Most Quarians would hate to see the A.I. From the book, some Quarians joined the Initiative because they actually like A.I and want to study it even with SAM help. But most of them still hold to their own tradition hating any form of A.I. the Quarian Pathfinder was choosen because he is the most sceptikal towards A.I.. The Quarian Pathfinder team also refuses to implant chips into their head and just installed secure links from their SAM into their outer layers of their suits. So even if the SAm take over controll, it cannot harm the Quarians.

Thank you very much for this, Fluffy.. this.. seemed like it was meant to be a much bigger impact than it actually landed with.

After speaking with her I immediately regretted my decision, she is mean and homicidal, and after watching videos like this with her on the Hyperion (where she's downright creepy) I believe that it's always best to just put her out of her misery.

[@HighlandStudio91]

Perhaps I am just being impatient(as I have only had this game for about a week)...but the Architect(flying worm)...segment in Voeld is driving me bat-shit. I've upgraded my skills & weapons as much as possible...but despite this, I only managed to take out one of the Architect's legs...before I got decimated. What really fries my brain, is that I am playing on the Narrative setting.

@@IBaitman Thanks for the tips...but I gave up on this(as this segment of the game took all of the fun out of it for me.) You have a gift for this level of difficulty, but I am not the zen master at it as you are. I'm done with Mass Effect(in fact, I am not even interested in the Legendary Edition.) I recently scored Elite Dangerous(Horizons)...for $7.49 and it's killer! Unlike Mass Effect...in Elite, you can fly a ship in real time & light speed and actually fly into the atmosphere of a planet(the realism is very impressive.) There is an enormous amount to learn in this game, so I don't have any time at all to play Mass Effect(even if I wanted to go back to it.)

I had bought EverSpace back in 2019...but never delved deep into it...but for the last few weeks, I've been completely immersed in it and it's so much fun(very challenging...but fair & it's more hands-on...rather than needing tutorials for Elite Dangerous and EversSpace is an even playing field....as the upgrades you acquire along the way, get you through the mounting difficulties of the game.) EverSpace isn't an open world, but the story is interesting, the graphics are top notch & it's just an amazing blend of arcade & rpg. Better yet...EverSpace 2 is open world(so I could not care less about Mass Effect, Elite Dangerous or No Man's Sky)...can't wait to score a PS5 & download EverSpace 2!

I keep the AI myself cause I feel it has a huge potential to be a cool quest line or some story element. I wounder why it lied so much and what it is hiding.

I chose to keep it on the Nexus and decided to check back multiple times after. No change in duologue :/ also if you keep it, it disappears from SAM node after the final mission. Considering what happens before starting the final mission it makes its gone... so the best option is either kill it or send it to the Angara.

[@theemperor3497]

I normally choose the option to kill the AI, but I wanted to know what happens if you allow it to live. Now I see that I made the right choice to kill it. After lying to me constantly, almost killing an angaran, and (if allowed to live) airlocking supplies and being threatening to the angara, it is best to kill her. Given what we have seen with the geth and Reapers, it is best to kill it to prevent something like that from happening again.

[@Timothy1395]

I killed the AI. I don't think a crazy AI is worth it. It might cause some AI war like the Geth did. Plus someone dying isn't worth it. I'm so glad I picked to kill it now.

[@witchskee]

I've got nothing against AI. In general, I love them! Love the geth, especially Legion (of course), adore EDI and SAM, and I would have been all for giving this AI a chance, too. Holding the angara hostage, though, was just too much. I JUST released that guy from slavery, and who knows how long he was there, and he BEGS you to save him bc he wants to see his family again. This Ancient AI literally wants you to kill it. It's "a life for a life" remark, to me, is her saying "kill me and this guy lives--it's what I want (death) and what this guy (angara) wants." So fine, since you're being difficult and homicidal, and you apparently WANT to die anyway, I'll grant your wish. I would make the same decision if it were two organics. So many people here seem to think that valuing synthetic life means valuing it over organic. I AM viewing this AI as a person--a person who had gone off the deep end and is holding someone hostage. Unfortunately, there's no obvious way to incapacitate the AI, which is something that could be done with an organic person, so shooting it is the only way to save that angara. But, if it were an organic, it would be more feasible to save both lives. Ugh. I want to save it just once and hand it over to Aya, but I just can't sacrifice that poor enslaved angara. He JUST got free and wants to go home.

[@ricardoalvarez231]

I would let her live. Many people fear AIs for a reason, as we saw with the Geth and Reapers, and fear that the cycle would repeat again. But this was inevitable, it was always about wills clashing against each other and not about organics against synthetics. Her freedom should be restricted as punishment for what she did, but not forever. I would take the risks involved with it for a chance to perhaps allow more AIs like SAM to be created. I look forward to seeing what they could do with this.

[@chunyinanimation]
