        Humans don't breed nearly as rapidly, and statistically cannot emulate the krogran way of life because of a multitude of evolutionary and societal factors.

        Humans dont breed at a rate of 1000 kids per year per pairing.
        Humans dont have the blood rage, or a base, instinctual need for constant violence that almost every human desires to fight and kill.
        Humans didnt nuke their own culture and homeworld into oblivion, and even if they had they certainly wouldn't be fricking proud of it like the krogan are.
        Humans didnt declare an unprovoked war of genocide on the rest of the galaxy while dropping asteroids on colonies.

      The genopahge was so weirdly written to me. Like for example, quarians are called thieves or whatever, but you never any of them do anything actually illegal, hell, you don't even kill la single quarian in the game I think only Garrus does in a dossier. So they're obviously meant to be sympathetic. It's only in legion's memories the quarians are portrayed as more morally ambiguous.
      But the genophage? The way Mordin's loyalty mission is written it's clear paragon Shepard is meant to drag his ass for the moral ramifications of the genophage, like how Garru's mission has no conflict if Shepard isn't paragon and ok with him killing Sidonis instead of being his conscience.
      But the problem is Mordin repeatedly explains they DID take the social effect of the genophage into account and was their last resort. Shepard has neither the evidence nor the moral high ground to imply he's in the wrong, not to mention, every single krogan we've met except for Wrex is a complete brute.
      Why does the game expect me to act like the genophage was a war crime while also having a literal single power couple the only thing standing between a Krogan starting a renaissance instead of a second krogan rebellion?

        I think it's to make it a grey conflict instead of just a clear cut "this bad, you bad"? I mean sure, nearly sterilizing a whole fricking species sounds like the war crime to end all war crime, but would you think the same if you knew most members of this species are knuckle dragging neanderthals with a boner for war and genocide?

          The actual war crime was uplifting that warmongering species for the sole purpose of waging a war they had no stake in. Giving neanderthals nuclear warheads but then expecting them to put them down, and in the end handicapping the whole species for a thousand years so the grudge against other species became a constant in their life even after those events are long in the past, making it a self-perpetuating cycle of hatred. Genophage was supposed to be a deterrence weapon but after it was deployed nobody wanted to take the responsibility for the now toothless uplifted pets.

            This, the council basically just try to solve a immediate problem by introduce another long term problem. Like if the council actually care, they would just let the Genophage be a temperate punishment for the Krogan while try to uplift their culture to match their technological advancement. But instead they did nothing and let the resentment build up.

            Doesnt wrex straight up say that he doesn't really care about fixing the geno shit? If I recall he's the one who flatly tells you that most Krogan are mouth breathing morons who want to do nothing but fight

            Wrex said that there is no point in curing the Genophage as long as the Krogan don't change their way. Wrex entire character is that he got exiled because he is against his people old way of thinking(his dad to be more specific). By the time Shepard met him in Mass Effect 1, he already gave up that dream but Shepard encourage him to take up the task of changing the Krogan again.

        Did you miss the part where every reasons Mordin gave is just him coping with the effect of the Genophage. The Genophage is the best option AT THE MOMENT IT WAS DEPLOYED. However time changed and the council did nothing to address the problem or try to help the Krogan change, they just gave the problem a bandage.

        Because it is. Even if you agree with the reasons, it's still by all definition a genocide. What's worse, it's a genocide sanctioned by the entire galaxy. You say that Mordin took the social effect into account, but so what? Would you let some other species genocide you because they told you that they calculated that it's actually what's best for you?

    I definitely became less sympathetic to the Krogans when I learned that their normal breeding rate is 1000 spawn in a year and so by cutting their reproduction to 0.1% Mordin just made it so that they had one child a year. Before that I thought it was like one child in an entire community each year. But if a Krogan male and female could reproduce at the same rate as a Human couple then there was absolutely nothing stopping them from living fulfilling family lives even with the Genophage in effect.

    It wasn't a mistake. Krogan are worse than Rachni because at least Rachni attacked when provoked and indoctrinated. The only mistake here was lack of care after the genophage got deployed, the Krogan should've been culturally subverted or reverted back to peaceful dindu shamanistic tribes so in case the cure is ever needed the same scenario that led to it wouldn't have played out.

