Quotable moments in Andromeda

Good thing they fixed it.

It’s still in the game. Fixing it would require a complete rewrite of the Addison conversation.

She’s inconsiderate and aggressive. She uses bizarre phrases like, “My face is tired,” and “... pathfound something.” She corrects Ryder’s poor grammar, but then makes 4 or 5 grammatical errors in her own speech. That conversation, complete with the terrible animations, did a huge amount of damage in terms of setting a weird, off-putting mood. That conversation is the worst I’ve experienced in a game like this. I often skip the dialogue in order to spare myself the awkward discomfort of it.

It didn’t help that it came on the heels of zingers from Cora like, “It feels like centuries since we last spoke,” and “He was an N7. They don’t mess around.” Throw in the horrible scanner introduction scene; Liam’s several turds; some weird stuff from Fisher; and there’s a ton of crap-writing concentrated in the first hour of the game. It does improve from there, but by then some of the audience has been lost. I totally understand why someone would check-out in disgust over the cumulative crappiness of those lines.

"So dark. You sure you're not from the DC Universe?*"😁😁😂

I didn’t realize this was a “No Discussion or Dissent” zone. My one post hardly took things off topic. It just didn’t agree with yours. Have no fear, I addressed the topic thoroughly enough that I have nothing left to say about it.

Deadpool, speaking to Cable. I’ve seen the commercial several times.

The people who love to keep posting old MEA outdated sayings are from the DCEU.

Do you even see to whom you’re replying? I don’t like MEA? I won’t derail your thread countering that. If you venture out into any number of other threads in the MEA sub forums your memory will be refreshed. Hell, just read my posts in this thread.

I just thought of a funny moment, but it’s long and I can’t quote it directly (lame, I know).

Liam trolls Cora, offering to help her fix the colors of her armor to better match the movie from which she got the style. She gets defensive, saying “I didn’t design my armor to match a dropship rescue scene”. Liam points out that he never named the scene, and says the offer stands.

I usually hear that one post-game, driving around doing gear-testing.

May be a reference to this:

Now I'm curious - was this late in the game and have you used that pairing quite a lot?

I don't take the 2 of them out much, and when I do I usually get Liam carping at Vetra for bringing Sid to Andromeda.

Oddly, no, it was after exiting the Eos Vault. I’ve never heard it before in 17 PTs. I always open the game with these two, since Vetra gives great background on prior Eos efforts. Liam is hilarious on Eos, and Cora is the conflicted XO in the early game, so I leave her shipboard on the first visit.

Usually, these two are obnoxiously bickering at this stage. I’m assuming it triggered out of order. It makes me wonder how many dozens of interactions I’ve never heard.

That's a lot of eyes to put out.

That's the Asari Ark speech, first thing after the Salarians' is them trying to shut your mission down.
