Why can't Ryder be actually mean?
Okay, I was really glad when they said they'll get rid of the paragon-renegade system. It was too extreme, paragon easily got too high-and-mighty, and renegade sometimes turned into genocidal maniac....

What you gotta understand though is the background of the characters, they grew up to 2 extremely intelligent parents, then they had active scientific/military careers. These Ryder twins have probably known some semblance of professionalism since they were younger. They also have a much more solidified background than Shepard did. Shepard was a true RPing character, who you could shape his history, and then determine his personality based on that. We had alot more flexibility with Shep because his background wasn't tied to specifics.
Well you are right 2 out of 3 times, depending on what you chose as Shepard's background. Earthborn, Colonist or Spacer. Think the Spacer one, Shepard's mother was a captain of an Alliance Ship and eventually promoted to Rear Admiral in ME3.

With all the extra auto dialogue in Andromeda for Ryder I think it would have been too hard to make a ruthless Ryder. Otherwise one min she would be patting the crew on the backs saying good job, the next in their faces. It wouldn't work out.
I personally prefer all of the extra during mission dialogue and banter from Ryder with the crew, if that means slightly less options on our chars overall personality its a hit worth taking.
