Curing the genophage

>curing the genophage
Why would anyone do this? The Krogan are space niggers who only breed and kill. They are too stupid and violent to allow that to happen. Grunt is the only Krogan who isn't retarded.

Niggers can have their uses and we could always just neuter them again if they tried anything.

Also if Wrex was alive his leadership would've prevented them from having another nigger moment. There were other reasonable Krogan like that 1 business man who talks to Shepherd like an accountant rather than a ruthless murderer in 2.

>Niggers can have their uses
Mercenaries, that's it.
>Also if Wrex was alive his leadership would've prevented them from having another nigger moment.
Wrex was a dumb nigger like the rest, without that Eve bitch to keep him in check he would be no different. And as soon as both of them die, the entire race is back to being niggers.

The Krogan aren't meant to make it. Species go extinct all the time throughout history.

Wrex is more level headed than Grunt. The key is if you didn't kill Wrex and Eve lives. Both are perfect leaders for the krogan people. Weav on the other hand is fucking horrible.

If Wrex dies it is because he tards the fuck out though

>Grunt is the only Krogan who isn't retarded.

Grunt is the most retarded squadmate you have in 2, though. He even beats Jacob at being poorly written.

That being said, unlike Jacob he's fun to have around.

As soon as Wrex dies, the next leader nigs it up. They are a shit race.

None of this matters, though. We'll never see how the krogans affect the galaxy post-ME3.

BioWare can return to the Milky Way if they grow some balls and declare Paragon and Destroy as the canon choices.

I want a krogan husband

>BW will declare Paragon canon
>Destroy ending canon
>All the best possible choices like curing genophage, making peace with quarins and geth, all the cute little side quests and helping your old friends canon
>Portions of the geth, and EDI, surviving canon
>All the squadmates surviving canon
>Starchild non-canon
>In your lifetime

KROGAN

Yes, mercenaries which were desperately needed at that moment. No one knew how the war would play out and everyone's lives were on the line. Letting the Krogan breed again was a major decision that could have potentially swayed the outcome of a galactic scale war where every last living being was at risk. If the war had actually lasted a long time, the Krogan could have single handedly turned the tide.

So NOT undoing the Genophage at the time is retarded. There's no reason they couldn't just preserve Mordin's data and tell Wrex, "Listen shithead, if your dumbass lizard niggers go nigging everything up we'll bring this shit back but 10 times as bad"

>ME2 and 3 were just a dream
>Shepard is still being rebuilt by Cerberus

>ME2
>Krogan have a hard time breeding
>In one of the hubs, there's a Krogan and Asari have a frank conversation about their child
>Imagine being so desperate to have an offspring that you would fuck a blueberry

Probably one of the more touching moments in ME2

Curing the genophage is only a good idea if Wrex is there to rein in the Krogan. However its always good to give a middle finger to Salarians, the same race who wanted to uplift the fucking Yaug. Still better than the Asari

Replaying. I haven't gotten to the part with Grunt yet. Trying to do full renegade sassy black woma, but me2 makes it so fucking hard. Is there a +100 renegade option that keeps Krogan out of your party? I'll take it.

>that krogan died in 3
>You have to deliver his last poem to his wife

There is also that part where the Asari and Krogan couple are talking about how they can only have Asari children and the Krogan is super disappointed

>you would fuck a blueberry

And on Tuchanka you can listen to a Krogan talking about how he got to see his son when he visited the women's area. The way he talks about it makes it clear the poor lizard was practically crying about it, it's the most emotional any Krogan ever gets in the series.

>We'll never get a post-Destroy ending game with old man Shepard
It's like BioWare hates profit.

Oh fuck I remember that. Well its a good thing that we avenged hi-........goddammit Bioware...

>Grunt
>Poorly written

u wot, he's not the most fantastic and complex character ever but he's up there as one of the best ME crewmates.

I'll tolerate a paragon ending if Destroy is canon

Renegade 4 lyfe tho

We'rent there a ton of Krogan stillborn too? Man being Krogan is suffering.

Just flush his tank and shoot his corpse out the airlock.

This, of all the space cunts in Mass Effect, Asari are by and far the biggest cunts. It's their fault that the cycle is even continuing in the first place.

They are literally jews in space. All they had to do was show that VI to everyone they kept secret and everybody could've planned for the shit better. What makes it even more retarded is a person on the council is a fucking Asari and probably knew about it but still refused to believe Shepherd saw a Reaper even when he claimed to see it at the exact time when they were supposed to show back up. The Salarians are fucking dumb too.

Humanity should've taken over.

That seemed to be how the genophage worked, according to Eve.

Female krogans would still get pregnant often but 90% of the time the babies would come out stillborn.

>All the races are stranded on ruined Earth since mass effect technology is ded
>Indocrinated remnants still being a threat
>Mission is to study what remains of the Reapers to restore the relays and ME tech while avoiding a genocidal war between the survivors

yes

Well good thing I didn't play that abomination

Still a fucking huge middle that the first two games are on Steam, and the third one is on Origin

I've thought about buying the collection for the PS3, but I have the feeling they'll want to charge me again for the DLC I've already bought.

