Mass Effect final analysis

So, yesterday Extnded Cut became available, I downloaded it to my Xbox360 at about 14.00 in Moscow.
What did we expect from him? After the release of the original final, the players had many questions: “What happened later, after the choice of Shepard? What happened to Normandy in the orbit of the Earth? How she ended up in a warp leap at the time of the “explosion” of the mountain?”. All the answers were supposed to get players along with extended Cut

A small retreat … I am a wild fan of the universe. I personally read all 4 books, read all the comics, went through all 3 games with one character =). What were my senses when 3 part came out? Yes, very simple: I bought the game on the day of exit, installed, imported the sail, passed to the end on 1 breath. What did I see at the end? Yes, in fact, nothing.
And so, the expansion of the finale came out

So, let’s look at all the moments that were incomprehensible and to which we received long -awaited answers

We get a pretty good answer to this. Shepard, in an in -event jogging for a ray, simply does not want to sacrifice his friend (I was Garrus) and his beloved “woman” (Liara), so he calls Nomandia and asks Joker to take them from the battlefield. Okay, 1 answer we received.

Once-workers did not puzzle over this moment. Hakkete is said that someone still managed to get to the citadel.

Everything is clear here, got out of a crack in the citadel, which we later see. The ghost, apparently, appeared from there

There is nothing abstruse here. A couple of millions of years before the events of the game, there was an unknown Rasa, who, during his life, realized that he was rolling into UG, that the synthetics they created completely drank them, took and came up with “artificial intelligence” (that very guy), which was supposed to come up with a solution for the whole situation as a whole.And he invented (Glados nervously smokes on the sidelines with his poisoning gas). The guy took and created from all this civilization the first reaper. Then he concluded that it is necessary to cut out developed races that pose a threat to everyone else

Shepard makes a choice and microto rouge-casino.co.uk … That is, the mountain begins to produce energy, at this moment not only Normandy begins to dump away

The analysis of each ending under the spoiler will be presented below. Don’t know the details, don’t read.

The ghost was right. Reapers can really be controlled. Shepard can merge with them and become in the place of the boy. In the epilogue, now Vyspecd says that he remembers his former life and will never get stories with the invasion of the Reapers in order to “cleanse” the galaxy. The citadel closes, the relayers are destroyed. Later we are shown how reapers, under the control of Vist Shepard, are building relayers again, restore all the planets destroyed by a guy. Everyone is happy … khepy yend. Nobody forgot about Shepard and Devid Anderson and their memory is perpetuated in the center of the memorial plaque on Normandy

The pinnacle of evolution … It was this path that wanted to choose a catalyst, but he did not succeed in several cycles. Shepard jumps into the beam of the mountain and dissolves. According to the catalyst, a new DNA should be created. Synthetics adopt everything in organics, and organics are all in synthetics. It turns out that everyone thinks the same, everyone has the same knowledge, all the condenses have common goals – to develop together, without wars, Konylikt and T.D. Reapers again help to “repair” everything that they once destroyed. All races receive general knowledge (all that the reapers have been in charge throughout all cycles became accessible to all russes. Everyone is happy, new technologies appear, everyone lives in peace (they ride a pony and poop butterflies)). I chose this particular ending option. The victim of one, for the good of the others, this saga should end

Everything is the same as it was before Eksteded. If the combat readiness of the troops is low, the earth dies, it was high, only clean organics are cut off, Shepard’s body is still lying in fragments, the ships are whole, the technologies are not affected. But the guy says that soon the races will create synthetics again, and the “ass” will begin first. Reapers die, each races separately begins to restore its homes. Shepard’s fate is really unknown. We are again shown a “sigh in the wreckage” and a black screen. Shepard did not develop the topic of salvation of Shepard … but a pity

And so we got to a very interesting option. BioWare added a new ending option – refusal.
Apparently, Shepard was very much hit by the floor and it dawned on him that the mountains are not needed, that the fleet will cope with the reapers and “I better die a free person than help you,” Shepard says to the boy, and he with a grin and words “let it be like that” leaves. The cycle continues.
Later, we see an empty edge and lighthouse (like protean lighthouses) and the camera descends into the base of this lighthouse, where we see a small room where Liara’s records are reproduced (yes, the very record that she writes with us in Normandy in the middle of the game). She reports that despite all efforts, to build a mountain and resistance, nothing came of them. The mountain did not work, the cycle continued. “I hope that our knowledge will help you withstand the invasion”. The record ends. The story with the proteans repeated.

What impressions have remained? Eksteded satisfied me. The point in the trilogy is set (except for the sigh of Shepard. It was necessary to cut out this moment at all). Thanks to the developers that at least they released the final (and they could even say they say, suck your foot, the finale is satisfied).

What I would like to say on the topic “Theory of stupefying”? I suggest you present a situation when something happened in your life … for example … your cat ran away from home. You are a child (or maybe no longer), very emotionally transfer the loss. At heart, you are aware that he will not return. The cat probably already died and you will never see the creature that you loved, looked after, and followed. But the human brain is so arranged that in any situation I want to hope for the best. In your head, you believe that the cat is alive, happy, will return home very soon. It’s something like the protection of your brain from brutal reality (we will not argue here, everyone in life had something similar).

The same thing happened. Remember, like they played in the first part. With what pleasure it happened. Then the release of the second part and everything became 10 cooler, more epic, more tragic. 3 part of the franchise comes out. All fans save saves with their Shepard to send him on the last journey. And what they got at the end? Tons of incomprehensible information. Unknown choice … that he entailed? How the Sobility developed then? What was heard with the galaxy?

Here is my analogue with a cat. It is not known what actually happened and the brain of the players begins to act. He begins to grab the smallest grains of information in order to pull himself out of despondency. People began to grab on the Takievs who were not visible to anyone at all until that moment. They say correctly: “A person sees only what he wants to see”

The theories of stupefying went. Yes, the fact of the possibility of impacts on the mind of other creatures is confirmed by both books and games. Well, this does not mean that they controlled everyone.

In Extended Cut, all that we attributed to the theory of stupefaction is explained from the simple side, without any troubles and extra “higher meaning”. Therefore, now the story in stupefy can be thrown into the archive and never return to it again

As for the body in the concrete of the red version of the end … it seems clear here. After the destruction of the mountain, everything explodes and Shepard’s body lies in the wreckage of the citadel

So far, that’s it! Personal opinion – the best ending – synthesis.
Canonical (which will be used to continue the series and the entire universe) – refusal.
