That's the question. If you could replace an original trilogy character with an Andromeda character, what would that swap be and why? Doesn't have to be same species or just squad mates. Go nuts!
Personally I would switch Liara for PeeBee. I enjoyed Liara, especially after she became Shadow Broker, but her growth was kind of out of character, and she fell for Shep so fast as to be embarrassing and awkward. PeeBee's closed-off attitude and gradual acceptance of being on a team is more realistic to Liara's transformation, in my opinion.

Does Shepard with Ryder count? Sure! Ryder was a bit easier to make into "your" character instead of altruistic angel or murderous psycho.

My favorite characters from MEA were Drack, PeeBee, and Jaal. Not sure who Is replace them with, but I definitely would have loved to see them in the OT!

It depends on which game I'm playing.
If I'm playing MEOT and have to swap out one....uh....Suvi for Kelly Chambers.
If I'm playing Andromeda...Edi for Sam.

I'd replace Thane with Reyes. Kai "General Mills" Leng would just get sniped from a distance while Reyes stood there saying "Bang".
I'd replace Chambers with Suvi. She'd be in the lab with Mordin, and Suvi would probably rock that stripper outfit.

I would replace diana allers for kerri tvessa, you see while kerry definetely is an attractive journalist not just physically but in terms of personality (for the little screen time she has, she actually charmed me) but she has decent voice acting, I can't say the same about allers.

I'm gonna restrict myself to squadmates otherwise it's just too easy to get the blandest MET character and replace with one I like from MEA.
So, probably Jacob for Drack. Having the three krogans together would be nice, and the interactions between Shepard and Drack much better. In fact, Drack's story could have had one epic conclusion in the Reaper war than going to Andromeda.

I didn't think it was embarrassing bc the mind-melding thing--seems they had an unusually intimate moment there--but tbt I didn't love ME1 Liara. I also head canoned the 'harder' Liara as a shift due to trauma/loss of Shep's death--even if they don't have a relationship, she was clearly in love and it was a turning point for her character, where her darker, tougher side took the reins. I have yet to keep space racist Ashley alive, but I would switch out Ashley for Vetra and then kill Kaidan on Virmire. Not a fan of Ashley. I don't gaf about your grandpa, babe.

I would take Lexi over Chakwas for the whole Trilogy. Chakwas is nice and loyal, such a grandma, but just doesnt sparkle with me. Jacob for noone. No comments. I like the idea of replacing Kelly for Suvi and Kaidan\Ashley for Vetra. Cause Suvi is better written and Vetra.. well, you know < 3 .

Jacob for Drack, I second that. Liara for PeeBee. Cora for Miranda "Muh Sister" Lawson Reyes for Kasumi. Reyes as a master thief makes a certain kind of sense. He's more sly and witty and can probably successfully complete more heists without relying exclusively on a cloaking gimmick. He'd actually be useful for the reaper war rather than selfishly cowering or refusing the call. Sloane for Darner Vosque. Blue Suns get a REAL leader to follow after Zaeed deals with Vido. Morda for Gatatog Uvenk. So we can have Grunt fuck up the one krogan in the galaxy who isn't intimidating in any way. Vorn for Okeer. Bitch ass Vorn dies, and the Andromeda Krogan number more than 5 with a real badass who will make them a fear, powerful force to be reckoned with. Archon/Kett for Glowy Piece of Shit. Archon is a far better villain by default but also has a personality, serves a purpose, and has more relevance to the MET than that fucking abomination or a character. Sloane's Turian LT for Jondam Bau.The worst Spectre to ever exist can go somewhere where his inabilities as a competent spectre could actually make him more valuable than being a loser who got choked out by an indoctrinated human.

There's only two characters I would swap out. Kaidan with Reyes and maybe - maybe - Ashley with Sloane.

Personally I would switch Liara for PeeBee.

PeeBee's closed-off attitude and gradual acceptance of being on a team is more realistic to Liara's transformation, in my opinion. Jokes aside I would never change Liara for Peebee. I would probably want to bring Drack over but he's a bit too similar to Wrex for that to work. Cora could be a candidate for a swap with Ashley to act as your second-in-command or, better yet, Vega. The thing is I love the vast majority of characters from the OT, flaws and all (except for Jacob, you can safely exile him to Andromeda). I would not be opposed to bringing back Vetra either but it's difficult to place her as a squadmate. I'd also love to bring Suvi but she'd probably take on a minor role and I wouldn't want that (and I am not replacing her with Samantha!).

Though I'd probably feel bad with the meta. Plus side, at the point of no return it's suddenly "FTL'S NOT FAST ENOUGH JOKAH!" instead of "ALL HEAD, FULL!" I'd replace Thane with Reyes. Kai "General Mills" Leng would just get sniped from a distance while Reyes stood there saying "Bang". I'd replace Chambers with Suvi. She'd be in the lab with Mordin, and Suvi would probably rock that stripper outfit. Not what I imagined, buuuuuut....... Sure! Ryder was a bit easier to make into "your" character instead of altruistic angel or murderous psycho. not an opinion you hear every day. It's not one of the cool ones.

Not a fan of Ashley. I don't gaf about your grandpa, babe. Yeah that's how I feel about it too in that the destruction of the Normandy and the death of Shepard really affected her. This is a tough question OP but I think I have an answer. I'd probably switch Kaiden with Jaal. I think Jaal and Garrus would have been good friends talking about weapons and such. I think Liara would have liked him too. I think Tali would have appreciated having someone of like mind too
