*My Shepard finds Tali and Garrus togheter* Me: CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN ME THIS? *Meanwhile at Javik's room* Javik: I sense a great disturbance in the force, like someone wants to throw somebody out of the airlock....
bioware should make a new DLC,it should have the possibility of throwing things,crew members and everything on your mind out of the airlock....i would pay for that shit :)
Javik was written amazingly and all the interactions between him and the others were done really well. The concept of him being an instrument of war that was born and raised after the fall of his society was already in full swing and nearing completion explains a whole lot of his attitude. His final words were really nice too. You could tell, in his own way, that they all had a profound effect on him. I played full paragon and kept true to my choices and never had him touch the shard.
I never liked him. He's so rude, arrogant, obnoxious and ignorant. Almost as this tyrant on the ship. Most annoying squad mate ever in a BioWare game in my opinion. He's like Eugene from TWD or something with his weird intellect. Nobody disses my Liara like that, Javik got lucky he didn't get dropped on the floor for his words. They could of picked ANYONE else to be a squad mate than this narcissistic lying douchebag. Even most hated person Kai Leng would of been more interesting at least I would except something different and new probably would have been much better in combat as well. But no instead they set him up as a frustrating and anxiety inducing secondary villainous character who's loyal to TIM and Cerberus. Ugh. Vigil was a lot cooler to meet in ME1 only Prothean I respect. Better to just keep Prothy the Prothean frozen on Eden Prime if his personality and attitude is so rotten.
You know what I found hilarious? If you take Javik with you on the Geth flagship mission, Legion Prevents Javik from drifting into space as the ship blows up. It looks hilarious. Saved by a synthetic. Shameful display, Javik! XD
He senses memories in objects and people through touch, the ship has had a lot of companions so he needs to wash his hands to get the memories off in a way.
yeah, combining organic creatures with AI that can turn them into cyborgs... blending the two, by putting the AI in control of oyur bodily functions... synthetic and organic blending... bad idea...
@@urktheturtle2988 Why the label? At which point is synthetic life and organic life different? Sure, one may be created and the other born, but what if synthetics start making organic bodies to "upload" to? Once they start to replicate themselves? Then what?
In a way, this explains why synthesis is NOT the ideal choice. Javik explains that machines essentially integrated themselves with organics, turning them into a slave race. While this isn't synthesis EXACTLY, it demonstrates that machines and organics are inherently different--and that's precisely why they shouldn't integrate. While the catalyst has a reason to push for synthesis (it would integrate the reapers with all life, and therefore all organic data stored as the reapers with all life), the reapers are actually much like the race Javik speaks of: Organics turned into synthetics. The reapers were made to preserve life, but they did so by destroying it and storing it in reaper form. Leviathans created the reapers to prevent organic destruction by synthetics and essentially created a synthetic life form that destroyed all advanced societies for several cycles. The reapers ironically became exactly what they were created to prevent, but seemingly believed themselves superior to synthetics like the geth simply because they were both more advanced and integrated with organics. Synthesis is not the best option. DESTROY is the best option. The only hope is that advanced societies learn from the mistakes of the quarians.
Saren was indoctrinated, he didn't want to surrender, he was just following orders of the Reapers, who wanted him to activate the Citadel Relay so they'd invade us.
I think the main difference is that the core programming of SAM relies on a connection to a "pathfinder" specifically. SAM has no reason to try to assert control because if the pathfinder is then killed before transferring to another, the SAM loses their connection itself. Just like how the Natanus SAM ends up corrupted, which was a possible likely outcome that SAM knows to avoid for its own sake. I also think the SAM node requirement means SAM is also hesitant about attempting to obviously do anything. If a pathfinder starts going crazy and AI controlled in the field, the people at the ark can just dismantle the SAM node taking it offline.
I kind of have a love hate relationship with Javik. He's awesome and a good squadmate (substitute for Kaidan) but his attitude to EDI, Legion and well... nearly everyone kinda puts it off. Still he's one of the best characters in the series. It's good to see another who has had more experience (in battle and in choice) than Shepard ever will, Reapers and all. Wonder who would win... Shepard or Javik. I really liked him by the end though. Great shift from his original views. :D PROTHY FTW.
