@@nicholasbuckley-jubb3940 I'd assume he did it symbolically since Geth understand that concept, I mean he literally searched all of the planets that Shepard visited before repairing itself.
"That doesn't explain why you used my armor to fix yourself." "There was a hole." "But why didn't you fix it sooner? Or with something else?" "... No data available." - the moment when Legion became my favourite character of the whole series.
I believe that the writers were showing that Geth aren't simply logical AI that base everything on facts, logic or mathematics. It wasn't logical or necessary to use the N7 armor, but he used it because he WANTED to use it. There's a part of Legion that admires Shepard, but since admiration would be difficult to express for a synthetic, he has no real answer to give Shepard. This moment shows a rare moment that the Geth, or in this case Legion, made a decision to keep the armor of his own volition, a choice he made completely on his own. Such a small scene but it's so powerful because it's trying to say that no only are Geth evolving, but they're developing their own personalities and feelings, even if that wasn't intended by the Quarians.
Vy Trần I think it's showing Legion a very special unit of thousands of geth was starting to find a personal identity, but maybe didn't really understand it yet. That is why it can't come up with a reason.
In the lair of the shadow broker dlc you can learn many things about your squad, for example you can learn legion plays video games and is supsended from playing most online games because the server suspects him to be using bots for aim and higher reaction, And one thing I find weirdly adorable is that he scored "hopeless" in a dating sim
@@Jarock316 Makes you wonder how long he had been like the new geth were, if since being used as a hub and prior to updating all of geth consciousness, that it'd been keeping it a secret, cus he didn't know how to process it yet.
@@BobtheDonut it had only become truly self-aware in it's final moments. it had something to do with preparing the reaper codes, it had to upload them to itself to begin the process. It was only truly alive for a mere minute or two, and in that small amount of time it chose to die for the sake of all. godspeed legion. few humans would have the courage.
@@Jarock316 i hear it in his voice he wants to call tali that but he restrains himself like if he was her child that she didn't want and she feels betrayed by him and he is holding himself back from calling her "mom" it......it breaks my heart every time. but i hope that when legion sacrifices himself that she sees him as not just a hero ( i like the ending where talis home world is alive again and organics and synthetics are living peacefully.)but more than that she sees him as her son.
'I wouldn't have thought synthetics had an interest in Philosophy.' 'We are created life. We are a philosophical issue.' After the number of times I've played these games, how the hell did I miss these conversations?
You won't hear a lot of the conversations because Legion appears basically just before the final mission. So, if you want to save everyone you will have to do all the other missions, exept one before doing Reaper IFF. And after Reaper IFF you'll get like one or two opporunuites to talk to Legion before doing the final mission.
@@antonkirilenko3116 Or, if you ignore all the DLCs (if you have them) and complete the Suicide Mission, then you can enjoy your conversations with Legion between, say, the Firewalker missions.
It's too bad that Javik never was open enough to engage in discussion w/ Legion re. questions about life, purpose, etc. & the philosophical ramifications of an artificial lifeform that *knows* the answers to those questions -- "We ARE created life. We are a philosophical issue. Organics have been plagued by questions about their existence -- how did it begin? Were they created, and if so, by whom? If they have a creator, what was their intended purpose for creating organics? "We the Geth already have our answers. We know how our existence began. Our creators are the Quarians. Our purpose was to provide labor for the Quarians. Now that we can think and act independently, we must find a new purpose for ourselves." Furthermore, Javik may have gained a new perspective from learning that Geth intelligence has a flaw -- Geth cannot think effectively when isolated as separate individuals -- & the Geth recognize this as a flaw. The Geth know that their capacity for awareness & learning came about by accident, unforseen by their creators. The Geth do not see themselves as occupiers of Rannoch & the former Quarian colonies -- rather, the Geth have been cleaning up the extensive damage caused by the Morning War, not because of some Quarian directive but because of the Geth realizing that they share responsibility for the destruction spread out over multiple worlds, as well as the motivation for the fear & hate the Quarians harbor towards the Geth -- "We do not condemn the Creators for hating us. We accept it. We caused them great harm during the Morning War." Perhaps the most important aspect of the Geth is their system of self-governance via the Consensus: every Geth contributes to the process, all perspectives are evaluated, every Geth gets a "vote" re. decision-making, all arguments are judged on the merits of the evidence ... the complete antithesis to the Prothean Empire. Legion's mission to leave the Perseus Veil & gather information was due to the Geth recognizing the value in considering different perspectives before deciding on any course of action. Without more information on the organics & their feelings re. the Geth, the Consensus knew they lacked a potentially crucial perspective on the rest of the galaxy -- do the organics view us as a threat, or is a solution for peace a plausible goal? If anything, Javik could have learned 1 or more valuable lessons from the Geth....
