it's so fashy

I've played these games so much so I have no illusions that they are mostly insane liberal propaganda but this always stood out as particularly vile

I occasionally look up the like full dialogue trees of conversations on youtube and anything remotely involving Batarians have like 75% just straight up fascist comments (like literally you see slightly modified quotes of actual fascists)

idk just kinda disheartening to see so many ppl just go fully along with it and have basically nobody be like "hey maybe don't"

ME1: Cerberus is some shadowy conspiratorial breakaway faction of the Alliance military that are doing insane experiments to create supersoldiers. They go so far as to kill an admiral to keep the secret.

ME2: Cerberus has made you, the hero of the Alliance military, into a supersoldier and also they have infinity money.

ME3: Cerberus can make anime real and also they have even more infinitier money.

Not just turn Shepard into a supersoldier, but fucking resurrect them from a hunk of charred meat first
