Mass Effect 3 The View of Palaven extended

[@TheArtofUTube]

See that big spot of orange on Palavan? That's where Garrus lived. Shows you how much the Reapers feared Garrus. They hit that part of the planet the hardest trying to kill the one Turian capable of calibrating guns capable of destroying Reapers.

Yeah, the ending could have been better. Doesn't stop ME3 from being one of the best games ever. The multiplayer alone was one of the best things to happen to video games.

[@TheReaper569]

[@Theo2077Nikolov]

We all do

[@liondevelops]

Was wild when people played through the entire awesomeness of the campaign just to get to an extremely disappointing ending then say the ENTIRE GAME is trash. Like no, lets be reasonable.

[@lalas3590]

Turians were the only army that actually made me think that there was some progress on fighting the reapers, these guys are the Rambos of the reaper war.

[@nathangordon4891]

La Las Turians are the chuck norris of the mass effect universe

[@watchinginaz]

La Las Especially when they teamed up with the Krogan.

[@RahmpageChicken]

The Turians sustained massive casualties during the fight for Palaven.

[@02091992able]

Well think real life US Navy mixed with the massive armies of the Chinese and Russians slammed together into one fighting force that is pretty much what the Turians where they had the largest military and navy in the galaxy. But they do end up having to make a choice stay and fight for Palaven or help escort the Crucible near the end of the game.

[@Kai-tn4yx]

@@02091992able But by that time they have already liberated Palaven if you get the help from the Krogans.

[@EarthGainX]

Knowing Earth and Kar'shan fell so quick to the Reapers and the Turians refusing to go down without a fight to protect Palaven is so godamn cool. This theme speaks for that, it's awesome.

[@admiralspire8867]

+Zwei R Earth didn't fell at all. It's planetary defenses and ships did, but guerrillas fighters and civilians took arms in hope of at least saving what could be. Humans fought and resisted as much, if not more, than Turian. Let me tell you that when this happen, Palaven is in pretty much the same case as earth during the harvest; no ships, no support, no reinforcement.. But hundred of millions of turians taking rifles and fighting, not only for their survival, but for the whole universe survival as well.

[@glorilol9546]

+Zwei R actually the alliance wasn't defeated mass effect is one of the few franchise who didn't make the humans weak...

[@panzerrjcb]

+William Bailey No offense mate but millions of turians or humans with weapons do nothing against reapers. How can you destroy a 2km long starship with small arm?? I love the game but the fall of Earth and Palaven are unrealistic to me. During the time that Shepard wanders around in the galaxy the reapers had enough time to completely vaporize the planets and kill everything to 100%, even plants and bacteria. They destroyed missile silos and Earths fleet. In the game codex the main gun of a reaper has 3 times the force than a atomic bomb. So how come Earth wasn,t turned to a fiery ball after the first 3 days of the conflict?

[@lordandsaviour5666]

Well, the main gun seems to be very focused, unlike an atomic bomb (which explodes) which would make it much slower considering the size of what they had to destroy.

[@10Tabris01]

THe human military doctrin of attacking enemy supply lines, while brilliant agains a conventional foe (like the Turians in the First-Contact-War) is usless against the Reapers. The Turian military on the other hand is primed to stand and fight, which is comparatively a better thing to do against them, even if in the long run it wont help

[@nicolaj990]

The Turian Military aren't known galaxy-wide as badasses for nothing.

[@smiglo112]

I'm just waiting for one of them to stumble upon Warhammer 40K and start claiming that the Flood can beat Tyranids or the Chaos.

[@ReveredDead]

We should have had more missions like Manae. I felt like there was a whole lot of reapers in this game. Some of them were boss battles sure but nothing like a bunch of reapers destroying everything around you as you try to accomplish your mission. I felt like there was too much Cerberus in this game and not enough Reapers.

[@adriacastellvi5183]

Don't forget the Geth in Rannoch. I'm Happy with the Cerberus intrusions because they always hit in critical moments and they are always intruding in your plans,but maybe more Reapers would have be welcomed. Like Menae or some open battlefield

[@N7wxboy]

I always wanted a hazard version of the multiplayer map "London" where a nearby reaper would shoot at the surrounding areas of the map and stomp closer as the game progressed. To the point where it was almost on top of the map, just blaring its horn away.

[@Hoppa456]

Black Onyx Menae was a meme

[@Pheonixfirestar]

Black Onyx you do realize that reapers were controlling Cerberus right?

