Addison actually. I'm very interested to see what happens with her in sequels, it would be a waste to turn her into Udina.

Drack > Wrex. There, I said it. Not at first, but by god Drack just keeps getting better. By the end I just wanted to hug him. Never felt that way about Wrex and Grunt, no matter how much fun it is to have both of them in your squad at the end of Citadel.
Evfra is hilarious. There's an ever so slight hint of Malcolm Tucker about him.
Tann (and Addison, despite her head injury induced weirdness). The political stuff is pretty good, and Tann is really hard to pin down. Plus Tann's the subject of one of the best lines in the game.
I think Liam is a "realistic" character. Don't necessarily like him, and he is a total prat, but I've both worked with and taught people like him. While 'armed youth worker' is a bizarre choice of character archetype, Liam kinda feels real. Although he's clearly lying about HUST1; it's really a street dance troupe.
And of course Reyes is cool. He's guaranteed to be alive at the end of the game. Potential squad mate....
Avetus Rix is prime candidate for squad mate in any sequel. He's either drunk on Kadara or the durian Pathfinder; no reason he can't train up a successor to free him up for the Tempest.

Drack by a mile. Though Bane is a close second.

I picked Drack because as much a folks want to call him a Wrex clone, he really wasn't at all. I went into the game fully expecting not to like him (because Wrex was my absolute favorite)...but he totally grew on me. I think that speaks to his character development through the game. Here is how it went to down for me: - His initial intro was eye-rolling-ly bad (although when I played it again with Vetra on my team, it was actually kinda humorous). - Initial convos - uggg - loves his clan, is a hardened warrior, blah blah blah Krogan blah - Oh? He has a granddaughter? Ugg, Bioware's cheap attempt at feels. I am not buying it! He is bland! - His loyalty mission - awww...he really likes that botanist kid, meethinks. Wait...I am not supposed to like Drack! Gah! - Banter with Jaal on Veold? - I wonder who broke his heart? Ok, Ok...he has some layers. Still, just Wrex 2.0 - Banter with Vetra on Kadara? - He is pretty damned funny - Why did this ancient ass Krogan come here? All that he has seen, all that he has done... - Bar fight - Gah! This guy is the shit! - Scene with Lexi - Nooooo! Drack, I love you! *sniff* - Final scene with Kesh - Oh God, Bioware is going to kill him in the next game. I just know it. Don't take him from me!!!!! So...yeah. I think that character earned it. Not one other person on my crew grew in that way through the game. Peebee's "growth" was ham-fisted as hell, Liam remained moronic throughout, Cora was the same from start to finish, Vetra was a yawn-fest, and Jaal actually became less interesting with each interaction. Drack was the only character that I grew to genuinely like. I also liked Reyes, but I was always a sucker for Zevran in DAO. Also...I hope we get more interactions with Avitus and Captain Dunn in future games. And Bain was a fun treat!! Yeah Drack is pretty awesome. I particularly like having him with Peebee while driving the Nomad. Their banter is pretty hilarious. Notably, Peebee remarks that Drack will live about as long as the human members of the crew provided he doesn't get himself killed in battle. So hopefully Bioware won't kill him off in the next game. As for Reyes, i like the dude. He's a lovable rogue. I befriended him with Scott but i'm on my Sara playthrough now and i'm doing everything opposite this time around. Shame, Reyes would have been a decent romance option for Sara but this time around i have to keep Sloane alive

Besides what matters is that it wasn't her call to make. Pathfinder teams have a command structure with pathfinder being the one who decides. Cora mentions this when Jaal fist comes aboard, that the team goes where the pathfinder decides, so we know there is a proper command structure. Sarissa might be a good combatant but she is a terrible leader/pathfinder. Its even more hilarious when Avictus a former spectre tells you what being a pathfinder means. Finally we see what happens to the AI due to not having a proper command structure and people going their own ways. So yea Vederia for the pathfinder. When i played that quest the first time i went with Sarissa but on replaying the quest and actually paying attention is what convinced me that she is a idiot, kinda like Liam who should be removed for bloody treason but sadly we cant. Treason in a civil operation, I really doubt it.

Voting for both Ryders, since whoever you play, I want the sibling to have a bigger role in the future. Also both Reyes and Sloane, since although Sloane isn't very interest per se, I want that questline to have consequences for both choices you can make. Raeka and all the Turians listed also deserve more attention.

I like Sloane's right-hand-turian, forgot his name off the top of my head. Don't think he has a significant part to play, but his interactions with Ryder are top drawer, and he's got attitude.

As much as I enjoy Drack banter, he's just another version of Wrex. I'd have preferred everyone to be clones of Javik. Much more entertaining.

Thats the god damn problem. The tone and what the setting says do not match at all. You cannot have a hammy party boat when your entire initiative is at the risk of dying due to lack of resources and many more and still in cryo. When everything is going to crap a lighter tone is not justified at all.

I guess I can see the similarities between raising a granddaughter and killing your father.

More often than not I forget they're different characters. Even their backstories and journey are similar. The main difference aside from their exterior is their age. Their main character arcs are completely different. Drack may want what's best for his people, but so does every character. Wrex's primary character arc revolves around him uniting the Krogan and leading them to a better future. Drack's primary character arc is much more personal. He's old and struggling to come to terms with his own mortality, and he's reckless because he doesn't see how he could be of any value to the Krogan in their fresh start. His character is at a constant conflict. He wants to protect Kesh and help safeguard her future, but he doesn't know how. He's constantly at risk of death whether it's a result of old age or his own recklessness. Despite this, he doesn't get the death he wants (or the death he should have had by now). We see him develop over the course of the game, and he slowly finds his own purpose in Andromeda. How are the two the same in any way?
