I did some thinking and realized that there may be a way for Geth to come to Andromeda. On June 15th 2016; a day before my birthday Bioware released Mass Effect 2's fist major story DLC: Project Overlord. In the events of the DLC Cerberus is experimenting with Geth/Organic communications with Gavin Archer at the helm. Gavin Archer used his own brother David Archer as a lab rat in these experiments. Essentially turning David into a living VI( Virtual Intelligence). Due to the nature of the experiments David becomes unstable, begging and pleading to "make it stop". Even with all the heartache and excruciating pain David endured; the experiments were technically successful. With that being said, I believe that this is how Geth can venture to Andromeda. I know we venture to Andromeda around Mass Effect 2's timeline and the events of Saren and the Geth are still fresh on the galaxy minds. However, I think if Cerberus is involved in anyway this would be one of them. Some may say the Geth have no reason to leave the milky way, but these aren't the same kind of Geth as Legion. These are organic controlled Geth. However, I don't believe we'll be seeing Geth anytime soon. It's still a fun idea to ponder upon. Whats your opinion on the matter?

Sure it's possible but at the time, the experiment also reinforced (a) that the Geth are hostile and (  how risky it would be to entrust them with the survival of 80k colonists. |

If there are going to be geth in Andromeda, the most likely scenario I see is that there will first be quarians in Andromeda (even though, I believe, they are still unconfirmed at this point). If there are quarians in Andromeda, the I would say it's probably in line with what Daro Zen said after Tali's trial: "What has been created can be recreated." In other words, the quarians simply build geth again... probably thinking that they're able to improve on their previous programming errors that ultimately let to their initial version of geth rebelling on them.

I don't the other races will be too keen on Quarians trying their hand at it a second time. Though that idea do seem plausible. But I just feel like Cerberus has their greasy little hands in this somewhere. I don't think they'll play a big role like in the trilogy though.

this was another great point i forgot to mention in my thread, but one I noticed no one else had made a thread about. good catch. this works great with many accepting that geth could infiltrate, even though they dont infiltrate, the arks/nexus, even if the rest of my theory is untrue.
edit: I do think there is a problem with your theory though, project overlord could lead to geth being in andromeda, however i do not think that the geth, even under an autistic organic VI like david, could be controlled, I dont think david would be apart of this but whoever they got to replace him I think would be equally incapable. I think overlord opens a door for the geth to operate in andromeda but i dont think it is by organics controlling them, at least not anymore than organics had control over EDI after she was unshackled... i do not think you can shackle the geth.

I see two possible easy ways for Geth to be in Andromeda.
1) Some made an arrangement with the heads of the Andromeda Initiative: they would operate as a mechanical crew for the duration of the trip while all organics slept in exchange for being allowed.
2) Some Geth programs entered the systems of the Arks and Nexus for curiosity or some other reason and were in them when the ships left, taking them along for the ride.

Regarding 1, a question to ask is why the heads of the Initiative would sooner explore this over the lower risk option of simply developing an automated system in-house. Even simple VI's like Glyph should be able to do the job. The geth being invasive stowaways would make more sense, but then the question is, once they're included, where does the story go from there? |

Well, they do have reason to leave: They know of the Reapers (not just Shepard's word, they have actually seen them, they KNOW!) and they don't know if they can win against them (even with organic help!), especially since they have to know that the Quarians will eventually come back (and attack them, which will further weaken them - even if they were to win against the Quarians!) So yeah: Plenty of reasons to leave  - especially if you are a race that is logical and always has a backup plan! greetings LAX |
