[QUOTE=marcus;35181422]So [sp]if organic life always creates synthetic life that then destroys the creators and goes rampant, why has no extra-galactic synthetics entered our galaxy and ravaged it? Or are there reapers and space children reaping organics for every galaxy?[/sp][/QUOTE]
The Reapers reap amongs all galaxies. What they call "dark space" is essentially everything beyond our galaxy.

The Reapers destroy synthetics too.
They haven't destroyed the Geth since they see them as valuable tools, more malleable than the Keepers after they were stopped from receiving Reaper signals.
Not spoiler tagging since this is revealed in ME1/ME2.

You're just assuming Reapers destroy synthetics. Find me proof that they openly destroy/attack synthetics.
Besides, we've already proved that Mass Effect 3 rapes the Reapers in the ass with the ending currently.

They either destroy synthetics from others cycles or they control them and make them Reapers. Otherwise we would have seen synthetics from cycles before our own.

I have to laugh.[sp]The Reapers purpose is to "save" organics from their own synthetics. But throughout the trilogy, the Reapers use the Geth as tools to kill organics.[/sp]Biggest fucking hypocrites in the universe.
Did Mac even know what he was writing? Something tells me he just went let his fingers think for him and never bothered to look over what he wrote.
Saw the Brutes execution move for the first time today. Some Krogan who had already been executed 3 times trying to melee Banshees got picked up by Brute and slammed into the ground.

[QUOTE=Zeos;35181323]I've been listening to the Mass Effect 2 soundtrack for a while, I kinda miss the beat that was in many of the songs, such as Suicide Mission, as it is one of the first things you hear when booting up the game, those, I don't know, synthesized hand drums? Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?[/QUOTE]I felt that Mass Effect 2 focused too much on generic orchestral music, for the most part. I abso-fucking-lutely love the Suicide Mission soundtrack, even more so than M4 Part 2 in regards to credits, and a few other tracks (Geth missions, Samara/Kasumi missions, some collector stuff, and Overlord/Shadow Broker), but on a whole, a lot of the music washed over me and left no lasting opinion.
Mass Effect 1's soundtrack, on the other hand, works with it's sound effects and visual style to really create this awesome cohesive aesthetic. It all has this kind of raw and mysterious feel to it (simple and floaty beeps for music and sounds, and BLOOOM and great skyboxes for visuals) that makes my favorite artistic design for a game yet. And Mass Effect 3, I feel, captures that and evolves it, as well, while ME2 felt a little less consistent.

it's explained that they [sp]Kill the advanced organics so that less advanced organics may continue. The alternative was let the synthetics kill off all organics and have the universe stagnate.[/sp]

It's bullshit the the Reapers have 2 types who can insta-kill you even if you have full shields/barriers. Phantoms at least have to take them down before they gut you.
[QUOTE=thisguy123;35181747]it's explained that they [sp]Kill the advanced organics so that less advanced organics may continue. The alternative was let the synthetics kill off all organics and have the universe stagnate.[/sp][/QUOTE]
Yeah but that's just retarded anyway because it's all assumptions of the future. Did all the cycle had a synthetic race? Probably not.
And even now, there is law against making Synthetic life in the council. The Quarians lost their embassies because of that fiasko. The only other mechs we meet in the series that aren't Geth are the little mechs in ME2.
They could've made the cycle over 100 000 years too, why 50 000 years? It doesn't add up at all.
The only real synthetic threat in the Mass Effect universe are the Geth and the Reapers.
[sp]
The Reapers tells that synthetic will always kill all organics bullshit. So the Geth will kill all organics? But the Geth in the end either die out entirely or makes peace with the Quarians. So the only real synthetic threat in the galaxy are the Reapers.
In fact, they should make so the Reapers are a failsafe that can be activated at any time if there is a major threat to the entire galaxy. They shouldn't activate themselves every 50 000 years, but more like anytime a synthetic life form threats all organic life.[/sp]

I find it hard to imagine in just 50,000 years the reapers could reap organic life from every other galaxy in the universe. It takes long enough just to reap ours.

No I mean civilizations from outside our galaxy. So synthetics created in andromeda for instance coming here. Which would require reapers for andromeda's organic life to prevent their spread

As a Battlestar Galactica fan I definitely know what you're talking about, fuck yeah drums. But I agree with the poster above me, ME2 soundtrack didn't really leave any sort of impression on me apart from a handful of tracks.
[QUOTE=Dominicus;35181457]The Reapers reap amongs all galaxies. What they call "dark space" is essentially everything beyond our galaxy.[/QUOTE]
Where the fuck did you pull this from? Dark space means the void between galaxies, dark because there's practically zero stars there. There has been literally zero indication that anyone in the ME universe has capability for intergalactic travel.
[QUOTE=Dominicus;35181457]

No, dark space is the space between galaxies. It's "dark space" because there are no stars or planets there. It would take the Reapers 2.6 million years to reach Andromeda (the nearest galaxy not counting dwarf galaxies orbiting the milky way) travelling at lightspeed. There's no way they could go there, do some reaping and be back in time for the 50,000 year deadline.
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;35181939]...There has been literally zero indication that anyone in the ME universe has capability for intergalactic travel.[/QUOTE]
But if there is no limit on organic development and therefore the synthetics they create in other galaxies, there could be armies out there with that capability. But yeah I guess that's another plot hole lol

In my head it kind of makes sense.
It's supposed to be a flawed system, heck even [sp]the catalyst himself says "it's not working anymore." [/sp]
I guess the idea is that it's stuck in it's own sense of bloody mindedness and the assumption that it is right an incorruptible.
Heck one could argue it's funny that [sp]A synthetic has determined that we'd better make sure that no synthetics go crazy and destroy the universe. It's a kind of irony in a way that represents something deep and metaphisical[/sp] or I'm just reading too deep into it.

Wow, I just had the stupidest fucking glitch ruin a multiplayer match. All of my guns stopped firing projectiles (pull the trigger and it still "shoots" just no projectile), I couldn't resupply ammo for any weapon using the ammo crates and using the replenish ammo supply bonus didn't work either.
Lame!

The "everything beyond our galaxy" was a bit too far stretched. I didn't mean to say it applied to all galaxies and whatnot beyond our own.
Why does almost everyone assume that Casey meant they wouldn't remake the ending, since he also said this.

So where do we go from here? Throughout the next year, we will support Mass Effect 3 by working on new content. And we’ll keep listening, because your insights and constructive feedback will help determine what that content should be. This is not the last you’ll hear of Commander Shepard.
