To quote Blizzard's Queen of Blades: 'The end comes. And when it finds me, I shall embrace it... at last.'

I think that is Shepard's mentality by the end of the war.

oh well that one sounds good too, but i had this one in mind (harry potter influence probably since i loved that little story about the 3 brothers) and seemed kind of fitting since shepard had been evading death for a long time...

Yes, I suppose. I was actually sort of hoping for Shepard - if cards and dialogue were played right - to say a similar line. Maybe something about meeting death as an old friend.

Maybe something like this?

????: But you're running head long into death!
Shepard: Then I'll greet him with open arms and apologise for not staying with him the last time.

I don't know, but I get subtle (or not so subtle) Death Seeker vibes from him in the last chapters of the story. And a little before that too.

oooh..I like that i coul see him saying something in the line of that... Yeah thats the bioware trip -.- Dragon Age had the same thing when the warden was saying farewell , you could just tell he/she would die or not..when you would do the ritual with morrigan (i dont know if you played the game or not?so ill just write it out) which would in the end save the warden's life, all your companions say things that arent so gloomy and your choices arent that gloomy too..But when you dont do the ritual, and the warden is GOING to die at the end, everyone is like you are at your death bed... ME had that similar wibe trough the entire game and i just knew how it was going to end -.- even though i dont accept the end and i ve read theories about it and i accept the indoctrination end. Period

I accept Synthesis to a point and the indoctrination theory.

Yes, I've played and finished DA and 2... 2 was such a waste of potential... -.-

yeah i know! da2 had such potential ;c i loved the fact the warden was voiced and the combat was nice too but the story...egh.. Yeah i guess synthesis would be allright if the ends are really the ends.but if indoctrination is true then syntesis/control are wrong choices entirely. Since then they take control of shepard (and which some pointed out, when you get those endings before he 'dies' he kind of looks like a husk?)

I always thought that it was revealing just how synthetic he truly was after Cerberus got their indoctrinated hands on him...

Synthesis is theoritically sound, but I wouldn't take it unless there was a third party offering it. Not the Catalsyt/Reapers or Cerberus, but maybe the option was hidden in the Cruicible Data or something like that.

I don't trust that space-child-AI thing... if anyone else offered it and had a near positive guarentee of sucess, I would take it.

DeadlyNinja In reply to Lostoverlord [2012-03-22 21:23:44 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, he's somewhat of a combined lifeform?which wou ld explain synthesis but yeah, if someone else had offered it, as a way around the two endings then i would accept it, like screw you reapers i aint taking your deals..but This..I dont know, the child is yeah, untrustworthy

No, it's just that he accepts defeat so readily. I don't trust that. He'd be trying to barter or bargain for his existance. Even an 'Omnipetent' AI would have a self-preservation function.

DeadlyNinja In reply to Lostoverlord [2012-03-23 00:18:32 +0000 UTC]

yeah my thoughts exactly! which supports the indoctrination theory since when you are 'dreaming' you dont question your 'reality'... while in normal time shepard would question everything the AI would say and try to figure a conclusion on his own not pick something an AI told him =s

Normally I don't bother correcting spelling, but I think you mean "reckoning" not "reconing". But this image is too badass to have any flaws!
