Which crew did you grow more attached to? This isn't a matter of squadmates, but the supporting guys on your ship. Gabby, Garner, and Kelly compared to Adams, Cortez, and Traylor.

Which crew do you feel gave the Normandy more life?

Cerb.

They had more side-conversations you could listen to and people to talk to (Cook?)

Though, I like how BW had the squad members move around the ship.

Gabby is the engineer right? She comes back. Missed Garner though. A good cook on a ship is an asset. Maybe even worth a war asset point :).

Kelly vs Traynor = Kelly wins for me. Kelly was extremely important in ME2 because she fed my fish which made me like her a bit. Now that its automated, Traynor doesn't have the chance of making me like her.

Gabby was, but she gets no scene time as far as I'm aware. And what's Gabby without Donnell?

He comes back too. You just need to authorise their release as a Spectre then they will stay with Adams at the engineering section. The 3 of them even give you a very minor side quest to buy something.

Cerberus Crew, unfortunately. They actually had conversations with one another, even if you couldn't talk with them yourself. It made me feel for them a lot more than the Alliance crew that replaced them. For example, my heart broke alongside that one crew member who's didn't know if his family got out of their colony in time before the Collectors attacked it - going straight to joy when I found out that they were in fact alright. Then seeing the snippy crewmember, I think his name was Hawthrone, who always made fun of Gardener's cooking go out of his way to try to help Joker in the attack really endeared him to me as well.
Sure, the core squad is MUCH more alive in ME3 - and to marvelous effect. But the background characters on the ship, the ones without names and the like, were essentially regulated back to little more than set decorations. Hell, even Gabby and Kenneth were given less dialogue this time as well - which made going down to Engineering pretty much a snore fest inbetween missions. I miss their brand of snark.

Well, looks like I need to take a break from saving the galaxy a second time and free some bros.

Cerberus. I never even bothered talking to the Alliance crew at all in ME1. The only ones I even remember are Chakwas because she mentioned it in ME2, Engineer Adams because Tali mentioned it in ME2 and Pressley because I found his racist remarks at the Normandy crash site.

To be fair, I played ME2 first so that probably solidified my bias towards the Cerberus crew. When I got around to playing ME1 I was like bla bla bla yeah yeah I'm just here to save Kirrahe and Wrex. XD (Of course I've eventually made it around to playing ME1 for more than just that. . .)

But yeah, even though I wasn't a fan of Kelly, still liked her more than Traynor. And I'd take any of the Cerberus crew over the two annoying chicks between the CIC and War Room, too.

Cerberus crew. I mean, Kelly was all sorts of enjoyable to talk to, I dunno what it was about Traynor, but I just found her to be annoying. Ken and Gabby were probably my favorite engineers, so I was all sorts of happy to get them back onto the Normandy. Engineer Adams was definitely a surprise for him to return and that was really cool too, I'd wondered what had happened to him after the first Normandy blew up.

But, like so many have said, the crew felt more alive, like they had engaging discussions about the events that went on, like the Collectors taking Ferris Fields or the fact the Collectors were Prothean.

I really didn't get that feeling in ME3...

Cerberus Crew. Then again I like Cerberus and Mass Effect 2 a great deal.

I was more attached to the ME3 Alliance crew. The only Cerberus crew members I was especially fond of came back, so no contest really. However, I'll admit that the Cerberus crew were more talkative and that gave the ship more life.

Getting a lot of Cerberus here. And I must admit, I liked my Cerberus crew more.

The fact they were always talking is good. Better than a vast majority of silence on the new Normandy.

Mass Effect 2 is a good game and One of the reasons many fans of Cerberus and Mass Effect 2 is Cerberus Crew of the Normandy.

Traynor is better than Kelly. Other than that, Cerb crew. Where is my damn chef?!?
