Thane is so right about Kai Leng needing to be embarrassed. He either misses the councilor by a terminally ill Drell or a Salaran Captain, and also instead of actually assassinating the councilor he decides to just jump down infront of him/her.

For me its Legion and Mordin. I'm trying to get a copy of mass effect 3 I'm not looking forward to saying goodbye. I don't care that they'll be there next playthrough, ready for me to meet again. Legion sacrificed himself, to me that makes him a person. And he sacrificed himself so that the Geth would have personhood, and freedom. If you pick the destroy ending, you have to nullify that because killing the reapers, the best ending, would kill Legion, Edi and all the Geth. But matters of the Geth and Edi are both some of the most disturbing to most people because it makes you question what constitutes a "person" in society. To me, at the very end, the Geth collectively died as people, finally at peace with and recognized as people by their creators. Not only that, but they forgave the quarians who tried to kill them for 300 years and started building things for them, including the medical infrastructure needed to restore their damaged immune systems. that to me is the definition of forgiveness. the Geth must have the patience of a saint, and the mercy of one too, dropping war with their creators so suddenly. And all it took was a collective act of faith and a dedicated mediator who wouldn't give up.

@scotthadden98164 жыл бұрын
It's not that simple for a few reasons. a) Rakhana, the Drell homeworld, is now a desolate desert, devoid of the resources capable of sustaining life. The Hanar were only able to rescue about 650,000 of them. They're far and away the smallest species in the galaxy. Thus, most medical companies wouldn't see the point in making tech like that b) Rakhana's air is so devoid of moisture, few, if any, settled worlds exist where they wouldn't need to wear them permanently, and as part of the agreement made for saving them, many drell work as indentured servants, many, like Thane, were trained to be assassins, and wearing any kind of tech as an assassin, especially to offset a medical condition, is more likely than not, going to get you caught and killed. and c) Kepral's Syndrome stems and grows just from contraction, once you have it, there's no getting rid of it, many Drell actually caught the condition on the evacuation craft, because it was designed for Hanar, and it was these cases which actually uncovered the condition to begin with.

Not going to lie here but the Mass Effect trilogy is the best imersive game I've ever played. Every character is unique and the creaters gave them great depth and back stories. Every character is special and every death is heartfelt. The compelling story, dynamic characters, brilliant fighting mechanics and with the choice based play system so your decisions reflect on how the game progresses is amazing. I went with the MaleShep and the Tali love story. Loved every minute of this amazing saga.
