Humans: Getting attacked for breaking a law they didnt know existed, lost a colony, counter attacked, retook the colony
Rest of the galaxy: HOW DARE YOU
I mean that was pretty much just the Turians. They were ordered to pay reparations, after all.
@@adamb89 And they were pretty bitter about it.
@@adamb89 They did, but animosity stayed especially among the veterans. Not to mention Humanity's effort to catch up with milllenia of expansion of the other races helped foster our image as ''agressive upstarrts''
@@Pyrforos Turians descended from birds. Imagine their horror the first time they heard about a chicken and cheese omelet. Meat of the parents, served with the mutilated remains of their unborn young. That's what humans call "breakfast". Be afraid, Turians. Be very afraid.
@@adamb89 Terror campaigns by releasing foxes at their hatcheries
While the Quarians were getting curbstomped by the Geth, the US and Spain were fighting over a few islands.
While the krogan annihilated their home world Tuchanka with a nuclear war, Egyptians had just started to build the pyramids.
While Asari and Salarians were setting up embassies on the citadel, humans were singing " oonga-boonga "
While the Asari discovered the Citadel, we were still learning how to use iron
I thought CE or council era as it's called years are different from our years? As in 2183 in the mass effect series where the trilogy starts doesn't necessarily mean it's what we would call 2183 as in 161 years from right now?
@@cjvaye99 I'm pretty sure C.E. means common era unless it's different in mass effect compared to real life
A mass effect movie about finding the first relay and the first contact war would be amazing
You know taht would be cool tho I would love to see that
Why not a mass effect game about finding the first array and the first contact war
As someone who joined the ME universe late, really digging the lore for all the stuff I missed.
Likewise
Just bought the Legendary Edition on Steam, thought I’d do some research before I start my galactic adventure!
Same bro, first playthrough on remastered and I love it!
I know like 80% of Mass Effect lore but I've only started playing the original first game a few months before ME Remastered was announced.
I played a bit ME 1 but the combat put me off. I have started to play it again and finished like half of ME 1 but I stopped playing because I don't have much time to spare 🙃
And when I have spare time I forget that I have Mass Effect, Halo (Master Chief collection) and RDR2 on my list lol
Fookin same mate
The first appearance of Biotics must’ve been hilarious and terrifying at the same time.
“Honey why’s the coffee table floating”
(Husband in the next room, holding on to the window sill with the edge of his nails as his child gleefully flings biotic waves)
“YOU WON’T BELIEVE THIS SHIT!”
As a father to four (ages 9, 7, 3, and four months), I can only imagine trying to discipline a toddler who's figured out they can effortlessly toss my ass across the room or out the window with a simple wave of the hand.
In the Mass Effect universe, humanity is seen as something of an underdog. They have one of the smallest militaries in the galaxy, but their emphasis on speed, flexibility, adaptability and personal initiative as well as their progressive nature put the human military on par with that of any council race.
They are also known for their unconventional strategies when it comes to space combat. Humanity introduced 2 concepts that previously weren't even considered in space combat. The first being the space superiority fighter. Though fighters did exist long before humans entered the galactic stage, these fighters, though spaceflight capable, lacked the armament necessary to engage enemy ships and were typically used only in aerial combat. This changed with the development of the human designed Mass Disruptor torpedo. Suddenly giving fighters an anti-shield weapon effective against ships.
The second concept was the fighter carrier. Something that has existed in human civilization for centuries prior to the First Contact war didn't exist in the galactic community. Though all capital ships did have the capability to carry fighters, the concept of a ship with fighters as its main weapon was unheard of
When you think about it a fighter carrier is the navy’s equivalent to a military grade hornet’s nest, of course humans are the ones to bring that to the galactic community
Concerned about Humans rapid growth and expansion and considered by many as a bully.
Yeah nevermind the Krogan during the Krogan Rebellion against the Council.
Ah yes, blame Humanity, ignoring the fact the Turian Hierarchy opened fire at the first instance of a new space faring species, firing at the Alliance Fleet scouts and warships, which had kicked off the First Contact War
If i were right the turians were hailing but never received answer
@@pietervanderzwaan4295 no. It states that the Turians saw a formidable sized fleet of what was researchers that they mistook for a battalion of fighters. So they for some reason opened immediate fire upon the vessels out of Paranoia wiping them out.
A long vessel retreated to the colony of "Shan xi" or something and the Turians laid seige on the planet, starving the populace until the surrender of Ashley's grandfather.
Due to the colony being a research colony that didn't want a fight and want prepared for one, the Turians took this as a weakness and thought we didn't have anything to hit back with. And in that very moment of doubt by the Turians a massive fleet of Humans came and demolished the Turian fleet driving them all down to the planet where the Turians prepared for a ground war....
