I'm pretty sure just like real life, this isn't valid. A captain of a ship is still the captain, and they give the orders - just because civvy's volunteered doesn't change that - even on luxury cruises irl, if the Captain wants everybody in their cabins... well guess what... you're going to the cabin or you're getting arrested. If you go on fishing boat, guess who's in charge? Certainly not you because you're not military.
I did service for 2 years in my nation's navy, and we had civilians aboard one of our battleships for a tour and it was made very clear they were to obey the Captain, and were given rules like not to photograph our tech.
Sorry to take your thread off topic again, I just thought that was a false statement to justify Liam going over pathfinder's head when he should have never done so... and don't even get me started on his savage behavior on Habitat 7 - even if we saved people in the end - his actions put people in danger or were poor representations of humanity as a whole. Anyway, I'm not trying to bash - just sorting out an inconsistency with what you believe and what would be reality.
Well, the Tempest is not a military ship as far as I know. The lack of weaponry has been a point discussion here as well before.
However, even on civilian ships the captain has authority and from a team point of view Ryder is in charge no matter how you twist or turn it. So for him to go off and do something like he did, was not ok.
To each their own though. I think Cora annoys me more than any of the companions, but the main difference is that there is at least an emotion that's triggered. Liam's about as non-offensive as it gets, except that he doesn't like clothes that much and he gets himself in trouble because he bites off more than he can chew. I say that as an observation rather than a judgment and since it doesn't get the main mission in trouble it's of no consequence for me as I can just leave him on the ship except for his companion mission.
So if people like him that's cool, but I suppose I just don't really get what his redeeming qualities are.
