Choose Wisely: The Search for the Truth Continues, now with Andromeda context.Kett + Remnant = Reape

Minor Spoilers for those who have not finished the game. Worth the read even if you don't believe a word - there is also the
entertainment factor.

Edited for clarity - this is not fanfic, it's a hypothesis.

I'll say it plain; The Kett ARE the Reapers - or at least they will be. Archon/Kett + remnant. Primus even states alludes to this in a datapad audio log during Dissension in the Ranks... you need to alter your perception. Use SAM how it was intended.

Andromeda is a journey into the past, not the future. It’s the story of how the Reapers come into being within the early Milky Way... and given it is the past; just an interactive story in which we are along for the ride, nothing we do here really matters. In the words of the Archon himself - I will control the remnant - it will be like you never came here... never even existed.

Hi everyone. I know it took me forever to re-join the forum after bioware close the original, but I've been pretty busy. I'm not even sure if anyone will even remember me, but I was one of the people investigating early IT - and although I felt aspects of it were viable; I also felt it didn't go far enough. It disintegrated into a search to prove specific versions of the theory or flat out self promotions rather than creating a unified search to find out what the hell was going on in the Mass Effect Universe.

Andromeda helps get us closer than ever to the answers of what is happening in the MEU - if your willing to dig a little past the face value narrative, which in the case of Andromeda is pretty absurd in all honesty. And that's coming from someone who loves the game and has played it 5 times already.

Synopsis:

Leviathan create an AI; the 'Intelligence' to protect organic life from itself 'preserve life at all costs'. The Intelligence create the Jardaan – the controllers? AI or VI possibly partially organic; the first synthesis? …and the Remnant; an army of pawns – which were sent out to scour the galaxy collecting physical data from organic life in the cosmos.

At the end of this flurry of activity that likely spanned millions of years, they returned with this organic data and began to construct a solution – or at least tried to present a solution to their creators. The first fully integrated organic/synthetic hybrid was born – intended to bridge the gap between synthetics and organics, and hopefully prevent genocide of individual organic species due to conflicts with AI that they may one day create...

We know them in the story of Andromeda as the Kett... Leviathan calls them the Reapers. Exultation is born.

But there is so much more... the original Kett created at this moment outside the scourge - we know them by another name... The Protheans... Despite Leviathan calling the Kett 'Reapers' from the start, the real Reapers come later; an amalgamation of Kett physiology and Remnant technology.

...and this is what the story of Andromeda is trying to show us.

You have no idea the potential of what may be coming in the Mass Effect Universe; and I mean after the Andromeda DLCs… How about they tell us the next part of the story it in a hybrid action adventure MMORPG - a ground war with the reapers once we defeat their key weapon; Indoctrination, and turn the harvest into a war... Add biannual single player installments similar to swtor? Something just different enough from the Mass Effect status quo that it can technically be called a new IP... Funny how things work out - that they would state a delay in the new IP at the same time as saying ME will be on ice for a while... I’m surprised Vigil’s music wasn’t playing for the ‘delay’ announcement.

We predicted this a long time ago, but ChooseWisely is a well kept secret. Read the google doc (linked above) to find out what may be happening with the Ryder's and Shepard.

Enjoy ~ Jennifer Wolf of the CW team.
