Reyes Vidal - No longer A Mystery (Official Thread)

Reyes doesn't have horrible psoriasis on his face like Slain so he wins. Plus, he has torture chambers. A man with torture chambers is always a good friend to have.

The desire for romance are a part of the reason of this games unsuccessfulness (is that a word). All of the BW characters feel like their stories were written completely and that their romances were included. In mea character stories seems to have built after the romances

I'm just saying, a DLC set in Kadara would be great in my opinion.

Omega's problem was that it was more just a shooting gallery that you couldn't revisit, when really it would have been the perfect opportunity to reintroduce a second hub.

Absolutely, seems like a fun concept.

he is kinda a Han solo type as far as i am i the game. I like him too. He is not a good person as it seems but he has his charm as a character.
He is memorable.

Reyes must be a love/hate character. For me and the friends I have that played MEA his arc felt to forced and in your face. Not one I have any desire to pursue in a dlc or another MEA.

I just found Reyes came across as an absolute sleaze bag.

I would love a DLC where i can finish that piece of scum for good, instead of shooting him with a wimpy pistol that my character was not even carrying at that stage of the game (Black Widow, Ket Assault Rifle, Dhan with seeking plasma mod)

Chiming in along with those who really like the Kadara arc and Reyes in particular. Love him or hate him, he's certainly memorable.

They must have merged a different thread and at the time didn't want to get into spoilers. Yes I know some characters are forced and rushed in there story arcs whether a book or a game. I just disliked his character from the get go. Still have no desire to see him in any more content MEA related.

1B) How is using you not stopping at nothing? He kills anyone he thinks needs killing (sloane) without giving it a second thought.

Exactly, he THINKS he can do better, but he's nothing but another villain aiming for power. He uses the excuse of being better (which he's not) as a means to power. Which is ironic, considering he sets up sloane instead of a fair fight...
Dr Nakamoto... pshh, please. As if that guy wasn't in it for the drugs himself. he's just jelly that Sloane took it from him. And Reyes just helps the poor people so he has an army which stands behind him because they'd believe he's looking out for the little guy, while he's in fact just using them... And of course Sloane doesn't take care of the roekaar, she has nothing to gain. If she takes care of them, she'll lose people. And what does getting rid of them really solve? Nothing much. They have a common enemy: the kett. As long as the roekaar are killing kett, the status quo is maintained.

2) true, but she's not lying about it. If I were a leader of a band of mercs, I would only want people up to the job for it whcih I could trust as well. WHy in the blazes woudl I hire people I don't know? Whether that is just or not, she doesn't lie about it and tells it outright.
2B) Not to say she doesn't want power, but discipline is difficult to come by. You're stranded on a rock millions of lightyears away from home without resources. Everyone needs to contribute. 

Well IF she would decide you're worth more trouble than you're worth, she'd just cut ties with you, not kill you while you sleep.



In any case, this discussion just proves what a great arc that was And how people interpret everything differently. All in all hats off to the writers!

He kills her and she would have killed him, that's it.  He's not killing without a second thought. You know he could've taken out Sloane without Ryder's help. With them it's easier and also good for future AI relations but it wasn't like he needed the help or it wouldn't have worked out at all (except it's a game so everything waits for the player). I just don't see doing that = stopping at nothing.


Maybe he can do better, who knows. Being a better shot has nothing to do with being better at running a city. Why was she alone there? Because she's not a good leader, hence why he was able to turn her own people against her.


Really? You believe the asari "doctor" who's lying to you? And Nakamoto is also lying in his own diary then in case Ryder comes across it or what? That makes no sense to me.
Of course he's also helping them for good PR, guy who gives the food even says they should remember who fed them. Doesn't negate the fact they are helped. And if you want to take over a city, making sure there are fewer poor is a good thing.
She has nothing to gain by eliminating the Roekaar? They are killing people in the city (even some of her Outcasts), the city she is supposed to protect. They are killing angara who also run the water filter system. Ignoring such a problem is part of her downfall. The Roekaar are not there to kill the kett, sure should they come across them they do but they want Kadara Port back. Oh, btw the kett which she claims she has eradicated but lo and behold, some are left but of course this is kept quiet for PR. Very honest.


I would hire people who are up to the job. Sure vet them, I would too, that's common sense but if you hire them only on the basis that you know them, no matter if they are good at what they do, that's stupid and not just because she doesn't give everyone the same chance.


Discipline with drugs and beatings then. Very nice. Contribution is important but not like this. And most of the money and if you choose her the imports are going to her crew.


Would she? Or maybe she would kill you with a point blank shot in your face.



Gifs are great.


Yes, hm, I think I'll explore this scene with the flycam. Maybe Umi does something.

I have a save right before the party starts.