The Humans did not oblige there ground war.
We starved then just as they did us and they surrendered.
This is when the council stepped in and stopped it before all out war.
@@VannywiththeFanny This is pretty much incorrect. The entire incident was the product of a clandestine blackops carried out by a religious order that sought to retrieve an alien artifact carried by a transport that crashed on Shanxi at some time, to which end one of their leaders, General Desolas, dispatched a patrol fleet - made up of a dozen ships, most of them frigates - along with a mercenary army to retrieve it.
An operation that was successful, though it started a brief conflict with an unaffiliated species in the process.
The first time the Turian Hierarchy even noticed something was going on was when said patrol fleet was attacked by the two hundred ships the SA dispatched to evict said patrol fleet. In response to what they interpreted at first as an unprovoked attack, they launched a full scale mobilization that would have crushed the SA in short order had the Council not intervened.
To conclude; shortly after the incident ended, the Hierarchy found out about General Desolas' involvement along with that of the religious order. So they brought both down summarily before their schemes could advance further. But because of many uncertainties regarding the exact situation, the Hierarchy decided to fabricate the reason for the war - about it being a police action against a nation breaking Citadel Law - and essentially took the blame. Resulting in them paying reparations. (There are many more details, but these are the broad strokes)
2:13 So apparently Mass Effect is the sci-fi timeline we'll end up following... that's fun.
If you take out the Reapers it's not a bad timeline to follow, we might even accelerate past it's expectations
@@UNSCPILOT No Reapers.
(Suddenly, Tyranids)
FUCK
@@TheCorrodedMan id take the reapers over Tyranids any day of the week
@@UNSCPILOT No Reapers.
(Suddenly, Zerg, Tyranids, Flood, Dreen, and the godsdamned Yuuzhan Vong)
I forgot how much i loved Mass Effect, Can't wait to dive back in
I have again and I'm more hooked then before
Yeah. I'm enjoying ME1 so much more than my console playthroughs back in the day. Some of the gameplay aspects are dated af, but there's such a charm to it.
Turians: *Attacks humanity*
Humans: *This is where the fun begins*
"Just like the simulations"
Bruh I’ve watched dozens of mass effect lore vids . Some with hundreds of thousands of views . This is the best .
You’re too kind
@@Fizhy
Did Mass Effect: Andromeda really canonize Elon Musk, Space X?
i swear to god, if Elon just stole the name from Mass Effect to try and fulfill some weird video game prophecy ima fuckin die of laughter
update i have Caught Up, and fuck EA for working Elon into the game canon :|
Are you pretending like he’s not on his way to become The Illusive Man?
Elon's done more to turn Mass Effect into reality than NASA has in the past decade.
@@ebenade1 He funded it but he hasn't done anything other than that. If Bezos were to offer his engineers and scientists a better deal and stole them from him, Bezos would have done as much or more than Elon has.
@@Timeothy Elon is not a Human Extremist.
It astonishes me just how humanity could legitimately do this in the near future and Mass Effect could potentially end up being truth in some way
A lot of people who are knowledgeable in the field have said that the science of ME is realistic. If we were to ever be able to harness dark energy(aka Eezo/Mass Effect Fields)
We got four possibilities: Cyberpunk, Mass Effect, Dead Space, or Fallout
@@jasapotato8362 Or combinations of them
Whose to say that the events of Mass Effect haven't already happened to a degree, and we are just remembering it vaguely in genetic memory, showing in these games?
I love how humanity was just exploring and Turians just show up, get incensed that the filthy apes aren't following Council law when they don't even know it exists yet and fire upon them. Humanity fights back against what they think is a hostile alien forces (...because it was at the time) and one of their colonies get invaded and occupied. *_Fun Fact Time:_* The Turians potentially committed war crimes at Shanxi because from the Codex entry and talk about the battle, it seems like Turians fired mass accelerators at Shanxi - an inhabited planet (that's a big "no-no" in Council law) and killed civilians because of it (also probably not viewed favorably by Council law). This is never really brought up by anyone as proof of Turians being dicks... for some reason... but it's likely because the Turians were doing some very questionable things that the Council decided to appeal favorably to humanity.
And, oh yeah, because humanity got fired upon first and we defended ourselves... we're the violent, savage bully in the universe. Thankfully, like many allies, the animosity eventually simmered down and the two species built a better relationship and report with one another, but... man, were the Turians some dicks at the beginning and it was a bumpy start for humanity. Actually, it's kinda surprising we met the Turians first instead of, say, the Batarians, which are closer to human space according to lore. And, as much as I'd want to see it, probably for the best that humanity didn't meet Asari first. The galactic stage would likely immediately get the idea that we're perverts instead of bloodthirsty savages.
