  • its not every 50000 years, its when ever civilization enters the citadel, it just took this long cause the keepers programming was rewritten.

    And yeah I've got some speculation but havnt played the game yet so feel free to smack me w/ some corrections. I saw a vid of the ending and Im 50% sure the illusive man is gonna be the new pawn of the reapers, why?? cause of how he looked at the ending and the fact that the reapers have an interest in the humans, human reaper is evidence.

  • @EsotericSanity Actually the game states that it is around every 50,000 years... So if the universe is about 13 billion years old and assuming the reapers started the cycle only a few million years after that... or came from outside the universe... they have possible reaped the universe nearly 260,000 times. *shocked*

  • @EsotericSanity :

    If you've played Mass Effect 2 and read the Mass Effect books you'll find out that the Illusive Man is not likely to be a pawn of the reapers. He's like a mix of Miranda en Shepard, a human (re)build for perfection, with cybernetic implants, the knowledge of the entire human race imprinted in his brains and he's probably the strongest human biotic alive. That's why he has those blue shiny eyes.

    Whatever his purpose may be, his destiny was already decided at his "birth".

  • i was thinking more of to save humanity like saren tried w/ his ppl. And the reapers think highly of the humans already to make a reaper version of humans, which usually takes place during the attack. and if hers so powerful, good enough of a reason there to fight him

  • @EsotericSanity:

    The Illusive Man thinks to high of himself and humanity to co-operate with the reapers. Besides, he spent over 40billion credits on reviving Shepard in order to stop The Collectors at all cost. It's obvious that The Illusive Man disagreed with the reapers using human lives to build a human reaper.

    Also, TIM wants to study the reaper technology to exploit their weaknesses and use their own technology against them.

    TIM is smart, he won't be the reaper's puppet like Saren was.

  • after playing through mass effect 2 you actually find out sovereigns real name.....

    Nazara........badass

  • @lordofudead well thats the name the geth gave am i correct. really good story.

  • @WillSmithy2567 no, the geth stated that the programs the reaper used to contact them were titles as nazara, but your not wrong on the good story, bloody brilliant

  • @lordofudead yeah thats what i ment man but over all good game and I hear the story of shepard will continue after mass effect 3

  • Urrr.. What?

  • they say saren calls him sovereign right? but in the first one he introduces himself as sovereign. O.o

  • Nazara, as in Nazareth, as in Jesus of Nazareth.

    The prophecy in Revelations says(Not a direct quote yet) That Jesus will return with the armies of heaven and defeat the Anti-Christ and his armies and they shall be cast into a lake of fire for all eternity.

    There is more to it but I will post a quote later on.

  • I hope an old one devours your mind and sends you to R'lyeh.

  • pretty-well explanation

  • Or *gasp* it could be a science fiction story! *smacks flavoade upside the head*

    Commander Shepard is a human who has the balls to go above and beyond the call of duty to survive.

    I don't think "God" would kill or as you put it, 'rapture' advanced civilizatons.. the second comming of jesus is just that, the -second- not every 10,000 years

    Many people in ledgends have died and risen from the dead.

    Go play Darksiders if you want to rant your religious babble, this is just a scifi game

  • You do not know what The Rapture is?

    I am not religious. God hates religion. Religion caused a few hundred people to drink poisoned Flavor-aid.

    They want you to believe that it is just a Sci-fi story, a harmless little video game for entertainment.

    This story is a lie that they want you to accept as truth, which you seem to have done.

    You can read Revelations in the Bible and see where all the elements of the story came from.

    But that would be to hard would it not?

  • Flavoade: Are you fucking kidding me? Are you making a joke? Are you just trolling and fooling us?

    You must me joking, right? Not a single sane fool would compare a sci-fi VIDEO-GAME to superstitious religious (bible) believes, let alone belief that a VIDEO-GAME would be some sort of prophecy about God and the anti-christ. :S

  • I am not trying to make a fool out of any one here. You and your brothers are doing that.

    I have gained wisdom and now I am sharing it with all that will listen. I knew before I decided to post this on the net I would get responses like yours, but I know their are many more who are not as blind as you are.

