Mr. Bad Decisions and Lil' Miss Cultural Appropriation
Liam makes poor choices and Cora identifies a little too much with the Asari. Time to make sure we have their loyalty!...
Nick, Chip, and Kurabara are back to continue talking about their playthrough of Mass Effect Andromeda. This week they visit H-074C, which used to be a planet until the scourge destroyed it. They talk about how this was intended to be the Turian homeworld but in its current state it is comparable to the Earth moon. They discuss the various chasms and craters which can be jumped in the Nomad because of the low gravity. They wonder about the Exiles ability to build bridges and domes, and wonder why these domes were not available for deployment on Eos. They wonder if anyone on the Nexus knew of the Angara before our so-called first contact.
They talk about the ongoing quest to visit each dome to get part of the passcode for entry into the final dome. They mention how the final boss, a Krogan named Krex, ties back to a shadowy character on Kadara, Elora.
They also talk about the Remnant vault with the Tiller inside which allows for an increase in helium production. Kura mentions that he dislikes the Remnant aesthetic. They talk about what is arguably the hardest fight in the game against the Progenitor.
Next, they discuss Vetra’s loyalty mission. Nick mentions that he had unusual expectations for Sid. They talk about Drack protecting Sid during the combat. Chip mentions the villainly was cartoonish. They discuss the mechanic of looking into the next room and choosing whether to make the fight easier or not. They talk about how Vetra is overprotective of Sid. They wonder about Vetra’s expectations for bringing her sister to an uncharted galaxy. They speculate that Vetra would be protesting if Sid was still in cryo.
