Depends. Who else is going? There are plenty of times I look around at the world today and think...
... but if they are just going to ship all the crazies along with me I'll just stay here.

Considering that the game leaves strong impression that only most incompetent, stupid, and retarded were sent to Andromeda, people who cant lift their finger without a pathfinder mystical space-jesus figure, I think I'd rather pass.
Also considering how much of the milky way is unexplored in ME universe, I can hardly see a reason for expedition into another galaxy except for the reasons described above.

Absolutely not. As of 2185 when the arks are leaving, humanity has only been aware of the very existence of alien species for thirty something years. Less then 1% of the Milky Way has been explored by all Council races combined. Let's compare the trilogy to the voyage of Columbus. The Initiative makes about as much sense then as Magellan attempting a moon landing in early 16th century. And I would've given both ventures similar chances of success.

Abso-damn-lutely. In a heartbeat. Considering the level of technology in the ME universe it'd be less dangerous than colonization otherwise would.

I am way too lazy for that, Even when someone tells me they want to travel with me at a house that is at one hour of travel I already know I will hate that.
So if the initiative happened I would stay in my confortable house in the milky way... and I would be among the first to get killed in the reaper war.
The only way I could join the initiaitve is if I believe that the reapers were coming.

Eh? My point was that what makes this planet a "garbage planet" is the human race that lives on it. Then if you look at it in ME terms, the depicition of the other races aren't that much better. So essentially you're just moving from one garbage planet to settle another - via a waste disposal unit in a space ship. Most of the human race is garbage, yep, but some are worse than others. Those specific individuals that I have to restrain myself from murdering on a regular basis would be dead by then and long gone, so would be an improvement. And what if those individuals that you hate so much decide to go with the Initiative as well? Then what?

Some notes though: - It is in the world of Mass Effect at the time of leaving but Reapers aren't a thing - You are a civilian not a Pathfinder. Personally I would, I have always loved the idea of traveling space to see new planets and galaxies (It was the one thing that I absolutely loved about No Mans Sky was having relatively unlimited freedom to go wherever you wanted). If I can get far away from the human race then I'll sign up right now. I'd sign up just to escape a certain person intent on causing WWIII.

In a heartbeat.
I'd love to leave everything behind, my life is boring, dull and mundane and there is no real adventure left in this world. No new lands to discover, no greater cause, nothing, its just taxes, mundane work and some free time to waste with meaningless bullshit. Hooray.
Adventure, exploration, danger, a fresh new start, colonization, a real meaning in life... where do I have to sign?

Yes, IF they had better planning, leaders, and contingencies. Waking important people *just* before reaching the destination is always a bad idea. They should have had a skeleton crew wake up 2-5 years before arrival, a full crew complement awake at least 1 year before arrival, and support crew waking up 1-6 months before arrival.

I quite like my life... But honestly, it sounds fun. And I've got a bit of survival/ construction experience IRL anyway, so I'd be useful. Helllllll yes. I can even make bread and, given some experimentation, beer out of pretty much any edible plant. I won't say I've been training my whole life for something like this.... But full disclosure, I did sign up with one of the abortive send the humans to Mars groups. >>
As long as dogs get to come with us. I'd say cats, too.... But they're one heck of a pernicious invasive species, so maybe that's not the best idea (she says, typing around an indoor/outdoor cat who brings back dead small animals with distressing regularity).

Of course not. I don't want to go to the next cluster right after we discover alien life here either, let alone another galaxy. It's stoopid.

I voted maybe. It really depends on various factors. Here I am no one. 26, no job or worthy education, no achievements ,no bright future ahead of me.Just basic every day survival and general average-ness until I die.So why not contribute to something bigger like colonization of another planet/system/galaxy? So maybe I'd do it, if I had no one in my life.Anyway,doubt I'd be very useful there apart from manual labor I guess.But then again if Conrad Verner's sister got it ,anyone could Screw it though, I 'd never abandon Tali (my dog).