I don't think that humanity would be seen as perverts since the asari culture encourages them to procreate with alien species as they believe their strength comes from having the DNA of multiple species, and it also prevents pure bloods from being born as ardat yakshi. As the dominant race at the time of first contact they probably would have had a much more peaceful transition for humanity into the galactic community
Turians had to pay huge reparations so I bet the war crime they've commited was aknowledged and taken into account by the Council.
Every species wants a piece of the asaris.
I think the war crimes were acknowledged and that's why they have to pay reparations to the Humans.
11:00
I sometimes wonder how the galaxy reacted when human internet was connected to the extranet and how much R34 of other races just flooded the extranet from it
Honestly i think other races would have their own version of rule 34.
@@69Kazeshini pretty sure they did, at least they would have an R34 for Asaris since a large majority of males from each species simp for them.
Prequel around the First Contact War would be awesome!!
Thanks again for the help moving my fridge freezer fizhy mate appreciate it and remember mass effect was originally going to be called Science Fiction X
Roadhouse
Wow really
At what point in the future will we have developed the preference to simply pronounce 69 as "sixty-nice"? These are the questions that a sci-fi series like ME should explore for us.
Nice
I fully support this!
if humans met the asari first, the asari would take over the universe
Ordered the remaster last night absolute banging
I just played andromeda so this is really insightful. And im really looking forward to the legendary edition
Strap in. You're goin for a helluva ride. And you'll enjoy every bit of it.
10:54 I didn't know about this and I don't know if I wanted to
Whoever wrote that piece of lore missed a massive chance - it should have been 2169.
Wow man, great research and video! Thanks! Can't wait to play the trilogy again, only 2 days left!
Keep up the good work. With the remastered edition coming out, right now is the perfect time to start jumping on Mass Effect lore
Thank you for doing these lore vids on Mass Effect. It's one of my favorite game series.
Can't wait to watch more, just subbed.
It kind of sucks that's as soon as Humans get settled in the mass effect world and start to explore what it has to offer, the reapers just pull like "ahaha oh you thought!" And they just commit mass genocide.
True but without humans, specifically Shepard and co., no one would've seen the reapers coming.
Incredible work. I’d played the trilogy before, now on my second play through. But I didn’t know about a lot of this backstory. It’s awesome to discover the full richness of the universe. Thank you.
Dammit fornax magazine missed 2169 by little
Seriously if the council didn't want those relays reactivated, then they could've at least put a warning beacon there.
the turians were the warning beacons. Only instead of warning people they just shoot at them. It's the turians fault 100%
And how were we supposed to know what the Beacon said?
@@cjvaye99No. no they weren’t. They were a patrol fleet looking for pirates and criminals. You don’t just station a military fleet next to something you want people to stay away from. That’s just a waste of resources.
@@addisonwelsh Pictograms are universal, or at least one could assume,that starfaring species have eyes to see them.
@@addisonwelsh the humans tried first contact, that happened in the form of bullets.
More of this! Lore leading up to ME1 is great!
Wow. I'm a ME fan since day one, almost 15 years ago.
I thought I'd know everything about the game and it's lore. But you just showed me that there still had been things I simply didn't know about, like the origin of Red Sand for example.
Thank you for that, and keep going with the good work mate.
4:45; "Humanity uncovered an ancient fuel source. They would go on to call this fuel; Argent energy."
So hyped for Thursday
Mass effect comes out on friday
Super awesome 👏 and insightful!
Brilliant and entertaining as well as providing much needed background. BTW, I believe most if not all the element zero accidents were planned in order to increase biotic births.
I think it would be cool to have a spin off game for the first contact war.
I think a DLC would be better. Since it would be pretty hard to make any meaningful choices if we already know what would happen. Also the contact war wasn't that long in terms of story so I think it would be better to be a DLC for mass effect 4.
I think the time between discovery of the Prothean tech on Mars to the start of ME1 is a little too short. Just a few decades and Humans were more or less on par technologically with the Turians that had been advanced for a few centuries at that point.
They actually weren't. If the council didn't intervene after Shanxi, humanity would have been wiped out. Humanity were still inexperienced. It was only within the next 30 years, after adapting to alien technology did humanity become the galactic superpower it was in the games
@@christophergroenewald5847 I recognize your point. I forget specifically where the quote is from, I want to say the first Mass Effect book Revelation, that their technological levels were pretty close. Still in another 30 years they can be be on a council member.
