"Heroics" that left a bad taste in your mouth

[spartandude]

you know you are right to an extent about all things (except for the IM being indoctrinated, they couldnt make their minds up when it came to him).

Spoiler

If you believe that they didn't make it clear that the Illusive Man was indoctrinated, then that just goes to prove that you've never actually played the ending.

for the love of god

Spoiler

the reason i say this is for 2 big reasons.

1. during the assault on the hidden cerberus base (the one with Mirander's father) it clearly shows that the Reapers really wanted to kill the IM, which is a rather large indication he wasnt under their control, because he was close to finding a way to control them.

2.at the ending. when Shepard, Anderson and the IM are standing in the citadel, the IM is in a perfect position to simply kill both of them and end this huge threat. yet he doesnt do this. he still tries to convince them that the reapers can be controlled and that its still the best option. if he was indoctrinated there would be no reason why he would bother. this differ's from saren's reason for conversation at the end of ME1 because then shepard and co were in a position to kill him, but not in ME3. (ofcourse this could be just shit writing, but then again that is my point =)

but then yes there is alot of evidence to say that he is indoctrinated, tonnes of reaper tech infused into him, Kai Leng was detected as indoctrinated by the prothean beacon/ai etc

so this is why i think they didnt make it very clear.

and by the way, you can accuse me all you want of me not having played the games and just jumping on the hate ME3 bandwagon but that doesnt make it so

...You must film this. O.O

Unfortunately I don't think my aging laptop could handle running Skyrim and a screen recording program, and you really need a video + psychotic paranoid running commentary to make it any good. I had briefly thought of doing a let's play, but the screen blur and frequent chases don't work with screencaps, it'd be three static images of me in a house, me outside surrounded by guards, and me in a jail repeated ad nauseum (literal nausea with the alcohol blur)

Maybe when I get a better laptop I'll look into it, and post it here (except advertising your own videos is forbidden. I suppose I could stick it in user reviews, although that might annoy the regulars)

No. No! You mustn't think so negatively, or else your nemesis will be victorious! Can't have that, the insufferable prick would never shut up about it, and how would you ever drink in peace again?!

I proposer a toast, a toast to your future success!

HUZZAH! A toast it is!

Very well then, when my grant comes in from the foreign office and I buy a new laptop I'll get FRAPS or something and film a few sessions to knock together a propaganda tape that will smite my nemesis and hopefully get me smashed for under a fiver.
I'll also make another hunt for a Sherlock Holmes deerstalker hat mod, because my fine face does look a bit bare without it, and I can't believe no one has made that mod yet.

And get a set of Emperor's Robes, or perhaps some modded to look filthy (and be heavy armor). I've seen rags, and they just don't look like a heavy coat.

In Fallout whenever your Karma gets a positive boost for murdering Fiends. I absolutely cannot stand it, but I've never heard of anyone mention it before. Surely I can't be the only one who hates that?

I guess the idea is that a.) they are just that evil, kinda like slavers, or b.) their lives suck so much because of their multiple addictions that killing them is a kindness, kinda like ghouls.

Truthfully, the one I don't get is why stealing from these evil folk doesn't incur kharma loss. So stealing's okay but only if you steal from the right people?
