Unpopular Opinions?

Have I shared already that Eladeen should not have been made an own planet, but just had its quests line for krogans vs outlaws transferred to Kadara's borderlands? if I did already, apologies. 'Tis my latest armchair developer hang-up.

I don't hate any of the Nexus leadership, including Addison.  They're struggling to do their best under a very difficult set of circumstances.

I understand why they'd have some misgivings about young Ryder's sudden appointment as Pathfinder.  Ryder needs to prove herself, and has the opportunity to do exactly that.

I think Ryder's crew is just as well done as any of Shepard's.  I think that Ryder's ability to go to war with the army she has (instead of the one she might want) demonstrates a certain amount of maturity and wisdom in leadership.

While not my favorite, I think that Liam is a pretty good guy at his core.  He has some strong values, even if his judgement is lacking at times.

Jaal's VA gets on my nerves - though I don't know whether that's an unpopular opinion around here.  The VA really overdid the emotional drama, to the point where he feels like a really bad soap opera character at times.

Peebee is a breath of fresh air - I love her energy, and her passion for rem-tech.  So is Suvi.

Well, perhaps next time we see the planets, enough years elapsed to make landscape and population and problems more diverse, or simply leave one of them out. As is, the two are too much alike.

I hate Jaal and prefer Sloane to Reyes

I tend to agree with this, you know where you stand with Sloan, but Reyes is a greasy sneaky character, he uses your character from the get go, I go with the response for saving Sloan "better the devil you know"

To be honest Reyes feels like a fan service to female players. A charming mysterious dude with Hawke's voice. I don't like it

Ah, if he was, it sure worked. But there should have been MOAR. And, I hope, the Sloane route is satisfactory for those who did not like him, what with shooting him in the back and all. I think it was nicely done, unlike the fan service in plot armor. Obviously not as good as when you can kill them, but still, better than nothing. In a way, wrong fan service characters that you can stomp on a little are enjoyable, heh. 

I don't think it's an unpopular opinion. I think it is really obvious that they went too far with this subplot. If Gil was simply pondering parenthood because his friend's, Jill's profession, made him to, and asked what Ryder thinks, it would have been an interesting char development. Having it go into the "let's do it! Right now!" Was what turned subplot cringeworthy imo. I woul have found it just as odd if it were Cora or PeeBee that suddenly grabbed M!Ryder by the sleeve with a warcry of: "I want to be a single mom, do provide!", and I really never liked it in any of the soap operas that do that subplot.

I don't like it, either! They should have optimized Scott's scenes so Reyes was a fanservice for men!

Wasn't he?

I guess I really don't see it.  Kadara is a mountainous region with lakes of sulfur.  Elaaden is a vast desert.  I'm not clear on how they're supposed to be similar.  Now, if you said Eos and Elaaden were similar you might have something since they're both vast deserts.

That's similar to how I feel about the -30 C temps on Voeld.  I'm from a place where it sometimes gets even colder than that, and if you're dressed properly it isn't going to kill you in only a few minutes.
