That's exactly the feeling I'm getting from the endings (other than Refusal, that one was awesome; punished for not actually making a hard choice). The endings originally were "Sophies Choice', where there was always a severe implied consequence. The Synthesis ending I can grudgingly be okay with, since I'll presume…

What's funny is these guys complained so much that they were convinced that they were 90% of everyone who played this game to the end...

That's nice...

Soooo, you missed a few side missions, then?

Oh silly, these are just the OFFICIALLY reported labs. You may not be all that safer there, just say'n ;p

You do realize that playing multiplayer or an app isn't necessary to get a high enough readiness rating, right? I'm guessing you bulldozed through the game and ignored the side missions?

Um, forgive me, since this is probably an instance of the obnoxious male in me speaking... but that actually seems commendably impressive...

Thus you have highlighted one of the plot points of the series; their ends do not justify the means. Regardless of their intent, their means of accomplishing their belief that organics should be preserved are faulted. This is why you are offered a choice to either impose your control over the reapers, negate the…

I was just informed, and confirmed with a quick check that you were right about white rice having a germ and being processed, my apologies.

Ah, thought white rice was only husked, and naturally had a low or no germ to it. I guess I mis-interpreted the Japanese rice harvesting process when I had read about it. I retract my statement then ;p

Oh, and that "reduces" in that second line should be "increases nutrient density, sorry. ^^;

A bowl full of veggies can also leave a person lethargic and inactive. Vegetables do not contain much in the way of carbs, and your body actually adapts to the carb intake it recieves. It's not like a car that can run full speed until it runs out of gas. I would suggest making it half and half, half white rice and…

The Inuit also had tens of thousands of years of adaptation on the side of their diet. I wouldn't recommend people who are not a part of a culture like that to make the same attempt, as while you may not become overweight from it, other issues like thrombosis, hypertension, and gout can occur.

Heck, let's not even talk about South America. There's a whole region in the Eastern Hemisphere (China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Philippines, India...) who's diets have been stapled with white rice, and it wasn't until the increasing introduction of the Western diet that over-wieght and obesity started to become a…

Spices tend to encourage the gastronomic process of the body just by the smell alone, so to them, logic would dictate that refraining from seasoning food would not overstimulate the gastronomic process, and the would be able to comfortable endure the meal they were eating without requiring larger portions. Of course,…

It's not just rich people who are gullible. My Dad's girlfriend does this, and seems to relish challenging the knowledge I have with what her doctor told her...

White rice is a whole grain, actually. I think you're referring to the higher fiber content in some other grains, right? Keep in mind that while brown rice may have more fiber in it and reduces the nutrient density, since glucose is your body's primary and preferred energy source (an the only energy source your…

No, it was not the end. In fact, the only ones who share the perspective of the Reapers 'killing' the organics were the organics being killed, not the Reapers. This seems to be a problem a lot of people tend to have, is deciding the motivation of the antagonist only through the protagonists' perspective.

Correct that they are trying to save organics by killing them, but killing them is not the end, just the means. The issue, which was even pointed out by Commander Shepard if you went renegade, is that they are essentially trying to preserve organics like a giant museum piece. Their goal isn't wiping out organics so…

Actually, it would be more like taking the sperm of billions of guys, and then developing them into one being to *preserve* the human race. There was nothing akin to 'saving' about it, rather more like taxidermy. And your sperm still only contains your individual genetic code...
