I think I would need to get my hands on the character creator first. I seem to have this running tendency to create the same characters in every game. Maybe I would try something new for once, or maybe I'd start by recreating my favorite Shepard. But if they still didn't add long hair, I'm gonna have to sigh first.

A refreshing thread amidst all the dross we've had, of late.

I'm not really sure who my first Ryder will be. I'll almost definitely end up playing an Adept, though it will be a tough choice. I'll be very eager to see biotics, but I'll really want to see the gunplay in all its glory, too. It will be a tough decision. It will be Adept, Soldier, Infiltrator or Sentinel for my first playthrough. Way to narrow it down, right?

I always end up playing the "good guy" in semi-realistic games like this. I can't help myself. It's who I am. I'm no fool, but I try to do the right thing whenever possible. I like when games at least make this tricky, making the "high road" hard to discern. Hopefully, MEA will have some of that.

 

Thanks! Yes, the big sea of negativity needs some counterpoints to it, and it's always fun to chat about characters and ideas behind them! I'm hoping your class choice is made a bit crazier (and maybe easier?) with the addition of new classes/variations on the ones from the original series.

 

I usually play mostly Paragon myself, I've tried a lot of renegade playthroughs but I don't ever get though them. I do like when they can manage to design decisions that aren't clear cut or have no real answer, or ones that REALLY make you sit and think and can't progress until you take hours or days to think on it. I remember there was a class quest for a character in another game (leaving vague to avoid spoilers,) and it gave you two options. The first option was the quick way out and sacrificed tons of lives....maybe. You might be able to do the thing in time to avoid the death, but it wasn't certain.

 

The second option was much harder to do but had a higher chance that no one would get hurt...but actually doing it would be almost impossible. There was an added element that made it harder to decide, because you aren't given any indication that either would actually WORK and one option gave the bad guy access to a really dangerous weapon while the other didn't, so save lives now or later. It was hard because unless you meta game it and look up the info, you have no way of knowing if you get to stop him later from using the weapon or not based on the choice, and I had a REALLY hard time deciding. Almost like the Spider-man scenario of save your girlfriend or the bus full of kids and not enough time for both, really.

I'm gonna name them Noah, because we arrive to Andromeda on an ark. Not sure what class I'll choose because I'm not sure what the classes will be like in Andromeda, but I might choose Sentinel.

I think I really want to know the voice actor before I do the names. But...

 

Finn Ryder - Male redhead Adept, probably mostly a Paragon, although I make no promises to ignore Renegade interrupts (Paragon Interrupts had nothing on them)

 

Stacy Ryder - Female brunette Infiltrator. Probably mostly Renegade, although since that will be my second playthrough I hesitate to commit to that. A lot of Renegade decisions in ME1 were just being Sith Lord-y jerkwad for no reason, and I'm not going to pick that. 

[The Dystopian Hound]

Wouldn't that be Gregor Clegane?

That's what he meant.

[sjsharp2011]

Nope I don't think that far ahead, I usually just google names at the CC screen. She'll be a biotic though, that's all I'm certain on.

That's pretty much the asme with me as well. I think I'll likely start off as a female adept but haven't decided 100% on anything yet. I'll be playing the game more than once anyway so it likely won't matter that much as I'll be playing the game and seeing all the various options eventually. Again the kind of character I play in Andromeda may also be influenced by whatever Shepard I have on the go in the original trilogy as I might want to go with a different class or character type from them. It just depends on the options.

I want a science nerd. Too bad that this is Mass Effect.

[RynJ]

I'll probably name her Valentina Ryder, known usually as 'Val'. Just to have two awesome space ladies in one name! I won't decide class until I see what's on the menu, but I'll probably make her a biotic of some sorts.

 

As for personality, I actually want to run with the "green" thing we'll apparently have going on this game. She'll be competent but also overly cocky, probably snarky too, because she hasn't faced the true trials and tribulations of leadership yet. I imagine her being somewhat "Paragade" at first. Hopefully the events of the game will be intense enough that she'll get her butt handed to her and be forced to grow and become a more mature and capable leader.

I know that feeling all too well. I mean, there's talk that we might be an explorer first, soldier second, at least to start with, which gives me some hope... But then I remember that BioWare generally aren't into the idea of the protagonist being the one doing the science-y lore info dumps, so probably not.

[Lady Artifice]

Eve Ryder will be probably be an adept, especially if they have Reave as a combat ability. I'll decide on her interests and specialties as I know more about the role she plays in the game. I think I'd like her to be a medic, and to love "the old vids." 

 

I know she'll probably be blonde. My Shepard was a redhead, and I tend to make my protagonists one or the other.

There's a few posters going for the same name. We should compare pics once the game is out.

Sounds good to me! And we can all pat each other on the back for our collective great taste.

Okay, I laughed pretty hard at that. True enough, true enough.

@Lady. Eve Ryder does have a very pretty ring to it. Fitting too, given the apparent circumstance the lady Ryder is in.

[SmilesJA]

From what information we received, my Ryder will be solider, armed to the teeth.

[KotorEffect3]

Don't know what I will name Ryder, not even sure what gender I will play first time through, will try to make decisions based on my gut instead of Paragon or Renegade.  One thing I know for sure going to be a vanguard charging my way through Andromeda.   Going to show those Andromeda natives how it is done in the Milky Way.  Milky Way pride ftw

[SardaukarElite]

If I go for the historical tribute name then Lydia. Otherwise, I don't know, it might depend on how good the default name is.

I wouldn't be surprised is it was John or Jane. Like doe.

Well that would be boring.

First names don't matter anyway.

I assume that is how it is done in the Milky Way: https://www.youtube....6UG0sGk#t=1m22s

 

Anyway, my Ryder will be a male vanguard who will do what is necessary for victory.

[themikefest]

My main character will be a soldier/ruthless

[Shinrai]

I probably call my femRyder Samantha after the italian female astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti (she holds the records for longest single spaceflight by a woman and for the longest uninterrupted spaceflight of a European astronaut). I am not italian though but i like her for being the first espresso brewing person in space, too

 

Edit: Would be half asian or a native american themed Ryder (if that would be possible in CC). Played vanguard & soldier in ME most of the time - if it is possible and well executed i will play vanguard or soldier in ME:A again.

[Derrame]

is "Ryder" the surname? anyway, i'll try to create the default male Shepard, but if it doesn't fit, because the surname is indeed ryder, then i'll go with the default male character, paragon first, then renegade, then paragon again i think, i have no idea what will be the story about so there is not much to analyse right now

I think red is cuter in general, IMO...

[Hellion Rex]

Jace Ryder, for me. Pale blonde and blue eyes, most likely an adept.
