In your opinion. Putting aside the romantic side of him, we have no clue how he acted in other fields. As we don't know much about Drack, other then he loves fighting and doesn't seem to have high opinions on humans (if it's not threatening an enemy with that quote). I was referring more to him being an honorable warrior fighting for his people, unlike Drack who is just a criminal and a thug. Can I borrow the copy of the game you seem to already have?

I was referring more to him being an honorable warrior fighting for his people, unlike Drack who is just a criminal and a thug. That's based on what he did after ME2 (assuming he didn't because he loves to fight). We don't know much of his life before ME2. We don't know what he did. I'd say it's more likely that he wasn't in the same workplace as Drack (or Wrex), but there's no certainty about it.

Drack is not what I expected, in the sense tyhat he sounded like a wise, different sort of fella in the few scenes we saw, and now he's all "KRogan badassery, wraaaah". Which is not complain, btw, but curious. The announcement for the beggining of this gameplay series should have been made yesterday or tuesday, but weell, ok. Not digging this format, though, if it's what it seems. I'd prefer a long, uncut video with "a little bit" of everything in it, instead of a deep dive in several mechanics. But given how people are concerned about that one particular system that affects them - be it combat, CC, romance, etc - I'm probably in the minority here. I think that 10 minutes of uncut gameplay with no developer commentary would be better too. wel we are getting something so let's just hope it answers the questions we have.

While I don't agree with Hanako, Drack is clearly someone that did bad stuff , given his mercenary and pirate background (like Wrex). He can have good qualities, as Wrex, but it won't chance much of Hanako's perspective given of what he did for over a thousand year.

Drack is reminding me of Zaeed with his mercenary background.

Yeah exactly that's the quote I was referring to. It was kind of fresh in my mind as I'm playing ME3 atm although in my case I'm almost at the end of it now as I've just started the final mission. Once I've done that it'll be back to ME1. Technically, he could've fought in the Rebellions. They lasted for decades. He'd have been a young fella, though, assuming he was even around. "Over 1400 years old" isn't specific enough to say for certain. I am certain Drack will tell us his opinion of turians, though, and whether he fought in the Rebellions.Justin Perez @thejustinperez 12 minute long looping video of casting Charge and Nova again and again. Ugh. No, please. I feel like we mostly covered this style in the first gameplay trailer. Yeah he probably will if he did when you get to know him and do his loyalty quests.

All we have is a blurb and some quote that the marketing team found clever. The same folks thought, "The Milky Way is so last week," was a clever choice for PeeBee. We don't know why Clan Nakmor has seemingly left Tuchanka after Shepard's visit. We don't know anything about Drak's personality or motivations. We know he blood rages, stomps people and shoots them with a shotgun. That just means he's definitely krogan. The only other krogan we've met of this age are Wrex and Okeer. Wrex was very deep, and had the wisdom to unite his species. Okeer seemed pretty deep, if ruthless, as well. I'm sure Drack will be more than a simple thug. Why waste the 1400 year old krogan for a simple thug character? Edit: Post needs clean-up of verb tenses. Wut was I doing?

Because they haven't said anything about his story yet apart from his clan, approximate age and why he travelled to Andromeda. ----------------------------------------------------------------- He lived for more than 1400 years, no one (Krogan) would be able to reach that feat while being stupid. So i expect his demeanor will be similar to Okeer.

When the loyal, but stubborn, veteran was given the chance to join his clan on a voyage to Andromeda, he had no choice but to sign up. Doing so would present him with a whole new galaxy of stuff to shoot."

Would be interesting to see what a krogan romance would be like.

Hen @southernthinker Hey guys. Andromeda will have preload on digital copies right? If so, do we know when that will happen?
Ian S. Frazier @tibermoon Yes, definitely. Not sure of exact date, but it'll be pretty close to launch.

Okeer wasn't a very high and honorable person. Sure he wanted to cure the genophage but then how did he want to do it? By leaving a lot of bodies in his wake, and its reasonable to assume, he wanted to use his grunt as a tool of conquest. Okeer was probably the most actively evil krogan we've run across.

While I don't think he'll be like Wrex, I don't think it's sure there isn't more to it that what is said in the bio.

So the 5th briefing we'll get, awesome! I really thought they'd save it for the gameplay release, but if they are finally going to make a series of them instead of a big one, it makes more sense to release this now. Very pumped for tomorrow! I think the video we get tomorrow isn't an Andromeda Initiative briefing, i think its separate? Either way a gameplay vid is awesome. I think it's a briefing, since one of the briefings was listed as learning the weapons in game.

As Grunt would say "He's dead" At least he is a better krogan than Drack. This just in: Hanako Ikezawa in not liking something shocker. Film at 11.

Okeer didn't want to cure the Genophage. He just wanted to ignore it, and have the 1 in 1000 that survive be only the best krogan with Grunt serving as the template.

I was referring more to him being an honorable warrior fighting for his people, unlike Drack who is just a criminal and a thug. You're jumping to conclusions. We don't know Drack, yet. All we have is a blurb and some quote that the marketing team found clever. The same folks thought, "The Milky Way is so last week," is clever for PeeBee. We don't know why Clan Nakmor has seemingly left Tuchanka after Shepard's visit. We don't know anything about Drak's personality or motivations. We know he blood rages, stomps people and shoots them with a shotgun. That just means he's definitely krogan. The only other krogan we've met of this age were Wrex and Okeer. Wrex was very deep, and had the wisdom to unite his species. Okeer seemed pretty deep, if ruthless, as well. I'm sure Drack will be more than a simple thug. Why waste the 1400 year old krogan for a simple thug character? More and more i get the feeling the hidden reason for the Andromeda Initiative is the serve as a "Ark" to the Milky Way species in case Reapers Kill everyone (which I like by the way). You forgot Patriarch, he was very old too (claimed to be alive during the Rebellions). Also, Wrex is pratically a baby close to Drack and Okeer, until the other day his livers were still pink.
