If there was any doubt before it has now become painfully obvious how they managed to lose their home world. I wonder if the Geth brings home slabs and pieces of biological creatures they've killed and test their weapons on them. And then stitch it all together and rig it up to a lightning rod. Not only is Shepard stealing poo poo from the Quarians she's selling it to Cerberus. How mean.

He actually doesn't say anything about the festivities going on, which is a missed opportunity (though we will kind of hear about it later). They were probably Heretic Geth, so it wouldn't matter anyway

In reference to your question about the Geth being AI. The individual geth programs are just VIs that network to get a higher level of intelligence. it isn't until they eat the reaper code in 3 that the individual geth programs become sentient.

At this point you just start to think "Maybe we should let the Quarians kill themselves" because they sure as poo poo don't seem to want to be saved. It's like the screamapillar from the Simpsons. I wouldn't be surprised if Quarians are also sexually attracted to laser fire and massive explosions.

 Going viral The Drink Geth My Name 1.5 oz gin 1 oz St. Germain 6 oz grapefruit juice Two ways to do this drink. Either mix in a shaker with ice and strain into a glass, or serve it on the rocks. It's a lovely hot weather drink. The Drinking Game Drink whenever we have a debate about rewrite vs blowing up. The Episode Legion's loyalty mission. Since we had to wait so long to pick Legion up you get it almost immediately. We find out why he was on the dead Reaper - to get a data core with Reaper code so they can prevent the heretic Geth from infecting everyone with a virus that would make them worship the Reapers. Considering how much trouble just a small number of Geth caused in ME1, having the entire population hostile would be very bad. Also brainwashing is bad except when we do it. The heretics are holed up in a space station so we head there to destroy the virus. Except once we get there Legion tells us we can haX0r it to rewrite the heretics into pulling their heads out of their asses. After shooting many robits and debating the merits of free will we decide to ignore free will and rewrite them. This comes up again in ME3, though it doesn't have a huge impact other than war assets. It can cause problems with the final resolution of the Quarian/Geth situation if you don't do other things, making peace impossible between the two and resulting in one of the more  ends to a storyline depending on who you side with. This officially marks the end of the mid-game and we're on the downhill to the finish line. We'll talk to everyone once before triggering The Event which gets us to the suicide mission. Expect the pace of episodes to pick up, as I'll be going to Europe for 3 weeks in August and want to have this wrapped up by then. Hold on to your liver(s)!

This was one of, if not the only, moral choice in these games that I actually grappled with. In the end, I decided that self-determination is more important and I blew those bots up. Still, the fact that both choices have valid reasons makes it actually interesting.

Next Update's Ingredients: Whiskey/whisky (I prefer bourbon - Wild Turkey 101) 7up

 Suicide hotline, please hold The Drink Suicide Mission Whiskey (as much as you can stand) 7Up In a pint glass, add whiskey over ice. Top off with 7up The Drinking Game A two-parter. First, drink everytime Joker says poo poo. Then, drink every time people get thrown around because of poor driving. It's called Suicide Mission for a reason, kids! Mine here has about 4 fingers of bourbon in it. The Episode Welp, we're finally here. After mediating a standoff between Legion and Tali we go pres butan and cause all sorts of poo poo to happen. Remember how we did every mission we could before doing the IFF? Well, this is why. Once you have done the IFF, you only get 2 more missions and then EDI announces you should take the stupid shuttle while they bugfix the tech we picked up. We take the shuttle and all hell breaks loose. Collectors board, the crew gets kidnapped, and EDI gets unhooked and is now free to destroy the galaxy if she chooses. In spite of being created by Cerberus, she functions well and is not homicidal. If you haven't done all your missions, you still can but bad things will happen later. How bad depends on how much loving around you do. Since we have played this game before, we head right through the relay. Our arrival does not go unnoticed and we get shot up some. If you didn't upgrade the shields, oops, Jack dies whether she's loyal or not. Didn't upgrade the shields? Kasumi dies (if you have her - if you don't then it goes Legion, Tali, Thane, Garrus, Zaeed, Grunt). While all this poo poo is going on we have to go down to the basement and deal with a large pest. I equipped the wrong heavy weapon which made this go on quite a bit longer than it should have. After the oculus is taken care of they send the giant turd ship after us. Should you decide not to upgrade the Normandy's weapons then you lose in this order: Thane, Garrus, Zaeed, Grunt, Jack, Samara/Morinth. Finally we crash land on the Collector base itself and ready ourselves to begin the final assault. I didn't mention it in the video, but the soundtrack here is fantastic. Probably the best music in the series. Who you assign to a job matters. A lot of people thought Thane and Zaeed would be good choices for the first 2 jobs, and ended up severely disappointed. Thane doesn't know fuckall about tech, and while Zaeed is an extreme badass, he's not a leader. The suicide mission is basically one big puzzle of figuring out who to assign to what duties. If anyone is disloyal, it will all go badly. It is possible to end up with no squadmates alive which results in Shepard dying permanently and for good this time and you can't import this particular save into 3 for obvious reasons. Deaths here carry over to 3, so if you poo poo it all up and forgot to do Garrus's loyalty mission there's a very good chance he won't be around in 3. Anyone killed in 2 is replaced by a generic character in 3 if they are plot important. We make our picks for the first part and get ready to enter the Collector base. We should be able to wrap up the game in 2 more episodes, then there is just DLC left. I may do the DLC's in longer episodes just to get them out the door faster.

Also, I noticed some of the dialogue cutting off, like at the end of this sentence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5rKcHxsmV8&t=1760s I don't remember it happening before but it seems a little frequent in this video.

As soon as Miranda put on the idiot hat and pushed everyone into the shuttle and left the ship completely defenseless I could see what was coming light years away. "Argh! You want me to go crawling through the ducts again." "I enjoy the sight of humans on their knees." my dad posted:Go to https://www.proxysite.com/youtube/, paste the LP video address to there, and pick the US1 server, it should work.  edit Oh, the space battle. Remember how in ME1 it was all epic with big fleets and Sovereign just  it's way straight through a Turian ship? Now it's just a few floating barrel things in an impossibly cluttered debris field (how does the massive collector ship go through all that at the entrance? If it can just plow through there would be less crap in that area). To add how non-epic it is you even take out one of the things on foot. And then you just watch the big bad collector ship anticlimactically go down in one hit. And naturally all the cinematics are unskippable. Boooring.
