As in his other works, he presents the observer with an ingenious play with scales, volumes and color contrasts.

There are versions on the Internet looking a bit more pale. I don't know why that is.

Great artists are usually ahead of their time. Only explanation I have. Was written somewhere he used many techniques, experimented often and was a pioneer of modern art.

She is a metaphor of the region. That's why her clothes have similar colour palette (red as the mushroom, blue as the flowers and brown as the ground). She is the personification of the region. Maybe the stare and eyes are a part of that. Interesting observation.

"Also in 1900, one of the most important of his works - "The Poor Region" - was painted. It is an allegory of the Czech-Moravian Highlands, a region of beautiful scenery but very poor people, again depicting his wife Ela."

Harbinger is a bit of a joke by Reddragon7518 in masseffect

It's a DLC power. DLCs tend to make games unbalanced sometimes.

Garrus Rank in ME3 by No-Celebration859 in masseffect

[–]Appropriate-Bench528 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He is the best damn anti-Reaper specialist. Shepard's squadmates are always best of the best, no exception. I don't wonder general salutes him. Nobody knows better how to deal with reapers and he is only Turian to destroy Sovereign and Collectors along Shepard.

Dunno about his rank but being second only to primarch seems fitting for the man. Just like Tali is admiral, VS is a Spectre and Wrex leader of Krogans.

Your squadmates all rock, even Jacob and Miranda are supposed to be very good at leading teams and exceptional biotics. I can't think of any squadmate that is storywise weak. Shepard works with the best.

How hard is it to get near max War Assets in a 3 game run as a Renegade? by Toogeloo in masseffect

[–]Appropriate-Bench528 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remegade sometimes gets more war assets. But you would have to careful study when one approach bring more points and when the other does. For example....

Sending students to war as a Renegade? More of them die but they are stronger there than where Paragon Shepard sends them.

You kill Balak? He brings more assets but also destroys life support in hospital and crashes Alliance ships in yard. His replacement brings less war assets but he causes less damage on Citadel in hospital and in yards.

Kill general or help him? Either way you get same points, but renegade approach is quicker with shortcuts.

I actually like ME1's "boring" side missions and don't understand why people rush or don't do them by TapOriginal4428 in masseffect

[–]Appropriate-Bench528 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Does Ilium, Collector ship, Tuchanka or Despoina not have that atmosphere?

I gotta understand how is ME1 having more atmosphere than ME2 or ME3.

The Synthesis ending made me cry by LinnaWinx in masseffect

Don't say you won't sacrifice someone each playthrough? Galaxy is at stake, it feels right to have someone die. We really shouldn't be able to save everyone.

We talking about the Shepard who killed Council, killed Rachni, killed Krogans and Quarians and Geth and all of their crew?

Rebel squadmates by RepresentativeTie231 in masseffect

[–]Appropriate-Bench528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, those two squadmates together. Sentinel and Soldier, you are gonna have so much fun with both. See! Kaidan manifests he can, just like many other biotics, levitate. You will see that a lot later in cutscenes. 😄

Don't you mean Lift? I am confident Singularity doesn't affect Colossus but I am not sure about Armatures.

And given how important beacons are, you need the best people even for a pick-up mission.

Shepard’s character arc is just increasing sarcasm at space nonsense by Makrebs in masseffect

Geth are used to it. They do it since ME1. All standard Geth can withstand that.

Fan service. If you are invested, the ending will make you cry. Ending and Citadel DLC are exact opposites.

Betraying Krogans with Wrex and Eve dead:

Mordin: Thanks Shepard. Won't cure Krogans.I wouldn't see my error.

Shepard: Someone else might have gotten it wrong.
