In the Mass Effect games, the fate of the galaxy rests on the shoulders of Commander Shepard. But in a war that consumes countless billions, the story of a single hero can mask the darker implications and the true weight of the conflict.
This week on Acceptable Losses, we're pushing the "big hero" to the side and treating Commander Shepard as a myth. Instead, we are diving into the horror of the Reaper War from the perspective of the civilians, soldiers, and governments who fought and died on the front lines.
Join us as we recount the galaxy-defining conflict, starting from the first chilling silence as the Batarian Hegemony goes dark and the unstoppable horror that followed.