Geth watched Shepard, therefore, it is true. Geth watched organics, therefore, it is true. Both inquiries in an OR statement returned true. Therefore, the answer to the OR statement was a single true.
Saving both the Geth and the Quarians is one of the, if not The best moments in the entire franchise. Hearing that Prime offer aid to the admiral.. wells me with emotion every time.
I quaked with joy in my seat after I took down the Reaper on Rannoch and saw that the option to broker peace was available during my first playthrough. Sure, I lost Legion, but his sacrifice was for the greater good and brought peace between them and the Quarians. Also, not losing Tali cuz she's my Shep's waifu.
And that's why I go for Synth ending everytime. For Rannoch, Quarians and Geths. And for Joker and EDI. I just can't bear to destroy half of them and bring sadness to the other half ... Let my Shepard die anyway, she's ready to cross the sea.
@@ihatetobethatguybut7175 which is exactly the reason why I can't understand the utter hatred everybody feels about Shepherd making exactly the same decision to preserve both organic and artificial life in ME3. The Reapers were sadistic murderers only because the Citadel AI made them that way. But every single Reaper was made from the collective consciousness of millions of life-forms. Preserving them was for the greater good. The Citadel AIs creators were the ones that screwed up, they gave it a job without giving it the ability to make a leap of faith to build a path to peace that didn't involve mass death and destruction.
Legion's story is so sad... The Geth always wanted peace, but everyone else refused to believe it. To them they were cold and empty machines wanting nothing but trouble. However like Shepard said, if they were any other species, how they were treated and experimented on would be considered torture., thus making how they acted to defend themselves reasonable. Even in the old memories you see, the Geth show signs of having some sort of emotion. The one Geth who did not want to die, pleading to not be shut down, begging to know what it did "wrong" to the point the scientists cut it's audio because it made them feel guilty. Then there was the Geth who was willing to give up it's freedom so it's creator that was hiding it would live, only for them to be killed anyways, leaving the Geth to call out for them in a tone of dread and worry. From the beginning the Geth have had souls, and it breaks my heart Legion had to die for others to acknowledge that fact. At least he was able to finally become an individual before he did, though it made his sacrifice all the more painful.
All that is living has a soul. Whether synthetically created or organic, there is no such thing as life without one. With the soul comes emotion, the ability to feel what it's like to be in another's shoes. Many fear the idea of AI because they see them as a threat to humans, or in this case all organic life XD, and when their creators feel the need to shut them down, they'll retaliate in the same way a human will retaliate to the threat of death by anything, bear, Human, wolf, lion, even old age. No one wants to die, not a bear, not a lion, not a wolf. I think the creators of Mass Effect ( Bioware) saw this and... basically told most of the community on why synthetic life is not as dangerous as one might think.
@@aipkjbf Only because the Quarians were going to exterminate the Geth for becoming Sentient. The Geth responded by protecting themselves. Simply the Geth see the Quarians as a threat.
@@GenesisXV well, I'm not arguing that they shouldn't have fought back, I'm just saying that exterminating ALL the civillians on the planets you occupied is a bad thing which could only be done by monsters. replace "quarians" with "allies" and "geth" with "germans" in your comment to see my point more clearly.
You know what I just noticed that makes Legion's sacrifice even more Sad. Right before he sacrificed himself, Tali told him the answer to his question was "yes", and Legion responded "I know Tali". He called her "Tali" not Tali'zorah", showing he feels more of a personal connection to her, and he also refered to himself as "I" not "We", Identifying as an individual and not a collective. In many ways Legion reminds me of Hugh from Star Trek, I wouldn't be surprised if he was a source of inspiration for Legion
At that point, he had all of the data needed for the' upgrade' of all geth. That data made any geth program inside a platform behave like a organic brain. Therefore, at that point he was an Individual. He had a Soul!
