 * As to the first point, I'm not sure what you mean. How is the rest of the fleet not affected by the same blast as the Normandy? Logically, Joker should be still above Earth with the rest of the "Victory Fleet".


 * As to the latter, I was really more concerned with the fact that we were given zero information as to what actually happened. The Citadel is the most important location in the Mass Effect universe, but all of it's denizens are gone in a flash, without any kind of explanation as to what happened? Vendetta's revelation that the Citadel was suddenly was an extremely convenient deus ex machina, and was far to abrupt. At the very least, I cutscene showing what happened would have been nice. I wouldn't have minded if Michael Hogan died, just as long as he died a heroic death. Maybe a scene of him helping the Council escape, before being killed by Reaper forces? Even better, they could have varying cutscenes depending on your CDF rating.

So much potential, wasted.
