Original: 14 Years Later, the Coldest Quote in Sci-Fi Gaming Still Hits Hard

Gaming media are revisiting one of science-fiction gaming's most memorable lines, 14 years after it first appeared. The quote most often cited is Mordin Solus's dying words in Mass Effect 3 — 'Had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it wrong' — which fans continue to praise as one of the most emotionally devastating moments in the genre. Discussion centres on the scene's writing and the sacrifice of the fan-favourite salarian scientist.

Why now: Nostalgia and ongoing affection for Mass Effect 3's story keep fans debating its most iconic lines.
