I'm still bitter about Garrus's loyalty mission in Mass Effect 2. You kill tons of nameless mercenaries to get your target's location, then you find the target and suddenly killing for revenge is wrong.

You're not killing the mercenaries out of vengeance, you're killing them because they're trying to kill you first. They don't have to shoot at you, but they do because they're in the business of murdering for credits.

Killing Sidonis, on the other hand, is personal to Garrus. He's an unarmed, defenseless mark and the only reason to kill him is because Garrus wants vengeance for his betrayal. Even if you pile them all together and say "murder is bad, mmm'kay?" it's not the same at all because it's one thing to kill killers who are trying to kill you and something else entirely when it comes to killing someone who has completely surrendered and whose life/death matters a great deal to you.

You're the one attacking the person they're being paid to protect. That means you're the one forcing the fight.

so should shep let criminals run free if people protect them because nope, can't kill under any circumstances?

(Anonymous) 2016-05-21 10:41 am (UTC)(link)
But they're being paid by a criminal (and not one that Garrus and Shepard go after with murderous intent- they want to question Harkin, not kill him) and engaging in criminal activity all over the place. They're not a bunch of unarmed innocents. Also, you can even tell them to scram, I believe, in which case only a couple of die-hards and some mechs remain to protect Harkin.

And that's not even salient to the point I was making- vengeance isn't an issue against the mercs- they're just run of the mill baddies who aren't smart enough to run when Shepard gives them the chance. Sidonis, however, isn't a criminal. He's just someone who prioritized himself over other vigilantes and who is struggling with the aftermath of his decision. The only reason Garrus wants him dead is for vengeance. It's two totally different scenarios, emotionally and ethically.
