Quality effect-the origin of the reaper, the reason of harvesting and the final result.

When I first went through the customs, I chose the green ending. At first glance, I think it's ok. On second thought, I feel cheated. This super DNA is bullshit for the following reasons:

1, inorganic life cannot be synthesized in the form of DNA, just as it is impossible to carve integrated circuits on DNA;

2. Even with this super DNA, it is impossible to instantly process the information of DNA to every life and cell in the whole galaxy;

3. If this is the case, "Qingtian Furnace" becomes an artifact, and the quality special effects of the whole series are not science fiction but myth;

4. Harvester is a combination of organic life and synthetic, and there is no reasonable explanation that the combination of organic and inorganic can solve the conflict between two different lives.

After thinking about all the pictures and the whole story of the trilogy, I think there are too many flaws in the three "endings" discussed online. I think it is very unlikely that the game creator will make many low-level mistakes unintentionally, because looking back at all the pictures and plots of the quality effect trilogy, every detail has been considered thoroughly, except for technical deficiencies. Therefore, it is impossible to make low-level mistakes in the most critical ending (for example, the armor on the slope of Shenbao is rotten, but the N7 armor is worn in the hidden survival animation. This armor is only worn by slopes, so the person hiding in the animation ruins must be him.

I analyzed it and the following is my reasoning process:

First of all, let's start with Hua's childhood voice:

1. He said that harvesting higher organic life is an act of saving and preserving this civilization. The way to do this is ((squeeze some people into juice, stab some people into puppets, or transform DNA into slave tools that only know obedience, or "civilize" them, use them, discard them, and destroy the rest)-the reaper does not show any behavior related to a civilization but only knows killing and harvesting-which is similar to carnivorous behavior. The body is transformed from the ingredients of food, and the metabolites are useless. The conqueror said to the conquered: I will either rule you or destroy you. I will take the land you cultivated for you and live in the house you built. There is no substantial difference between these two behaviors. What Xiong Haizi said is based on the logic of the law of the jungle, and the statement of preserving civilization is falsified.

2. He said that when organic life develops to a certain extent, inorganic life will inevitably develop and inorganic life will inevitably destroy organic life. According to Jess and Eddie, the root of the conflict between Jess and Quilleys is that Quilleys have been fighting Jess all the time. Jess is passive and never wants to completely destroy Quilleys. They can finally live in peace and cooperate with each other (depending on the choice of players, people can choose and reflect). The statement that inorganic life will inevitably destroy organic life is false, which is also based on the logic of hegemonists.

3, the three choices he gave, the first one is to control the reaper, which is very doubtful, because-the reaper doesn't behave like being controlled, but each individual has his own consciousness-the reaper can't control his conscious life, but can only use and strengthen his own psychology, and can only control puppets without individual consciousness, such as those zombies; If he can control the reaper-he used to be an organic life-it would be contradictory.

4. For the second option, see the first paragraph of this article.

5. The third option, doubt: how to destroy all synthetic intelligence, he did not explain; Since he can incarnate as a child in the dream of the slope, he also knows what Jess and Slope think, that is, he knows that Slope doesn't want Jess and Eddie to be destroyed, and he specifically mentioned this.

To sum up, what the voice said is either false or contradictory. Obviously, he stands on the strong side of the reaper, not on the side of human beings (including aliens), even Jess and Eddie, and considers for them. His purpose is to let Poe choose to control the choice. There must be a conspiracy.

Let's talk about the plot and the picture first:

1, the slope was swept to the ground by laser. When I woke up, I saw death leave. Only one soldier was killed by the top two. There must be fraud. At least, I should clean up the body and make sure that no one survived before leaving.

2. The man who bears a grudge was killed by one shot, which was not just a headshot. It was incredible, so it was probably just a hint.

3. The hidden animation of slope survival Slope wore armor with the word N7, but it was rotten when he went to Shenbao, and it was a big problem that he didn't die when he fell back from outer space. It's hard to imagine that the game creator would make such a low-level mistake.

After the fall of Normandy, there will be other soldiers besides clowns. They can't stay idle in the last battle (they were also seen on the front slope of the last mission), or even be the last team members to charge together. Moreover, it is also a coincidence that Normandy landed in a place where birds and flowers are like a paradise. If the combat power value is low, even the picture of teammates leaving the cabin can't be seen. -Same as above.

