They might not be all that super-evil or whatnot. I mean they appear to be some kind of AI built on the essence of organic species that have lived throughout millions of years in the galaxy. They just pop in every 50k or so years, see if there are any worthy races to be elevated to their status and join their community and annihilate everything that they deem a waste of organic time/something that'll peter out and die anyway.
Then they let everything restart.
Yeah, I'm going to have to disagree.
Bioware as a team always have a super evil. And considering that full on fucking Terminator at the end of ME2? I'm going to just call it for "Reapers are evil."

How is that not evil. That's like saying Hitler just wanted to get rid of the degenerates that were holding back society and create the appropriate racial hierarchy, its not like he was evil. What exactly constitutes evil if mass casual genocide doesn't count?

ShuttlePC has a coupon code, good for 100 uses, for a free X350 (normally $400). It goes active on the 26th. Guess who's website is already down from heavy traffic. I've been refreshing the thing for an hour, at first I could just get the TLD, now it's coming back as "cannot find server".

From all the Turian lore in ME1 and ME2, the Turians seem to basically be The Roman Empire IN SPAAAACE.
If anything, outside the aesthetics they're more the British Empire, IN SPACE.
(the humans are America)
The humans are always America.
It'd be great if once the humans would be Scandinavian.
The galaxy would fear our fearsome mix of cold detachment and depression.
Everything would be running at optimum efficiency though, it'd be fantastic.
Maybe you guys should make some decent video games if you want to cast yourselves as the heroes...
I mean, I'd play it as long as it was translated into English.
Problem with that is I really don't think any Scandinavian devs would make a space exploration/adventure type game.
Because of the afformentioned depression. The underlying cultural feel to Sweden is basically "strive to achieve your best, then settle down and be happy" there's very little of that "woooooooo let's be reckless and do something possibly stupid" thing that America tends to embody.

But they are millions of years old and embody the soul and spirits of ancient dead races (probably killed by the Reapers) and probably just have a different perspective on how shit is and should be run.
I mean, any of the living races in the galaxy now are basically tiny annoying flies to the Reapers. They are older than any of the races are, and far more powerful.

I think the reason why I can't play ME2 is because Wrex is autodead if you start the game without a save.
Do you have it for the PC? There's a website with a database of uploaded saves if you did. Hundreds. You can play any character you like. And looks are reconfigurable anyway, so you can choose from the saves based solely on important decisions.
Also ATTENTION PEOPLE, WATCH OUT THEY DONT NEED PLANES ANYMORE

There were some top tier voice actors in Fable 3. John Cleese, Simon Peg, Stephen Fry. And they actually used them. I'm always reminded of Fallout 3. Let's cast Liam Neeson and then give him like 2 dozen lines and have him vanish for the first half of the game.
I haven't met the character played by Stephen Fry in Fable III yet, but
I loved him in Fable II.
They make really good use of his character in the second part of the game, especially if you go good.

Yes. I grasp that there are people who use female on male violence as an excuse to bash feminism. I've met those people face to face. But attempting to minimize female on male violence is the wrong response.

Seriously, You guys, Hitman is pretty awesome. Especially Hitman 4 and 3. Never played 1, and for some reason those were the only three made, they skipped one. There's a new one on the way and it's going to be great, maybe.

Thom, how many times do we have to tell you this; sexism is OK as long as it's directed at men.

yes, but I don't remember what for
none of the other games I want to play are working at the moment, and I don't have much better to do
That is awful and sexist.

oh dear.
I suppose humanity is the god-race that is obviously omniscient enough to judge true good and evil?
Incredibly old news: http://flyingsnake.org/
what are we supposed to do, let them kill us or absorb us or whatever their plan is?
Evil is an invented concept, so....
Are you guys roleplaying?
so they are recalling their past lives as sky dragons.
we'll have to begin the purge.
Fine then, how about this HEAT DEATH RAY:

Thom, how many times do we have to tell you this; sexism is OK as long as it's directed at men.
Well, yeah I know. It's just I think the Reapers might not be entirely as evil as we're made to believe following ME1 as displayed in ME2.
But, no, I definitely don't think we should lie back and let the Reapers murder us all etc.
