This got me thinking, as an asperger person, Our mind is something nobody can’t understand, we don’t think the same way people do, we know everything sometimes, but we are speechless, we can’t stand for ourselves, we can’t talk, but not because we don’t want to, but because we don’t know how to, people think they should pity on us, feel bad, but we don’t need that, we just want to be accepted, we don’t want to be understanded, we want to be free from our silence.. David is an example, he is not being abused because of hate, but by love a love with pity from his own brother, who believe he is doing something greater for him, that his condition as autistic will not stop him from achieving his full potential.. he sees him as an asset, not as a human or person, something that happens even today
Ответить"Square root of 912.04 is 30.2...it all seemed harmless..."
ОтветитьFor some unknown reason this soundtrack struck something in my soul. This whole mission makes me tear up and rescueing David in Archer academy gets me. Every. Damn. Time.
ОтветитьIt all seemed harmless...
ОтветитьGuns. Lots of guns.
ОтветитьI have a youner sis, she has autism. Hell, i saved David every time. Even when i played as renegade
ОтветитьJust imagine if AI today were made this way.
"People love sausage but don't want to learn how it's made"
If you think about it, the robots with green infections attacking are basically david lashing out onto others in excruciating pain. Fucked up dlc
Ответить“Hello commander… I’ve been counting.”
“Anything in particular?”
“The number of days you extended my life.”
definitely would have been the best mission in ME2… if it weren’t for that vehicle section.
ОтветитьI never experienced this masterpiece in the original mass effect 2. I could never afford it. I got a decent job and they shortly after announced the legendary edition and knew I could finally experience some of the best Bioware has to offer. I had heard that this was a notoriously messed up DLC but I never understood why until I finally got to play it in legendary edition. I'm still emotionally recovering from this and his cameo in ME3. I was so excited to see what all the hype was about, it all seemed harmless...
Ответитьwow, it's the same song as the God of war 3 remastered trailer!
ОтветитьME2 was an amazing game
ОтветитьHere’s some dialogue for the squad members I came up with:
Jacob: How the hell can you sleep at night, knowing what you were planning to do?
Miranda: I knew Cerberus was researching the Geth heavily, but this is….far beyond anything I had expected.
Mordin: Too many people like you. Always justifying. Always rationalizing. Always hurting.
Garrus: I can’t even imagine doing this to my sister. I would die before letting that happen, let alone be the one to do it to her.
Zaeed: You messed with something you didn’t understand, and now your god damned brother has to pay for it.
Grunt: Strapping your own kin to some torture machine for a science experiment? If you were a Krogan, I would rip you apart.
Tali: Some Quarians say they would do anything to see their home-world, but if they could see this, I hope they would reconsider that statement.
Thane: A painful life has taught me that family is one of the most important things a person could have, and you threw it away like it was nothing.
Samara: I hunter my daughter for centuries, and even in my darkest moments, I would never condemn her to this.
Jack: Good old Cerberus. Always willing to sacrifice others “for the greater good”. Take a good look, this is exactly what happens when you do something “for the greater good.”
Kasumi: This experiment was horrendous enough already, but your own brother? Can you even look yourself in the mirror?
Legion: You have forced your brother to uplink into a world he could not possibly hope to comprehend. Probability of permanent mental damage: 97.76%
I think my mission as the savior of vrchat just got 5000 times harder
ОтветитьSome of humanity are far worse than the reapers.
We must be better.
Not gonna lie even as a renegade I still couldn't choose the renegade option. This also made me have a different view on humanity
Ответить"Who gave you the right to play god?"
ОтветитьI literally played this missiom for the first time just a week ago with the Legendary edition... I thought that Legions sacrifice was the most influential game moment I haf ever come across, but never played this gem for a DLC. I was so wrong, the storytelling and reveal of the conclusion is second to none. So glad I did a second play through, this mission alone was worth it.
ОтветитьThe first time you play this, when the shield shatters and you see the state of David for the first time. When this theme fades in as Shepard looks at David in abject horror and shock. Absolutely haunting.