I think it's due to him being revived and acknowledging that the species that were in their primordial state when he was alive are in charge now and also being the last one of his people makes him feel bitter and resentful towards everyone as a consequence of loneliness and being thrown in a Galaxy very different from what he was used to. It's like elder people in RL, they were born and grew up in different times than the actual one and they feel a bit disoriented in certain situations or when having to do things differently (aka using smartphones, PC any thing that younger generations can use without problem and has a different mindset than theirs) like they were used or taught to. That's how I see why Javik reacts like this among the crew.
I wish there was a Renegade interrupt to punch Javik in the gut when he argued to throw Legion out the airlock. I'm a Paragon, but I'd punch Javik any day for saying that!
(The Krogan and Turian aboard the ship was just a fight waiting to happen) Javik: I appear to have solved that, Commander. Shepard: How? Javik: -points to airlock- The Airlock solves everything.
just about every species would choose submission over death. That was the whole point of Saren, to go for the former rather than the latter. The Reaper War would probably have ended a lot sooner if we could actually surrender. The reapers gave them a chance. Probably would have turned on them, but they were screwed either way with the Quarians attacking. May have gone for another few years or however long the cleanup would have taken as slaves rather than die off the bat.
In a bit of casual ship dialogue he mentioned needing to wash more often because of theProtheans' automatic "pheromone"-reading ability. Through that he finds out about all the ship's various inhabitants and moods-past and present, several different species. I guess it gets overwhelming and needs to be cleared, faintly like how the mouth accumulates food bits, tastes, smells, and bacteria until a brushing with toothpaste. (Morning breath, eugh.)
4) Consciousness and self-awareness define what is truly alive, and this consciousness can take forms unfamiliar and alien to us, like the geth. That makes them no less alive as a species, albeit one vastly, vastly different from our own and the typical "organic" being. So, the best way to look at it ( a rough analogy) is that the average geth (not Legion) is like a neuron, and its combined interaction with others, compounded over billions of geth results in a legitimate consciousness and life.
To me this is the most important convo of the whole 3 game series. And in general what the series is about. You find out why you are in shit that you are as a galaxy. And in that context I really can't understand the hate of the endings and how anyone can choose anything other than synthesis. Not to mention that it all ties into a very satisfying trope of 'it's more complicated' where you try to destroy the reapers for 3 games but then find out it won't work like that in the conversation with the catalyst. Truly an epic story that has no rival (in any media) in my mind.
This game, if you try and workout every scene, every path you can, it can be infinite. This game is, in my opinion, was created by a very intelligent man.
3) Its the interaction of these many individual components (individual "mobile platforms" as the geth refer to them as), superimposed and constantly in connection, that results in a larger consciousness that is the collective geth, which is a true intelligence, and a true life. The concept is similar to how individual neurons in your brain --while considered nonsentient -- are constantly in connection and form a larger, compounded, true, self-aware living being.
Clearly, you haven't watched the cut scene with Legion and Admiral Raan 'cause in that cut scene Raan says that the geth with the reaper upgrades are "fully evolved AIs". Legion's respond was that they have become as complex as organics, so theoretically they are alive.
Javik: "Throw it out the airlock." Shepard: "I've got a better idea, Javik. How about I throw _you_ out the airlock?" Javik: *Curls up in the corner and mumbles* "Primitives..." Shepard: *Walking away* "That's right, Javik. Cry like a little bitch."
Is it just me, or does this scene handle the organic/synthetic issue better than the Blue, Red, Green endings? Perhaps we should throw Starchild out of the airlock too.
After reading xeelee sequence i find the whole concept of organics and synthetics not being able to understand each other as silly bayronic life and dark matter being incomprehensible to one another though would be a thing
Funny, because he was supposed to be in the game, but EA decided "No! He is day one DLC, even though you programmed him to be in the game in the first place!!!"
