If you were a crew member on the Tempest...

Personally, it'd be a constant source of annoyance, more so the wasted space than who got it. Space is a luxury in confined quarters, and so much of Ryder's is simply wasted.

You could give Ryder a quarter of that- still more than anyone else aboard- and turn the rest of it into an actual recreation/observation deck for the crew.

Normandy 1 or Normandy 2?

Normandy 1's captain's quarters was 'realistic,' or closest to being such for anything approaching a military ship.

Normandy 2's loft was ridiculous on space grounds as well.

My Sara needs a massive room - given how many times I change her uniform colours, the wardrobe must be huge.

Actually the living arrangements on the Normandy 2 were the closes to being realistic. Yeah the captains quarters where a bit big but atleast there was crew berthing and private quarters for the second in command (Miranda's room) plus the captains quarters had its own private bath. The Normandy 1 had no private bath for the CO nor was there separate quarters for the XO or chief engineer (LT Adams), or OPS boss/Navigator (Lt Pressly) not to mention none for Dr Chawkwas in either Normandy despite she being the ships medical officer.

I know what you meant- it's no less silly. That's not how people rationalize being cramped without privacy while one person has more space than everyone else combined.


Rank doesn't just mean military-rank. Hierarchy still exists in non-military organizations, and that hierarchy is why The Pathfinder gets their own room while no one else does.



Not necessarily.


Your experience is a bit dated to the present. Such positions not having their own rooms would be within historical practices.




...and?

The fact that I'm not saying the Tempest is reallistic aside- again, total waste of space for the Pathfinder's quarters for no good reason- halving fewer beds than people is the least of the issues. Hot-bunking is totally a thing in ship-settings where space is a premium.

MEA fails at this, mind you, by having everyone up at the same time rather than worrying about shifts, and of course not giving a shit about space utility consistency, but that's why we're talking about whether the use of space on the Tempest would annoy us.

Can we be more than friends ?

Done.

Considering all the pressure that is on Ryder I would not exactly be envious. As long as I have a clean comfortable bed to crash in when I need sleep I am not picky.

Why the hate for Liam? I can see getting rid of PB who IMO didn't care to much for the crew of Tempest (until late in the story) and didn't even care if the asari ark was found or not, but Liam seemed to always be positive and engaging  with the other crew members (he seemed to be the only one to interact with Jaal) Liam did organized the first soccer match in Andromeda as well as help set up movie night for the crew on the Tempest. 

I would be spacing Liam. F*** this guy.

I guess I would just have to hot-bunk with Cora...

I would be fine with it. Though, I would find a new job for Liam at the Nexus, leave him there and take his room, minus the couch.

I would care about the missions and not where I sleep. Schedules are tight and missions dangerous, I do not see myself spending tons of time in a big luxury cabin on a spec ops space ship. Give me a bunk, a place to store my gear and I'm good, you can keep your XXL sized cabin thankyouverymuch.


In fact, if I was a crew member on the tempest and given a luxury cabin the size of Ryders' then I would re-purpose it for training or storage and grab myself a crew bunk. I hate wasting space, resources and dislike unnecessary elitism.
