Canon Endings

[kuo]

I was thinking about what happened from G3-G4-G5, but why not for all the games?

 

Here's what I have, to the best of my knowledge. I would appreciate it if others add on.

G1:

- Factionless ending?

- Kill both Trajkov and Goettsch?

- Geneforge destroyed? (or maybe that's left to the Shaper Council)

 

G2:

I'm actually a bit confused on this one. So Easss dies, but is Drypeak purged, or do the secrets remain hidden? (because Ghaldring has to go to the Ashen Isles)

 

G3:

Yeah, still confused on this one too. Does Rahul die here, or later on? Pretty sure this is rebel victory though.

 

G4:

I thought the Unbound were finished at full power, and the vats remained undamaged, but there were just so many options. Kinda sad the PC in this game is kinda irrelevant/never mentioned again.

 

G5:

Some of the "canon" continuations are not quite a perfect fit for any of the endings you can receive in game. In broad strokes though:

 

In G1, destroying the Geneforge before anyone can use it appears to be the closest fit. (Note that there is no "factionless" ending in G1 unless you are referring to Trajkov and Goettsch -- as joining a servile faction has no effect on the ending in the first place.)

 

In G2, the (nearly identical) loyalist and non-aligned endings work fine.

 

In G3, it's probably the rebel ending (where you have killed Rahul) but both endings are honestly pretty similar in terms of what happens with the war.

 

In G4, the stalemate (Trakovite) ending is probably the closest. It's definitely not the Shaper ending though.

Geneforge 1, there isn't really an exact match, but I'd guess destroying the Geneforge with noone using it, and killing the leader of the Obeyers. GF2 states that "the Obeyers were wiped out", but in the closest ending of 1, they aren't. So the only thing I can think of is that the player is the one who killed them off.

 

Geneforge 2, either the unaligned or Zakary ending is canon. They both mostly fit with GF3's mentions of what happened in 2.

 

Geneforge 3 is by far the hardest to figure out; but if I had to guess, the player played Shaper until the Isle of Spears (so Khyryk is alive) and then killed Rahul. I haven't tested if this ending is even possible, but it's the only way I can think of for Khyryk to live in a mostly Rebel canon.

 

Geneforge 4, probably the stalemate ending, though the Rebel ending is close.

Bearfax, I have no idea why you've basically repeated virtually the exact content in the exact order of the post above yours and done it 2 weeks after the fact.

Right, sorry. At the time, I thought I brought enough new to the table, but in hindsight I can see why this might be considered plagiarism. I'll try not to do something like this again.

I don't mean it that way. Don't misunderstand what I'm saying. I just found it odd that you wrote what appears to be the same information after such a (relatively) long gap from the last post.

 

I'm not saying what people should and shouldn't be discussing in the forum.
