    Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel.
    Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple RUclips show, to a radio show, a tv show and now once again a RUclips destination. Welcome to VGS.

      Couldn’t have put it better myself. Something about knowing Wrex has that undying brotherly love for Shepard and trusts him the fate of his entire species just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I think it hits different because with Garrus, Tali and Liara, they tend to pretty much love you no matter what you do (barring Tali if you convict her Dad in ME2) but the fact that you only get this level of affection from Wrex if you earn it and truly do right by him makes it feel so much more special.

      Mardeen Cortoreal Because some people need to have an excuse to take out all their frustration over their disappointing lives on a convenient, imaginary target. You know that because their reactions are so ridiculously overblown - they are clearly over-compensating for something!
      The irony is that even if we just take for granted that the end of ME3 is somehow the "worst in the history of gaming" everything else in the game is so fantastic as to still make ME3 a classic. But, haters have got to hate.

    • @Ranillon

      TheRadPlayer I completely agree - if just one aspect can turn a game into a "crime against humanity" as some people treat ME3 then something is VERY messed up when it comes to their attitudes and priorities!

      I agree, it indeed takes some important points out of its final score, but even if the ending sucks hard it doesn't mean that the whole game sucks hard too.
      At least IMO, Mass Effect 3 (and the whole trilogy) could've been a 9 or 10/10 masterpiece with a worthy ending, but the final result downgraded it to a 7.5 or 8/10 (very good, but far from a classic).

    It's not so much as 1/1000 Krogan being fertile. If that was the case I'd have far less angst against the genophage. Wrex probably would too.
    It's the fact that 999/1000 Krogan born are stillborn as a result of the genophage and don't live past 2 years of age. This drove most female krogan to commit suicide and filled the already defeated male Krogan into very angry mercenaries to where life didn't matter to them anymore and wanted revenge for what they had to deal with. The non fertile females were more then willing to defend their bretheren who could bear healthy children by being their decoys. The council was lucky the Krogan didn't go completely rouge like the batarians and sold themselves out as mercenaries instead treating death like a joke.

    You know, the Salarians should have created a lesser version of the Genophage. Instead of making it 1/1000, they should have made it 250/1000 or 500/1000. Making it 1/1000 is just cruel.

    • @Igarappappa

    • @tidan4575
      @tidan4575 Год назад +1

      The real problem with the genophage was that it didn't affect fertility rates as advertised, but killed the unborn while still in the womb. It drove most Krogan women to suicide and most Krogan males to become mercs since there wasn't anything else worth fighting for.

      There's a DLC for Mass Effect 2 that lets you decide all the important ME1 choices for yourself without needing to play the whole thing. But honestly it'd be better to just play ME1 for the experience. It's a bit more of a grind than the others, but the story is worth it.

      Or import a me1 save into me2. You’ll go crazy playing me1, trust me
