Forum:So who created the Catalyst?

Lets just forget the lameness of the writing in the end. But i never quite understood who created the catalyst? Was it the first organics or what?

Also, in my humble opinion, they should've made the "big secret" something way more huge. In the first Mass Effect where Soverign tells Shephard that he couldn't comprehend what they were (Reapers). You got a sense of a "larger than life plot" etc. But in the end it was so simple that Organics create Synthetics, which in the end will result in Synthetics killing all Organics, therefor a System must take effect, that kills of all advanced organic life before such a scenario could take place.

They could've played more on the "Something of which we cant comprehend"-angle.

Maybe that there's a bigger plot, and why nature/civilizations themselves tends to follow a pattern like that, maybe something that completely sets a questionmark of "WHAT is our universe?".

But again, WHO or WHAT created the Catalyst?