Swap the Space Jews and the Space Gypsies and we'll agree perfectly.

That's the real reason the salarians are cunts. Instead of just altering the number of eggs produced by females they fucking traumatize the entire species for all eternity by forcing them to give stillbirths 99% of the time.

What it did was stabilize their birth rate to be comparable to any other race. The problem is Krogan are literally retarded. They wouldn't even have been a part of the galaxy for another 1,000 years or so had the Salarians not forcibly uplifted them, if at all.

It was basically the equivalent of giving cavemen flamethrowers and then letting them loose on each other. They were fucked from day one.

>Yahg

They are literally the master race, if they get uplifted they'll conquer everyone else.

I got ME3 some time ago, should I play it?

>Be Krogan warrior
>Live a long and strong life
>Want to pass teachings to son so he may bring honor to clan like those before
>Lucky enough to find mate willing to open quadpod
>Ecstatic when you hear shes pregnant
>Try not to get hopes up but still excited to raise young warrior
>Child doesnt make it
>Decide to whore out as merc because fuck the galaxy
Fuck.

Do you have any of the DLCs?

That's what it DID, but the method it reached that result with was stillbirths.

Salarians are fucking psychopaths, man. How did they think this was a peaceful solution that would cease resentment and hostility, even for a moment?

>anyone that likes PBC is a good person

I was surprised by how much I ended up liking Grunt, based companion

>if Wrex was alive

>man Shepard

I haven't decided which, but one of you should shoot the other and then yourself.

Play until the last 15 mins then shut it off like your system was about to explode. Dont do it to yourself user. You will be mad and forever remain mad

>no option to leave the Salarians and the Asari to burn
At least the Batarians got fucked.

No, are any of them important or something?

This was my biggest issue with the series, there is never a negative consequence for paragon choices, even when it really feels like there should be. Like that old lady mob boss in me2 (?) the paragon choice is pretty much "sure I'll let you go as long as you change your ways". Now you would think that would come back and bite you in the ass, but nope, next time you see her she's running a fucking orphanage. Paragon and renegade choices were a mistake, the way choice is handled in the witcher games was far better. Sometimes the "evil" choice is for the best, and some times the "good" choice leads to more death.

Mordin spent years trying to justify his involvement, that it served a greater good. In a way they did save the galaxy, but at the cost of starting the slowest genocide ever. At least he undid the wrong

They get over serious emotional trauma in a day the way their brains work.
They probably just figured everyone else did too.

The genophage has nothing but positive effects on Krogan lives, it's their own political ignorance that keeps them living in Space Detroit.

Leviathan explains the Reapers and the ending, From Ashes gives you a Prothean squadmate, and Citadel is the best thing to happen in the series. Omega is okay if you like ME3's combat, but it isn't really heavy on story content.

Because they're faggot beta nerds, that's why.

The Krogan would've neutered themselves with their own genophage had they not been uplifted prematurely. They would've done this because they were already in a nuclear winter, and without being able to leave their own planet yet they would've learned the important lesson of controlling their population, and probably would've done something about it themselves.

Only problem is the Salarians, being beta faggots, prematurely uplifted them to solve a problem that wasn't theirs, because they were too incompetent to do it themselves.

On personal note, I'd recommend From the Ashes solely on the fact that Javik has some genuinely amusing dialogue with the rest of the cast.

But what if we could choose between old man MaleShep and silver fox FemShep?

Not only did I not cure the genophage, but I killed Wrex without mercy, shot Mordin in the back, and also didn't invite Grunt to Shepard's Citadel house party (or James).

I don't look at Krogan as people. They're vorcha-tier trash. Yeah you grow a friendship with Wrex. Comradery. You know what you also grow a friendship with? Your pet animal.

Playing through Mass Effect 3 and jesus christ this game is a bit of a slog to get through, not like the first 2. I just finished Thessia, how much of the game do I have to go?

I never really played the Omega DLC for ME3, was that fun time?

Krogans can be surprisingly cool dudes.

Chill about almost anything, straight to the point in conversations, have no qualms about solving problems in the most straightforward manner available.

The Batarians are space jihadists and deserve to get fucked. I almost want Andromeda to have a subplot about trying to redeem some of them but I know modern ME team couldn't handle it realistically

>playing womyn Shepard

It happens a few times like if you let that one Asari woman who works as a receptionist live, she turns out to be evil and makes fun of you on her space laptop.

Might have to check some of those out. I do like the idea of a prothean squad mate in particular.

It depends on what you want in a game

Witcher was good in that aspect because quest choices were morally ambiguous.

ME doesnt need that kind of ambiguity though. It's a rather shallow space opera.

You can either be a noble honorable captain, or a rogueish badass, and the game makes those two choices as simple and clear cut as possible

You're 90% through.

There are 2 or 3 pc mods that can change the ending to a happy and simple "killed the reapers, relays were damaged but can be repaired" ending. There's no reason to pass up on playing ME3 anymore, especially if you just pirate the DLCs.