    This game is not a prophecy it is an instrument to teach the false-prophecy to those who do not know the truth, so they will accept it as "truth".

    The Halo series did the same thing.

  • @Flavoade

    Okay whatever Flavoade, whatever floats your boat. But can you please keep this bullshit to yourself then? We're not exactly waiting for a supesticious idiot like you spaming the comment section from this awesome video from an even better video-game trilogy.

    Let me ask you, have you even played Mass Effect 1 and 2? Because trust me, it doesn't fit your point of view at all.

  • @MortalLuc and Flavoade

    the reference to the end in Christianity was probably done on purpose by bioware, bioware are notorious at making great story games and a great story always has a little bit of "truth" im not saying that Christianity is true but bioware often reference names an idea's to their story, simply for the symbolic effect. take Thane (the drell) for example his name is based on a god of death and his last name Krios was a titans name. its symbolic and adds to the story

  • @lordofudead:

    You're right. Mass Effect contains a lof of sybolism, but it's not propaganda for any doctrine. The universe of Mass Effect is full of symbolism towards any religion you can think of. I've already seen Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism and Paganism passing by in Mass Effect. Ashley, the theistic soldier, Thane, the spiritual assassin and Legion, the philosopher geth who owes his name to the Christian bible.

  • thats pretty neat, i knew mass effect had references from many different things but such a broad spectrum of beliefs is pretty interesting, thanks for pointing it out.

    I was actually defending Flavoade who (in my opinion) was treated a little harshly for simply explaining Nazaras name in details.

  • @lordofudead:

    Flavoade wasn't just pointing out where he thinks the name 'Nazara' comes from, he obviously believes that Bioware intended to create anti-christian propaganda with Mass Effect, which is obviously far-fetched and plain retarded to belief. Like we already pointed out, Mass Effect embraces a lot of different faiths and beliefs in the games, non of them in a negative context.

    Makes you wonder who exactly has been drinking the flavor aid here...

  • Bio-Ware did not create this lie, they are pawns. Bio-Ware is no more responsible than Bungie is. They are projecting it however, and from listening to their diary on Mass Effect 2 they really love the story.

    Part of the lie is to make you think this it is just some silly game that means you no harm. This game is a form of brain-washing; conditioning your mind to accept this doctrine when the Anti-Christ rises to power.

    I can explain it if you would like.

  • It is one belief. A doctrine that will lead "hu"-manity into the "New Age." An age free from God, where man will become their own god.

    If Sovereign's real name is Nazara, then by my previous explanation Sovereign represented Jesus.

    Commander John Sheppard killed Jesus which stopped him from leading the armies of heaven (The Reapers) for the final battle.

    At the end of Mass Effect he also stood on top of Sovereign wreckage; a sign of triumph.

    This is no coincidence.

  • It is a satanic doctrine of the new age. It involves enlightenment and transformation.

    It is one doctrine that is being projected in almost all games, movies, and music.

    The Halo series was one of them. Your character was named John also. You were transformed into a super soldier, or "higher being." Your task was to fight The Covenant, and stop The Flood.

    Mass Effect 1 was about stopping the final judgment. Mass Effect 2 has you trying to stop The Rapture.

  • In KOTOR, your primary enemy was a guy named Darth Malak, who was your characters apprentice.

    Malak was an evil spirit that people threw their babies and children into a fire to appease.

    If Malak was your characters apprentice, what does that make your character in KOTOR?

  • I have played the games and read the books.

    I am telling you what the games story is actually about.

    You only see the story in the game. You have to look past the game to see the true story behind it.

  • You're an idiot.

  • What if their really was a such thing out there.

  • I think that the reapers are a part of the story, but not the main project. This story is about the struggle of life and mankind, and what decisions you make through the game will demonstrate your entire story on the concept.

  • dam reapers

  • do we fight repears in the 1st game?...what are they?...

  • the ship that sarren had was a reaper.

  • but in mass effect trailer..the repears appears right

  • Mass effect 2

  • is the whole trilogy about fighting the reapers?

  • god , their are one creepy race

  • nono your wrong reapers will come in the 3rd game. 1st game was opening, 2nd will be races of galaxies preparing for the enevitable and 3rd will be the epic conclution where if the reapers do come there is a 90% the game wont be a happy ending

  • lets hope we'll learn more from those awesome reapers when mass effect 2 comes...

