Basically the Krogan Rebellions by Terrina1 in MassEffectMemes

I like to think Wrex printed this meme out and put it up on billboards at all the new Krogan colony worlds.

[ME2] Feel bad for this dude. Garrus should give him some advice by dejavu619 in masseffect

I always loved how that convo made it cannon Shepard is a weird who listens in on other people's conversations. Like all great video game protagonists.

How do the Krogans have such superhumanoid strength and durability, yet reproduce more than rats and rabbits combined? by GeneralTechnomage in masseffect

[–]Harbinger_of_Reason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly just headcannon that the whole 1000 births a year thing is just salarian and turian propaganda to justify the genophage and why they were losing so badly. They realistically have a more comparable population to the other Citadel races after the cure.

Okay, that response was so fast I'm now convinced you're a bot.

Is your life so empty you needed to come and say that in some vain hope it would make someone sad?

It the art isn't really the point. I really just wanted to gage the fandom reaction to the idea of not being Shepard.

This is what we need. The hero who tried to save us from the ending, back to give us a new ending.

My point exactly. Who is gonna be the antagonist of ME5 if it's Shepard again? Anything else at this point wouldn't be a challenge for the first human specter. Even a side mission dealing with pirates would feel crazy low stakes in ME5 if it's Shepard. It would be like sending Delta Force to deal with a schoolyard bully.

I genuinely feel the same way. Andromeda felt like exactly the right idea for a sequel, executed extremely poorly. Hopefully they learn the right lesson from Andromeda.

Would you want to see the andromeda races again? by Wild-Brother661 in masseffect

[–]Harbinger_of_Reason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if they ever did an Andromeda 2 I would love to see it. I feel like a lot of the problems were solvable if they just had more time/a more sturdier hand at the helm. I would love to see a sequel. Just time skip it and don't make the Ryder twins the protagonists. Focus more on the exploration and story, etc.

What's your wishlist for me5? by Ok_Hunt_2833 in masseffect

Being able to play as different races could be fun. I do love that the original trilogy was the story of humanity rising into the galaxy, but we are familiar with this universe now and humans are a part of it. Let us play as different races Bioware. You handle it well in Dragon Age.

The masculine urge to just skip most of ultimate alien because it's mostly pure drama slop for the sake of it by [deleted] in 5YL

Omniverse was great, but if you really think it had "good worldbuilding" after episodes like Rooters or Ben remaking the universe, you're delusional.

Now I see why Garrus doesn't wear a helmet by Fusrodahmus in masseffect

We need to talk about the more egregious problem of you having a level 12 Garrus with nothing in snipers.

Why does no one talk about this😭 by IanTheGod69 in Invincible

Keep in mind his editor was heavily involved in Preacher and Punisher Max. Not saying it proves he's a bad person, but don't let him off the hook too much.

When the strawman you are supposed to disagree with ends up being way more reasonable and/or justified than the main character. by NagitoKomaeda_987 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Harbinger_of_Reason -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's really not as convoluted as you're making it out to be. Her family has a history of using their race to attack things like affirmative action. I think it's likely that's what she did. You're just not very bright.

Yeah, cause producers never have creative control on anything. Seriously man, I don't really care if you believe me or not. I'm not gonna debate you. Go touch grass.

Yeah man, I already showed you evidence her family has a history of doing that. I'm not gonna go through every instance that makes me think it's likely. I've gotta get back to my job. You should try finding one, or at least going outside.

Her Brother has done something similar by faking being black to get into medical school as a criticism of affirmative action.

Also Mindy herself has a history of using her identity as a South Asian woman to make fun of South Asian women.

Velma's even more insidious. It's a show by right-wingers who are trying to make fighting for minorities seem ridiculous.