    Does anyone else feel like such a schizo playing Mass Effect? I really can't decide if I want to do Paragon or Renegade. I like my Shep being mean and aggressive and borderline psychotic, but I don't like choosing those option when in regular conversations or when talking with my companions. So the only time I go psycho is a few times with bad guys. It sucks because the morality system is so rigid that I'm getting points almost equally into both Paragon and Renegade but that means eventually I won't be able to pass skillchecks for either. Sad.

                Ignoring the fact that the fiction itself has a no-limits fallacy written into it that forces Synthesis as the only ending that actually solves the in-universe problems. The writers outright tell you that organics will always create synthetics, those synthetics will develop sentience and will eradicate their creators. The AI tells you this, the Leviathans tell you this, the Protheans tell you this, Javik even confirms all those statements are true by saying it has happened countless times without variation. So Mass Effect has a law written into its lore that states organic and synthetic life will eventually wipe each other out period. Destroy doesn't stop this problem. A few billion years down the line the galaxy will have new Reapers which will probably be even stronger. Control doesn't solve the problem. Same scenario as before, cycle will happen again and Reapshep will get BTFO by superior synthetics. Synthesis solves the core problem that the writers have posed. Organics cannot be wiped out by synthetics and vice versa if everything is both organic and synthetic as a baseline. Cycle is solved. It's lame that only one ending really changes anything because the writers forced this "but ackshually" catch 22 into the in-universe rules. Any argument other than synthesis can be shut down by a simple "but that doesn't change anything the cycle continues." That's my biggest gripe with the endings actually. The other 2 literally don't matter because the writers don't allow them to.

    Mordin switching up on the Genophage and the rest of the Genophage stuff is actually kind of based. The disease only affects pregnancies, where the Krogan babies die in the womb as stillbirths, but it's rare to have games these days admit that babies dying in the womb is a bad thing and shouldn't happen.

      I just played Mass Effect 1 and Saren mentions that Sovereign gave him some "improvements" and that the "union of flesh and machine" was peak evolution. He's indoctrinated, but he's telling us that the Synthesis Ending is the best. That makes it pretty obvious to me that Synthesis is not a good ending and probably just another way for the Reapers to eventually gain control, or maybe it's the final genocide and ultimate goal of the Reapers to eradicate all organics by turning them into part-machines. Destroy is the only good ending.

      Synthesis is the „good ending“ from the reapers point of view; they finally gives them a way to flawlessly integrate the unpredictable chaos of natural organic evolution (along with all the spontaneous technological developments this might spark) into their hivemind without needing to risk putting organics through a blender every 50k years.

      Except you missed the part that it says "It will take time".

      But Bioware can write it as whatever they want, and make it as inconsequential as they want.
      "Oh, you blew up the entire galaxy and all the Relays that connected everything? Eh, give or take 5 days, should be back up again". It's desperate and just reinforces how right we were to begin with, but whatever.

      All the lore from 2020 and 2021, and even 2022 all points to the COVID being 100% necessary and the best outcome above all. Why do people even try to cure it?

      Doing the genophage was right.
      Curing it was also right.

      It was necessary at the time of the war. But it no longer is anymore. It's a ductape that everyone refuse to change because it is too much of a hassle.

    I choose my decisions based on how much I like the character, if he a bro then we frick the hoe, the council can kiss my ass and frick the future of the galaxy, if the krogans are the apex of all species, then so be it, mad max shenanigans for ever.
    I'm completely arbitrary in my decisions, and I do not care.

    I think the genophage was right
    But I also want a Krogan to stuff me full of wiener and empty his quads into me, leaving me swollen and carrying the progeny of a virile warrior
    I'm conflicted

    >tells maelon that the genophage shouldn’t be cured “like this” in his loyalty mission
    How do peaceful miss the point of Mordin’s character so badly? It’s blatantly obvious that he feels guilty for what he had a part in, and wants a way to redeem himself. Everything he spouts off about the genophage being logical and necessary is true, since there really wasn’t any alternative aside from just wiping the Krogan out completely, but he still regrets it, and he’s trying to cope with it in his own way.

    O Blue Rose of Illium, if these humble words reach you, then I have joined my ancestors.
    My dream was to be by your side, a weed beside your beauty, twining together in the warm Tuchanka sun.
    But if my last days must be with krannt instead of kindness, still, I will remember the perfume of your scent and the soft touch of your petals.
    Let my broken bones build a wall around your garden, so you and the flower we planted together can grow safe and strong.