  • Good vid.

  • your spelling is fucking awful. Vannashed??? REALLY????

  • They have eternity to get back to the galaxy. They could just start moving, or have had another auxiliary plan.

  • I do not now how Commander Shepard hopes to combat the entire Reaper fleet. Having said that without the vangard destroyed how will they come out of dark space and attack?

  • @domunication they might not be far away from the milky way galaxy so they dont need the citadel to get thee since anyways they dont die

  • tucho_bimbo @ hot....

    yohanna_pexoxa @...

    ballet_rabishkin @...

    These guys think that Mass Effect is a holy crap thing....could you help me to return them to the "stone age"?

  • Sorry, but this game is for legit owners, not pirates. We kill pirates, preferably with big guns, mad tech abilities, or biotics that rip their flesh apart or send them flying into walls. Just saying. :)

  • i prefere to just shoot them in the head. Is that bad?

  • No, just efficient. XD

  • you sound like a renegade :P

  • You spelled "Protheans" right, but not "vanished". Odd. Not too bad of a trailer, tho :)

  • lol you spelled a couple things wrong there dude.

  • Good job dude, btw ME is an awesome game XD

  • this is not an official trailer people... the protheans did NOT create them!! please play mass effect ONE before you start posting comments, some of you have no idea what you are talking about.... and yes it is every 50000 years.... it tells you all you need to know in the first game

  • i dont think it;'s every 50000 years

  • no the reapers annihilated the portheans and every organic civilisation in a 50000 years cicle before! the reapers where builded millions of years before the protheans appeared!

  • ive heard that the reapers wound not take part in ME2 they will be back in ME3!

    is that right?????

  • ya they come in the 3rd game but they still play a part in the second

  • the reaper are back in the second one for some strange reaon.

  • this made me even more excited for ME2, so much epicness  it ridiculous

  • serenity's video

  • Spell Check Needed lol

  • "Cannot...be stopped!"

  • And only one man???

    I play as FemShep...

  • Anderson is the only man, which is why he's talking while the text is on screen.

  • No you said "Only one man can stop them" but I play as a female... I was kidding around.

  • OK, now I'm not going to be an ass and point out some silly spelling errors, but you might wanna re-balance the voice versus the music. Preferably just turn the music down a notch or five.

  • Someone needs spellcheck lol

  • HAHAHA LOL, someone make this shit "Vannash" from youtube :D

  • y0u sp34k s0 l33tly!

  • Is anyone else mesmerized by Sovereigns voice?

  • completely, when i heard it first time in the game i turned up my sound to max. Its beyond awesome.

  • it sounds like that dude off jak and daxter, and the masters voice in fallout 1

    when i heard soveregns' voice i was like tranced in awe

  • Saren

  • And he sais ''Looms over the galaxy'' to seem smart or something.

  • it's says not sais

  • misteriously vannashed 0:45 LOL great spelling!

  • Not bad. I see where you're going with this. I hope in ME2 they reveal a little more about the Reapers.

  • Well since the first game ended in a cliff hanger with Shepard trying to find out more about them... yeah I suspect they will.

  • fgldgvsgf

  • Comment removed

  • ironic that the word intelligent is spelled wrong. dumbasses

  • half the stuff in this video is spelt wrong, the music at the planet bit near the end isn't loud enough. The video isn't great and don't label it in such a way people suspect it to be an actual trailer from Bioware.

  • Lol You Didn't make that video at the end it says: Created By: Zazwaz117. That's not your youtube-account/name N00B!! xD

  • FYI Zazwaz117 is my XBL Gamertag and online alias. If you look at all my other videos it also says Zazwaz117 in the credits.

  • ... xD damn... Epicfail for sure ^^ learn how to make videos

  • ironic how he spelled intelligent wrong...

  • ROFL

    inteligent life

  • you spelled *vannashed* wrong just sayin

    but great otherwise

  • oh sweet! an actual conversation about Mass Effect, damn i haven't seen one of these since like a year ago...damn- i thought i was the only fan left

  • who agrees that the only thing missing in this game is an attack on the Normandy

  • in ME1? yay but in ME2 one of the endings is you get blown to bits in the damn thing

  • We have no beginning i have no end ;p

  • I love how stupid he is... Have no beginning? OK........... So why you here?

