You should read the book.
Um i haven't even seen the word "mass effect" on this forum in over 3 weeks and i haven't played the game in over 2 months. this has nothing to do with it.
Precursors are completely different and far more advance than the reapers.
Huh? forerunners have no relation to the protheans whatsoever, especially in this thread. are you trolling?
This is nothing like mass effect, please read the damn books

According to you, the Precursors are Reapers, the Forerunner are Prothean and Humanity is the Galactic Universe at the time of the Mass Effect games. Your theory, minus some minute differences is a replica of the story in Mass Effect.That means very little considering Star Craft did the exact same thing (Precursors=Xel'Naga, Humans=Humans, Forerunner=Protoss, Zerg=Flood). I'd be somewhat perplexed if three separate studios (all of which have had a large amount of success) developed the same general storyline all within a few years of each other (talk about "same -blam!-; different wrapper").
Grey, I won't say this isn't possible but because this sort of storyline would be so blatantly obvious, it would be an insult if they did follow through with it. I like to make fun of 343 as much as the next guy, but they would deserve all of my criticism and much more if they decided that this was the path they were going to take.
Yea that's what I'm getting at we get the same story too much. While I see too what you're saying about Starcraft I think the Mass Effect analogy is slightly better because Forerunner willed their knowledge to humanity just like the Prothean did to the succeeding galactic community. I'm not trolling but I've seen what the OP is proposing already. I guess it's kinda hard to come up with something completely original but I'd like to see something fresher.
