Apologies if this has already been done.

Myself: emotional and logical. I'm not especially interested in making this a fun romp, but neither am I going to insist this is only a job. Taking alternating emotional and logical responses to things may be how I enjoy this. It also may imply less dictating on what this journey is, and more what I want to express of Ryder themselves. But I'll have to see when I play.

EDIT: What I want to express of emotional is that I'm very okay with being more emotional than Shepard almost ever was, and what I want to express of logical is that I desire to play an inquisitive and reasoning character more than... at least a long time in Bioware games maybe?

Not really sure as it'll depend on who I'm talking too and the situations we find ourselves in and of course the character's I'll be RP'ing. But if I was playing as myself probably a mix of professional and logical. But in that first playthrough I could maybe see myself using a bit of everything in the game given the kind of character my Sara's likely to be. So for example talking about her family she might feel a bit moer emotional. When addressing a diplomat or something she'll be more professional and when talking with her crew and chilling with them in between missions she'll be more casual.

... sigh; it's easy for you to say. I've made a blood oath with Beelzebub never to use anything other than 'professional' and 'logical'. In return, he offered me 'satisfaction with the CC'. I hope I've made a good bargain, but with these guys you never know, you know?

So anyhow, I'll only use professional and logical. No other option, regardless what the concrete circumstances would be. Because that's the terms of my agreement. With Beelzebub.

Casual/Professional with badass Actions. All guessing.

Unless you are more about figuring things out somehow, or about outbursts.

Heh maybe THAT'S why I'm avoiding Professional. (Don't know father, never loved the idea of making any of my father figures proud.)

Wait wait wait... are these 4 option the new Paragon/renegade conversation wheel? 4 tones - a bit like Fallout 4?

I did no know that, thought this was just a roleplay flavour topic. Disregard my answer, I'll assess every decision on its individual merits (while trying to be professional).

Yes we get these plus non-R/P flavored action 'interrupts'. No scoring unless there is more particular invisible scoring for things behind the scenes.

Ryder won't be as drastic as Shepard can be (or arguably was pushed to be) but the hope is that they will have more legitimate paths open which largely encapsulate most of the options Shepard could do anyway. Clearly when you look at Ryder you don't see someone who will be Renegade Shepard or Paragon Shepard, but you do see someone that will hug or shoot, talk down or scream at, charm a discount or threaten a business. Even if it may not be as often ... particular as R/P full path Shepard.

Lets hope they're interesting enough. That's probably why the sibling, SAM, and other stuff was added, after all.
