Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how hilarious the propaganda in the Cultural exchange is?
Some of the lines the VI's said made me bust a gut.

I can hear David Anderson's voice in my head calling bullshit on some of those VI's statements.

OMG. That Krogan/Salarian and the Turian/Human handshake VI's are just so...wrong. And generally I have yet to meet a Krogan who speaks like the Krogan VI. Even Kesh doesn't speak like that!

That sugar positive voice for Initiative general info really did the thing for me. *founded military outpost as soon as possible* "...when you pass by one of our outposts, don't hesitate to come in and say I surrender Hello"

Whatever you wish to say about Andromeda, you can't help but admit it had some great comedy.

The Initiative is supposed to show the lighter side of the Milky Way. A grouping of the people with possibly the highest ideals and desires for cooperation, advancement, and positively transforming things.
But this stuff (among lots of other things like even the blatant in-fighting) is to illustrate that no matter how light things get (at least temporarily - who knows where the series or even DLC will go), they won't ever get as light as this hilarious bullshit.

Ok did I miss something? Does everyone else have a random spot that has a grayed out VI that never fills in even after the final mission? It's annoying me. The outline has the profile of, well, Dad Ryder. I kind of assumed like it would turn into "me" Ryder after the conclusion and be all like "Oh hello I'm the Human Pathfinder" and then we would all have good fun and jokes remembering the Shepard VI. But no such luck.

Don't worry about us Krogan.
We're the smart ones, we want peace and a fresh start.....

I look forward to seeing what they add when more milky way species appear. Especially if both the quarians and geth end up becoming a part of the initiative. Seeing how they manage to sugar-coat that one should be interesting.

The whitewashing of history was really funny to be honest. Bet slavery and the Holocaust aren't mentioned in the humans history either.

I can talk to it now but it is still a gray ghost image. Its appearance never changed for me.

Considering Initiative left before ME3's events... have the quarians and geth even made peace yet ?
Also, whats the point in bullshitting the angara about how happyjoyjoy life was back home in the milky way? Sure my Shepard fixed it all up before Starchild came about, but no one in the cluster knows about that.
To be honest, Im not even sure I want the game to bring back those issues (geth, genophage) in Andromeda when Ive already fixed them with Shepard. But thats not the way to go about it.
With only 1 new alien race (the angara, as the kett are more like the collectors/reapers) theres not so many 'fresh' conflits to be had. What interspecies conflicts (or inter-planetary conflicts if we go with new settlements being more racially diverse) would you guys be interested in seeing ? Which should stay out of conflict?)
I wouldnt mind the Krogans staying isolationists for a while and staying out of the game. But I also dont see an other race being able to push for power other than humans. Now that whe have meridian. But Im very meuh on that plot twist. Could use some ideas.

But Im very meuh on that plot twist. Could use some ideas. Actually, there supposed to be many other alien races - Ketts are taking those foreign genes from someone, don't they? And Kett's cluster is not too far either - they fly without mass relay somehow within short period of time (Primus was talking about "going back home" as if she spent here no mere then a couple of years). Helios cluster as we know now is artificial and was going to be populated by artificial creatures - Angara. But the rest of Andromeda still should have some native species. So many possibilities!

Considering Initiative left before ME3's events... have the quarians and geth even made peace yet ? Naturally not. To not scare natives of course. Turians tried to conquer humans for breaking Council law, krogans got neutered for thinking too much of themselves, humans were given carte blanche on batarians because they weren't part of Citadel space anymore. But this time we come in peace, trust us, we are chill. Other species are there for flavor. And when game tells you that crashed Ark is apparently enough for humans to get a claim on Meridian - you know it's going to stay this way

There's also that guy in Podromos asking you if he should even teach Milky Way history. It's the classic whitewash. I'm fine with that, since it's the real way so many things work with bureaucracy.