Did you literally skip the ending? Hacket says all that shit is gonna get rebuilt.

I like how he shits on Liara and her race.

You know, thinking back on it I kind of want to revisit the series, kill off as many aliens as I possibly can, use only human squadmates, make an all-human council, fuck Miranda's perfect genes, and destroy the Reapers for no other reason than not being human.

It's really good but it's 95% combat. Just cerberus troop after troop after troop. If you don't love ME3's gameplay you will not like it at all.

Best written character yet still isn't romanceable
The fuck. speaking of romance they really like giving you shitty choices only a couple of romance options were good

He shits on everybody, doesn't he?

He also tells that "joke" to James.

>carrie-anne moss was aria
fuck i had no idea

femshep renegade is the best way to play ME.

Put on some black lipstick and a black bob cut, then stomp down everyone as the universe's baddest bitch

>The asari knew about the protheans all along
>They didn't tell Liara a thing
>Liara spends all of her life making a fool of herself
She deserved better.

The Salarians stepped in because their evidence suggested that the Krogans would either reach a state of interplanetary travel before establishing political stability and population control, and/or that they would be weaponized by another Omega Relay-using group and become effectively unstoppable in a ground campaign.

Which, they were right about. Both Grunt and Wrex admit this point. There's no argument to the ethical point of the Genophage, only the moral conundrum of denying the species self-determination.

You fight a lot of Cerberus cannon fodder with Aria, meet a qt Turian (female) who dies and then Aria murders the Cerberus general. Or doesn't if you go Paragon.
That's really all there is.

I decided not to cure it, I love Wrex and Grunt but it they really are the niggers of ME. I wish white people had the balls to make a similar choice after slavery.

That doesn't stop them from carrying fuckhuge grudges for the entirety of their shitty lives, now does it?

The Salarians are cunts. Fuck them. Humanity should be in charge. That's the race that gets shit done.

And if you played the game as Paragon, the Krogan, Quarian, and Geth are probably going to side with humanity and fuck over the space jews and their nerdy lizard faggot friends.

Galaxy.

He definitely shits on the Asari and Liara more heavily than the others.

Except sometimes Paragon is just Lawful Stupid, and sometimes it's Lawful Evil with no clear cut
Same with Renegade, it swings wildly between Chaotic Evil and Neutral

Knowing that they fucked literally everyone over after being given the opportunity to set shit right for your dead race would piss you off too. The Asari he meets in the game are lucky he doesn't just stomp their colons out whenever he sees them while in a pure rage.

This.Thus far Mass Effect has shown that Batarians are, to an individual, all sneaky, murderous assholes with no exceptions whatsoever. Not a one. Not even an edgy, rebellious teenager Batarian who screws the rules, smokes behind the school, and volunteers for litter pick-up to spite his parents.

Javik wasn't wrong.

>So NOT undoing the Genophage at the time is retarded

The biggest problem with undoing the genophage is that reapers would just capture female krogans and turn them into babyfactories for more krogan soldiers, we never actually got a proper krogan reaper soldier like the turians and asari ones.

>Every few years I get start feeling the urge to replay them
>Reinstall them all with the DLC
>Take my time to fully explore all of the areas and side content
>Having a blast
>Even enjoy ME3 as the combat is a big step up and the DLC is about as good as ME2s for the most part
>Start to draw near to the end
>Dread and sadness take hold
>Stop playing

Maybe this year I'll play to the end.

Wasn't there one in 3 that made friends with a fellow human refugee?

They Asari were uplifted by the Protheans themselves to fight the Reapers and they did shit with that.

A monumental failure of a race.

We SORT OF got a krogan soldier.

The Brute was krogan, albeit also mixed with turian.

As mentioned earlier in the thread, there is a mod to replace the ending to a simple happy one and even another one to integrate the citadel dlc as the game's actual epilogue.

>Javik basically tears down everything Liara believed in
>Doesnt give a fuck when EDI momentarily goes offline when clone shepard takes over ship
He truly was a gem wasnt he?

In fact, the asari did the worst out of EVERY major race.

The humans did better. The turians did better. The krogan did better. The quarians did better. The fucking SALARIANS did better. Even the geth, who spent half the war on the REAPER'S SIDE, did better.

The asari are the only ones who completely lost their homeworld and were wiped out down to the last woman. They were completely annihilated on a scale no other race besides the elcor was. And all because their leaders were conspiratorial cunts that hoarded power that did them jack shit in the end

Krogans are based

Javik would absolutely be our guy, if Gig wasn't made for the role.

>They are literally jews in space.
Please, that's the volus.

Asari are just plain retarded.

Volus are the greed of the jew, but the Asari are the hunger for power and rule.
If an Asari and Volus ever bred...

This is what I'm doing now. The voice actor is pretty good at being serious.

...

Man all this talk of mass effect has me tempted to do a full playthrough from start to end. I never did get to see the extended cut or play the last DLC. It worth a go?