5. Judging from the plot, the fighting power value has nothing to do with the ending, because in any case, Poe will go to the fortress. If it's just to let players have different choices, isn't it as boring as the so-called kimchi game to kill monsters? . -There are only four ending pictures at most, and many problems inherited from one generation are not explained at all.-Judging from the excellent production and huge background of the whole three films, I believe the game creators will not end up like this.

6. At that time, Pross VI told us that the "Heavenly Furnace" was not created by them, but the crystallization of the wisdom of generations of harvesting civilization. Every generation has an opposition similar to an imaginary person, and there is a foreshadowing here.

7.Cyberrus's ability and technology surpass all other organizations, and its members are all human beings-in the context of games, human beings are not the best race intellectually, so there must be a back hill to provide powerful technology and resources.

8. The second generation of human harvesters is so different, because all the other harvesters we see are cockroach-shaped and look basically different in size.

Based on the above points 1, 2, 3, 4, it can be inferred that since the slope was awakened by laser scanning, it was an illusion, but an induced illusion, and it was probably a reaper.

Why do reapers deliberately create false images to induce slopes instead of killing them? Do you want to control yourself like an imaginary person? I think there are some clues in the first generation and the second generation. I've considered many possibilities, and the specific speculation is too complicated, so I won't list them. Everyone can't stand it. Just play my story version.

The reaper was originally an intelligent war machine invented by higher organic life in the war. I guess the inventor was at a disadvantage in the war, and he couldn't recover the defeat before making this crazy thing of death. The original harvester design is like this: powerful destructive power (but not modern form), with a perfect soldier's mental model as the intelligent structure, can self-organize and complete the task efficiently. You can also create new individuals yourself (using organisms as energy and raw materials for reproduction). In short, it is intelligent AI, just like training a group of biochemical soldiers to fight for themselves, but this is crazy, because the will to fight is instilled with pure rational AI and these machines are wrongly cultivated with enemy corpses, and the reapers will soon upgrade themselves (just like the modern giant cockroach form) and almost destroy all organic life. However, they are purely rational synthesis, knowing that this is not good for them. Therefore, they restricted the breeding and mechanization upgrading, gradually established the relay station of God Conservation and Quality, and created the harvesting rules. They only harvest advanced organic civilization in a cycle of 50 thousand years. On the one hand, advanced organic civilization is more suitable for harvesting, on the other hand, it restricts the development of civilization and makes it unable to compete with itself. As for where the reapers live and what they do at other times, it is not known. Maybe they have their own culture, or they are preparing to expand to other galaxies.

After many generations, a certain generation of civilization discovered the secrets of the treasure and the quality relay station or gained time, and began to study ways to destroy the reaper. Unfortunately, the time is too short, and this blueprint is distributed to every corner of the universe like a seed. Fortunately, the discovered civilization has been perfected and passed down, and the reapers have gradually discovered this secret, but they rely heavily on Shenbao and quality relay stations. In addition, he confidently believes that every harvest is very fast and there is no time to complete the construction of this blueprint, so he educated a group of people to act as the opposition every time they harvest and build the blueprint. With this insurance and countless easy gains, he confidently believes that it is impossible to be destroyed by those humans. However, they are obviously overconfident. After the wisdom and efforts of countless generations, the last generation of Rop immortal is a very powerful civilization, which took hundreds of years to harvest, so this blueprint was basically completed, but it failed because of the opposition's obstruction.

Then there is the era of the earth people. In the generation of Mass Effect, because of the discovery and efforts of the slope, the reaper's plot to control all the relay stations by using the fortress of God was destroyed. It was impossible to control all the relay stations by using the fortress of God, and it was only possible to rush to the Milky Way from a distance, but obviously it was too blind to its own ability and the front line was too long, trying to smash all the planets like lightning. They did have this ability, but they also wasted a lot of time, which paved the way for the later story: they stumbled upon the blueprint (Qingtian furnace), had time to build it, and had time to unite all the galactic forces to raid the reapers, thus finding an opportunity to destroy them.

Why do harvesters harvest organic life? Because extracting energy (power) from organisms or transforming organisms, especially higher organisms, has higher power efficiency, rich sources and simple harvesting. This is why we see that the process of harvesting is to turn people into pulp. The whole harvester is mechanical in structure and has no organic components, because it needs organic life as the energy core (according to the potential of power), but these are not enough. The complete reaper is just an empty shell or a monster like the second-generation human reaper (as for why the second-generation human reaper is human, it will be introduced later). It also needs a carefully selected organic individual's consciousness to be transformed and modified, shaped into the "brain" of the reaper, and then activated to form a new reaper.
