No childs?
So you know in every ME you can "romance". But i would like to see some ways to get children with other species and then have them as companions to play with. Would be a fun way to make romancing mor...

@Pyro411 I dont even want to think about it... The thought that one of your favourite character got taken out of the game because you liked he/her so much. And no i have not come to that part in the game yet so i did not really know.

I don't think that a pregnant/parent romance partner would be kicked out of the game, although they would probably be off your squad for field operations. I really would like to see babies and kids in this game, especially if they can live in my giant family-sized cabin on my ship. 😇🥳
Also, I like the idea of having hybrid races, like Turian-Quarian or Ardat-Yakshi-Human (I so want to date/make Samara's grandbabies!) 😉
No, Shepard and Ryder can do what they do because they have no children.
They can't go on maternity or parental leave exactly. They are unique characters that need to be available and there's just no way that you have to save Prodromos from the Kett Or Roekaar but they have to wait 'cause you have to drop the kids off at school'.
I just don't see that, sorry. If they had to be parents they'd be terrible or very absent parents because of their lifestyle. You can't take your kids with you on death defying missions and they'd be too lonely on the ship anyway without friends and such. So if you leave em at the Nexus you'd be that absent parent that is never home and if your companion is the partner then both parents are never home.
Maybe, just like real life, people should think about what it means for the child to be brought into your life, rather than focusing on how much you want a kid. It's just not fair to the kid really and just plain selfish.
I'm sure some people will get upset over my opinion but I firmly believe it's more important to focus on what sort of life you bring a child into rather than just have babies and hope for the best. In Shepard's and Ryder's case their lives are really not compatible with family life.
The only way I could see children work is in a sequel where they now are the adults keeping their parents legacy alive.
Honestly it wouldn't even have to be children of the main cast in Andromeda 2 or Andromeda DLC...
There's enough choices in game to either directly or indirectly influence when/where/how families show up.
For example, the oldest human child would be that one person you may or may not have saved, and if you did, if you had sent her to Prodromos or the Nexus.
There's also Gil's friend
Honestly it'd be interesting to see how/if they implement it as a lot of games don't put in kids due to the violent natures within the games & potential backlash of showing kids in dangerous situations.

Honestly, ship captains have been successfully raising families on their vessels, even warships, for about as long as women have been allowed on ships, even when going on risky endeavors exploring beyond the edge of the map, where there be dragons (don't be scared off by the Mary Celeste, but it could be an interesting storyline). The same goes for trade caravans and pioneer families (See various pioneer sources, including the Little House on the Prairie book series). 🤓:eahigh_file:
The Pathfinder cabin on the Tempest is perfectly large enough for a family (read some tenement histories, you can have a family if 16 live in that space, and I suspect that Ryder is going to take awhile to be that prolific. Lexi will probably take over part of the medbay for her and Drack's blue baby, and there is space in Liam's man cave for another small family/nursery if Liam gets kicked out of it.🥳
Dude! Whatcha talkin about man? Liam being the bundle of energy that he is would very likely become the space version of Super Nanny... between him and Peebee I'm pretty sure the kids on the ship would be raised to be mega pranksters, especially when uncle Gil gets mixed in on it 🙂