    Not to mention he must suck at the hacking mini-game to fail to hack into the Citheadel.... yes spelt it wrong :(

  • ... who says god is a living beeing??? o.O

    Cause only those have an beginning and an end... You should stop gaming 'n stuff and get educated... -.^-

  • when you say:god is a living being ? are you quoting or makig a statement?

  • ...

  • well the Reapers cycle of destroying the galaxy began Trillions of years ago, where they built the Citadel and mass relays, then they vanished.

    i assume that some old reapers died eventually and they replaced them with new ones like Soveiregn, who may not actually have been told the Start of the Reapers.

    and a old prothean ai gave sheperd a program that will stop Soveirgn from hacking the citadel. at least for a short time.

  • @rednotdead500 Millions, not trillions.

  • @red244 By no beginning, he probably means no tangible beginning.

  • i love the voice of the sovereign it give me a epic feeling

  • Vannashed?

  • the guy who made this is cool i liked this

  • Ok, i wanna modify my comment. Even it's not the official vid of mass effect 2 is a lot of work to do that, and is a prove that you liked the game, so do i, and that is the most important point. Thanks for sharing your passion with us :).

    I HOPE MASS EFFECT 2 WILL BE AS GREAT AS THE FIRST!!!

  • at 1:05 you should have eet RICK ASTLEY show up ;DD (Perfect Rick Roll)

  • Man, I cant wait till the game comes out, Im gonna get it right away.

  • Wow, this has a hell of a lot of spelling errors.

  • sovereigns voice would've been better off without the text

  • Really guys, you should have known it was fake before you even clicked on it. Your inabilities to grasp the fact that this is obviously fake inspires me. I thought this was FINE. Not great. However, he should have worked on his spelling.

  • @elacruisay11 It's not fake, it's just fan-made.

  • Comment removed

  • Fucking crabs!

  • Can you spell worste Vidoe Evar!!!!!!!!!

    Whet is this kap!!

  • its spelt Vanished shit head

  • Lol way to make a bunch of ME 1 cut scenes into a movie and call it ME 2.

  • READ THE FUCKING DESCRIPTION OF THE FUCKING VIDEO BEFORE YOU GO APESHIT ON A COOL TRAILER.

    He even says it isn't official.

    Reading is important. It helps you.

  • He still called it ME 2 so he can suck my dick.

  • I don't think he'll take you up on that. . . .

    But if you read the description you wouldn't be so surprised >.>

    That's just being intelLigent. (two Ls, bud)

  • two L's in intelligent retard.

  • he's a jeanius

  • Am I the only one who lolled at that?

  • this is some bull shit

  • if ur gonna make a trailer you should learn how to spell first ;)

  • what a fucking view whore, next time put FAN MADE in the fucking title

  • it says fan made in the first line of the description, which is clearly visible when a lsit of videos is presented.

  • A fe thing I just want to point out. (dont get offended or anything)

    -The writing that describes the story should be put in more scarier writing.

    - you need to spellcheck.

    otherwise it was a pretty good effort.

  • Spellcheck much?

    Text = Boring, The use of Audio Elements was nice and well-placed, though.

  • nice... spelling...

  • seems to me like the mass effect 1 trailer....only that he added the 2 (but not in the end)

  • regardless of the quality of the video (i liked it tbh) but MASS EFFECT 2 IS GOING TO BLOW EVERY SOUL AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO ELSE CAN'T WAIT!?!?!?!?!!?!

  • reapers in mass effect 2 cool!

  • the game totally kicked ass but this video is kinda shitty........

  • Nice job spelling "inteligent" xD Just wanted to point out the irony. Lol

  • if its a mass effect 2 trailer then why does it say just mass effect a bit inconsistent

  • cool but spelling wtf

  • THE WORST FAN MADE TRAILER EVER!

  • Nah, it's far from the worst. I mean some make this look good, but it just isn't that good.

