So the ending of Mass Effect 3 I can deal with. But there’s just one thing I can’t quite get over. Red public telephone boxes. Really? I mean seriously? I get that they’re trying to convey that this is “London”. London, 1940 apparently. It’s hard enough to find one of these things in 2012, let alone in 2186. Why would there be red phone boxes when everyone has omnitools? Is this really the only thing Americans can think of to convey “London”? They may as well have had a team of rogueish but loveable cockney chimney-sweeps as part of the resistance. The only way I can justify this is that there was some bizarre retro architecture trend sweeping through London when the reapers invaded.
…
This was literally the only thing I was thinking about during the whole final chapter.
