Opinions on the characters (Especially squadmates and Ryder) of ME:A, based on their own merits. Gre

Oh, yeah, I definately see a lot of Liara in Peebee. It's actually kind of blatant, which is pretty much my whole problem with Peebee.  Like I said, Peebee is just so obvious of a character whose arc is so transparent that she ends up boring me as much as Cora and Kaiden did. The "I'm a badass loner who doesn't want to get attached to people because I don't want to get hurt again or stuck in one place" trope just got tiring to me and I wish the game allowed my Ryder to call her on BS instead of having to wait until the "you guys are my family scene" happened which made me do the biggest eye-roll.

That said, you're right, she's a way better character then Liara even with my issues with her and anachronistic dialogue.

I agree with this for the most part, Personally I'd give Cora Peebee and Gil the boot, or at least not keep them as crew mates. Not sure if I'd boot the kett, but I'd say make them more interesting. Maybe have good and bad kett? Yeah Sam interrupting companion banter while on the Nomad was annoying as hell, not sure who approved that.

Yeah, Peebee is definitely more like Sera for DA:I.  Peebee and Liara, aside from both being Asari and studying ancient tech, have no other similarities, especially personality wise.  Liara was young in terms of Asari but she never acted immaturely like Sera and Peebee did.  Honestly, you could compare Peebee to Jack, I'm bad, I'm here right now, but there's no guarantee I'll stay, I'm going to isolate myself from the rest of the crew and act like I don't care about anybody but me.

But being like Liara, not so much.

I compared PB to Liara mostly because both of them are super-smart young Asari archaeologists obsessed with an ancient civilization and it's technology. 

colfoley  How did you feel about the non-squad crew(Gil, Kallo, Lexi, Suvi)?

OK.... So I guess now that I've beaten the game and all I should actually rate each crew member since that's what everyone else is doing

Drack: 9/10 Yeah yeah I get that he's your typical Krogan badass trope. But still he's an awesome character. He's super old to which makes him even more interesting, I was completely ok with him calling everyone kid. The bar fight scene was hilarious. He's also the best in combat. I do want to know more about wars he fought in.

Vetra: 8/10 Overall I liked her character, nice to have a female turian squad mate for a change. I will say that if you don't romance her, her character arc falls off a bit. Starts out strong and becomes meh towards the end of the game. Personally I liked her little siter plot, but I know not everyone will as they did over do it a bit. I couldn't shake the feeling she was a "jack of all trades master of none" type of character I do feel like there's a lot of potential with her, if the game gets a sequel she should definitely be in it.

Jaal: 8/10 Worked great as a tour guide if you took him with your crew. Had an interesting enough back story. Clearly grew found of the tempest crew over time. I liked the plot in his loyalty mission. My only criticism would be that I thought his voice actor over did it a litle, I get that he was suppose to be a romantic character but why does an Andromeda species have a Spanish accent? Definitely want to see more of him though.

Suvi: 7/10 Ok seriously this is mostly because I loved her accent....yeah. Anyway as a non combat "service" crew member, she did pretty well for herself. Had some pretty interesting conversations with her. I do feel like she was underutilized a little though

Liam: 6/10 I feel very conflicted about him. I liked him alright on the tempest, but whenever I took him on missions he said and did stupid shit a lot. It almost felt like the writers didn't know what to do with him, like some people wanted him to be a Jacob like stoic soldier, and some wanted him to be a goofball screw up. Ultimately I'm giving him this rating because his loyalty mission was by far the best, It helped change my opinion of him. Overall, I think he just needed more consistency, there was a very good character somewhere in there.

Kalo: 5/10 He was just......ok, boring but ok. Really nothing more I can say.

Peebee: 5/10 Yeah she just didn't do it for me. The super hyper childish girly characters are sort of a hit or miss with me. I couldn't bring myself to care about her rem tech stuff, she had some pretty undeniably bad lines. Oh and don't even get my started on her loyalty mission. She should have left that loser back in the Milky Way, and the stunt she pulled.......unacceptable. Overall I'll give her this rating because I know she was suppose to be a fan favorite, and she certainly didn't bore me in anyway. I still had some good conversations with her.

Jil: 4/10 Yawn, although his baby plot might help increase Andromeda's birth rate, so there is that. But yeah he had his fair share of cringe worthy dialogue.

Cora: 3/10 Yup, I'll be that guy. Seriously she couldn't go 10 seconds without talking her days as an Asari huntress, and it was ten times more annoying than Vetra going on about her sister. Also I'm tired of all this hyper authoritarian characters. Bioware also screwed up making her loyalty mission saving the Asari arc, what's up with that.

Dr. Lexi: 2/10 Ok I get that you're a doctor and we're your patients. But can you plese PLEASE actually develop some kind of personality. This is more than just a Doctor/Patient relationship. I would expect more out of a RPG game.

Man looking at this now, I guess I actually didn't like the squad as much as I thought I did. Well there where some characters I liked, overall didn't hate them.

Good one. Almost triggered me.

Wait, when did Lexi growl about PeeBee? PeeBee was the only being cruel to her, not the other way around. As for growling about SAM, of course she did because she is the team medic and SAM literally killed Ryder. 

You weren't given an option to take a side. I wish there was, since I don't tolerate bullies and would have loved the chance to berate PeeBee for it.
And Lexi was only doing her job. PeeBee wanted to tag along so she needs to do the things that involve that. But instead not only is she a petulant child not wanting to go to the doctor but as said before she is a cruel bully without facing any form of reprimand.
Between that and the whole thing with her personal quest, PeeBee was the member I wanted to kick off the ship most but no we have to become friends with her.

Everybody's your bud on the Tempest. It is a happy place *rolls eyes*

How was Lexi being pushy?  She's the doctor, and she's responsible for the crew's health.  This is like a player telling their head trainer they're not taking a physical.  The coach is going to say take the physical or you can't be on the team. 

Ryder should have been given the option to say if you're going to be on this ship you have to be medically cleared just like everyone else, and if you don't agree with that you can walk.

No, she's a bully for all the mean things she says and does to Lexi.
