Is it just me or is Liam standing too close?

I always assume it was a bug...

I think it's a glitch that happens when you don't take him in the ground team when you first land on Eos. Like he doesn't get the command to go and get ready so he just stands there. Waiting. For a command that never comes.
Could have been a cute screenshot opportunity if he stood a bit more to the left, but it's kind of creepy like that.
But I generally feel like all Bioware npcs need a lesson on the personal bubble and not to pop it, especially after playing other games.

Aha that must be it! In my 4th and current (5th) play through I pick Vetra instead of him. Aside from being annoyed by his banter (and the character in general), Vetra unlocks a few lines of dialog when you run into Drack. I guess now we know what Liam's suspensions in the Milky way were for!

I think it ´ s best to just ignore people who have the urge to start thread because of stuff like this.

He's kind of a close talker

Someone standing that close to me IRL would probably get an elbow to a soft spot.
