It would be funny if Andromeda had it's own brand of Totally-Not-Reapers.

will you accept calamari as a substitute

Nah, that's about as unlikely as a Star Wars sequel/soft reboot featuring a planet-sized doomsday device, surrogate versions of every major character, and parallel versions of every significant event.

though... wait a second...

Its doomsday "stuff" will likely be connected to the Remnants...and that dangerous ,ancient tech will probably be wanted by the Archon so he can keep the galaxy under his thumb.

Also Rrrrreaper - Rrrrremnant??

Anyways,when I first read the leaks my first thought was "Remnants are Protheans! Calling it now!" and I am still holding out for a major plot twist related to the MW. If it's not Protheans, Remnants could be an ancient more advanced MW race who achieved intergalactic flight...Inusannon maybe?

First, you are comparing a movie with a game (an RPG at that) which is completely different media. Secondly, there is not much about the Skywalkers that can't be summed up with "Brat with too much power". There is no "soul" in a character that is either: stupid enough to turn evil and slaughter kids and feel bad about it years later or a kid that go out on an adventure with an old guy that look very "reliable" and win a war by "feeling it".

The fact that they are willing to invest years and money in a new Mass Effect game tell me more that your "no soul no soul!! Will sell bad." rant that is all you can say apparently.

And when did you become a prophet? Can you give me the winning lottery number while you are there and looking in to the future?

What about Asimov?
In Asimov's universe people eventually get tired of robots, and simply stop making them. This happens around the 32nd Century AD.

20+ millennia later (by the time the Foundation itself is a new Empire) there are still no robots. Except of course ... let's keep this a secret.

'Synthesis' or 'singularity' isn't even hinted at in Asimov. Actually, the earlier Foundation trilogy didn't even feature computers, since the first episodes started appearing in the early '40s. So it's a bit like the Fallout universe, with retro-atomic-futurism.

Always thought of singularity as the point when Asimov's three laws of robotics start to break down.

That would be:

I don't profess to be terribly knowledgeable about the works of Asimov but I think it's pretty well understood concept in sci-fi nowadays that a synthetic must violate the laws of robotics for a singularity to occur. It doesn't matter what causes the synthetic to surpass or overrule it's programming controls, the outcome is the same.

Its' inevitable


Without us to stop it, synthetics would destroy all organics


It is known  

That looks like a tripod.



I would totally accept those in Andromeda.

you just said it, checkmate

We already have harbinger so there is that. The archon dude is so collectorish it is funny, same animation, voice....
