Andromeda's Little Things you've just discovered

The Professional dialogue choice at the end of the Excess Baggage quest on the Tempest will vary based on what you know of the other pathfinders.

If you haven't ascertained their fate then Ryder will say, "We need to find them".

If all original pathfinders are dead then Ryder says, "They're dead, and this 'Ryder' isn't even the original." Suvi will try to comfort you by saying, "You've added new names to the list."

Not sure if there's a 3rd outcome if you choose to save Raeka instead of the Krogan scouts.

It's really easy to complete this quest early on in the game, so some folks might miss these lines. I appreciate it when the writers and devs go the extra mile to add these little details.

Kim Connors, Prodromos' quartermaster, has a bit of a past in the Milky Way. Not sure how much progress you need to make in the campaign for her to open up but after some coaxing she tells you that she was a millionaire of a larger corporation. One of her Asari rivals started putting her family out of business so Connors bought some kind of Asari insurance to protect her descendants for the next few centuries. Now she can rest easy knowing her rival chokes on bitter tears.

If you find the survivors of Hope and Resilience, then speak to Darket Trivian, she'll reveal that the Turian pilot is her brother. Family reunion right?

Just lots of nice tidbits scattered throughout the game, there's no incentive to back track and find them but still pretty cool. One of the downsides of the dialogue system is that the choices remain greyed out even if there's something new to hear.

So got some shots of the Cobras effect on the shuttles:





Also discovered the Batman easter egg:

Saw it on the net and was determined to find it on the Remnant derelict this time 

The shape looks like the batman symbol!

So when did the datapad appear in the toilet on the Tempest and why? I have never seen it in my previous play throughs and I often use that door to get to the sleeping quarters so I don't think I could have just missed it:

The intensity of the combat on the Defeating the Kett mission varies quite a bit depending and when and where you decide to deactivate the alarms.  You can also get slammed with even more of them if you opt to walk out of the base mid-mission.  Same with the Remove the Heart base on Voeld.  Combat all over on the various planets does also seem to vary depending on what issues you have already resolved elsewhere and how you have resolved them.

There was a lot of discussion but nothing concrete that I saw.

It seems to be linked to playing on hardcore or Insanity but when I played the game on hardcore I didn't get the cheese to appear but it may have been because I was doing NG+ not a fresh start.

Good to know, I discussed it with several people ages ago and the common thing for people who had seen it seemed to be playing on hardcore or insanity. I have played on casual, normal and hardcore and have never seen it so I wonder if there is a different trigger???

The other debate was when it appeared, it seemed if memory serves me that it was linked to visiting Meridian but people couldn't recall if they saw it upon arriving in Civki the first time or after going to Meridian.

melbella I am assuming you have to scan for it, yeah? I have just done the first trip to Meridian and it didn't show up in a scan, if I can find the time tomorrow I'll get back to MEA and scan again when I return to civki.

I can't prove it since I've always had it come up in every playthrough I've done; but if there are instances where it simply doesn't appear, I think it would be logically linked to clicking on the Spacex Rocket Model in Ryder's quarters since it's an easter egg regarding this:

Well I can't click on the SpaceX model, I tried scanning it as well.

I had no idea! I thought it was a DA reference, since that team clearly has a reverence for cheese-wheels. I was even going to suggest that it's appearance in MEA could be dependent upon DAI being linked to the player's EA Account.
