User blog comment:The Milkman/No Love For Leviathan?/@comment-4947725-20120918053701/@comment-5287758-20120918152348

The Leviathans aren't the typical galactic species with "expected" lifestyle. They are billions of years old "firstborn" "apex predators", completely mysterious and unknowable, like out of a fairy tale or a scary movie. We just do not understand them and maybe its better off that way, instead of trying to find an explanation for everything. Why they stayed in the oceans for millenia and not try to stop the cycle is a puzzle, we can speculate all day, but the fact remains, we don't know and possibly never will. So maybe we can stop trying to blame Bioware for bad writing and stuff and accept Leviathans for what they really are, the "eternal monsters from the deep".
