Bring back the Krogan.

I think what you are forgetting here is that the Andromeda Initiative is an organisation that people joined not something that they were forced to do  
Any Turian's who signed up to the AI would have to be ok with a human in charge because Jien Garson was in charge of the whole thing, if they weren't okay with that they wouldn't have joined.
Any Krogan that joined would have to be looking for something different and had to be okay with men & women living together because that was the point. And by reading the notices in New Tuchanka, we know that they were having some adjustment issues that they were working through.
The Nexus had a pretty clear line of succession, most of the Matriarchs on the Nexus were probably in Jien Garson leadership team and they all died,  as did the Asari Pathfinder. Peebee also says that alot of Matriarchs can be very stuck in their ways, which backs up what Aethyta said about them in ME2, so how many would join up in the first place? Probably not that many.

The Andromeda Initiative is not like the Citadel Council, it didn't form over thousands of years, it was purpose built and driven forward by Jien Garson and her inner circle. People were specifically selected & recruited for it or applied and were vetted.  Anyone who was willing to make the journey would have to be a more unsual memeber of their species. 

Hold on…our introduction into the asari was a space prostitute. C'mon.

what makes you think we won't be talking characters in MEA 10 years from now? 

I thought it was implied by your statement 'and yet we're still talking about her' the implicating being that we wouldn't be talking about MEA Asari in 10 years time. 

If you didn't mean to imply that, then my mistake. 

All fair points.

I forgot about those terminal posts (some of them were really funny!)

Still...even with some hard-core vetting, I imagine it would be hard for Krogan to let go of what, almost 1000 years of being oppressed? (sorry, don't know when the rachni wars were off the top of my head).  And I would also imagine that many of the Krogan came for change to cure the genophage more than anything else, which was supposed to happen while they were in cryo. And some resentment/prejudices are still there...look at how Tann talks about the Krogan, for example. Look at Spencer.  And Krogans seem to me to be more of the grudge-holding types.  

But I guess it is not even the logic of it that bothers me.  It is the somewhat wasted opportunity to touch on some of the more sensitive issues that plaque the Milky Way species, and to offer a more complete picture of who these folks are for new players. Nonetheless, I do think the Krogan were fairly well portrayed in this game, overall.  Hell, at least they all looked different from one another!

Anyone ever see Demolition Man? Maybe the krogan got cryo-hypnotized to be lamer more productive members of the expedition.

Would legit laugh if that was revealed.

That's a little generous. The trilogy had some pretty nice variation and interesting characters for the fanservices space babe race, from the brainwashed public figure to the young and naive acheologist to Scarface in space minus the drugs.

MEA's memorable asari thus far  is the one time they got one of the sexiest actresses of the time with both genuine talent and nerd cred over 9000 and completely squandered her, the Hamburgler that turned out better than most people expected and the Attack of the Clones otherwise.

I have loved the Krogan since I met the first one all those years ago and that didn't change in ME:A until last night and now I am not sure what to think. I went up to the quest Hunting the Archon before I stopped pushing forward and turned all my attention to the planets we can go to. Elaaden was the last one for me and up to and through to the end of that planets questline I was pro Krogan and I didn't hide that fact. Then I did the Hunting the Archon quest and now things are all up in the air and for those who have done that quest know why.

I can accept the fact that they would be upset with my choice and it wasn't one that I made without some thought but all of the work I had done for the Krogan people and for Drack and Kesh none of it seemed to even matter or more likely remembered. I don't even get the chance to explain why I did what I did. All I hear was how everyone still has it out for the Krogan and no one cares blah blah blah. Now Drack won't even talk to me and even passive-aggressively threatened me and this has broken my heart. For the first time in a LONG time I am actually considering loading an old save and redoing that mission and picking the other choice just so I can have my friend back.

I doubt it matters but for those that know what I am talking about could I get Drack to like me again if I had saved Elaaden until after Hunting the Archon quest?

Could someone explain that?  I'm not up to date on whatever it is he is referring to here. 

Ah I had no idea that Natalie VA'ed Lexi. Thanks.