    Recycled scenes and poor sound quality, too much text applied in poor cinematic fashion. Not a bad effort, but not a good result.

  • Finaly some CONSTRUCTIVE critisism.

  • I think it's unfair to bash something blindly without saying WHAT you didn't like.

  • Exactly, if I make a video that people don't like I want to know what they don't like about it so I can change it. Sadly in this video I can't change the spelling errors as i seem to have accidentaly deleted the files for it.

  • Well the reason I didn't like this trailer is becaulse all it was is the vison shepard had from the beacons with some text slapped on that tells you the plot of Mass Effect 2...

    Could have been more creative. This is more like a fan made trailer for Mass Effect 1

  • Learn to spell!!

  • Does ne1 know if they are making a mass effect film? apparantly there's a bit of buzz around it wit hugh jackman set to play john sheperd?

    That would be a kick-ass film! Great plot, surprisingly deep nd well thought out for a game!

  • good job its like you got that from the first one OMG!!!

  • sry i say this but "Epic failed" nice try tho

  • WOST SPELLING EVER.

  • that was pretty bad ass

    great job!

  • This game makes a good point in reality machines would not have the same goals or desires as organic life

  • lol i just played the scene when i "chatted" with sovereign....fucked up o.o

  • yea, I wonder when Sovereign said that there are millions of them, does that mean that there are millions of Sovereigns somewhere in the dark space?

  • because he says " Our numbers will darken the skies"

  • he means it like.....on 300 when the fat dude says "our arrows will block out the sun!" .... but yeah they are in dark space..

  • Maybe even BIGGER reapers :P

    Or nanoreapers :P

  • oh fuck!

  • cockring

  • you spelled vanished wrong -.- obviously American

  • Generalistic much?

  • He also spelled mysteriously wrong.

  • AWESOME!!!! is this is what going to happen in 2012??

  • lol maybe haha but w may never know because we cannot space travel and shite like that so for all we know it maybe happening right now to some civilizations. The possibility's of what out in the galaxy is only limited by imagination and for those with out it, like me, have these sort of games to play

  • try early next year

  • There are 2 new videos of Mass Effect 2 that came out this friday!!! Look at them on my page!! Or the video responses on this video!!

  • Comment removed

  • i really like this video, but i think that mass effect 2 will be more about cerebrus and the shadow broker, whoever did the lunar mission will know what im talking about and both characters were mentioned a lot in ME 1

  • well, a new teaser came out for Mass Effect 2, and heres the shocking thing, IT SAYS THAT SHEPHARD WAS K.I.A. (kill in action) AND A GETH HAD HIS ARMOR! i am still in shoch

  • i meant *killed* in action

  • Well actually he had the Navy's Armor. We don't know if it's Shepard's.  I'm not entirely convinced that Shepard is dead, the Bioware team knows how much a lot of fans were looking forward to continuing as their old character. To kill Shepard now would be the biggest mistake they could make.

  • during the game i wore like 10 different armors, fuck that. they said theres character importation from me1 and they will keep this promise. remember they never actually said he/she is killed, they keep their holes shut while people get this trailer to their heads, in the end theyre gonna say "jus kiddn we got you good", its just clever marketing

  • Thats the vision shephard gets... not mass effect 2 but i like it :)

  • I wander since everyone knows now if they will find a alternate form of interstellar travel possibly worm holes or somthing like a hyper drive and possibly more advanced shielding that stops anything and more advanced weapons

  • I think the inspiration of The Reapers came from the Stanislaw Lem's -author of "Solaris".- novel "Invincible" about Mankind coming into contact with alien machines they cannot undestand. This theme of finding aliens whose reasoning are beyond human comprehension is very common in Lem's work.

  • no offence but you sound like an alien machine, although youre definitely not beyond m comprehension ;-)

  • lol

  • ummm i thing they are silicone based life from the begining and when organic life felt challenged they went 2 and the reapers won so every 500000years they kill organic life so there will never be another war .............thats why in the game the geth worship them as gods......

  • obviously fan-made, but very good nonetheless

  • its a game they can come from where they want it to they can make up their own begining, they dont have to go through the big bang theory

  • the way you spell "Vanished" proves this is a fake video
