I'd rather all future companions be from new alien races we discover in Andromeda.

A character cut from a similar cloth as Tazzik. Rather than the Salarian filling the engineer/scientist role, a bruiser who is a tank like Drack or Vetra.

Salarian Squad mate = YES PLEASE
Easily my favorite species in the ME universe.
Mordin is my all time favorite video character (+ a fantastic story arc), Kallo is funny, nerdy and awesome and the Salarian Spectre/Pathfinder is neat too.

Yes and let's get some more dimensional personalities. Humans aren't all the same. Aliens shouldn't have to be either. I want a youthful Salarian squadmate who isn't as smart as other Salarians and doesn't care. Easy going, Shaggy Doo type of character. Even better as a romanceable woman (wolarian?). One can dream

I'd love to have a female salarian squadmate next time around. In fact, if I had my way, the next squad would look like this:
Infiltrator - Female salarian Soldier - Male quarian Vanguard - Female krogan Sentinel - Male human or Andromeda species Engineer - Male Andromeda species Adept - Female drell

Only thing you got is that he's young. You know who Shaggy Doo is? The character I'm asking for is closer to Gil than Kallo. Or like, Jessica Jones as a Salarian

You want a laid back kind of character?

The character I'm asking for is closer to Gil than Kallo. Or like, Jessica Jones as a Salarian You mean shaggy Rogers from Scooby doo. You want a laid back kind of character? Laid back would be a good start. Pretty much every Salarian in mass effect talks fast, thinks fast and is obsessed with technology/science or is somehow academic or brainy. They're all nerds There are "biological" explanations that the writers use to excuse this but look humans are as biological similar to one another as Salarians are yet there isn't just one type of human. We have those who are laid back, those who are high strung, those who are scientific and those who aren't. We can't expect the writers of a video game to do that with every single alien species but when focusing on specific squadmates it should be a priority to do something more unique. So yeah, Shaggy Rogers would be a start. I'd also kill for a Salarian girl who is brooding and sardonic and disinterested in intellectual pursuits. The way I see it mass effect has four "main" alien races. Turians, Asari, Krogan and Salarians. When it comes to Asari and Turians? Decent amount of variation in personality. When it comes to Krogan and Salarian? All jocks vs all nerds. I don't get it
