Most Punchable Character?

So the replay value increases if you had an impulse option to punch out Liam (and possibly other characters) during the post Meridian party?

I wanted to punch Peebee when she tricked my Ryder into to the volcano.

Also:

• Spender
• Morda
• "Andromeda's first murderer"
• Annoying woman who blamed Alec Ryder for everything
• Dr Aden

I'd say Kalinda too, but there's the option to go full Renegade on her, so it's fine as it is.

Speaking of Andromeda's first murderer... I totally face palmed when he said "I didn't kill him, so let me go!"

You know, attempted murder is still a crime.

Liam and Peebee for their "U mad, Ryder?" moments in their loyalty missions. The one spot where that shocked facial expression on Ryder actually looked right.

Liam was a knucklehead, but mostly amusing in a "you'll never grow up, will you?" sort of way.  I found Peebee far more annoying than Cora's hero worship, but it would have been nice if not every time you talked to Cora it turned out to be about "that one time, in Asari Commando camp..."  She seemed old enough to have had her act together already instead of playing by some one elses manual all the time.

Peebee's personality just felt forced - Look, I'm wild and crazy, and weirdly nothing at all like any asari ever portrayed in the series and totally not like that last asari scientist you were exploring the galaxy with!

Heck, they should have made Peebee a human, and Cora an asari and just had done with it.

Spoiler

Vidal, for setting me up to be the patsy for his rigged duel with Sloan. The writers, for making that annoying mission/storyline. "Both Sloane and Reyes are murdering b*stards, but here's a chance for you to backstab someone who trusted your integrity!"

I agree that the dual was uncool, and I would like an option to let Reyes take over that doesn't involve me looking the other way while Slone gets sniped.

My first playthrough I romanced Cora and had her as one of my usual sidekicks while exploring. For me she didn't do much asari-asari fangirling outside of the conversation wheel, especially post-ark. Most of the time her behavior was pretty professional

As for Peebee, I actually was kind of reminded of Liara with her age, obsession with the ancient, and crush on her captain. However, while Liara was born and raised upper-class, daughter of a wealthy and powerful diplomat, Peebee seems to be more of a "street-rat" and has an attitude that seems to match.

Actually, I had no problem letting Sloan take that bullet. From the drug she used to make addicts, to kicking people out for not paying protection money and just generally being a total *, she was literally sending people to their death instead of taking measure to keep all of her people alive. One of the most nonredeemable characters I've seen in the game.

And yet she was a good leader for a while, protecting her people and colonizing Kedara, and suddenly things changed and it didn't have much to do with the crappy water. I'm guessing that there is a part of the story, probably involving Reyes, which we don't know. After all, it's hard to have a popular revolt unless there is someone unpopular to revolt against.

If you call killing a bunch of Kett and taking over an Angarian port good? She didn't build, she took over and then managed to not let it fall apart instantly.

I don't recall that Sloane had anything to do with that drug. That was an asari chemist who tried to convince you that the human doctor in the slums was behind it all. 

Sloane was taking protection money and kicking out those who couldn't pay,  true.  Reyes was no great prize either,  but he put on a good show. The Collective base I found left me with the opinion that he was also a bad choice,  and one that would shoot me in the back when it best suited him.
