Its difficult to really grasp how powerful this species is.

[@bigbangrafa8435]

They challenged the cycle, believing that they were above It, and became a victim of It like any other lesser race. The cycle in Mass Effect seems to be an universal constant that can only be brokne by synthesis, at least that's what is implied. Let's be honest, If there was another way, Harbinger would have found It at this point, there are thousands of Reapers in ME3 and apparently each one is the product of a 10,000 year cycle, we are talking about MILLIONS of years.

@@lavrentii-kolotushkin Why do you think that ? Not trying to stir an argument, just curious.

[@lavrentii-kolotushkin]

​@@W4rr4X Basic logic. It's being said that there were thousaunds of cycles with an average interval of 50 thousand years. So we're talking about recolonizing the same planets for over and over again (thousands of times though). Do you remember Feros from ME1? The way prothean city looked? That's correct, 50000 years is a pretty short timing for all of those civilization ruins to erase, so they will remain still, now imagine those civilizations stacking on each other for a hundreds and hundreds times on most planets. With these intervals all planets will turn into Feros-like (completely occupated by previous civilization remains) and it will happen in 1-2 cycles, not to mention insane counts like 1000 like it's in the game lore (lol). If that's not enough - remember planets' resourses like coal, oil, element zero etc: they all take hundreds of millions years to refill while can be drained in a single cycle so the galaxy would've been resource empty after 1 or 2 cycle (again, we're talking about hundreds of them happening here). It's just a huge logic hole which can't be solved

[@lavrentii-kolotushkin]

@Kisa Vorobianinov Yeah, tell me they also refill all the planet resources

[@tidan4575]

I think what people don't understand is that the Reaper's were designed as a failsafe against Galactic extinction: galactic extinction being caused by either organics creating rouge AI or machine intelligence that wanted to destroy all organic life, or a rouge organic society that grew too powerful and corrupt and threatened the lives of other organic worlds (the Leviathans unfortunately fitting into the latter category according to the catalyst(and it was probably right)). The reapers were designed to prevent that possibility from manifesting itself until they found another solution that wouldn't result in them harvesting advanced organic races. The catalyst and reapers succeed in their purpose regardless on weather or not you succeed in firing the crucible. In fact that's probably why they didn't give it their all to stop Shepard's cycle from firing the crucible, and even allowed an indoctrinated Illusive Man to bring Shepard back from the dead. Their original plan was to collect Shepard's essence to gather data like they always had and have his essence be the dominating mind of the human reaper they were building. But Liara was far more resourceful and determined then they realized and they decided to let her have Shepard rather then risk losing his genetic material. Both EDI and the Illusive Man mentioned that the reapers weren't trying their hardest to stop Shepard and the cycle. Just merely pushing his/her limits. But they also weren't just going to let them win either. If they wanted freedom from the harvest, they would have to earn it by paying in blood as they realized war is the only way organics learn or act on anything. I still choose to destroy the reapers in the end, because the dead from the previous cycles need to be put to rest. And we have to set a point that no matter how noble the cause maybe, the wages of sin is death. Nor is it ideal to make peace with an enemy that has too much blood on its hands that needs to be paid one way or the other. Perhaps in the next conflict when there's different factions that want to use the crucible again to destroy or control all synthetic life for unjustifiable reasons, is when the galaxy will finally be ready to accept synthesis and blur the line between life and machine completely.

In my mind the Synthesis ending is the one and only true ending. Completing the reapers mission to find an answer to preserve life, all life, silicon and carbon based, to end conflicts.

So Harbinger is actually a dead leviathan with cybernetics. Basically leviathan husk. And all reapers are connected to Catalyst. Thats why even a reaper dies its connection to Catalyst contunies.

Maybe they never actually let him escape... and instead kept him there shaking on the floor writhing from visions of victory and loss no one else can see but him.

Maybe I’m reaching but something was touched on here. What was shepherd. The leviathan stated the galaxy was an experiment evolution it’s tool. Shepherd was more than an anomaly more than some hero. maybe shepherd was evolutions answer to the reaper’s themselves.

It was dlc during the original run of Mass Effect, but became a part of the game when the Legendary edition came out.

[@vexile1239]
