[POLL] Quarians in Andromeda

I don't think they will be in MEA. It feels like their whole story was tied into getting back their homeworld and in that respect I cannot see why they would choose to leave the Milky Way behind. The Andromeda galaxy is a bit far to go to for your pilgrimage.

I'm hoping they come up with a good reason for everyone to be going on this expedition rather than because it's there; unless the promise of a new life and new frontiers is enough. It's a big undertaking for anyone to sleep for hundreds of years to travel to a new galaxy.

Getting paid to take a giant nap would probably get me to sign up!

I checked maybe. With as popular as they I can see BioWare trying to find a good reason for the Quarians to travel to Andromeda but I don't think it makes much sense to do so. In ME2 when Shepard asks Tali why they don't just colonize a new planet, she tells them that it would take much longer for their immune systems to acclimate to a new planet than it would to re-acclimate to their home planet. I think her example was something like 60 years vs 600 years. For this reason, I don't see many Quarians wanting to travel to a whole new galaxy and try to acclimate their immune systems there. I do like the Quarians and I would love to be able to romance a male Quarian. But it just doesn't make sense to me to have them in Andromeda. I still hope they will be though.

I voted 'maybe'.

Only a Sith deals in absolutes.

I hope they're there. I don't expect they will be if there was a voting system for elimination. It would be a shame and a waste if they were turned into a throwaway race after the lopsided favoring of the Geth in ME3.

I'd rather have the Geth than the Quarians.

If they brought back Legion somehow I'd pay like a lot more for the game……like $17 more.

no because they were all huddled in their own area of space hiding form the rest of the galaxy, there is zero chance they would of risked sending a ship of their own across the gap and everyone else calls them suit rats so they wouldn't be invited,

their ships are hundreds of years old and would of been scrapped by any race with a world to land on, they cant go into hypersleep because of their suits, there utility on intergalactic travel would be zero after the initial 30 years because they would start dying off through age and infirmity unless the geth programs have rendered them no longer reliant on the suits there not going to be appearing (and that would make saving both sides cannon, which clearly isn't the case as the game defaults to killing the geth)

honestly I would expect both the turians and the quarians not to go, because their bodies are not compatible with the rest of the galaxy and as such they would share similar problems with respect to utilising hypersleep chambers designed around a totally different protein structure......

no doubt there will be some creative magic though and both will actually appear even if logic dictates it would be otherwise..... lets face it only a handful of the alliance admirals actually believe the threat of the reapers, the rest don't so only they would actively be creating a program for the future of the human race, they might open up and allow other races into the program near the end (or for financial reasons) but if nobody else is doing the research then nobody else will be creating compatible systems for themselves ....

Fair enough.
But, I can only see them as NPCs.

but there chances of finding a compatible planet for their unique biology is 2 in the whole galaxy based on the fact Andromeda is double the size of the milkyway and we only have one planet for their unique biology.... in our whole galaxy....

there no reason for them to help in the expedition, their race either survives in the MW or it dies out they have zero chance for redemption elsewhere.... that would be the narrow minded thought lines for them that would be lore compliant, its ranoch or nothing, especially as at the start of me3 their race was already starting to die out/

Anyone who isn't Ryder is an NPC.
