Then why don't they get an ark? How do the quarian expect to colonise a new world without a ship to bring them there? The nexus is a space station that will be immobile like the citadel, expecially once they start building its other parts. Not everyone going gets an Ark and Arks don't house just the single species. Krogan don't have an Ark and they're in Andromeda. People can hide a ride on other Arks or travel on the Nexus, after all. You're basing this on the krogan? I'll lay out a few points. The krogan who are going are from a specific minor krogan clan and they also have the modified genophage. So that means the children this specific small clan have will only represent about 0.1% of the krogan going. And so on, so the krogan going to andromeda, unless they find a cure will go extinct due to their warlike nature. So its not very likely the krogan are going to colonise a new world and become an independent nation, which is why they don't get an ark for colonisation. I believe the arks do house a single species, each with their own pathfinder and the nexus then has a varied species crew. But the 200,000 or so people on the nexus won't be the ones establishing colonies. They will just go to them once established. As I also stated in a previous post, there my be a couple of quarians on the nexus butt the people are gone, their culture is gone and they are unimportant to the andromeda story, all thanks to the ME3 endings and fan complaints. If there weren't so salty in their complaints and we did have a game in the milky way, then we might have seen some quarians escape their destruction at the hands of the geth or some quarians on their homeworld etc. But now thats not gonig to happen.

Such snark!
Point 1: So you are misrepresenting the facts and making outrageous claims that you cannot back up, for the sake of creating drama.
Point 2: When pressed numerous times to detail how dislike of the ME3 ending doomed the quarians, you failed to do so. This reinforces Point 1.
My work here is done.

The quarian civilisation does exist in the ME universe, its just that ME fans wil never see them again for reasons that I stated a few times now. Genius. I put to you to explain how then after the ME3 ending the quarian civilisation is supposed to be in andromeda. A question I noted you never answered. You just stated I failed to show how the ME3 endings doomed the quarians. The fact you never answered , IS the proof of my point.

How large or small their presence in the Andromeda Galaxy is depends entirely on what Bioware decided to do with them. We were never given specifics about how many members of other species came aboard the Nexus. For all we know a handful of Quarian ships were sent to join the initiative or joined it willingly, just like the entire Krogan clan Nakmor did. Five hundred or so Quarians would be enough for a viable population, given the technology of the setting. And Tweets along the lines of "Look out for them" and "You may be their last hope" imply that they do have some form of collective presence in Andromeda.

It's probably going to be a "we have a cure for the Krogan and the Quarians, but only enough dosage to save one species", resulting in another bloody Catch 22 in game where it doesn't matter which species you save, because you won't see either ever again in the Mass Effect franchise because it's too much damn work to keep running two sets of assets, of which most players will only ever see one half. Effectively messing up the whole Andromeda setting as badly as they messed up the Sol setting in ME3.
If I'm right on this guess, then good job on effing up your IP for the second time, Bioware..

Inside sources say they will have a flotilla of photoshopped, stock Google images of three fingered people. *gasp* Quarians confirmed! *giggles and shivers with excitement*
PS. I see no reason why one could not just say "Extrapolate" by itself, though perhaps "Elaborate" might have been more accurate.
PPS. I'm still curious as to how people complaining about the ending of ME3 directly contributed to the lack of Quarians in ME:A.

No, I'm basing it on Bioware already saying that not everyone going will be riding on their own individual arks.

I don't think we'll see any quarians. Or batarians, drell, elcor, volus etc. Only the "major" species in the series -asari, salarian, krogan and turian. I even think a dev said this at one point.

Dunno if my timelines are off but didn't Gillian Grayson head off with a quarian ship into deep space in order to find the quarians a new homeworld in the novels? I wondered a while back if there was some way we could miraculously run into a ship full of quarians (and one autistic biotic goddess) either whilst en route to andromeda, or even in andromeda.

There's a popular theory that the reason we haven't seen any Quarian colonists up to now is because they are most likely on-board the lost Turian ark (Both Dextro species) which will show up as a major plot point in the next game.
So no Quarians for now, major Quarian (and Turian) story focus in ME:A 2.

For the purposes of andromeda, the quarians are extinct. Fans complaining about the ME3 ending accomplished that. It ensured that we could no longer have games in the milky way. So thats your answer. Because the ME3 ending was just fabulous 13 hours ago theorigcylonhybrid said: Comments such as this for example killed off the quarian species and ensured their extinction in ME franchise. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Dear God and SalMasRac help me! I have to ask! Okay, you said very clearly, right here, theorigcylonhybrid... that "Fans complaining about the ME3 ending accomplished that." and you support this when you said "comments such as this for example killed off the quarian species". when questioned about this stance you asked, essentially, how quarians could have made it to andromeda based on current lore, i.e. no hints and no ark ship, but the problem is that we are not talking about ark ships and lore we are talking about how THE COMMUNITY of players, making COMMENTS on forums and threads accross the internet "killed off the quarians" as YOU said. it has Nothing to do with How the quarians get anywhere or why, and everything to do with what you said about the Fans being responsible for killing the quarians. The question I ask you: How did the Fans complaining about ME3 Ending Kill the QUARIANS and their chances in Andromeda? edit: after watching SalMasRac talk with you and see you respond like he was talking to a brick wall, I don't really expect an answer... but dear god I tried to make this as perfectly clear and understandable for you as possible.

Putting aside they are my favorite race, feels kinda silly to have a game about nomadic exploration not include the series most iconic exploring nomads. For the purposes of andromeda, the quarians are extinct. Fans complaining about the ME3 ending accomplished that. It ensured that we could no longer have games in the milky way. So thats your answer. That makes no sense. Andromeda happens because people left during ME2 and then centuries later or whatever of exploration and settlement. As in, ME3 is totally irrelevant to MEA. That's the point, because they screwed up with ME3 so bad they can't acknowledge it anymore. but in the setting of MEA, the quarians were still nomads, and we even know they sent out exploration groups to try to find new homeworlds. So its the perfect situation for Quarians to be present, albeit not a lot of them.

Or they rounded up exiles and those who decided not to go back on their pilgrimage, stuck them on either an ark ship or the nexus, and shot off across the universe.

The catch is, the Quarians have always been one of the "Major" races. Not in terms of being a citadel race, but in terms of franchise popularity. Mostly thanks to Tali being one of the "main" two (or three if you count Liara) squadmates of the original trilogy. hell salarians have never been "Major" at all, neither Turians except in ME3, and that's only because they are tied to the krogan.

Let's face it. The only ones complaining about a lack of quarians are the ones who stare at their rear end all day.
I'm pretty sure quarians were never held in very high regard as far as other races/species were concerned, so it'd make sense to me if they were left behind.
