Things that are annoying

I'd also like to add; I always found the ME2 and 3 thing where you could only hack an AI or robotic if all shield and/or armor are down to be silly. I realize it was done for "balance" but still... how is a kinetic shield or physical armor going to stop electronic signals? lol

Small quibble, I know. I overthink. I answered my own question; it was for balance. Can't have some fights being TOO easy.

So shooting them with a gun takes down their software firewalls...?

Am I correct in thinking that the explanation for why the Reapers imprisoned Legion to use him as a signal booster is kind of weak? I know that he was given more advanced hardware than your typical geth platform so that he could operate on his own when tracking Shepard, but it seems unlikely that the Reapers couldn't build something that would serve the same purposes (and *wouldn't* turn around and undermine them at the first opportunity) on their own.

I guess the idea was to create a brief moment of uncertainty as to whether Legion could be trusted or was under Reaper control, while still making it fairly easy to guess that he was telling the truth. But they probably could have just had them discover Legion locked in a room on the dreadnought somewhere to similar effect. (This doesn't really bother me that much - I don't take the pseudoscience in most sci-fi too seriously - but I just got to that mission on my current playthrough and was wondering about it.)

Did Shepard have an omni-tool in ME1?  My Vanguard doesn't have one.

Infiltrator definitely had one for combat I believe. And the non tech classes can use their omni-tool if a tech ability is chosen for a bonus power.

Vanguards couldn't choose a bonus tech ability? Sorry, it's been a while

Ohhhhh, that's what dmc meant. Thanks for explaining

Ok then, I was thinking about the beginning of the game where each class has an opportunity to use an omni-tool animation. Deathscepter also helped steer me towards where bonus powers have nothing to do with it.

well i do consider them to be both in the tech classes and the biotic classes

The whole ending scene for that DLC was immensely biased (IMO). 


Everything we are shown about the Geth, and Mass Effect technology in general, points the universe being more grounded in reality when it comes to AI and hacking yet somehow, getting an autistic person to talk to robots requires torture porn levels of mad science and violation of patient ethics. 

It is rather funny how BioWare depicts that what is done to Dr. Archer's brother as horrific and evil, and yet views the Synthesis choice, which is the exact same situation except on a galactic scale, as the "optimal" outcome.
