I culled a lot of my mods last PT but the Stormi mods were the ones I used the most in terms of aesthetics and I have uninstalled the game so my mods aren't showing in the Frosty Mod Manager. Are you using Frosty Mod Manager? I think I made this one who is my favourite Sara and is a red head from Head 10 but the hear is part of a different mod but it's been so long since I made one I can't remember what else I did to achieve it. - snip -
I still don't get why they couldn't have just used the same CC layout as used in Inquisition since it uses the same engine and everything yeah I'd totally remake several faces if I was capable especially those poor Asari who suffer from massive same-face syndrome except for Peebee same for the Angara...I belief only Efra has a somewhat different face, everyone else is a Jaal and Moshae clone also what's with all those bare faced turians? I thought it was a social stigma in their society for not having face markings sorry...I'm rambling a bit
I think I said this very same thing when the game came out after playing DAI at least 10 times. It amazes me how in so many workplaces there is a lack of sharing of process like that but I am not a game developer so.....

So, after a few weeks of holding out on playing in favour of further expanding my items mod, Neville finally made it to Kadara. Well, he stopped by the Nexus first, to shop some additional casual outfits. He also encountered some protesters in Hydroponics that demanded that their relatives be woken up from cryo sleep. As the bunch seemed increasingly enraged, Ryder agreed with Kandros that the militia was to remove them from hydroponics. Forcefully if need be. Some lone fool probably left the Nexus after this, but Ryder had to to more important things: Beating Gil at poker. Ryder cheated, of course, and didn't tell him. After that, he took the Tempest to Kadara port. He feared the worst, but dealing with Sloane Kelly was not that bad. She let Neville speak to the Angaran traitor that had sold out the Moshae to the kett, and knew the position of their flag ship. Well, turns out he didn't know, but he had hidden a receiver that could be used to triangulate its position. Meanwhile the Resistance spy Sheena/Reyes found some clues about a possible Roekaar plot on that planet. The Roekaar were murdering milky way exiles and Angara sympathetic to them. Since their Anti Alien sentiment could mean further problems for the initiative, Ryder decided to help Reyes on this mission. The first murder scene he had to investigate also was directly next to where the receiver of the -then already executed- traitor was hidden. Reyes had somehow found out where the Roekaar where hiding, and Ryder together with Pebee and Liam went there. On the way, Neville almost kicked the two out of the Nomad, for their constant bickering and fighting - just like little children, ugh. The only thing missing was a constant 'are we there yet' Anyway, arriving at the Roekaar hide out, Reyes was nowhere to be found. But the Roekaar found Ryder's team and were about to do something stupid when Reyes arrived and blew up the captors. Ryder's team quickly dispatched the remaining Angara. Neville himself found that the ricochet Charger/Tempest really was no good at even medium ranges. Luckily he had also an angaran pistol equipped, that delivered quite a hefty punch. So, with the Roekaar on Kadara dead, and the kett receiver in possession, the pathfinder team is now on their way back to Kadara port and the Tempest.

I'm taking an online class about "Crisis Management" with my local UC campus as a requirement for my CPA license. It asks me to write two case studies for the midterm.
So one of the case studies I just submitted was about Mass Effect: Andromeda and its public reception LOL

Currently doing the "Journey to Meridian" quest so close to finishing up taking along Drack and Peebee for the space station, it's funny Ryder: what do you imagine the builders look liked Peebee? Peebee: tall and glowy...or maybe small, round and glowy Drack: so...like a radioactive Volus?
made me giggle
I have all the pathfinders up and ready, so yay me Turian Pathfinder: Avitus Rix Asari Pathfinder: Vedaria Damali Salarian Pathfinder: Zevin Raeka (sorry Drack )

I absolutely stink at character creation. I did 14 runs … 7 with each Ryder … eventually I got a decent female Ryder and a so-so male Ryder (not impressed with any of the male hair options) … which I went back and retrofitted to all my Ryders. That said, it's on me … several folks have created great Ryders … so while the CC might not be optimal, lots of folks have made it work. As an aside, I also really stink at armor visual customizations. I learned in ME3MP to go with the "road hard and put away wet look" … that has served me well in ME3MP, MEAMP and Anthem. Prolly pretty much any other game that allows customization. Good luck. Yeah it's not too hard t omake a cue tfemale Ryder. I do struggle wit hmasl eRyder's though . But I'v ealways foumnd making a good looking male tricky in CC's I ten dt ohave moer luc kwith making cute ladies.

