    One of my favorite tiny lore bits is one of the planets you can land on and roam on in Mass Effect 1 casually drops that the planet is coated in a pollen that can induce anaphylactic shock nigh instantly in most council species, and that is such a terrifying concept that is basically a travel note for the Mass Effect races

    Fun fact, waaay back when ME-3 first released I bought the official game-guide from game-stop. In it, it had an obscure tid-bit that I've never see anyone talk about. Apparently, if you keep a certain type of fish alive in the cabin fish tank from ME-2 to the end of ME-3, then it says something like "Liara has unique dialogue for shepard". Sounds like it was a fun little easter egg, but I never did attempt to do it back then and have no Idea if it works in the remastered editions. If anyone knows what that Liara scene was, I'd love to know

      If you import a save from Mass Effect 2 with a live Prejek Paddlefish into Mass Effect 3, keep the Paddlefish alive through an entire Mass Effect 3 playthrough and import the character again, a special Intel Bonus from Liara's Quarters on the Normandy is made immediately available. The Prejek Paddlefish Bonus gives you a 10% bonus to either Weapon or Power Damage.

      Me too, like the Raloi and the Virtual Aliens these are cool stories that could have been explored in further depth but weren't. I think primarily it worked well this way as there's cool shit happening where the player isn't too, which is what you want from a world building perspective. That being said I hope these things crop up in the future because it'd be cool to see it applied to the world-building.

  • @LeoH3L1
    @LeoH3L1 Год назад +3

    If you applied real world evolutionary principles to the Vorcha and Salarians, they should be evolving at a much faster rate when ever their environment demands it, since evolutionary changes can only occur each time reproduction happens, and since they do that at a faster rate, their evolution should also be faster, they would stabilise faster too, so it would appear that their rate is low if their environment is fairly stable over time, but if it changes, they would have a much higher chance of surviving than other species, because they could evolve quicker to the change.

    @SweetGwendoline98 Год назад +1

    I know that you can't say it's canon because Dragon Age and Mass Effect are both just from Bioware but I enjoy the idea that both play in the same universe. In Kasumi's DLC, yeah I know it's just a DLC but hear me out, you can find an ogre statue but also in Dragon Age: Inquisition you can find in Halamshiral a krogans head and the description was, iirc, something along the lines of someone having been on a hunt and finding a weird species, the krogan, so that guy killed the krogan and took his head as a trophy. So this would mean that long before our known history of mankind all these elves, dwarfs and qunari existed and idk I just think it's a fun thought that some krogan might have just gotten lost on earth and the first contact was with some magic medieval french man who instantly said to himself "imma put the head of that thing above my fireplace"
    anyway thank you for your great video!! I got a huge amount of respect for the vorcha after I got to their home planet and for once actually took the time to read the planet information during Mass Effect 3

  • @Elarris700
    @Elarris700 Год назад +1

    Considering the Charon relay was dormant and encased in ice until humanity activated it in the 2100’s, I find #10 highly doubtful which is probably why it was cut. Otherwise that would mean that the council races were aware of humanity and made the choice to shut down the relay. That doesn’t sound like something they would ever do. If so wouldn’t they do something similar with the Yahg considering how badly first contact with them went?
