What Personality is your Ryder?

I did 14 unique runs in MEA … one for each character class, with each Ryder. The first two, I played the Ryders as mirror image personalities, one Professional/Logical and the other Emotional/Casual. The game choices were the same, only the tone was different. In the remaining runs, I played whatever response seemed appropriate to the situation and changed a limited number of game choices from the "default" choices.

Over time, some of my original game "default" choices changed, in other cases, once trying a different game choice, I switched back to the "default" in subsequent runs. By the 14th run, with three exceptions I'd pretty much done every different binary game choice option (Morda always got the Remnant power supply, the Salarian doctor always got arrested and I never cooperated with the Kett).

But the "tone" remained whatever felt right at the time. As such, my Ryders hit upon all the different personality styles. This was a departure from MET, where 18 of my 19 Shepards were paragons from the outset and remained that way throughout the trilogy. In a way, having no specific paragon/renegade choice, I was freed up to explore all the different dialog options … which I did … hence the spectrum of personality styles that my Ryders covered.

I didn't vote in the poll, because "all of the above" is not an option and for me, that is the only response I could give that would be accurate.

Pretty even between logical, professional and causal. Honestly, all of them sounded casual to me in tone the words were slightly edging towards one of the types.

I was almost evenly split between Logical and Emotional, but some of the casual responses came from a little too far out in left field for me, so I picked professional almost exclusively after a certain point.

Which one did you enjoy the most?

A bit of an ass

According to Lexi's probably bugged evaluation in the Codex, my Ryder had all the personalities.

I play Scott as more logical/professional, while Sara is more emotional/casual.

Yeah that's how I thibnk mine are as well. They caer about their team but at the asme time they realise they have a job t odo and they'er not going to be able to achieve those goals without taking certain risks.

Ryder in my game is Evil/Logical, oops no I can't.

Its been a while, but I think I did Logical/Professional the most. I avoided Casual the most, but used Emotional at times.


The game was already too casual for me to opt into more of that.