Drack and PeeBee have the funniest dialogues I think. I hate that scene with drack after you choose Raeka over his scouts. same, I mean...he doesn't even give Ryder time to explain 'sides, we only hear about those scouts halfway in if Drack isn't in the active party
which also probably means he won't show me Kesh' eggs...I kinda wanted to see that scene, but Raeka is just so cute I can't leave her behind over a bunch of no-name scouts Congrats Did you find the off the path storage room on Khi Tisara with the dragon age easter egg and then get the Easter egg in that system as a scanner anomaly? Thanks
I...don't think I did I missed a lot of stuff in several vaults as well (couldn't figure out some of the puzzles to get to hidden rooms)
was able to finish up the data core quest this time around though, having Peebee in the party when fighting the Architects seemed to have helped help
I also grabbed another achievement this playthrough, Cryptographer (for finishing 20 remnant puzzles in one playthrough)
--
so after finishing a second time I just have on gameplay thing I don't like...and that's the fact there's no level cap I mean, what's the use of being able to fill out every talent if I can't do something about all those wasted points the squad members have?

Running through the same sequence again and again and then one more time... welcome to the world of modding. Anyway, congrats for finishing that. Just make sure to post it somewhere so it does not get lost. I would recommend some sort of wiki, but fandom's ME wiki is basically run by a single admin who likes the established policies quite a lot, so I don't think we could put it there if he does not like it. thank you, thank you *bows*
I currently have it saved on my pc and on the image sharing site I use suppose someone with a reddit account who's willing could also post it there... (I'd do so myself but I've yet to take the plunge to go there to make an account) but as I said, if someone wishes to share it somewhere, be my guest (I mostly made it for myself, but thought it'd be neat to share regardless)
as for modding...Maker do I wish I could mod this game to oblivion and back...first thing I'd tackle would be the same-face syndrome of the Asari characters I mean, what use is it to have an amazing character like Lexi (yeah I like her) be voiced by Natalie Dormer (who as I recall is quite good looking) if she looks like every other asari aside from Peebee (I also love Peebee)? Don't ask me... I have no clue about social media stuff and can barely manage my account data for a handful of websites. I also started to like Lexi a lot during my second playthrough. She honestly feels like a real-life "general practice" doc who also cares about the psychological aspect of her work, as opposed to the traditional "sawbones" style military doc. Chakwas was intended to be this apparently, with her name being an anagram of hacksaw. What you describe I tended to call the "attack of the asari clones". I'm not sure how this is handled for salarian or krogan NPC, but really all asari except PB have the same facial structure. I remember you posting a picture of a mod you used, the change of Lexi's face paint made it less obvious, but still. I like Dormer's voice performance, but since I never dabbled into GoT, cannot say much about looks. Though, to be fair, I guess she would not beat Katy Townsend (Suvi's VA) anyway. So just got finished, just need to do a few last quests and then its of to decide what to play next Decisive decision choices... I'm bad at those. so after finishing a second time I just have on gameplay thing I don't like...and that's the fact there's no level cap I mean, what's the use of being able to fill out every talent if I can't do something about all those wasted points the squad members have? I had a Ryder who stopped levelling at around... 132? if I recall right, after two playthroughs. There were a few points left after I got everything unlocked, but this was no comparison to the squad members, whose records were always flashing up with "points left to spend" after everything had been learned. Not sure why someone during development did not notice that and suggested a script along the lines of "make party members stop gain points after they have enough of them to unlock all abilities" I have to go around every place in the game still missed it two first times I think Yeah I'd also like if the leveing system had its limits as one is heavily on the demigod level side of powers etc. in the end usually I think it's nice how I still keep finding new things (at least for me) after years of playing a game think it'll take a while before I've uncovered every secret in Andromeda as well
The initial discovery phase is what I love about most games, but having some "Ah!" moments later is also great. For the last few weeks, I played and ass-old RTS game. Released in 2001, I started playing it early 2011 and still discovered some new things the other day, especially after messing around with some modding tools.

