    Mass Effect is an incredible achievement and probably the most complex and well realized SciFi universe out there. After recording my piano medley, I decided to do a stand-alone cover of An End, Once And For All, but substituted the dissonant ending of the original version with my ending from the medley.
    Ad Astra Per Aspera.

      @@atichatsai01 you need to see the part of conversation right before he says it. Shepard admits that they want to win this war with their honour in tact, which for Javik is pointless because a dead race that died with honour is still a dead race at the end. Preservation of race should be done no matter the cost and no matter the morality if it's necessary.

    • @lollekompolle
      @lollekompolle 3 ปีที่แล้ว +44

      @@atichatsai01 In short it means that the result justifies the means.
      To follow Javik on this you have to understand who Javik is. His people had aspects they were sort of raised into. A profession if you will but much deeper than that. An aspect is a personality. Javik was an aspect of revenge. When you are at the point where you think of revenge you already have suffered and experienced the feeling of great loss. He was born when his Homeworld and many of the Prothean Systems already lay in ruins. I assume this was also the first time aspects of revenge were even created. Because the Protheans never had suffered great loss before. Javik saw his entire people die and now knows that he is the last.
      They way Javik puts it to meaning is that we know ghosts cannot answer back. Also we know a trillion is a lot more than our species has members now. In fact 142 times as much. And even though we can't quite picture what this means exactly we totally get his point. And silence is the answer; meaning his species is dead and noone can even have an opinion on this anymore. Even if they had thought highly of honor in life they sure wouldn't do now.
      In the confusion of life one can easily lose track of the greater picture. And while honor seems to be a desirable trait to have it also means you have limited options. And if those options that you forbid yourself to take would mean the difference between ultimate defeat or ultimate victory then honor itself has lost its value for you. In the case of the war against the Reapers this is even more profound, as they are a machine intelligence. They sure know the concept of honor but they see no logical value in it so they wont ever go by honorable actions. If you want to win a war against such an opponent, you better don't limit yourself by honorable behavior.
      And the actual quote goes: "Stand in the ashes [...]." ;) Just saying.

      @@kangkudos1225 ME1 was the most immersive game I ever played when a character told me a story it felt like they was telling me the story to me in real life, so when I had just finished a mission I went down to talk to my homie wrex and garrus and I asked wrex about his personal life,friends and family he told me an emotional story about how he was betrayed by another clan leader who was actually his father! And he told me that he was the only survivor and had left but his family armor was locked up by a leader of one of the other clans so I went to their planet, killed them all and took his armor and he had told me that this really was his armor and called it a "piece of crap" but he was still incredibly grateful for what I had so when I got virmire I didn't tell Ashley to shoot him and just said that I would be careful and the first thing wrex said was "Look Shepard, you have done many things for me hell more than my whole family! But if Im going to help you, I need to know I'm doing the right thing and I said "we wouldn't be doing this otherwise." And he pulled his gun down and told me alright I will help you.
      But the thing I didn't know was that since I had helped wrex get his family armor he actually made the whole conversation much easier and I didn't even have to use any of my charm or intimidate options! So when I finally out about I was incredibly grateful that I had took the time to listen and talk to wrex and others like Garrus and Ashley!

    My best friend just finished a blind no spoiler playthrough of the Trilogy two days ago. The feels even when spectating throughout the run and for him in the driver's seat. Old school Bioware, games that make your companions and squadmates feel like real people and friends. In my opinion Kotor, Dragon Age, and Mass Effect most of all are the closest thing that can simulate what it's like to develop the "band of brothers" effect of bonds formed in combat, shoulder to shoulder with the soldiers beside you. So many moments that had me broken, so many that had me inspired, so many made me fall in love with the Normandy crew.

    Years later, this song is still one of my all time favorites from the Saga. harrowing, sad, yet hopeful. It really tugs at your heartstrings and evokes those wonderful and devastating moments from the entire trilogy.
    It is made even more memorable, because you know the story that's been almost a decade in the making and playing is coming to an end. You don't want the adventure, the story and the universe to end and yet it must and this is one of the absolute best swan songs for any series ever.