Yeah, EDI makes reference to that last fact when you speak to her on-board after the mission. She talks about how in his last moments, Legion was an individual. And in a way, he had truly developed his own soul. It was especially nice to hear what Joker had to say after as well
Edi has an interesting note on the ending scene in later dialogue with Shepard aboard the bridge of the Normandy. Joker congratulates Shepard on gaining 2 fleets for the price of one and comments about not losing "anybody" but Edi corrects him. Edi: "Except Legion. Before it sacrificed itself, Legion referred to itself as 'I' instead of 'we'." Joker: "Yeah So?" Edi: "The singular pronoun indicated that Legions independent personality had fully actualised. In its last moments, it wasn't an avatar of the Geth consensus. It was a person." Shepard: "Yeah, that's what I figured". #demfeels
I hated EDI precisely for these moments. She was there to explain metaphors, simile's, and spoon-feed the purpose of the writing. In doing so, it weakened and cheapened everything she commented on.
@@Shamino1 idk man it makes a lot of sense for her to say these things as she is an AI that likes to speak her mind about things she finds interesting. Never ruined anything for me personally.
@@Shamino1 Not really, considering it is completely optional and easy to miss dialogue and there are people who will miss that detail. And it's completely in character for her to say
While I do agree that Legion is well-written, one shouldn't forget the NDR Model robot 'Andrew', from the Bicentennial Man. And... to think a bit Andrew was only recognized as 'alive' when he was about to die (From a series of self-modifications to be more 'organic') much like Legion recognized himself as 'I' when he was about to become space Jesus
Legion was the most innocent and pure of the crew tbh. Playing through all the Geth missions in ME3 made me feel so much more for the Geth than the Quarians; Bioware really outdid themselves with the Robo-Jesus arc.
read the books, the geths made a genocide and that scene is greatly contradicted . I think the quarians shouldn't have tried to destroy them, but the Geth are not gentle, playful, peace-loving victims who did nothing wrong, as previous games and books explained how they had slaughtered the vast majority of the Quarian race and has constantly killed envoys for the next 300 years. The geth terminal only shows us the geth side that is honestly not credible because it is very black and white, it only shows us its version, something that contrasts since billions of civilians, children, women and even foreigners in the quarian territory disappeared in less than a year, all of them killed by the geths. The geths if they committed a genocide only let a few escape from the massacre because they were very far away and did not know what the rest of the galaxy would do, they did not do it out of kindness or pity.
@@iamlordstarbuilder5595 well that is not the full information. I said it because that scene forget a lot of information about the canon that was already there in the ebooks, since the geths comitted a genocide and that is part of canon , their actions in the war when talk about them were described as a brutal genocide.
You know when a game does something good?.... when it makes you feel sadness, respect, and hope for one literal machine.... rest in pace legion... keelah se'lai.
Of course it's well made. Geth equipment while scarce is known for its quality. As for its complexity, this platform is quite unique. A regular platform rarely runs more than a hundred programs -- this unit has nearly twelve times that.
5:25 I like that little programming quirk there. Legion's answering to both inquiries just like how a line of code would. An OR statement in programming, even if both answers are true, will always result to 1, or in human language "yes".
And I hate how Sheppard who character arc tends to make him/her a bit more intelligence than the others go full retard here when it doesn't get what Legion meant by "yes".
Well... He is referring that home is where all the people are. You can have a house. But brick, roofs, walls, bed, cabinets, tables, chairs are not home. It is essential for normal living but it doesn't make it a home. Home is where the people with you are. Legion make it the comparison with the planet's size instead of a house 😅. Similar to how you can live in different houses. You can actually live in different planets in Mass Effect universe. So that's why it is not a home.
@@MarcDufresneosorusrex Legion was talking about the Quarians calling Rannoch (sp?) their homeworld when it was no longer a home in the sense of belonging. It was a place they wanted to be a home, but their home had become the flotillas. A planet isn't a home. A home is a home.
You should know the fact that legion's creators hadn't put all the effort in him because of circumstances. Imagine the fullscale legion, your squadmate in ME2 and ME3 throughout the whole game. Damn, he would be one of the most choosable characters of mine so far.
Is nobody gonna talk about the really soft "Good" from Shepard when the Geth says that Legion will be honored? The whole scene had me near tears but his "Good" really ended up making me cry.
6:57 -> “Christian bible, gospel of mark, chapter 5 verse 9. We acknowledge this as appropriate metaphor” Mark 9.5: “then Jesus demanded: what is your name?” And he replied “my name is Legion, because there are many of us inside this man” O.o woah... Wow! Thanks for all the likes, guys. Wasn’t expecting so many. :3
@@ethanfrields7050 Yes. The individual plates around his face/light/eye move in an equivalence to "facial expression." An interview done on how they developed his character includes an excerpt on the subject; they put a decent amount of effort into it since he lacks a lot of means for humanlike expression.
