Mass Effect’s Illusive Organisation - Cerberus | FULL Mass Effect Lore & Origin Story 

Sounds cool I'll give it a look.

Cerberus as a name is burned they can't use it everybody hates them as an organization now. And I think through this everyone will have found a New respect for humanity

Yeah not exactly a shadow broker now tbh...more of a person that holds all the information which seems like a massive security problem.

Yeah she's not very good at it huh

To be fair, the galaxy is incredibly stupid to fall for it anyway. “Maybe I should go see LIARA, my friend/lover who is the HEAD of the LARGEST INFORMATION NETWORK in the GALAXY, running it from the SHADOWS” “Okay. While you’re at it, try to get in contact with the Shadow Broker, he’ll know what to do”

didn't even know where illusive man base was even tho former shadow broker knew how many smokes the illusive man smoked a day and how many buttons he had on his shirt ffs lmao

@@johnnyboogalo4897 Didn’t he purge most of the shadow brokers agents after he became indoctrinated?

I should have stated that Desolas is Sarens brother. But yeah I had no idea before I worked on this. Such a great backstory!

I would suggest Thomas Sowell’s Race and culture book- free audiobook on RU-vid. Technically the book ‘visions of the anointed’, and his ‘basic economics’ and ‘economic fallacies’ audiobook also on RU-vid work too I would also suggest Hazlit’s ‘basic economics in 1 lesson’ These give a idea as to how these effected their cultures in a sense. Basically being the most politically benefited races they receive the best support in most aspects over others. See the Turian’s dreadnought policy; for everyone 5 of the Turian’s other species can only have 1 of their own. The Asari have however a more natural superiority; the benefit of long term pleasures at the cost of short term ones is a benefit of their society partly due to their long life spans. The Salarians- frog people have short term pleasures and act the most to do as much as they can due to their competing culture; due to their short life span and generation length they often go to extremes to end wars- see the Krogan being uplifted to fight the Rachni and then the genophage. And then add in the life span and generation range there of (earliest start of family= new generation (2) + earliest start of new family member starting their own family = new generation(3) ) The longest war in humanity is the Hindu Holocaust in which the Muslims invaded India from 960 some to early 1700’s. It’s called a foreign name and is hard to find any actual naming of what it’s referred to as it lasted so long it’s like our war with North Korea- so little action happens between some high violent years before kicking up again.

Oh Hello There

@@WiseFish I figured they were related same surname and all

Too good*

Wow u noticed that to? Nice : )

@@maxpayne930 yeah me too. Acheron he say?

Fact, to me the best character in the series (and counting so many great characters there, that says a lot)

prepare for the reaper invasion=sabotaging the galaxy’s legitimate attempts to stop the reaper invasion at every possible turn because you think you know better and commit crimes against humanity in dozens of unethical human experimentation projects while claiming to be fighting for it

@@jfk8540 they're pretty much the definition of lawful evil, doing whatever they deem necessary to accomplish their goals regardless of what's required to do it. very much a "can't make an omelet without breaking eggs" sort of mentality.

"Looks like meats back on the menu boys!" Sorry, you reminded me of LoTR: The Two Towers.

It’s also where I learned she was barren and couldn’t online date to save her life.

Amused me that, with the good Admiral talking to someone brought back from the dead by Cerberus. Sure, in the end it didn't work out for The Illusive Man, but to say it never worked wasn't quite true either. The Collectors were beaten and humanity, depending on the chosen ending in ME3, saved.

@@captainhybrid4045 In Mass Effect 3 everyone portrayed him as an delusional villain with big ego. Out of all main characters, only Miranda and Shepard him/herself may believed in his true priorities (saving humanity). But like Shepard said about Saren in Mass Effect, whatever he thought and believed does not matter anymore, TIM became a threat that must be put down before he could do more damage.

@@maksymilianziele28 I was referring to subverting science never working for him. Though in Anderson's words regarding your Saren reference, true enough.

Never read that fanfiction is it any good? Heard it sucks major butt.

