That was seriously the most stupid move he ever made. Tyrion should have been around him more often, to knock some sense into that guy.

He doesn't die in "Troy". He also doesn't die in "Ronin", where he is removed from the action before getting a chance to get killed. He also survived "Silent Hill", if I'm not totally mistaken.

No, but he dies in "Patriot Games", iirc. Also, if you're a good British actor, you have to learn how to die with dignity and awesomeness, because half of the time you're portrayed as the bad guy.
Originally posted by Stealth MooseI completed all the side quests in detroit and only 1 in Hensha but it was a solid week of gameplay. What choice did you make with Eliza? I mean I assumed you looked at them all with saves but what was your initial choice? That would make for an interesting discussion.
Replaying it for pacifist/foxiest of hounds. It's a lot more enjoyable to play through and notice the small details instead of being semi-rushed in the first playthrough. You really appreciate the subtlety a lot better.Also, playing without the CASIE aug is rough.

I personally felt McTaggert/Illuminati ending was the most logical one. This isn't surprising, considering I favored the Illuminati endings in the other two games as well. Sarif's was too undisciplined and "the end justifies the means", while Hugh Darrow's truthful ending would have simply reverted everyone back into the Dark Ages, which benefits no one. The last option of "Let God sort em out" really didn't impress me.

Lol, then there's nothing to debate because it's exactly what I did here and in the other games. Honestly though it seemed that Sarif's was as middle ground as it gets while Darrow's and Illuminati were opposite sides of the spectrum.
Also, did you wait until the credits roll? In for a surprise. Also, glad that Darrow introduced Daedalus, depending on how much convincing you were doing.

Don't get me wrong, I think human augmentation is a great idea. But Sarif's idea of relentless and mostly unrestricted augmentation is problematic. The way in which he dismisses the theft of DNA and the tragedies which occurred throughout made me think of him as far more callous and results-oriented than I had imagined. I wouldn't want a visionary like him changing the future of humanity.
Darrow was a narrow-minded fool, for all his brilliance. His "solution" was to basically fess up that he was an ******* and scare people into hating technology. It's like a throwback to Luminon Saman.
As much as I didn't care for Purity First, the idea of regulated augmentation makes a great deal of sense. 99% of the conflict in the game is from rapid augmentation further separating and stratifying society.

Yeah.

That evil *****.
Waiting for that DLC now.

Serving the Illuminati was far more logical than trying to merge with a previously unstable AI that was built by a maniac, or being a luddite and blanketing the world in darkness.

Again, this game was 100% in tune with continuity. They introduced Manderley, Icarus, Daedalus, and finally Bob Page and the introduction of Chimera virus..

Whats logical about continuing a system run by the corrupt dickbags that the Illuminati are comprised of? They're the morons who **** things up so badly in the first place.
And there was nothing wrong with Helios.
