Nick, Chip, and Kurabara are back to continue talking about their experiences playing through Mass Effect Andromeda! This week they encounter the Archon on Meridian in the big final battle for the Heleus Cluster! Nick begins by comparing the Kett attacking the Hyperion to the Reapers attacking the Citadel. They talk about the geography and geometry of Meridian as a Dyson Sphere. They lament that they could not explore Meridian more. They talk about Ryder getting cut off from SAM and having to play as the other Ryder with no powers. They discuss Ryder communing with the Remnant without SAM. They discuss the fate of Captain Dunn. They also discuss the other characters that appear during the battle. They discuss the fight against the Archon and the Architect. Finally, they talk about the Hyperion being stuck on Meridian and if that will replace the Nexus as the major hub of the cluster. Thank you for listening to Squad Goals – A Mass Effect Andromeda Podcast! Please send any comments or questions to squadgoals@mash.gg or @squadgoalsN7.mash.gg on Bluesky.
