Thanks. That last one seems odd. Xenophage would seem to indicate purging via sterilization. A more appropriate achievement name would be "to serve man"

Xenophage has nothing to do with purging or sterilization

 

[Ultimuh]

"to serve man" Should have been an achievement for having humans as livestock.
Kind of a missed opportunity there.

 

[Mauer]

It would be cool af to live in a black hole system, if a little unsettling.

Is that not what the Turians infected the Krogans with in Mass Effect to control their population?

No, that's the Genophage. Xenophage comes from the greek "Xeno" meaning alien, and "Phage" meaning eat.

Xeno in greek just means a general "foreigners", it meaning alien is obviously a modern ascribed meaning. or is it???

 

[melkor88]

I'm going for the Dyson Sphere achievement.

Well, alien hasn't always meant 'extraterrestrial,' that's a more modern conception. Alien does also mean 'foreign,' hence the term 'illegal alien.'
