@@yol_n There wasn't much to think about at the time. The Krogan were at the verge of taking over the galaxy. Its a classic them-or-us scenario.

I love the bravado of the turian officer in the first clip, when in fact after the First Contact War ended, the turians were (maybe not publically, but still) VERY impressed with the performance of the humans against them, especially given the relative inferiority of their equipment against the turians; they said that it was the first actually decent fight (and one that they had to exert any *actual* effort in) that the Turian Hierarchy had had since the Krogan Rebellions had ended over a millennium (in the ME timeframe) ago. It's also why the rest of the Citadel races are so scared of Humanity; despite having only *3%* of their entire population enlisted in the military at any one time (whereas ALL turians, EVERY SINGLE ONE, either have or actively ARE serving)-- they still managed to give the turians hell (and the Council races are terrified of what might happen if Humanity is provoked enough to mobilize in VERY large numbers). And despite their military being relatively small compared to the militaries of the *OTHER* Council races, the Systems Alliance has more than been able to hold its own against other, larger, more established armed forces (specifically, the Batarian Hegemony)-- this is largely considered to be so due to the Alliance's emphasis on maneuver warfare, flexibility in combat (human officers are given MUCH more latitude to act on their own initiative in combat, in stark contrast to, say, the turians), and development and usage of new and novel technologies and tactics, such as VI and drone support, and fighting by striking at key elements of an enemy, rather than trying to grind them down by sheer attrition (an Alliance Commander will use every trick in the book to win, and if none of those work, they'll throw the book out and invent new ones...which usually get added to aforementioned book later)-- especially the last one; as an example, before the Alliance showed up, not one Council race, NOT ONE, not even the militarism personified *turians*, had EVER even come up with the remotest concept of a dedicated space fighter carrier; as soon as they saw the humans using one, they couldn't move to copy the concept fast enough-- as of ME, carriers are an integral part of ALL Council fleets.

@LtCWest

Funny that you mention the carriers, I remember a codex entry stating that the human carrier developement was actually an attempt in circumventing the Dreadnought treaty that restricted the Alliance to just 6 active commissioned Dreadnoughts at a time (whereas the turians had 40 or something). It worked better then everyone expected. ^^

The quarian survivors were punished not only for inadvertently making the geth but for failing to do exactly what the Council did [successfully] to AI on the Citadel.

EDI/Legion are both conscious, self-aware beings (i.e. Alive). (continued. . .)

yeah, the companions made the game great, I loved the bond between garrus and shepard, liara's near blind loyalty to shepard, everything was brilliant with them each character was truly unique, maybe we didn't like some of them for our own reasons but that was what made it so great.

Its perfect to have a damaged shep, and overcome all of that.

SPECTRs only answer to the council and the council alone with no real command structure/chain of command. Don't feel bad, it is an easy detail to forget. That is probably the reason why the Salarian had in mind when he created SPECTRs. Keep it few, keep it small, answering to no other galactic law other than to the Council. And if one goes rogue, send another SPECTR agent to take the rogue down and out...if necessary.

Well, both Shepard and Kaidan aren't simple alliance officers anymore. Both of them are spectres , they don't respond to the alliance anymore. Also, I doubt that there are offical ranks in the spectres.

Would humanity stoop so low as you try to fight and bring down a sentient being simply because we would rather have them as a slave labor force? If so, maybe we deserve what is coming, as much as I hate to say it.

+Bender You're right on the 'quarian' part-- but its *solely* a quarian vessel; its a liveship; the largest vessel present in the Migrant Fleet, and one of the ones responsible for producing the bulk of the food the quarians eat, during their Fleet's travels.

DorianMichaelsIII A live ship doesn't look like that I'm afraid. If you look closely at the ship in this video you can see two human ships coming out the back. Also, the liveship does not have the smaller quarian ships stuck on it's sides. No, this ship is either something earlier, different, or someone at BioWare was having fun.

