Nonsense. The entirety of his speech there, as well as the Reaper you take down on Rannoch, are completely on point. They say their goals and motivations are beyond our understanding. They are completely correct.

Sorry, is this sarcasm? It has to be sarcasm.

Not at all! I read/saw the ending before playing the game, just saw the ending in context, and I'm not ashamed to admit that their entire scheme still is beyond my ken. My feeble mortal brain must simply be inadequate to the task of understanding the nuances of it all.

 

Speaking of, just beat the game. Context did not, in fact, make it even a little better. I'm going to guess that they ran out of time, money, interest, or all of the above, because it really is just a series of non-sequitirs. Ones which introduce gaping plot holes, no less. The funny part is that, given the circumstances, I would have preferred a KOTOR II-esque ending, since even a paragraph's worth of closure is better than nuttin'.

I only regret shooting that last Marauder. Or should I say that last Martyr. The entire time I thought he was my foe, when in fact he was just risking his life to save me from disappointment and apathy.