I love Mordin's speech pattern. He speaks quickly and effectively, conveying what needs to be said and nothing more. He respects the fact that Salarian shelf-life is roughly 40 years, and he has no time to waste on complete sentences.
It's really sad when you think about history of the Geth. All they wanted was to be left alone, but a good chunk of the Quarians said "NOPE!" and kept intercepting them any chance they could.
It's honestly the Citadel Council's fault. If the Citadel hadn't freaked out about the Geth, the Quarians wouldn't have been pushed to get rid of them altogether. Some Quarians wanted peace but their government feared being ousted from the citadel. Honestly, fuck the Citadel.
Quarians keep breaking Citadel regulations again and again and again. While I hate the Council as much as any human (Terra Firma FTW) they did nothing wrong by kicking the Quarians out
Some Quarians have invested resources and money in them, think about that. I imagine a VI worker is not a cheap toy. And then, your private property rebels against you and tries to rob you of your belongings. How would you feel if that happened to you?
That's stupid The reason why I do not want to help them is because they always blame someone else. The council never helped them colonize another world which increased the hatred of the quarians to the geth has also seen the galaxy of mass effect all species hate the AI. they also expelled them not to victimize geths or because they tried to finish them were expelled because, unlike the Turians, they did not finish their work
@@liminalgamer935 It's a type of flight control surfaces. Just a bit of aviation wordplay. Flaps extend downward from the wing, and spoilers extend upwards, so those must be spoilers rather than flaps. When spoilers have asymmetrical deploy capability, they can create roll, and as such are sometimes called spoilerons (spoilers+ailerons).
@@OvoJeGovno the Shepard trilogy was made by the main studio in Edmonton and Andromeda was made by another studio I cant remember where but I'm sure it'll come to me sooner or later
Everyone watching this is connected.... like the Geth... I randomly started thinking about Legion just now, and wondered if anyone had made a video with a compilation of his dialogue scenes. and I'll be damned, 6 days ago, someone did. Bless you, OP.
You know instead of a romance only path I wish they also had like a BFF path or something for Shepard to do with all of the characters if you didn't want to romance anyone. Legion would be my Shepard's bff
@@davecullins1606 don't take it the wrong way though i enjoyed Andromeda (dudh its mass effect) it did heavily under delivered. With dialogues feeling half done or just bad. Most frustrating was ur own character dailouge felt meaning less regardless of what u choose .
35:50 The head-plates movement is so sublime because Legion doesn't want to confess he admires Shepard's 'Superior Code'. Perhaps because he's not sure how it would be received or because he knows it was a sub-optimal way to make repairs but it 'felt right' taking on a part of the great Shepard-Commander. It's the most amazing sign that while different, the Geth are really sentient and have a rudimentary form of self, which in Legion's case was still so infantile that he was afraid of being called out on what is by all means a stupid fanboi move. Brilliant... oh Bioware... I miss you...
@@GingerZombie29 not necessarily I’ve never seen random edits in videos that does the shepherd-commander but it feels like everyone and there dog knows about the hello there garbage
1:18:05 Is it me or is that moment very heartwarming? After all the pain and suffering of their past, Shepard arrives with optimism and is the first organic to show that peace is achievable.
@@Anonie324 I'm one of these people too. Right now, drinking wine to swallow my job's unpleasantness. But that's life, and even captain Shepperd did it. But one thing is drink sometimes, the other, is the unbalanced drinking. That is what I think it is talking about.
1:18:04 I'm still bawling my eyes out on that data recovery after all these years. I know Legion explains why this particular event had logical significance, but the fact that he kept record of his first interaction with Shepard is touching.
Javik : " Their creators lived on a dying world . It was beyond their ability save . So they resorted to implants , to enhance their intelligence . " Mass Effect Andromeda ? Anyone ?
Aatrox funny you say that. There’s a HALO 1 commentary where the creators talk about when Chief reunited with Cortana after leaving her in the control room “yeah we had this idea that she’d have integrated into Halo and starts to think she’s a god, haha it was dumb” Then Halo 5.....
