I kind of want to know how

Spoiler:

all of my armor just neatly fell off, leaving the uniform underneath totally intact.

I'd have liked it better if you just had banged up armor instead, but I understand that they couldn't do that with all of the armor options in the game.

Yeah but I was wearing Blood Dragon.

Well that's your own fault.

Customizable armor is the best, because it looks the best.

A note regarding the ending

Spoiler:

according to the strategy guide, to get the final persuade option on the illusive man, you have to have used one in every conversation you had with him up to that point.

Don't tell that to Olivaw.

Actually, do that. It's funny when he rants about it.

at this point, just after rannoch

I don't even care if the ending is good or bad

there are so many beautiful moments in this game, and in this series, and so many great characters....well, I can't say that everything would be ruined by one small portion of it

I feel I've made this argument in defense of other things in the past, and I don't know that anyone in here has argued that the end ruins the series for them but...still

This is exactly what I said to myself until I got there

It, uh... I don't think it's necessarily ruined for me but goddamn it made me feel a lot more uncomfortable than I imagined it could.

There've been a few people.

I maintain that they're geese.

I seem to be in the minority however.

no spoilers, just feelings re: ending

Spoiler:

it's shocking, is what I think. it provokes a big backlash. after a day or two most people will come down from that frustration high and appreciate the rest of the game for the incredible work of art that it is, but in the short term, there is going to be a lot of angry pounding of keys

oh hey, post rannoch stuff

my mom's alive! and she's a rear admiral! hell yes

Spoiler:

Do they ever explain what was going on with the Dark Energy buildup in Haestrom's sun? I assumed that was going to be a major plot point in 3 but AFAIK it wasn't mentioned once.

Not that I know. I figured it was going to be a backup way for the Reapers to get here faster.

Spoiler:

now I'm sorting through the details of the ending

the citadel was conquered by the reapers and everyone on it killed offscreen

Spoiler:

As I understand it, the original plan for the plot was that there is a buildup of dark energy that, if not resolved, would eventually overtake everything in the galaxy. The reapers apparently were harvesting new species in order to bring new minds into their fold in their search for a solution. Human ingenuity (or genetic diversity, whatever) made humans an ideal candidate, which is why they were making a human reaper.

Apparently that all got scrapped in the end. There was a post about it somewhere, but I forget where I saw it.

Spoiler:

From what I read, it was originally intended to be the main plotline for the reaper threat, that somehow the reaper cycle was tied in to that. Not sure why they scrapped the idea.

I sure hope you're right, considering the rest of the game is a tour de force, regardless of what you think of the ending.

Anyway finished my insanity playthrough just now

and now I got all the achievements except 5000 kills and 100% galactic readiness

Speed Racer

yeah the game is goddamn incredible

It's tragic that it has to end on such a sour note because everything from Palaven up until the last 5-10 minutes is pitch-perfect

how the fuck have you already beaten the game twice

Zay

Spring break, and now it's over


plus the second playthrough is a LOT faster, I did it in about 12 hours

and that's with all war assets, including Citadel side shit, could have been even faster if I ignored that stuff
