for those saying that this vision explains how the reapers changed the protheans, i think your wrong.
Becuz it does not make sence if you think about it, the message was sent by the last survivors and there is no way that they could have know what happend to their ppl in detail. Or else the hologram would have explaind it.
The first time I watched the vision I shuddered. Creepy as hell. I always though it might mean the creation of the human reapers or more like the union of flesh and machine.
The vision is basicly a version of a advanced warning system, trying to warn the rest of the Prothean existance that the Reapers were going to destroy all advanced organic life. Its basicly their version of a air raid alarm?
I was over at a friend's house as he was playing this game. We were stoned off of our asses and when we watched this we practically had heart attacks. After the vision we sat staring at the screen, mouths wide, for several seconds. Our minds were completely blown.
I have got stange fellings that planets at the end of the vision got something to do with tali research on haelstrom , that dark mater may be key to destroy reapers
@Bachridon yeah, yeah, i played it a long time ago!!! yes u r right it tells u that when u get to collector ship first time...... u go into that ship that destroyed normandy sr1....
@srafic In case you haven't played Mass Effect 2, massive spoilers...
The Protheans were organically and cybernetically transformed into Collectors by the Reapers. So yes, the vision is of the Protheans being turned into Collectors. It has nothing to do with Husks. At all.
That's why they wait for the apex of each civilization. So they can take the most accomplished species and make a reaper version of it. Survival of the fittest
@SilentCip94 Well in mass effect 2 technically but they were turned into the collectors they were so genitcally rewritten that they only had 1 string of DNA left
I think EDI's Expalantion is a bit inacurrate. She said They made a prothean reaper and failed. Actually "Sovereign" has Failed, i dunno for another spec
@bagasooceanus do u think that they failed in the same way as when they treid to make a human reaper and commandre sheaperd showed them thay humanity isnt goingt down easy, i think the prothians , geneticaly or intervined with mankind so they could defeat the reapers hm?
@bagasooceanus ah so sovergien was a protheian reaper, very very interesting inded, but this all speculation, all i can say is commander shepard is going to kick the reapers right in their dirty bags!!! (... unless you made him die of course :/)
@underfire987 Already play 10 times and all my Shepard Receive No one left behind and all Solid Style Paragons. Turian Power : Orbital bombardment, Full Frontal Assault Salarian Power : Infiltration, Hacking, Asari Power : Mass biotic power. Krogan power : Strength and Durability Quarian power : mass Fleet Geth power ; Advanced Technology Rachni : Psychic, biotic, Acid power Human : Radical Power LOL guess with this we can kick their ass very soon
Oh I get it now, after playing Mass Effect 2. Mega-spoilers:
This is the process of turning the Protheans into the Collectors, with the cybernetics meshing with the organics. This is the experimentation that caused their transformation.
I thought that the beacon actualy showed what the reapers are (Organic and machine) And how they are becoming stronger with expirments of organics whic they stole from the protheans body.
So much of my Make.Reaper.Stronger.With.Organic.Flesh theory :P.
That means that the Protheans were aware of what was happening, interestingly enough. Which means that the hologram at the end of the first game were perhaps unaware of what the Reapers were doing.
@BumperSticker95 its more the destruction of the prothean empire, since the collectors were a key point in that it is shown but not as much as the machines slaughtering all organic life
@BumperSticker95 yeah thats what i thought as you get this vision in mass effect 2 on an uncharted planet but at the end you see a collector so it shows the end product :D
not trying to challenge your theory. i actually agree now that you've made sense of all this, but am i to understand that the Protheans were no longer organic after becoming Collectors? Or are they a hybrid of both, like the reapers?
@mysteriousssstranger They are definitely a hybrid of both. They find out that they're protheans because of their DNA, so they're partially organic, but most of the important things were replaced with technology.
Marcus Wright of Terminator 4, i guess... BTW his "syncronisation" with the Skynet looks so much ripped from Mass Effect visions, even sounds alike :D

no, my speculation but nto too sure
But i think Sovereign is Prothean-Reapers
EDI said The Reapers made a prothean reaper and failed. Actually "Sovereign" has Failed.
the meaning of failed in here just getting blurry, Failed creating human-reapers or failed doing the mission as the reapers.
