After 4 pts I made a "short" summary so here it is. ๐
My top five:
- Scotch Ryder (never played as Sara so I can't tell yet) - He's cool. Gotta say I love the way he's trying to be serious but failing all the time. He's not Shepard we all know that but I can see some similarities there and great potential to become respected and natural leader with the drive to see the uknown and always pushing forward. I'd love to see his story continue especially when there's much more to discover.
- Drack the Destroyer - awesome grandpa krogan is probably the one I take on every mission with me. I love his banters with other crew members in nomad and calling everyone "kid" which almost feels like I've my own mentor telling me what's right and sharing his wisdom. If they decide to make a trilogy, I hope that old man makes it through. The best moment was when he invited Ryder to the Nexus and showed him Kesh's children and that was really nice to see as Ryder finally earned their trust. ๐บ
- Vetra - At first, she didn't seem much interesting to me but after second playthrough I realized there's a good reason for that. She's the type of character you gotta just figure out. Something I like the most about ME series is watching characters evolve and change over time and sometimes they can be quite mysterious before we get to know them. So I was chatting with her more and more trying to understand what she's been through and eventually grew to love her. I've a strong feeling she's gonna partially fill the empty space that Garrus left. Also, Sid's cool and I love watching her and Vetra argue.
- Jaal - He's almost like Javik. It was amazing to see his progress and how he became a friend to Ryder. I enjoyed every conversation with him and the way he was being honest with everyone and trying to learn everything that was new to him including jokes and idioms.
- Cora - My first romance option. It'd be good if she wasn't repeating "during my time as an asari huntress" all the time but that's just a minor problem. Since the beginning I wanted to find out who she really is and better understand her story. What I really like about her is that she eventually reveals her human side and her feelings. Besides, she's hot and I'd say even better than Ashley (and definitely not a space rasist ๐).
Other crew members:
BeeBee - My 2nd romance option, I like her temperament and craziness. Though sometimes she's getting on my nerves but I like the way she changed .Maybe she's gonna care less about herself and more about the crew. It's certainly not Liara but I can live with that especially when she's good at flirting and being funny. So I'm really curious to see what's next for her. BW - please remove that black smudge (I know there's a mod for that) and shrink her head more. I don't want to feel like I'm watching Guardians of the Galaxy. ๐
Kallo - It's good to have a salarian on board again. I like chatting with him and watching his fights with Gil and conversations with Suvi. It'd be nice to see him making more jokes because Joker casts a long shadow and I need a joking pilot again.
Gil - Crushing everyone in poker and making jokes that's the way I like it. Also, reading his poker logs's funny and provides better insight into how Ryder's crew spend their free time (I'd nice to see them actually playing). I like Gil more than Adams because he was too serious and not so funny.
Dr. DysLexi - It's a shame she's not a romance option so I hope that's gonna change one day. But as a person she's a proffesional not letting anyone in however, I feel there's more to her. In the end she's finally more relaxed so it's a perfect chance to open another bottle of Akantha with her. ๐
Suvi - Because I love science I love Suvi and her enthusiasm for that. That's why I'm enjoying every conversation with her and because she has a really nice personality. Definitely want her back for MEA2. I'd prefer her licking more rocks because Mordin'd approve.
LaCosta - Well, Liam's just Liam, trying to do some good but screwing up instead. I can understand that because nobody's perfect especially when being frustrated so I just fixed what he screwed up and tried to enjoy the moments when he supported Ryder and stood for him which was really helpful and much appreciated because Ryder certainly needed that kind of support for earning the respect of his team. So as others here said he's like Jacob in some ways.
SAM - I guess that SAM'll never replace EDI for me and somehow I still wasn't able to find something interesting about him (except telling me that temperature's in acceptable limits) though his attempts to make jokes are quite funny.
I can't really say I despise someone because I always find some way to like him or just accept him, although I have some exceptions ๐
Addison - A very annoying woman, after reading the 1st book I feel a little disappointed because
As VladVonCastein said - The Angry woman - I bet she's a Cylon agent. Needs to be terminated.
Morda - A primitive without constructive thinking. Let's drop a nuke on her head.
Tann - Unnecessary individual. Throw him out of the airlock. I also heard that salarian liver is best served raw and wonder what Drack'd say about that. ๐ฟ
Sloane - Helped Reyes 3 times and saved Sloane in my last pt but she's gonna die anyway. I can stand ungrateful fools but making me pay fees even after saving their lives.. Nope, not gonna happen.
Ok, now I'm happy. No, actually not yet, now I need a Quarian crew member and then I'll be happy. :eahigh_file:
Sam is cool, I do like how sincere he is to help you through the whole game. But he's no EDI, and on that note - we can never replace EDI โบ๏ธ

