Most Renegade Moments in Andromeda

Dammit...that's the one I would've gone with. Very renegade-ish.

Alright, letting Sloane get shot. Not really a cruel moment, but very cold and calculating.

Shooting Kalinda in the back after PeeBee says she wants to save her.

I might try it eventually lol

Every time. She almost killed us all and she's super abusive. Girl bye.

i did in my last run and will keep it from now on. Kalinda just tried to have you killed again and again , so, fuck her. 

the other main Ranagade options have already been mentioned, the remaining ones are minor choices, like  demoting Serissa as Pathfinder  for example. 

Besides ones mentioned, I'd say blowing up facility on Voeld. One of those "sacrifice a few for the bigger cause" ones would have to be renegade.

EDIT: I think demoting Sarissa would actually be a paragon choice - tell the truth and promote a newbie over experienced fighter. Remember, in ME, pragmatic = renegade most of the time.

Most renegade moment? Was there one?

Shooting the stowaway's girlfriend wasn't renegade. Blowing up the kett facility wasn't renegade.

I think they do get out. Least that is how I took it. It's just that pretty much none of the other captured Angara are saved.

I'm not sure demoting Sarissa really is a renegade option. That one is hard to tell. I think that one could be pure perspective. Both ways could be viewed as either paragon or renegade. Keeping her could be seen as renegade more like ruthless because you know she can do the job. Or it could be paragon because you don't have the heart to demote her and see her as just doing her job best she could trying to keep hope alive and not upset them.

Likewise, demoting her could be paragon because you see her as a danger, that she takes too many risks and lies to people and thinks all her years of her experience mean she doesn't have to own up to things which would make her more of a renegade herself. Or it could be renegade because you just don't like her choice and want her to pay the price and humiliate her or be ruthless in your actions of how you handle it. 

I think that one is more intent based. Only the player would know their intent when doing it and how they viewed it. A few times I stuck it to Sarissa because I didn't like that she lied and felt that would be a wake up call for Cora who I needed to have a wake up call. Very renegade to be part of that just to get cora's head out of her ass. But other times I demoted her because I felt she was a genuine threat to the safety of the ark and would be dangerous as a pathfinder. Rationale was the lying and reckless tactics that nearly destroyed the ark. That felt paragon. Exposing the lie and forcing truth and change felt very paragon actually.

I wouldn't call it hardcore Renegade, but leaving the female Angara to freeze and starve, while trying to torture the Kett felt more like that, and shooting him felt more Paragon.

it 's a bit of a  cornelian dilemma .

Either choices kind of feel wrong, while both seem also valid.


so i guess those choices aren't real renegade/paragon where according to your playstyle  a choice would feel completely right , no second thoughts. ( although you can see Shepard feeling like shit after killing Mordin in ME3 )

I might too on my next playthrough, but I don't like the way the choice was set up. Shooting someone so another person won't be distracted and save them... I know Kalinda probably deserved it (and she was annoying), but I couldn't do it.

Another classic "renegade interrupt" would be shooting the Cardinal in the back. Just the way Ryder says "don't count on it". Ha, I loved it

I always do this- letting Ruth Bekker die so the Roekaar bioterrorist doesn't get away. Renegade isn't "evil" imo; it was a matter of cold calculus, as Garrus would say.
