So
they expended all of their resources to create the Reapers and the mass
effect relays to allow them to sweep the galaxy while creating as
little dark energy as possible. However they made the reapers too
powerful, and were unable to control them, and they too were harvested.
And then the Reapers did as they were programmed.
You now stand
at the controls, and examining them, you find that reapers collect the
sum of universal understanding from each race they harvest, and in its
memory a galaxy's knowledge 100 times over. Now you have to make a
choice.
Do you kill the AI core of the lead reaper? Doing so will
throw all Reapers into disarray. They will continue killing, but will
be so unorganized and without purpose that the glactic alliance will
defeat them... but at heavy cost of life. But you would have all of that
knowledge, and maybe you could find a solution to the dark energy
problem through it.
Or do you send out a self destruct order to
all Reapers. This would destroy all of them, including the one you are
in, but it would end the Reaper threat for good, and save many species
from extinction. But you would lose that collective knowledge, but maybe
all races, working together, can find a solution, just like you did for
the reapers.
Or finally, do you chose to implant humans as the
new "creators' of the reapers? It would make all reapers avoid killing
humans, but they would still harvest all other mass effect using
species. Humanity would survive though, and perhaps you could learn to
control the reapers in a way the creators failed to... or perhaps not. |