Released in 2001, I started playing it early 2011 and still discovered some new things the other day, especially after messing around with some modding tools. 1) yeah, the face paint mod makes some subtle changes to the faces to make them look a bit less like clones though sadly there's none that keep Peebee's marking but remove her eyebrows...it's either one or the other...then again, is that swipe thing supposed to be her general facial marking or are the eyebrows her markings like on Liara and Benezia? (bit confusing imo.) as for Natalie Dormer > link I think she's quite pretty...
2) I'm still in a Mass Effect mood (we'll see how long that lasts) so I'm currently reinstalling the trilogy (already have 1 installed + a few mods), busy with 2 and 3...with luck I'll have them all reinstalled by the end of the week
so gonna try and do a trilogy run...never got to the end of the third last time around
3) mhm, this particular Ryder got to level 67 at the end, I would likely get to the same level in a new game +
4) I remember replaying TES IV Oblivion a few years back and discovering a barrel in one the dungeons I'd never noticed before, I was like "huh, neat...more loot" also found out on my second playthrough of Inquisition that Solas/Varric have a comment during the prologue concerning the Inquisitor's race
though Solas only comments on a Dalish Quizzy, Varric comments on the other three (for a human he asks about where they came from, on a dwarf he comments about the Carta and on a Qunari he comments about how they must be Tal-Vashoth 'cause they haven't tried to convert him yet)

I like Dormer's voice performance, but since I never dabbled into GoT, cannot say much about looks. Though, to be fair, I guess she would not beat Katy Townsend (Suvi's VA) anyway. Decisive decision choices... I'm bad at those. I had a Ryder who stopped levelling at around... 132? if I recall right, after two playthroughs. There were a few points left after I got everything unlocked, but this was no comparison to the squad members, whose records were always flashing up with "points left to spend" after everything had been learned. Not sure why someone during development did not notice that and suggested a script along the lines of "make party members stop gain points after they have enough of them to unlock all abilities" The initial discovery phase is what I love about most games, but having some "Ah!" moments later is also great. For the last few weeks, I played and ass-old RTS game. Released in 2001, I started playing it early 2011 and still discovered some new things the other day, especially after messing around with some modding tools. 1) yeah, the face paint mod makes some subtle changes to the faces to make them look a bit less like clones though sadly there's none that keep Peebee's marking but remove her eyebrows...it's either one or the other...then again, is that swipe thing supposed to be her general facial marking or are the eyebrows her markings like on Liara and Benezia? (bit confusing imo.) as for Natalie Dormer > link I think she's quite pretty...
2) I'm still in a Mass Effect mood (we'll see how long that lasts) so I'm currently reinstalling the trilogy (already have 1 installed + a few mods), busy with 2 and 3...with luck I'll have them all reinstalled by the end of the week
so gonna try and do a trilogy run...never got to the end of the third last time around
3) mhm, this particular Ryder got to level 67 at the end, I would likely get to the same level in a new game +
4) I remember replaying TES IV Oblivion a few years back and discovering a barrel in one the dungeons I'd never noticed before, I was like "huh, neat...more loot" also found out on my second playthrough of Inquisition that Solas/Varric have a comment during the prologue concerning the Inquisitor's race
though Solas only comments on a Dalish Quizzy, Varric comments on the other three (for a human he asks about where they came from, on a dwarf he comments about the Carta and on a Qunari he comments about how they must be Tal-Vashoth 'cause they haven't tried to convert him yet)
Bit like me with Dragon Age then sa I'm starting t oget int oa DA mood might mix in a bit of DA in wit hmy Fifa an dF1 games I was planning to pla yonce I'm don ewith NFS Heat this time.