[@Darkstar263]

I played through the game again recently and finished it a couple of days ago. I agree there were way too many battles with Cerberus and not enough Reapers. Sure people will say that the Cerberus troops were indoctrinated but that doesn't really count. I'm talking about the Reaper forces such as Husks, Cannibals, Marauders etc There weren't many missions involving them. I counted- Earth (Start of game) - Menae- Tuchanka- Cyone (The reactor mission)- Thessia- Horizon- Leviathan DLC- LondonThose are the only ones I can recall. The rest of the game involves Cerberus and a portion of the game involves fighting the Geth.

[@ZachValkyrie]

This piece perfectly sums up the entire reaper war. It sounds completely hopeless, but you continue to fight because if you stop, everyone will die. I particularly liked its reprise at the beginning of the assault on Chronos Station.

[@admiralspire8867]

+ZachValkyrie In fact, there was a lightly shining light of hope during the whole Reaper War. And that is what saved the galaxy. Sheppard.

[@weiserthanyou2052]

You're spent, you can't keep fighting, there's nothing left to fight with, but you keep fighting, you have to keep fighting, because there's still something to fight for and if you don't fight for it day and night the Reapers will destroy it forever.

[@HundredJono]

There was so much potential with this mission. I wish there were more missions like how there was on Tuchanka and Rannoch. That would have been awesome. Also I wish there was cutscenes of the Turians and Krogans working together on Palaven fighting the Reapers that would have been cool to see.

[@MrRiddleAW]

I've said this before and I say it again. They should have made Mass Effect 3 into two games, so they could cover more stuff and details. Palaven was glossed over too quickly.

[@Brakiros]

MrRiddleAW It was cut because EA was greedy and rushed the game so they had to rush it and make it the moon instead of Palaven

[@thedreamcapture2681]

evidence?

[@biswajitnath804]

HundredJono they left it to our wild imagination

[@MEUAR]

@@MrRiddleAW OH SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT. Two games of that would have been so powerful! Not to mention the hype potential Bioware could have crammed between the two, preparing us for a final act of legendary proportions!

"Are you kidding? I'm right behind you!" Easily THE BEST MOMENT of Mass Effect 3. Molossus Universe version (further adding to the Batman/Garrus parallell). My fave track by a far FAR margin. EDIT: Holy shit; I've just realized that it's a variation on ME1's Virmire Ride (aka Mako Music) track! Hence the awesomeness.

[@360firedevil]

wish we could have step foot on Palaven

[@pu5ccc]

Don't loose hope and remember what the famous Alliance explorer Jon Grissom said about Palaven: "The only thing on this planet that isn't silver are the turians. It's all too clear they're made of steel." And in one of those ME4 screenshots Bioware released a month ago, there's some soil and rocks matching the description =D

[@jorvach9874]

"Much of the turian fleet is still operable, and the citizenry is heavily armed. The turians refuse to be intimidated."

[@gr8m887]

The Reapers really tried to deliver the 1,2,3 knockout punch right out the gate, didn't they? First the Batarians, then Earth, and then Turians. The three largest and most well organized and coordinated militaries in the galaxy. It really shows how the Reapers have been doing this for MILLENIA.

[@smitabhmoitra5726]

Eh, the batarians went down first because they were just in the way. Their section of the galaxy was right in the reapers' path towards Earth and Palaven. Their real plan was to come after humans and turians first, then the krogans, followed by the asari. It of course makes sense. First, the two strongest militaries, then the most physically imposing combatants and then the wisest/most knowledgeable people. This all happened while a reaper was left on Rannoch so they gained control over the geth, who are no pushovers either.

[@Razgriz_01]

One of the things I liked in ME3 is how they showed the size and magnificence of the reapers, shame about their purpose though, at first they felt like gods or beings from another dimension, now they are just a pawn.

[@TheStarcraftJACKAL]

...and when that Reaper walked over Shepard on Thessia and GRAPHICALLY THROUGH buildings, I got sick of see them towering over us doing nothing than background stuff.

[@Brakiros]

[@bilalk85]

4:55 - 5:14, someone should edit and extend this epic beat!! :D

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

Actually the Turians built networks of Mass Effect generators under the surface to make the gravity on it more powerful, that's what keeps the atmosphere on it. The actual method is a secret though, as Turians don't allow other races onto Menae, (until y'know, Reapers started burning it.) It's also a ridiculously cool idea for colonising our own moon.

[@nzeldan]

Funny that you mention that cuz I also expected to have a mission on Palaven. And we get a mission on all the other homeworlds.
