Characters from this game as squad mates for the seq

Not friggin Reyes.

I would love to take:


Sloane because all my team are a bit too "good" you know?

Kesh

Kandros

...aaaaaand maybe a Kett.

Oh, and I'd kind of like to take Lexi, it's be handy having a medic on the team.

Agree about Sloane but I guess unlikely if she's dead in 50% of playthroughs. 

I wouldn't really want the other pathfinders in my team, because having them following my orders would only reinforce the impression that we are THE pathfinder, while the others are, well, more a filler. I want less of that, not more. But having more interactions with them, including a few missions like the kett ship where they come with us, hell yes!

Now I'd love Sloane, but she might be dead so she's a sure no. Reyes would be cool if they give me the option to space the lying asshole. And Cassandra Verner, we need to finally have a Verner in our squad. 

One of my biggest disappointments about the trilogy is we never got to see Garrus reach his full potential as a peer to Shepard after ME1, even his Shadow Broker dossier touches on this. Even though Wrex was my favorite squadmate and I missed using him, I liked that he was able to go on to bigger things.

I was actually annoyed when I heard the Tempest was the only remaining pathfinder ship. It feels cliché and sets up the single point hero being Ryder. I would prefer they retcon that to they were damaged and are now repaired in the sequel.

Hmph, MEA didn't really catch me with it's side npcs, barely remember anyone and most of them are civilians. Zaeed's son seems like the only candidate.
*imagined three Sams talking simultaneously*
They'd be better as mission squadmates though.

Reyes, a lovable rogue for everyone!

Actually I think the Tempest is not the only pathfinder ship. Might be the only one operational and "ready to use" during the first game, but on a banter moment with Vetra she actually says to Ryder that there are quite a few awesome Pathfinder "items" such as ships and tech stuff in deep storage for rainy days.

As for new squadmates, Sloane/Reyes and the pathfinders are all out of the question since all of them will only be in the next game depending on your choices.

I would love if they found a way to add your sibling as squadmate for the next game. Would be amazing if they could use your save games from this game to determine the personality of your sibling squadmate based on your choices. Like, using a save game where you played as Sara, to give your personality to your squadmate Sara in Andromeda2 while you play as Scott, and vice versa.
I loved that little mission where you take control of your sibling, was really fun and made me wonder: wow... 2 Ryders (specially the casual ones) together roaming the galaxy and killing the baddies with bad puns and cute cringe humor?? Sign me up! Ryders in the Tempest!

Avitus springs to mind, Zaeed's boyo too. I want an Asari Commando (a real one) so Sarissa Theris or that other kid would be nice.

I'll blow my brains out if I have to listen to Kesh's voice any longer.

Bain Massani. Just so I can hear him refer to the Primarch as "Little Duck"

Reyes and/or Bain Massani would be wonderful additions. I'd also, if possible, like to see Tiran and/or Avitus join us.
