[QUOTE="WizarDru, post: 5130824, member: 151"] Ah, gotcha. Good points, all. I guess I just didn't care to think about it all that deeply. I didn't particularly see the need for the changes, per se...but they offered me enough of a justification to ignore it. I'd chalk some of that up to unreliable information. The Proteans are supposed to also [spoiler]BE DEAD.[/spoiler] It may have been too hard compared with the tons of much more easily availble sources elsewhere. Heck, for all we know, the Reapers may have been leaving deposits around to make sure we find them, like a farmer putting down fertilizer. :) Well, they do have explanations for a lot of that in game, including how the Justicar rationalizes it versus her code. Sure, there's more than a little hand-waving, like when I brought Legion onboard the Citadel (although I should point out that Anderson actually had an explanation for why people didn't freak at the sight of him when I asked). For a lot of stuff like this, they at least made the effort, even if it isn't necessarily 100% convincing. Well, they do go into extensive detail about the armor ship and stations have and the self-repairing nature of the nano-bots within them...which apparently require little to no power. More likely, they're just not worried about the damage inflicted by small-arms fire. Or, you know....phlebotinum. ;) [/QUOTE]
