Whellp, ME3 is out now. We get to see what-all Rhoenix got wrong!

Just finished my Paragon run. Many As One needs a few tweaks.

[rhoenix]

Well, thanks for playing while it lasted, everyone. I'm going to call the game here.

[rhoenix]

And, got shit together. Game is on. Havoc, we're waiting on you, since you wanted to talk to the large robot.

As far as events of ME3, here's how it ended: the Crucible did not offer hallucinations and bullshit choices - instead, activated all the mass relays at once, locking onto every known Reaper in the Milky Way galaxy, routed them all to the Andromeda galaxy, and then locked out the relays from Reaper use. The assumption is that the Reapers will eventually return, and the galaxy's forces have vowed to give them a warm welcome when they return.

- The Krogan Genophage was cured, and in the same way as the events in game ME3. After the War was over with, Clan Urdnot is the ruling Clan of Tuchanka, but there is now a Clan Council. Tuchanka now has an ambassador on the Galactic Council.

- The Quarians and the Geth made peace during the Reaper War. They now consider one another strong allies, and much headway has been made by both species both in terms of peace and relations with one another, as well as with the Galaxy at large. Legion gave his perspective and processes to form the core of the new Geth collective - though all Geth can still communicate with one another easily, they no longer need to for any reason other than communication and sharing of information. Both the Quarians and the Geth have ambassadors on the Galactic Council.

- Each species is still rebuilding. The Batarians notably are far less hostile toward the rest of the Galaxy, after the conversation with Balak and Shepard during the Reaper War. Batarians have not yet tried to have an ambassador join the Galactic council yet, but they have at least opened limited trade and tourism.

- The Mass Relays and the Citadel still exist, and are still usable - but this is the primary impetus behind building new mass relays on their own, separate network, and building Bastion. The old mass relays are planned to be all towed into the event horizons of black holes, or other inhospitable places once the new relay network is complete, all the better to make any remaining Reapers' lives more difficult. The Citadel is planned to eventually be dismantled for parts, but there remains the uncomfortable issue about what to do with the Keepers.


(EDIT: Game canon has been altered, following some in-depth conversations with Hotfoot and CynCat. This present version works far better overall, in terms of fallout from the Reaper War, as well as a proper ending to it.)

posting to say am still alive :)

[rhoenix]

The game is technically still active.

We're just waiting on a certain Geth to finish talking down a certain crazy AI.

Hello

[rhoenix]

The game has officially stopped, due to lack of interest by other players, and by myself due to real life concerns at the moment.

There are other games up - feel free to look into them and join up.

[Sabre72]

I still rather enjoyed this game :D