ОтветитьThis moment turned what felt like a boring DLC, just going from place to place completing objectives, into something I will never forgot. It just catches you off guard, thr horror of it all, what Cerberus is willing to do to advance humanity, and from what I have seen even the most, if not all, hard-core Renegade Players saved David. As it should be.
ОтветитьAlways love this DLC, the first time I tried it my only goal was to destroy the AI, since it kept trying to kill me.
Then when you get to the point where you discover what is really happening and that he is just trying to ask for help, sad but beautiful DLC.
I love this character so much, I made my Ryder look like him and I pretend that’s actually the David from the DLC. I just want him to be happy 💚 I wish Shepard could have adopted him.
ОтветитьEDI: "He looks much healthier"
David: "The Normandy Computer. Sorry!"
"It all seemed harmless..."
ОтветитьIt all seemed harmless
ОтветитьOne of the most rage inducing parts is Gavin trying to justify what he did
Gavin: he may recover some semblance of his mind
Me: THATS YOUE BROTHER!!
One of the first times I saw an autistic character and didn't react by cringing. His tragic situation was born out of the manipulation of his own brother, his flesh and blood ripped from him to become an organic computer. But seeing that with some care, he may be redeemed is wonderful.
ОтветитьIn the end, this mission wasn't a mission about defeating a rogue AI, it was about rescuing someone.
ОтветитьAnd before you know it, you were running your own private hell.
ОтветитьIt all seemed harmless.
ОтветитьI made a full renegade shepherd on a recent play through but despite this I just couldn't leave David with Cerberus, it was one of the rare paragon options I did.
ОтветитьThe horror and disgust from Shepard is something that seems unique to this moment in particular. Shepard expects this level of cruelty from the Reapers, since they are literally machines designed to harvest humans, so that's why he/she doesn't have this kind of reaction when he sees it. But this shakes him/her, because it's not coming from a machine designed to kill, or some sort of space monster. This suffering was caused entirely by another person, who was readily willing to hurt his own family to satisfy his ambition. Shepard didn't expect that amount of willing cruelty from another person.
ОтветитьI don't know why, but hearing stories about big brothers hurting their little siblings always chokes me up. Sure, I had some fights and disagreements with my little brother and sister, but in the end I always saw myself as their protector. When my brother was outnumbered in a school fight, I'd jump in the fray. When my sister was heartbroken over something, we'd bake a cake or watch a movie together. That's what big brothers should be. Not petty tyrants.
ОтветитьJust heard this theme playing on a monkey documentary 🤣 instantly recognised it as Mass Effect
Ответитьthe square root of 906.01 is...
ОтветитьThis DLC legit made me ugly cry. It was so heartbreaking that he'd abuse his brother like that. :(
ОтветитьOverlord DLC:
Dr. Archer: If my work can save a million mothers from mourning a million sons, my conscience will rest easy.
Shepard: So you'd sacrifice your brother's happiness for your own ambition!?
Arrival DLC:
Admiral Hackett: There were over three-hundred thousand Batarians in that system...all dead.
Shepard: They died to save trillions of lives!
Bro....I just played through this dlc in the legendary edition. My god it's emotional
Ответить"Some of the worst things imaginable were done with the best intentions " no line fits this DLC better than this one.
ОтветитьThe two times I’ve seen David both made me cry. Dunno why
Ответить30.1 ...
ОтветитьThis fucking track... I always tear up when I hear it.
ОтветитьFirst time I actually choked up. Poor David.
ОтветитьThe square root of 906.01 equals
ОтветитьI like to say that there are no right or wrong in science, but that made rethink that thought
Ответить"I saw his memories -- he begged you not to do this!"
ОтветитьMy cousin is autistic and I can't stand to think about any harm coming to him. Poor David...
Ответитьwhen you reunite with David in ME3 and this song comes back, that hits so hard
ОтветитьAs someone with Autism myself I really felt for David.
