Ryder's Personality: Poll

I tend to go with logical & professional for most of my conversations. But I switch to casual/emotional for situations where I feel compassion is appropriate. And once I feel like Scott bonds with someone, then I use mostly casual/emotional as well.

Mine is Logical/Casual which I ended up liking more and more the farther I got into the game. It makes Ryder seem like a bit of an Indiana Jones type, which I love and makes for a pretty unique RPG experience. Threw out the occasional emotional choice to people Ryder really felt close to or felt sympathy for (mostly remember them going to Gil, Cora, and Avitus).

I did a lot of logical and professional but also did a couple of emotional ones when it came to supporting characters in a tough moment like Jaal. I didn't do much casual ones except when it seemed appropriate to do some humor like "Liam, hold me" hahahaha.

Casual/logical, sometimes emotional for some characters/situations.

I went majority casual, but with mixed it up in specific situations. I was imagining Ryder as being too inexperienced to make good choices, but aware enough to occasionally realize that he needed to be a little more professional or a little more kind.

Casual Ryder gives me life. Not quite on insane troll snark Hawke's level, but some of the lines had me in stitches.

My other "axis" was logical, and I liked how the game didn't conflate that with cold or unemotional. It just meant Ryder was a science dork who cared about facts first.

Yep, just as I thought. Emotional/Casual Ryder's just adorable Ryder.

In my first playthrough I focused on Casual lines exclusively and I really enjoyed that Ryder. There's occasional times when I didn't pick it. Like when SAM asked my Scott about his romantic entanglement with Reyes, his casual line was saying "It's just for fun" which is not true, so I picked Emotional one instead.

When I started 2nd playthrough, I was trying to focus on Professional this time but they're kind of boring. It's not bad per se, but Casual is better for my taste. Professional Ryder's not the one whom I love to play as...

Logical/Casual.
I like, how people react to the casual answer.
I like to play an irresponsible/careless asshole. As much as possible, because this inherited position is fun with this viewpoint. My father is a pathfinder, You guys, sure about that I also will be suitable for the job? Okay, I'm in, let's play a Pathfinder! You wanted!

I tend to hit all the buttons and let fate decide since I checked out of meme effect 5 years ago.

I voted emotional/ casual only because it was my favorite experience of the game, playing with a mix of (mostly) those two tones.

I originally played (femryder) more inclined toward professional dialogue, only occasionally slipping into the emotional. After my male/broryder playthrough using emotional and casual choices, I Almost wish I had done so from the start. I say almost only because I'm glad I hadn't gone with the more comical route my first playthrough. The first time experiencing the ending really solidified for me how special and amazing I felt Andromeda truly was, as a whole; yes, it had/ has technical and even continuity problems, but I absolutely Knew, know, felt, and Feel that this was and Is a Mass Effect game. I'm not sure if I would have felt the same way had I played as a casual/ emotional Ryder right from the start.

But yeah, a lot of male Ryder's casual and emotional responses (to authority figures and the Archon especially) were fairly (or very) amusing. I haven't done a playthrough with a female Ryder making the same tone choices yet though.

And I hope I'm making some kind of sense and this isn't just a random rant to everyone but myself!

Pt1 - situational Scott
Pt2 - emotional/casual Sara
Pt3 (current) - emotional/casual Scott

I wasn't satisfied with Sara's delivery, prof/logic might be a better option for her since she's smarter. E/C seems to work better with Scott, I like the puckish rogue feel of it.

Ultimately for canon Scott it'll be logic/casual though with a few E exceptions for the LI (Vetra ofc). Canon Sara is still a wip.

Depend on situation.