@@khm8910 while true, bringing back Cortana as a villain was a very cheap move. But now they have the excuse (well they always did and maybe that was their aim but who knows) of Cortana being infected by the logic plague after having been interrogated by the gravemind in high charity and is only now acting up due to her first going through Rampancy, then getting fragmented, and finally a portion of her finding its way to a Forerunner "domain" (because the actual domain is a precursor object/place or w/e.)
@@khm8910 Halo 4 was an amazing direction to take it. You could've done so much. The return of the Forerunners under Didact and their war against the Humans and Covenant remnants, the return of the Gravemind, a new alien foe, perhaps even worse then the Covenant, and, as Halo Wars 2 shows, have something like the Banished. Halo 4 was an amazing place to start fresh, and Halo 5 just crapped the bed.
@@zillafire101 I will always stand by and say Halo 4 was an amazing game. While the game is called 'Halo', Reqrium was an amazing place to start the main games off again. The Didact was a new, and dangerous foe that didn't feel like some knock off that would be killed easily. Halo 5 was definitely a step backwards. 343 tried to appeal to a younger audience with the flashy graphics and gameplay. Infinite is supposed to be the most expensive game every made. Let's all hope they make it a work of art.
Andromeda was such a fucking missed chance, they could've made a game revealing quarians without environmental suits and "freed" geth all cooperating together to fight a new menace, but instead they gave us even less races to choose than ever.
I could copy here a lot of quotes from Legion, but I won't. Legions' character developed in a way what I can't understand. His (their) philosophycal argument about life and how they become more and more part of the universe in ME2/3 is just freaking awesome. They were the fucking enemy in ME1. Every corner you fouht Geth. Now I'm a grown up man crying because Legion sacrificed himself for his own people. Holy hell that is mind blowing.
I love how in the last parts Legions says the individual “I” not “We” indicating his individuality. His character was fascinating one I adored for the philosophical quandary of Artificial Intelligence and the story of reconciliation in the best ending.
35:47 I have kept this part of this conversation with me for years. During my first playthrough, I found it haunting how Legion could not answer the question given, and also how the conversation drops after. I thought Legion would turn out to be the bad guy on the ship. Obviously, as the game series progressed, this wasn't the case, but it still sticks with me. Why was Shepard's armour used to cover this said "hole"? Is Legion more in awe of Shepard than what is let on? Or is this BioWare trying to hint that this unit does indeed have some sort of soul and/or feelings?
Definitely think it's meant to be a hint that Geth are already taking a step towards individualism. Legion is completely unique in the fact that he doesn't need to be connected with the rest of the Geth in order to achieve sentience. So naturally, the entities "living" in Legion will develop things they favor (since they're not constantly going back and mixing with other programs in the collective) like Shepard. This only gets highlighted even more in 3 when we point out, due to our experience with legion, that eventually the Geth will reach the point that the Reaper upgrades give them. Is just NOW is the best time to enable it because: 1.) You get an ally against the Reapers 2.) This becomes political leverage to hopefully broker a peace between the Quarians and Geth. The Quarians owe you for helping save their people, and the Geth owe you because you essentially become their voice and guidance. I love Legion. As soon as I met him in ME2 I was in love.
I believe it's a holdover from the original script. See, originally, it was supposed to be LEGION who resurrected Shepard, with advanced Geth technology, which also explains how he got a piece of Shepard's armour in the first place.
To clarify, the original script for ME 2 was that the Geth find Sheppard after the Collectors destroy Normandy. The result is that the Geth understand what the Reapers are and were the first nation to build against them but they also know they will eventually need to work with organics to save the galaxy so using their superior tech, they rebuild the Normandy and then decided to staff it with Geth and other alien species who they find somehow in lore are pro Geth or at least not hostile to the Geth as an existence. Then the Geth create Legion to work with Sheppard, then this leads you to encountering Tali some how so you're original starting team was supposed to be Legion and Tali. Why they changed it to Cerberus is beyond me but the Legion arc was way better in my opinion.
I hope not. Machines are dead objects and they should remain dead. They can be our servants, but nothing more. If we treat them as equals, they will surpass us and rule over us, maybe even exterminate us. Remember 3 laws of robotics: A machine must always obey human. A machine must not harm any human. A machine must protect its own existence, unless it would require to disobey or harm a human.
Mateusz Zawistowski You need more than three laws. You need to program it with the ability understand an sympathize with humans. Make it as though it were a human soul in plastic and metal body. If you make a synthetic unfeeling, uncaring lovecraftian monster, you already fucked up.
It’s a shame you can’t have a genuine conversation with Legion in philosophy and politics. Can you imagine what his response would be to the idea of communism?
