if there is intelligent life we won't contact it for at least a couple hundred years if not millenia.

I do like the Mass Effect explanation for why intelligent life elsewhere hasn't contacted us. Our mass relay is encased in ice and deactivated. You can't enter a door that's locked.

It's probably for the best. Imagine if the salarians did the same thing to us as they did to the Krogan. On the other hand, I can totally see Roman Legionaries fighting Rachni.

Sure you can.  You just need a big hammer/chainsaw/battering ram.

Mass Effect just got way too much like Warhammer in my mind.
Buuuuuuut, tricked out Celts and Romans would be awesome!

To be fair, that movie has rhinos in it. It's less than historically accurate.

[Kotori Ky]

.....300? Accurate? In ANY fashion? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA.....HAHAHAHAHAH...haha...ha...



no



Okay, I've had enough alcohol to feel fuzzy. Time to do Garrus' recruitment mission on Insanity.

Don't worry about it, most people don't know much about history.

Count me as one of them.  I'm a total history ******.  For some reason, American history bores me to tears--I'm an American so I kinda feel guilty, but eh, forget it I just don't care.
Turian history, now....

it's not a big deal, I'm American too and I dislike more modern history. I'm big on ancient, medievel and early modern history though.

[Collider]

I'm like pyro, I like ancient and medieval history better. Just more interesting. Not that I'm completely clueless as to modern history, or American history.

[kglaser]

It's just that American history is so...new, ya know? Now Chinese history, Egyptian history, dating back thousands of years...that I find cool, for some reason.

Prothean history? I'd be all over that! What was their culture like, in-depth?

Turian history? Anyone? Bueller?:/

I think Garrus was already a little boy by the time the First Contact War came around. He was probably that annoying little kid that would never stop asking about the new aliens. What am I saying, he was probably adorable.

Wait. Didn't the First Contact War end 30 years prior to ME1? So Garrus and Shepard weren't even born then.

Me too, I just prefer older stuff.

The problem is that we don't know Garrus' age. Or do we...?
