    I did this on my first ever playthrough 9 years ago. I really, truly hoped Tali could convince the fleet to stand down, then the Quarians and Geth could resolve their differences if I uploaded the code. Once I realized I couldn't Rally the fleet I knew I'd fucked up. That Suicide scene destroyed me, and was the only time I've ever reverted a save file in a blind Mass Effect playthrough.

    I will never understand Bioware's hatred of Tali. The only thing they showed of her in the entire trilogy the LE trailer... was her death scene. Just like the og ME3 trailer, all they showed was her death scene. Even in the ME2 trailer they play audio from her death scene. She's the easiest character to kill on the suicide mission, being one of the only squadmates who's loyalty mission you can fail, and even if you do succeed you can lose her loyalty when she argues with legion. She's one of the few squadmates who can die doing the one role she's good at on the SM even if she's loyal (also likely to die on the ship), for some reason it defaults to her first for every option, despite the fact that it's not alphabetical and she will die if you pick her for most of them. Oh, she's also the only one of the 3 main squadmates (garrus, liara, tali) from the OT that doesn't even get a mention in MEA. Then of course we have ME3. Still to this day I despise bioware for how they handled this entire story arc. First off, they weren't even going to make Tali a squadmate (despite how popular she was), and only relented at the last minute because of Patrick Weekes. The worst part though is the way they portrayed the quarian/geth conflict. It's one of the most biased, one-sided campaigns that bioware has ever done. They did EVERYTHING to make you sympathize with the geth and hate the quarians, from start to finish. They even made siding with the geth the top option, knowing full well that most players play paragon. They also originally had the 2 options labeled 'allow legion to upload the code' and 'let the geth die', as opposed to 'let the quarians die' in place of the former.
    Still think I'm making this up and they didn't hate Tali and the quarians? Ok, then list one instance where the quarians are involved in the story in any way, and they DON'T get slaughtered. You literally can't. In every game, every book, the comics, etc. the quarians exist only to get slaughtered. Some writer has a fetish for watching them die because it's all they do in all 3 games (hell they even managed to squeeze some more in in to a tie in novel of MEA). It wouldn't surprise me if in ME4 they make it canon that all of the quarians died. In fact I would bet on them doing it.

    • @SEXUAL-ABUSER
      @SEXUAL-ABUSER 9 місяців тому +3

      You forget to mention that not once in the last two games does Shepard say "I love you" or "I love you too" if you romance her despite saying both for pretty much every other romance option.
      Oh and Shepard just acting cold to her in general throughout the 3rd game was also really hard to watch. Just randomly saying default lines when Tali poured her heart out in certain scenes.
      There's also the rewriting of the Krogans to be some woke feminist allegory.
      If I had to take a shot in the dark, it was probably someone that worked on ME3 having a bone to pick with Drew Karpyshyn's writing who was the one that made and wrote Tali for the first two games along with the entire plot and worldbuilding for both. He left Bioware twice so the likelyhood that they had some sort of falling out is high. The likelyhood is even higher when you also consider the fact that when he left he said the studio was quote "too corporate", a year before Anthem's release which, would you know it, was a hyper corporate slop game. This coincides with him leaving in 2012, shortly before the release of Mass Effect 3. What likely happened is that he wrote Tali's script and someone else wrote Shepard's script along with the script for the Krogans. Which would make perfect sense as Tali retains her usual personality for the majority of the game but Shepard seems to be less assertive in the 3rd game.
      They also seem to ignore any and all criticism as outlined in their response to Jason Shreier's article on Bioware's poor management so that would give probable cause to suspect Bioware of being arrogant towards Drew Karpyshyn.

    I hate to do this but it's been debated it's such a well acted scene and it's sad. However, I am going to play devil's advocate here. I save both because they're assets, but the Quarians in hindsight got what was coming to them. 1. They're the ones who created the Geth 2. When the Geth achieved intelligence beyond their design with the intent to learn more sentience the Quarians should have adopted them (in a sense) 3. The Geth fought back when they knew what self awareness and self-defense was 4. The Quarians kept perpetuating the conflict and constantly sought every opportunity to destroy the Geth and take back their homeworld instead of trying to understand their own creation that now has life. 5. I love Tali she's tied for my favorite romance, but even when the evidence is there in her face that the Geth were persecuted she still lacked the confidence, understanding, and diplomacy to find peace without judgment of the past. The Geth and Quarian war is a reminder of what happens when we reach for hate instead of reaching for words.

I just got really lucky that I had saved Korris among some of the other criteria so I was able to end things peacefully.