@@Kyle7885 you have to remember both of them based their tech on prothean technology. If you are both reading the same blue prints its not hard to match technology adapting to it so quick is more amazing than having it.
@@christophergroenewald5847 not exactly true turians were shocked and thrown off guard when a huge retaliatory fleet showed up to retake the colony destroying the turian fleet there. This caused the turians to prepare for all out war causing the attention of the council. They may have won an all out war at the time but the fact they even prepared for one at all shows they felt humans a threat and thus it wouldn't have been as lopsided as you think. Not to mention the video even mentions there were more turian than human casualties in the war.
@@BB-ce5ev actually the humans only defeated the Turians on Shanxi because the turians thaught that the hand full of ships they encountered represented the bulk of human defenses and did not prepare for an entire fleet to arrive. The battle was only won due to numbers, not power. In the codex it says, "Lucky for humanity, the first contact war ended in peace" considering that the codex is written from the perspective of humanity it means that even humans acknowledge that it wasn't going to be a war, it was going to be a slaughter
Thank you sir for the video
Really good video I enjoyed this.
Already preordered the game, and oh I can't wait to get back into it again.
I still find it impressive and indicative of what makes humanity special in-game that the asari and salarians have had something akin to Council tech for centuries if not millennia before humans entered the galactic stage, and despite only showing up a few decades ago, humans are now on par technologically with everybody else. Maybe even a bit beyond them, since we invented some stuff nobody could figure out before, like quantum entanglement communication.
Also, hilarious and dumb that the galaxy looks at humans as bullies for defending ourselves from an aggressive Council race and spreading to unused, unclaimed territory.
Just started the legendary edition. So much nostalgia man.
Good info!
cant wait for the remaster !!!
Great video.
If the other races find Humanity to be a bully in ME, they’d very quickly count their blessings if they lived in the WH40K universe. Not only will humanity break whatever law it wants there, all filthy Xenos have a standing death sentence for the crime of existence.
Fr tho ME and 40k are turning out to be some of my favorite fictional settings of all time
Nice, I subbed
I happy Lore videos are back, Not that i didnt enjoy you playing as random Red Dead characters reaking havoc on the local Populace
Whats the name of the space music? I hear it everywhere but I keep forgetting to look it up
I think you are looking for mass effect 1 vigil theme
Some of the best sci Fi out there
I want to say although I could be wrong that some points between the skillion Blitz and yakuz is when Shepherd is active prior to Mass Effect 1
It depends on which reputation u choose when u created Shepherd's backstory
War hero - You were on shore leave on Elisium when the baterians attacked. You single handedly defended the colony until reenforcments arived
Ruthless - You lead the unit that attacked Torfan. You willingly sacrificed most of your unit to make sure every baterian on that moon was dead
Sole surviver - you and your unit of 50 marines were responding to a distress signal on the colony of Akuze. It tuned out to be a trap that lead your unit into a thresher nest. You were the only one to walk out
@@christophergroenewald5847 yeah then you find out Toombs actually survived Akuze also
10:53 I'm surprised the person writing that codex entry didn't go for the obvious joke of it being released in 2169, he was just 2 years out.
It's nice to finally have the lore told to me instead of me reading myself after all these years
Lol wait how did they get all the ice off of the Pluto relay?
It wasn’t Pluto, it was Pluto’s moon Charon, and it activated on its own.
Did the activation of the mass relays in large numbers trigger the Reapers to come back to the galaxy due the threshold of advancement being reached? Interesting if that is the case.
No. Sovereign calls the reapers but they can't come because someone messed up the citadel relay.
@@colinnixon7739 just as far as that level of advancement for harvesting being reached due to multiple relays being activated
@@ctr1502 if you meant the relays being opened, yes this means the local species is advanced enough to get killed
@@colinnixon7739 Yeah, and didn't Vigil mention that Sovereign sent out the signal decades prior to the events of Mass Effect 1 and got no answer due to the last of the Protheans blocking the Keepers from responding which forces it to manipulate Saren.
No they come at a certain point every time. They just were late because of the keeper signal being blocked
I find it funny it’s humanity who are the ones who contributed porn to the galactic community
For a second I thought the entirety of 1:57 was being attributed to Plato and my understanding of who Plato was took me for a mental ride.
Love Mass Effect
Never get enough Mass Effect universe talking... 👍🏾
I love your lore videos Fizhy!
I watched a lot of rdr2 content on your channel and love the fact that you cover ME too, one of my fav games ever. However, you forgot one thing in this video. The part where in 1987, one of the turians landed on Earth triggering a brutal fight with a band of elite commandos led by Arnold Schwarzenegger!
