Boot everyone but Drack, Male Ryder and maybe Vetra. Retcon Andromeda (they never went to the Andromeda galaxy), and put Drack, Male Ryder and Vetra on Sheps new squad lmao. I only want Vetra because it's time Garrus had a bae. But Garrus already has a bae: Tali. If you don't romance either of them they become a couple.

Let's see...
- Remove Cora for an actual asari commando or change her into someone actually competing with the main character to be the pathfinder since she was number 2 to Alec.
- I wouldn't really change Jaal, Drack, or Peebee.
- Remove Liam completely and give me someone competent that actually feels like he/she's actually been in crisis response and not like someone who just made that up to sound cool when they were mistakenly chosen to be in the pathfinder team.
- Make Vetra more... shady? Maybe have her only be in it for herself and looking to sabotage if it benefits her.
- I like Kallo and Suvi how they are so I wouldn't change them.
- Make Lexi romance-able. Not sure if she is for DudeRyder, but she wasn't for FemRyder so that was disappointing. And actually give her a unique face... not the same copy/paste asari face they used for literally every asari in the game minus Peebee. lol
- Can take or leave Gil... idk, maybe change him to a Vorcha or Quarian or something.
- Add some random crew members around the ship.

One of the reasons I liked Zaeed so much is just the way he was like some geezer down the pub, leaning on the bar and telling his war stories to anybody who would listen. Maybe it's just that Andromeda's characters felt a bit green in comparison, even the likes of Cora who was supposedly a veteran. Though I'm still of the opinion that there wasn't any fundamental flaws, just that it needed a teensy bit of polish. Vometia, I'm so glad you mentioned Zaeed's character-type. The AI's characters were all 'green newbies' imo, so they had less interesting backgrounds for my taste in character development. Having a 'well-grizzled' veteran around who can tell 'tall tales' from their previous MW exploits, and offer suggestions that may help Ryder consider different approaches to take when dealing with the Kett, would be interesting for me. Imagine a Zaeed-like character sitting at the Travetaan bar/pub telling the angara patrons "tall tales" from the MW, for example. Have that character talking, laughing, and drinking with Drack at the Travetaan bar (maybe Drack misses his Ryncol, or he brought some with him!, or discussing the distillation recipe), and then they start a fist fight and have a free-for-all 'western-style' bar fight with the angara. So many ways to play this for fun and light-hearted amusement, and creating new Andromeda lore and conversations and decisions. Yeah, there would be complaints that BW cloned Zaeed for Andromeda, but certainly a new and differently-experienced mature character could add interest to the story, even if it's just adding a little lore to the MW from a stool or table seat at a bar, at the very least, and add their suggestions (as unique character dialog, perhaps) at the battle sites (like, "Ryder, how about I take <2nd squadmate> with me and we'll flank them from behind their position; catch 'em with their pants down"). Just thinking of possibilities for improvements ....

I hold my view because I just constantly shake my head at the number of missed opportunities in dialog and character development that could have been done with a better writing staff, which I blame Mac W for, and scenes that could have been more dramatized to an insanely funny or seriously poignant effect. Drack's character could have been so much better for a krogan.

Give vetra a proper sexy romance scene. Allow ryder to romance sid as well as vetra for a sibling threesome. Wake up your own sibling earlier in the story line and allow him/her to be a squadmate. (For lols) allow ryder to romance his/her sibling, with appropriate reactions from onlookers.

Make everyone but the shiprunners outcasts of the previous galaxy. Not lawless but people that felt like they had tried but never fit in anywhere and became so desperate they thought the trip to a remote galaxy sounded like a good idea.
It's still bizarre to think about that while Shepard takes on the most insanely hard privatized missions of a one-way trip through a relay that supposedly kills every ship and crew that previoysky went through it - and returns! - 100,000 people take a much bigger one way trip on a much bigger project to a foreign galaxy and expect everything to go according to plan... Everyone believes in this stupid idea for no good reasons.... I've asked them all.

Did you not talk to anybody in the game? This is precisely what everybody was. And it didn't improve the game at all.

Drop most of the humor and i think most of the current cast would improve. Or change the humor to a different kind. Like in ME2 Grunt asks if anyone else is hungry after smelling bodies, its funny but its not funny, which is a more fitting kind of humor in a lot of cases that doesnt turn things into a joke for me. There are probably better examples but that hopefully gets the idea across.
Though id certainly like some squadmates that are much more, renegade i suppose. I mean honestly id like paragon and renegade back for ryder, even with its limitations i preferred it to the current system.
I think id boot SAM entirely because i happen to like Kallo and Suvi and i feel like they are worthless as long as sam exists. All they ever do is ask sam to do what needs done it feels like, or sam just does it. Actually there isnt anything i like sam for so just kick him out entirely because not only is he is doing literally everything making my feel ryder useless, he is basically an always on tutorial playing in my ear during gameplay. The thing i disliked the most about EDI was she felt like a tutorial all the time, and i missed the figuring things out for myself in ME1 or my squadmates giving more opinions. Then along comes sam and his constant yapping...even worse now he actually acts through me to accomplish the main story missions. Ugh.

Tone down the fangirl-ism of Cora's love of Asari Commandos, make her bisexual, able to make more geniune compare and contast with N7 Marines and Asari Commandos. Also learning about Kett's tactics and technology to develop countermeasures to the Kett's squads.

Let Ryder punch people in the face for stupid behavior. Seriously. Maybe the Twins need more Spectre-like authority (meaning, they get away with everything but still answer to the "Council").

Well he's right about the fact that there should be more interaction with your sibling (but not THAT kind of course!) I don't see the point to introduce a main character to keep him invisible in a freezer box, then lying down, and finally be forced to play him for 5 minutes, which kills immersion in a RPG... Total nonsense

SAM. Way overpowered and downright dull. The fact that Ryder's SAM was deliberately programed to be superior to the other Pathfinders' SAMs reeks of favoritism and borders on racism. Why would you not share these improvements so every Pathfinder has a better chance at doing their freaking job? I don't mind Cora's Asari worship. What I do mind is how BioWare seems to have a passive-aggressive attitude towards the Asari as a species. Cripes, they practically use Cora to emphasize how the best Asari are humans. I liked Vetra the most out of the roster. I guess one area I'd improve on is her relationship with her sister. I like sister/sister dynamics and thought it could have used more. Like have her on the Tempest for a while. Drak. Just another grumpy male Krogan. Seen it. Liam. An example of writers trying so hard to make Liam likable that he comes off as insufferable. Suvi. More relationship moments on par with Cora. Also, a slight change of design. This mod I think improves the look of her character tremendously. Not by making her more sexy, but by having her design come off as more professional looking. Jaal. If I could take three companions, he'd always be the third. But since I can't... Like what a lot of users have been saying, his problem comes from the fact that his whole species is just boring. Still, he's still a way better character than Javik. Peebee. Sigh. The Asari are my favorite race in this franchise. I love the whole concept. But having a companion who is so self-centered that she does not give one crap about the well being of her entire species was a major let down. Also for all her talk about being an expert on remnant tech, the game really fumbles her importance when she openly admits she can't do anything when remnant tech becomes crucial. EVERYONE. Stop... with... the... Pathfinder... worship. I HATED how everyone idolized the Pathfinder as some kind of deity that will solve everyone's problems. It's not even the Pathfinder doing any of the hard work. It's SAM. The writers even acknowledge that much when your Ryder gets cut off.