@Denny2669

The real question thoe is why it's there, and at that specific background. Is that what human live ships look like? Eitherway, it looks like they just reused models that are already in-game to create this new one, and it seems to be a good idea to save time, if they just didn't make it so obvious. Or maybe there's another reason? If it's not human, then it's quarian, but what do they have to do with Sheps background? I guess the laziness of BioWare is the best answer, but we shouldn't ignore other possibilities.

so they could record all these events but Shepard couldn't record his conversation with Sovereign or Harbinger? Or even the talk with Vigil?

Also, further explanation was given in the ME: Evolution comic where it shows that TIM had already gotten in contact with reaper tech before even becoming TIM

Is the Salarian at 2:12 voiced by Christopher Randolph? What is it about him and voicing characters that create destructive weapons?

The turian genophage one rubbed me so wrong. It was 1 guy as per usual "This is genocide" At least the turian who did it didnt justify it like mordin. He simply didnt care

"When we conquer your Earth." So about that.

Would the ark affect synthetic life?

How does the Turian understand the Human in the first archive footage? I mean, I know the ME universe has translators and stuff, but surely no Human would own one at this point and neither would these translators be able to translate english.

The Turians and Humans were at war for three months, the Turians must have accused some basic linguistics program, which wouldn't be classified, and then used they're VI's to translate for them in the translators, the translator would either translate the speech of both, or another one would be lend to the human in the interest of interrogation. On another subject, one thing that has always bothered me since mass effect 1 was Wrex's comment in the citadel, were he says he always wondered whether the Turians released the genophage on they're own or if the council secretly encouraged them, in order to keep they're hands clean, the recording about the genophage wasn't very clear about that.

I think it was the companions & the story of growing up with them that really made this series that amazing Sure the main story & the battles were alot of fun but if it was for the companions you made & befriend or even romanced it may not have been as breath taking & intriguing as it was

I didn't notice on my playthroughs that the Genophage was in the vault T101.

the first guy that is in the chair, who is it?

did the part of the krogan rebelians actually say it started in 700 c.e? exactly how many years happened before the genophage?

1:18 It's scary how every race in ME treated synthetic life with so much hatred. This was just murder.

How come a Quarian ship shows up behind Shepard?

Can you make english subtitles with annotation tool? I don't understand very well the audio.

It's funny how in the first archive the human calls the turian "bird". That's something I read only on the books, never heard in the game!

It's is the Arc. Oh no.

you mean that video archive? it's not that obvious if you think about it, that was the first recorded period of the rebellions. that doesn't automatically mean it started then. and don't forget there's a part of the archive where footage was unobtainable, that may have contained extra footage of the rebellion spanning back further. we don't have any from the rachni war if you're not too busy arguing to notice

Yeah they do, it was one of the first to come out it's called the Extended Cut DLC.

What armor is your Shepard wearing?

Part 4: Just to clarify, are you suggesting that you have to be human to have a soul (meaning that Garrus and Tali, for example, lack them)? Or are you suggesting that only human-LIKE (i.e. biological) entities have souls? If the former, then I fail to see what's so special about homo sapiens; if the latter, then I fail to see what's so special about meat. Would you say that the Hanar have souls? What about the Rachni? (continued. . .)

Fluffy, what are your PC specs if I may ask? I'm saving some money to get a good rig.

So the council really did accept that there was a reaper threat. but CHOSE TOO DO NOTHING to avoid galactic panic. Jesus christ how did I miss that.

2) also you might want to also explain how a big ship can disguise itself as a non reaper given there hasn't been any sort of evidence they exist at all

Was..that the Ark of The Covenant?

what gun are you using, i dont recognize it?

"You used civilians as bait" "Yes." "Congratulations. You're the first Spectre."

I dont understand the one at 3:33

Part 5: There's much more to being alive than flesh; it's the mind that really counts (not the brain, the MIND specifically). As long as any entity is conscious/self-aware, it's alive; it may not be life 'as we know it' but it's still, nonetheless, alive. Incidentally, I would strongly recommend watching the Star Trek episode “The Measure of a Man”; it's the one where a Federation court decides whether or not Data (an android) is legally alive, and, as such, is very relevant to this topic.

when did they do that?

i dont understand the earth one when there is no known date

I think he’s talking about Dead Space, not 100% sure cuz I only heard the Italian version