P. S. - Sorry... I'll see myself out!
I love you fizhy
The rise of humanity was the ending of me1 saving the destiny ascension
I’m glad my boy Elon is cannon
I've dreamt something that is quite related to this
Fun fact in the mass effect universe the us Canada and Mexico were united under one government called the united north american states
Frankly the least realistic thing from the lore.
@@baneofbanesYep, the landmass is too big and many different groups wouldn’t get along.
@@tdoran616The Canadians and Mexicans have similarities with fairly large cultural groups within the US. It’s not completely out of the realm of possibility.
To think if we didn't find that ancient tech on Mars until decades later the galaxy would have been wiped out and it would be likely that the humans would have made it first to the Citadel.
Keep in mind that up until very recently (as in the Edwardian period), the night sky was to people what cable tv and streaming video are to us today. You can see this in grand style with all the stories people created looking up at the night sky. While video games add an interactive element that was lacking in these stories (you did get crowd participation that would make Rocky Horror fans approve though), they are an evolution of those stories once told about uncountable thousands of points of light. This time, told with even more points of light than anyone ever saw in the night sky with their own eyes.
caveat: With perfect seeing (stillness of the atmosphere), perfect transparency (zero clouds) a flat horizon (like out on the ocean), a new moon (as black as night can be) and 45 min of dark adaptation for your eyes (it takes 30-45 min to _fully_ adapt to the dark, remind you of the time taken up in the 2 crepuscular times of the day?) One could possibly see around 10,000 stars with the mk. 1 eyeball at any given place. Just 10k out of the billions and trillions that are out there... and look how many stories we told about those few. (granted, move a bit and you could see another 10k, but we know how little people really moved around then, no pressing need nor easy means stifled travel a bit.)
I hope I get the chance to see a galaxy like ME one day
good vid
big gaming video by big gaming ethan
How has humanity gained the unfavourable reputaion they have? Simple:
IRL: that't what the writers want.
IGL: ETs are either jealous or racist or afraid. Probably the first one though, with a tinge of the third.
This game gave me great dream fuel
Fornax, lol made me spit my water out
10:17 reheared that three times in case I didn’t hear it right
So, only 126 years to go
But in our time it short like 20 to 40 year later
Oh yeah warp bubble is created
Yessir!! Red dead AND Mass Effect!
I feel like some of the ME timeline should be compressed, and other parts stretched out. The Rachni Wars and Krogan Rebellions are treated as much more recent events despite having taken place like 1800 years ago. Humanity is almost on the same technological level as the Asari despite them founding the Citadel 2200 years ago. Compress that all down to 300 years or so. And then there is the other side, namely humanity building fleets, colonies and getting a seat on the Council within 20 years. Stretch that out to about a hundred years. But let this be my greatest gripe with Mass Effect.
You obviously didn't watch the video.
Humanity gained 1500 years of knowledge in a instant and would develop further on it, given the chance humanity would eventually be able to seize the citadel by force as cerberus almost did.
@@pietervanderzwaan4295No we wouldn’t. The Citadel has far superior industry, fleet sizes, and manpower compared to humanity.
Our largest colony has a population of ten million. The largest Citadel colony we find is a Turian world with a population of over a billion.
@@addisonwelsh the turians known to having the greatest armadas almost got defeated by humanity also vice versa but this shows that if a bit stronger the Citadel would be at humanities mercy.
@@pietervanderzwaan4295 No, we beat a small patrol fleet by using overwhelming numbers. We did not defeat a proper Turian battle fleet.
Ya like jazz
Unironically Genocide Batarians
One day we will rise to power and become the dominant
Came here for red dead, stayed for mass effect. Great content.
the bullied will always be the bully, if the bully is hit wen and were he never expected
Elon Musk being ME canon is perfect
I swear if it wasn’t for politics, we would at least have the moon mapped already.
Let me just me honest and say that if Mass Effect lore was reality, I would probably join Cerberus.
HUMAN POWER !

What was the deal with no being able to activate mass relays. I never caught that in the games and I can't count how many times I've played it. I never caught that there were more of them inactive. So why are only a few active, reapers I guess. But why is it wrong for the humans to turn them on
In the old days, the Council used to open any Relay they found. This led to them stumbling into the Rachni, and started the Rachni Wars.
After that, the Council made a law that said you could not open Relays blind. You have to know what’s on the other side.
1:45 nice😏😏
mate...
Give it 200 years and this will be a template for history lessons, though at that point it'll be deemed obsolete as our future generations will have the relevant information jammed into their skulls through some futuristic tech, likely to save time cos we'll need to figure out proper resource management at some point before then xD
sadly starship exploded today， which means we'll find first mass relay later than 2149