Drack and PeeBee have the funniest dialogues I think. I hate that scene with drack after you choose Raeka over his scouts. same, I mean...he doesn't even give Ryder time to explain 'sides, we only hear about those scouts halfway in if Drack isn't in the active party
which also probably means he won't show me Kesh' eggs...I kinda wanted to see that scene, but Raeka is just so cute I can't leave her behind over a bunch of no-name scouts Congrats Did you find the off the path storage room on Khi Tisara with the dragon age easter egg and then get the Easter egg in that system as a scanner anomaly? Thanks
I...don't think I did I missed a lot of stuff in several vaults as well (couldn't figure out some of the puzzles to get to hidden rooms)
was able to finish up the data core quest this time around though, having Peebee in the party when fighting the Architects seemed to have helped help
I also grabbed another achievement this playthrough, Cryptographer (for finishing 20 remnant puzzles in one playthrough)
--
so after finishing a second time I just have on gameplay thing I don't like...and that's the fact there's no level cap I mean, what's the use of being able to fill out every talent if I can't do something about all those wasted points the squad members have? It's easy to miss, I wanted to prompt earlier but I didn't want to so you had the opportunity to find It yourself. I missed it for at least 5 PT's it was only after much discussion with various BSN people trying to figure out the space anomaly that someone maybe melbella mentioned the hidden room and after I did it I got the space anomaly. Otherwise I probably to this day wouldn't have found it. Basically when you first arrive at Khi Tisara and head right there is a place you can jump off the main path to ledges down below (you really have to be looking for them) and get to the room. Once you unlock that it unlocks a system anomaly. Let me know if you pic's.

Not sure why someone during development did not notice that and suggested a script along the lines of "make party members stop gain points after they have enough of them to unlock all abilities" I think it's nice how I still keep finding new things (at least for me) after years of playing a game think it'll take a while before I've uncovered every secret in Andromeda as well

Released in 2001, I started playing it early 2011 and still discovered some new things the other day, especially after messing around with some modding tools. Pretty certain you can't advance past L132 The start of MEA is great and then ebing dumped on Habitat 7 was great but I wish they'd done arriving at The Nexus prior to that as it went from hyper excitement to dullsville there.

It also contrasts her rather large eyes, I think. Eyebrows on any asari are odd, aren't they, as we never see asari with hair otherwise. My uneducated guess? They were added to important asari NPC like the T'sonis and PB (with the notable exclusion of Aria, but she's got obvious paint at the relevant places) to make them appear less off-putting or unsettling as "humans" without eyebrows might be seen otherwise.
Ah, thanks. So I did see her somewhere beforehand afterall, but she made weird faces. Though even if I risk coming across as shallow, I'd say Townsend still wins. Cannot say no to her smiles. Anyway, enough of the beauty contest. 2) Hah, since I'm mostly done with messing around with that RTS, just playing one or two sessions each day to blow some poor fantasy-styled sengoku-era japanese warriors (and their horses) into bloody chunks commanding my overpowered Lotus warlocks and snarly Wolf druidesses, I'm thinking of finally getting into DAI again and starting my Lavellan re-play soon, for the first time on a PC of my own. On the other hand, I fret to mess up my half-a-year old PC with Origin. I usually need extra motivation to slog through ME2. Last time I used two helpful tactics. First, before everyday's ME2 playing session, I fired up ME3, got a savegame with the Citadel DLC done and the AAA accessible and did a few runs of blowing Cerberus mooks to bits with shotguns - usually using Tali and Jack as squad members. Second, I got around the to me very annoying "two shots to die, two seconds to fully regenerate" balancing by stacking around 30 health/barrier upgrades on Shepard using a save editor... as well as unlocking more weapon trainings. I do have some intense disdain for the crappy machine pistols submachine guns and I'm totally not sad about the Shuriken being very absent from MEA. 3) Well, it has been a while since I played, but if you use an existing Ryder (you can even change name/gender/appearance) and start anew, you keep level and items. My maxed-out Ryder was actually the second time she went through the game, the first playthrough was done by my friend before I nabbed her savegame. 4) This dialogue plays when coming down from this optional shade-occupied hill with the Lifeward Amulet at the frozen river/lake if I recall right. Yeah, I played the prologue quite a few times as I was trying out different class/race combos. For my Malika Cadash (Yes, I made a PC who is not a mage. If I play a muggle, archer rogue in this case, they are quite often dwarves.), Varric suggested she would have this "smuggler visage" and she retorted along the lines of "Might be so, but I'm not alone with that in here." She's freckled redhead, paler and less scarred than Harding, but older overall and had a bit of a tired look. But since I imagine her to be around 40... The start of MEA is great and then ebing dumped on Habitat 7 was great but I wish they'd done arriving at The Nexus prior to that as it went from hyper excitement to dullsville there. I hold Habitat 7 one of the best story missions of MEA, if not the whole franchise, despite some issues. But I'd loan my "Jerkrim" moniker from TES to the Nexus arrival stage insteas mostly because of Addison and getting wind of Spender's shenanigans quickly, but being unable to kick him until much later.