Sloane'll pay for that one day I wouldn't worry, which unfortunately won't solve that Reyes can double cross us again... Apparently, neither of them has utterly pure intentions, which might be a problem later on ๐
As for Drells and Quarians - it looks like they're bringing Batarians to MP https://twitter.com/masseffect/status/882282896492331008... If they just appear in MP without a single mention of Quarian Ark in SP I'm seriously gonna let my dog eat my favorite N7 cap... That just can't happen โน๏ธ

LOL Sloanne has already paid in all of my playthroughs. As for Reyes, have always sided with him as he has more potential... He seemed like a good candidate to be a representative of the benefactor or perhaps a noob version of Aria T'loak... Am looking forward to his character development.... With proper growth, he may be groomed to be the Illusive man of the Andromeda galaxy...
- 9 years agoFr0st223 - Hell Yeh, that's what I was thinking of regarding Reyes. He's got that smugg kind of look about him that the illusive man had. The illusive man of Andromeda - could very well happen. I did like his character, tho I think I'm the only person so far to actually admit that I also liked Sloane Kelly! The reason is that I can honestly say she cares about her people and she'd do anything to protect her outcasts, Yeh she's a * but that's just her way of coming across as confident and powerful.. I just didn't like her reaction to me saving her life! But, maybe she'll treat you better in the sequel. Perhaps that's when we'll see a different side to her?
- 9 years agoFr0st223 - watched the Twitter vid last nite, wow. That batarian looked bad *! Platinum is coming, thats frigan awesome. I'm wondering if this is the build up to some dlc arriving in August/September time regarding the Quarian race?? Either way we've finally got something from bioware that's exciting and positive โบ๏ธ so il take it
- Anonymous9 years ago
Well, I meant the situation when we save her and then regret it ๐ But it's not bothering me that much as Reyes's my ultimate choice. But I'm quite sure there's gonna be another chance to let her die or make her pay (if not dead already) because Reyes'll most likely return for a duel no. 2. And yep, he has a potential and it'll be fun to see his story continue however, we'll have to wait to find out whether we can really trust him or not because he's a Charlatan afterall. ๐
Yea, it's very good to see that something positive's finally happening. At least I've a good reason to play MP again and try the new stuff. As for SP, I strongly believe we'll see the Quarian Ark eventually because I wouldn't put all my resources into making assets like this especially when I've no intention to continue with adding new SP content so this is just another small thing on my list, which tells me that BW's not done yet though it might require a great deal of patience but at least it won't be rushed (I hope). I've to admit it's really weird in terms of ME's standarts that MP takes priority over SP but whatever. Right I now I'm grateful for anything they can give us. Also, tomorrow is MP stream + patch 1.09 news and I'm really looking forward to that and some new changes / fixes ๐
AND that's exactly the thing I love about ME series that main characters're always special and different. ๐

This is a bit of a trend in Mass Effect to introduce characters who go against their stereotypes. Wrex, for instance, is a progressive krogan who wants to break with tradition for the sake of survival. Garrus is a turian who lacks discipline and goes "off the book". Similarly Vetra,and Peebee are also in many ways unlike other members of their species.
I like Drack especially because he's a blend. The krogan hotheadedness is there, but he also possesses wisdom that's rare in krogan.