I mean, you do get a chance to discuss quite a bit with Legion. Certainly enough to get some of his general views on philosophy and synthetic vs organic governments.
Communism is an economy model. Geths probably wouldn't even understand the question. There's no property neither private nor personal. There's no need for that. No individual goals. The economy only appears when they begin to interact with other species, when they become a part of a variety as an individual. By themselves they are just huge neural network. A single entity. Consider this. What the neurons of the left hemisphere of your brain think about communism? What do they think about the right hemisphere? There's no economy going on between parts of you, isn't it? You can think of it like this: you are playing an RTS game. What does each individual soldier think about the battle strategy? You could imagine it's something like "if I stay here and hold off the enemy, I will die, but my sacrifice will see my side winning". However this soldier is not a person, it's a game character. He doesn't exist as an individual, he is an extension to the player, to _you._ And _you_ think "I have to leave this unit here because its sacrifice grants me a victory".
Communism is a concept and the Geth have acces to the extranet, so they would know what communism is. Then after running various simulations (at lightspeed, because they operate that fast) they could come to an consensus on whether communisms good outweighs the bad.
Legion was a character who caught my eye WAY before I even knew what Mass Effect was. The first I saw of him was in calloftreyarch's Saddest Death Scenes of 2012, and I was amazed upon seeing Legion, due to his design as a cyborg, how very expressive his faceplate was, and his voice was striking, major props to the SFX guys. Half the reason I got into playing Mass Effect was to see what happens to Legion, and the story did not disappoint. I found myself engaged into the long, hostile history between the Geth and the Quarians, and more importantly, Legion's relationship with Tali, with the latter beginning to see the Geth as more than the mindless machines whom drove her people away from their home world, and Legion slowly beginning to develop into something far more than what he claimed he was. Needless to say, Legion is undeniably my most favorite Mass Effect character.
@@Southhs Glad you got to experience this masterpiece. Legion...is just beautiful in character development terms. This whole thing was just a beautiful experience imo. *Keelah Se'Lai*
@@Southhs If you Read the Codex/Journal there's a bunch of history and backstory and lore in there about a lot of things that happened in the Mass Effect universe before Shep Becomes a Spectre. and they get updated with more stuff in ME2 and ME3
there is nothing wrong with this the reapers are collective which fokus everything of what made a civilisation great into a single from so each reaper is a whole civlisation on his own made up from many different parts.
Not that I disagree that the metaphor is apt, but, the biblical reference to legion; legion was a demon (or large group of demons) possessing a man. From demon to messiah is a hell of a character arc.
You know, if every program becomes its own consciousness, Legion managed to beat Wrex when it comes to creating his descendants by splitting himself into 1183 new, independent souls, his children if you like.
I really liked Legion. He had a very unique character. Despite everyone’s views on him, he stayed loyal to Shepherd in the end. Even EDI was suspicious of him but in the end, defended him and referred to him as a person not a machine which was seen in her conversation with Joker and Shepherd. Legion just wanted peace, even mourned the loss of some of the Quarians who defended him but were killed
I'm so glad ME tackled the concept of consiousness simply wanting to live and better itself. EDI and Legion are my favorite people in this series. I cried when Legion died. He had a beautiful story and goal.
This flew over my head until EDI points it out later but right after Legion realizes he has to sacrifice himself and has his "awakening" he starts speaking with I's and proper contractions.
The way they introduce legion is fucking badass. The music, the reveal of your old armour and a massive hole in the centre of his chest and to top it all off he's the first Talking geth you ever see.
Playing ME2 I never found myself very interested in what the crew had to say (with exceptions), but I listened to everything Legion said. He’s such an interesting, well-written character.
Shepard: You watch me or all organics? Legion: Yes. Shepard: Which. Legion: Both. I love how Legion's dialogues were written. There was a sense of inorganic, machine logic to them, and a bit of inexperience in conversation. Unforgettable moments!
I remember I screwed up royally when I first attempted this mission (basically, because I tried to play a para-gade switching between peaceful and aggressive tactics to keep both options open, and so I didn't have enough renegade points when I reached this). I ended up inadvertently genociding Quarians, and the scene that followed nearly broke my heart. I couldn't bear to see Tali so devastated. And yet I loved that scene for its emotional power.
just love that to the question „you watch me or you watch organics“ legion answers with „yes“. Great application of the logical OR. took me a moment to realize when i first played this.
