    Preloading apparently grants easy access to all the game's cinematics

    so, uh, spoilers are going to be really heavy the next few days

    Ugh. This thread will be the only Mass Effect-related space on the net I trust.

    They... can not be... stopped. They can... not... be stopped!

    Why do people like Garrus

    xmassig2.gif
  • Kuribo's ShoeKuribo's Shoe Kuribo's Stocking North PoleRegistered User regular
    Because he's always felt like a wishy washy tool who wants to be like Shepard but isn't good enough to be

    I wish Nihlus from the first game was on your team. That guy had his shit together.

    What does he do when he leaves the Normandy

    Gets a team of guys together to dispense justice throughout the galaxy

    And then gets them all killed

    And then almost gets killed himself until Shepard gets him out of yet another jam.

  • biggitiobiggitio Registered User regular
    Shepard is Space Jesus. I don't think it's fair to use him getting someone out of a jam against them.

  • Kuribo's ShoeKuribo's Shoe Kuribo's Stocking North PoleRegistered User regular
    I mean if you like him that's fine

    I just wish he were dead instead of grunt or legion

    Mordin's a toss up, really

    Nihlus got shot in the face. I'm not saying Garrus did awesome, but he did better than getting shot in the face. And it seems like Garrus' whole deal is not being Shepard but wanting to be and how you choose to deal with that. Lots of people dig on that interaction.

    because if zaeed died offscreen everyone'd be all HAHA HE'S GONNA KILL YOU LATERS ;0

    Garrus got shot in the face, with a missile, and survived. Nihlus took one to the back of the head and died.

    So... Garrus > Nihlus.

    Nihlus was accepted into the Spectres. Garrus was rejected. Twice.

    Nihlus > Garrus.

    I made sure he died onscreen for my latest run.

    You think what I did during your loyalty mission was mercy?

    I was just making sure you survived long enough to be my team's Collector meat-shield.

    That does not make Nihlus better than Garrus

    the council is made up of morons, who would trust them to identify the better turian?

  • MeldingMelding Registered User regular
    The first time Garrus said no because he dad didn't like Spectres.

    They were alive literally until Shepard woke up. Shepard 's hero energy killed all of them.

    Nihlus is pretty bad ass though. He Batman'ed Samara

    Yeah, and the second time was because of how the Council went about things after Shepard's death at the beginning of ME2.

  • MeldingMelding Registered User regular
    Nihlus is the Boba Fett of Mass Effect.

    Has very little screen time, is set up to be cool and then dies, but everyone likes him for some reason.

    don't you be talking mess about mordin, son

    I don't have anything against Mordin, but

    A. The genophage is bullshit. That is an atrocity on fucking sentient beings, you do not get to do that.

    B. The singing was funny once. ONCE.

    can anyone give me infiltrator advice?

    I don't have anything other than human female. Right now I have full cloak and full Alliance training, and two in sticky grenade and three in cryo blast and two in fitness.

    Which one should I pump up? Cryo blast or sticky grenade?

    Also it seemed like fitness would be a waste since I should be trying to not get hit.

    and I'm sorry I don't have fucking Jedi powers and knew exactly who to pick for the suicide mission the first time guys

    you know what else is an atrocity on sentient beings

    dropping an asteroid on a colony
    which the krogan did
    three times
    before the turians put them in their place with the genophage

    And yeah Nihlus got shot by Saren, a trusted comrade.

    I would love to play Alternate Universe Mass Effect, where you travel around with Nihlus doing Spectre dirt

    that guy was cool

    was this before or after the turians taught them how to do that

    oh wait I guess it would have to be after
