This thing alters the genetic/synthetic makeup of every being in the galaxy, and it CAN'T differentiate between synthetic life? But isn't that what it does when you take control of the Reapers? You don't control EDI or the Geth, just the Reapers. But it isn't possible for the magical beam to tell the difference?They also added some further lines regarding the Destroy option not being able to discriminate. And I think more lines with all the other options to flesh out what happens more, prior to the choice being made.
They also changed the sequence at the first relay, making it look visually more different from what you see in Arrival, and so making it clear in game that the relays did not go WTFboom and wipe out entire systems. Plus they altered the firing scene so the Citadel looks far less destroyed.There was also mention of the Relays being severely damaged, not destroyed. As well as a rather blatant "We can rebuild everything that was destroyed" line.
I'd have to rewatch the Perfect Destroy ending, but IIRC there was something about the crucible being slightly damaged or something, which might've impacted performance.This thing alters the genetic/synthetic makeup of every being in the galaxy, and it CAN'T differentiate between synthetic life?

Sans the DeusExCitadel the war with the Reapers is not supposed to be winnable. ME3 writers wrote themselves into that corner and I think the Refusal option is an acceptable way out without sacrificing plausibility and relying on DeusExCitadel.So there is probably no way for the Reapers to be defeated conventionally. Which means the cycle will still continue no matter what, unless someone makes one of the three choices.
Nah, the tech disparity is too great, Reapers have cycles worth of experience and millennia to build-up their forces. Anything else than them curb-stomping and then mopping-up the galaxy would diminish the ending of ME1.If refusal resulted in victory based on war assets, that would be something.
Although clearly technologically superior to the Citadel forces, the Reapers have experienced casualties in the battles across the galaxy. This indicates that, theoretically, with the right intelligence, weapons, and strategy, the Reapers could be defeated.
Except that they tell us in ME2 that the Protheans were considered undesirable for Reaper conversion, and so they just got turned into the Collectors instead.I agree with Chuck that it's really silly that the reapers were able to clean up this cycle so late. Did they end up making dozens and dozens of reapers just from the Protheans? That could explain it. Maybe.
