If we Are the Aliens

I'm quite sure that we can find Alex Jones of the ME:A universe and land somewhere in his nearest vicinity.

All your bases are belong to us?!?

Or something like that?

By the end of the trilogy, Bio gave us a slew of characters. Look at the spoiler for the "Big Picture".
It shows the main, minor and support characters. Also, the bad + DLC ones too.



Mass Effect 1 gave us The Asari, Turians, Salarians, Krogans, Quarians, Geth. We know of two already, in MEA. Though the
Remnant are gone, the Khet are very much alive and our foes.

How many new ones will Ryder encounter, I wonder?

Hmm, one person's refugee is another person's invader.
It's hard not to see the arguments on both sides... (which makes it interesting).



(what, too soon?)

Hm.... We are like the Syrian refugees flooding the EU but better prepared to handle potential conflicts.

Most of the refugees streaming into the EU have at least tacit permission to do so.

We obviously have no permissions, either overt or implied, to enter Andromeda.

What do we do if the resident aliens (Khet?) don't want us there?

I'm not sure to whom you would apply for permission to enter a galaxy. That does make me curious to see if there are instances in the game where we do ask for permission to land, whether some hub city or through planetary protection of some kind.

Well its obvious we leave the MW in some sort of joint venture with at least a few of our current 'allies' but who's to say that any kind of alliance based on the politics of the MW will last when we start facing the problems of being refugees, and homeless, fighing for basic resources beyond a new frontier.

We will all obviously be 'incommers' and the level of resources available and the exisiting struggles the locals have  had to survive will influence the level of our welcome. If some of the locals are in a fight for their own 'lives' 'territory' etc., (which I think it sounds as if they are) then perhpas we will be able to offer them help in return for litterally sharing their space. If the galaxy adheres even loosly to our understanding of just how many planets in the goldilocks zone (at least for human habitation) there are... well we won't find one on every 'street' corner. And our MW allies have differing needs.

The Asari may be much more welcome than the rest of us or more shunned... and perhpas it will be the Krogan who will be seen as the most important new species the locals welcome and value.

Our 'alliance' may fall apart not only because of local politics but also the civilisation of the species that come with us, including our own,  may fracture... whose to say we don't end up with those who will continue to agree to the rule of the 'appointed' political elite and those who will see this is a fresh start away from all rules - Firefly anyone

The situation has endless storylines that are available and I think if they handle it well we will feel like the 'last of our species' fighting for our survival... we could be the spanish 'discovering' the americas or the aztecs leaving their continent before they are obliterated by the invaders and trying to find a home in the already settled and advanced europe of the spanish inquisition.

I was one of the people who always kind of wanted a prequel. First Contact War movie.

I never saw Andromeda in this light. Now I am even more excited. 

That was from that marketing survey, right? Awhile back? I'm genuinely wondering if they have mentioned that view again. The survey, at least, did have a focus on humanity; human - centric; finding home for humanity was mentioned specifically.

Maybe as some said that was only referring to it being from the POV of a human. Otherwise, idk how they're going to do it. There may be one Helios alien crewmate, or squadmate?

We did bring our home with us. The Milky Way...ians are one family now. Would be perceived as one family by inhabitants of Helios. All of us new kids on the block. The survey was very specific about humanity, but things change. Maybe they got feedback on the survey that prompted them to go in a slightly different direction.

So far, the only Helios folks I know about are the possible Khet? The Remnant seem now like they are defunct as a civilization, and we're trawling through their vaults for...stuffs.

Warring Races? That'll be super boring if they do that, IMO.

Mages vs Templars, who will you support?