This is fanfiction, for anyone reading this in the future. It's not real.

@@labradude Actually, it's implied that Cerberus had a few agents who infiltrated the Andromeda Initiative, mainly so they could once more assert human dominance upon a new galaxy, resorting to beginning their usual immoral experiments [though due to the much more hostile surroundings, the Kett and/or the efforts of Pathfinder Ryder (Scott or Sara) these efforts would gain very little ground]. Not to mention the popular fan theory that the Initiative's mysterious "Benefactor" who saved the program from early financial ruin was actually a pre-indoctrinated Illusive Man, though that one's never been confirmed.

@@manofmercy1500 fanfiction not theory

It is fun to think about if Reapers exist in other galaxies. If the Andromeda initiative made it in a few hundred years, Reapers should have no problem getting to others.

Thanks for enjoying the channel man it means the world! Mass Effect is an incredible franchise!

@@WiseFish Of course and thank you for making this wonderful content, man! And yeah, ME is so awesome on every level! I'm so excited for the next game :)

Damn I did didn’t I? That’s annoying, but thanks for this. It’ll clear it up for anyone interested. But annoyed I forgot about that honestly

@@WiseFish No problem m8.. Your video was really well made and with all that information its understandable some details slipped through the cracks. Keep up the amazing work

@Crimson Fox paragon lost takes place before ME3

@Crimson Fox no worries. I wish they'd make more mass effect movies/TV shows. I think it could really catch on

Thank you so much man! Keep up the hard work on your end as well :)

The idea continues on

@@InvadeleYogurt The Illusive man did say that Cerberus was no simple organisation but an idea and no matter what we do....we can't destroy it.

Wow dude thanks so much that means the world!!

Yeah RU-vid has something against this guy for some reason. His vids hardly ever get recommended like they should.

Heart wrenching. TIM suffered and it broke him, leaving something jagged not caring what was cut to achieve his goals.

Damn 😢

We need more Cerberus.

Cerberus is the last hope of humanity, humanities guardian.

The neat part is, he won't, the starchild said that he already fell for the indoctrination, he only talk about it because the Reaper wanted him to, they want to make TIM think that he's still in control and that's about it

Yeah boy!! Enjoy :)

@@WiseFish Man I'm allready enjoying! Thank you Legend!

They felt more like an actually effective Team Rocket in Me3 imo

In game, Mass Effect comics/books and the lore wiki

They would probably make a game out of it. They made chess with flamethrowers, they are likely are able to make a pain plant into yahtzer or something

Yeah that’s the Greek pronunciation and the one it’s mean to be however I was just going by how NASA themselves call it as well as other astronomers. Why they say Sharon instead of the Greek Kharon I don’t know, I guess the words been westernised? Anyways glad you liked the video

Errr nope nothing to see here

He was indoctrinated. He was made to believe he could control them. And that the reapers were necessary. It's not bad writing. You can tell right from the start of the game he's not mentally right.

He was indoctrinated

@@MohamedRamadan-qi4hl That’s how they can justify the terrible writing.

@@Clarity_Control more like re-writing the bad ending in your head canon

I think Shepard is down to the player I don’t think they’re in the comics or books but could be wrong. That said the original creator said Shepard was always meant to be Female so I guess FemShep is the canon?

@@WiseFish Yeah I figure it would be something like that.

Play through the three games and focus on everything. There are moments in 2 and 3 which imply a canon in 1. There's a moment I have to replay through to remember the point in the series where I got the impression canon was male. An example of the point I'm making about quiet canon is when Joker asks if you'd like him to call the council to hang up on them for old time's sake. Even without ever disconnecting on them in ME1. So I figure there's a point at least in 1 where Shep is Renegade. Either with each report or by the last one, which I wouldn't blame Shep for.

Allow me to enlighten you as to why you’re wrong with one word. A name, actually: Jack(Subject Zero)

Tim looks cool. But I don't know about cerberus as a whole

You loyal legend!