Especially as you have to look and jumpdown to find it and it can als obe quite treacherous doing so as you have to get your juimps jus tright which on MEA isn't easy at the best of times. as it's easy to either jump too far or not enough. That happens to me a lot when playing the game.

After returning to the tempest from Kadara's shooting grounds, Ryder finally received that mail from the 'firefighters'. So he landed right back on Kadara, drove the Nomad to their hideout and killed them Their leader got away, though. She planted some EMP bombs on the Nexus, so Neville got there as quick as possible, to disarm them. Knight, what she called her, got shot in the process. Just as Neville was about to depart again, Captain Dunn called. Apparently someone infected with an extremely dangerous disease had been brought aboard, and was now on the run. So Neville tracked that woman around the Nexus, until she stole a shuttle. Then he tracked her shuttle around the cluster until she landed on Kadara. (Haven't I just been there?) Somehow a group of Roekaar had captured her already, and were trying to develop her disease into an anti milky way weapon. Those bastards are fast! While shooting and blowing up the Roekaar, something weird happened: Nevilles primary powers are pull and warp, using the adept profile for secondary explosions. So, after dropping the shields of a lone trooper, the usual pull-warp combo throws the enemy up in the air, near the hideout's top level entrance. Then the secondary explosion goes off and killed the cutscene enemy-leader inside?! Ryder suddenly talks about the hostage being dead. That was weird, in the middle of the fight. After finally beating all the enemies in the area and their reinforcements, Neville enters the upper room - and finds a perfectly fine hostage and no kidnapper. But the cutscene plays out as usual, just there is not kidnapper, no kidnapper voice, no kidnapper to be seen. Instead, in the moments when the Roekaar was supposed to speak, the camera focusses on a random corner of the room or the lower back of whoever was closest to the previous camera. Ryder shot the already dead Roekar - or at least he did, I didn't hear a gunshot or anything - and the cutscene ended as normal. After that, it was finally time to go for the Archon's flagship. The fighting there was pretty tough. Thought I suspect that was mostly because the ricochet charger is showing its flaws more than the pros. With the help of pathfinder Raeka of the Salarian ark tethered to the kett ship, Ryder and team eventually managed to reach the archon's private chambers. Well Ryder died in the meantime, but that seems to become a rather frequent annoyance. After activating the map to meridian an exalted krogan entered the scene. Drack tried to talk to it, but it would only understand incendiary rounds. On the way out, Sam picked up the location of several other krogan. Drack now claims that he previously said that he was missing scouts. Liar, I may have a bad memory, but he never told that! Raeka was also in danger, but since Drack looked like he was going to help his scouts anyway, ( and they probably were nearer, probably,) Neville decided to help them, not the Salarians. Together, Ryder and the krogans escaped the kett ship. Pebee did probably too, she just seems to hide on the tempest. Neville will get Lexi to search for her...

Didn't play the game, but was reminded of Eos when looking at this: What do you think? Is the Spitzkoppe the inspiration for the rock bridges on Eos?

Possibl ybu there aer similar types of rock bridges in DAI as ewll. As hte Abyssal High Dragon i ssitting on one when you firs tfind her Also I think there's ome in the Forbidden Oasis as well.
