mmh... I doubt that. The timeline will not fit, since the Shadow Broker is Liara at this time ( if I am not complete wrong ) Why should she kill Jien Garson ?

I think the timeline could fit. ImageThe Andromeda Initiative was founded by Jien Garson in 2176. The events of ME2 took place in 2185, including overthrowing the old Shadow Broker. Alec Ryder was assigned Pathfinder and the Nexus and the 4 Arks left for Andromeda sometime in 2185. If the mysterious benefactor was the Shadow Broker then it stands to reason that the mysterious benefactor would have been involved in the project for some time before 2185. Jien Garson did state that she was running out of money before this mysterious benefactor stepped in and we know the reaper threat scared the Shadow Broker... Liara would have found out about the project after the old Shadow Broker was overthrown. I'm assuming that that's one of the reasons why Liara would have gotten in contact with Alec Ryder at some point.

And the latest progress of my playthrough. I've stopped doing side quests. There are a few left. One that's bugged and then there are those quests like the one where you have to scan all the wild life. I just can't bring it up to go back and hunt for all those creatures. Must be the heat heh So instead I finished the Remnant city Khi Tasira. I thought this would be the final mission, but apparently it's not Probably why it wasn't as tricky as I thought it would be. Did have a nice glitch during the final fight though. After a biotic charge poor Sharon ended up stuck behind a barrier This meant she just had to stand by and watch Peebs and Vetra take on the Archon's Sword and that nasty fiend. I actually thought of just reloading the last autosave first, but then decided to wait and see my team mates could handle it. Stuck...And the word is out: Sharon and Peebee are an item now. I really like Peebee's story arch btw. From a bit of an outsider who always had "one foot out the door" to someone who know feels she is part of a family and admits to Ryder that she's home *wipes teardrop away*
Also best to go climbing on Kadara with Vetra after locking in the romance with Peebee, because letting Vetra down seems a bit harsh the way that scene plays out now.

Awesome shot ! love it Peebee is fun - thats true well you could actually be right. But I can't still figure why Jien Garson was murdered - or why the Shadow Broker would order this. She had no idea who was/is behind the benefactor - so why kill her ?

Progress is such that I guess I'm now on the home stretch: I've made it to Meridian Think I'll miss Sharon as soon as I'm done Why doesn't the Initiative store proper guns instead of that crappy Phalanx? Surely Scott could have taken those kett bastards out! Was nice to get to play him for a bit though and see him in action

I must admit that I haven't made any progress in... about two months? I guess. It would suck if the mother of all patches would come and I just finished the pre-patched game. So for now I'm just enjoying the lovely Finnish summer. It was snowing in Kuusamo yesterday: In Kittilä there's still almost 40cm snow...

Finnish summer is looking lovely indeed Maybe I should book a vacation? I admire your patience, Tup . I hope we haven't spoiled things for you too much. We've tried our best to keep it under spoiler tags. I wonder what more the mother of all patches will improve, apart from a revamped CC, more animation fixes and fixing a few quests that don't complete? As far as the CC is concerned. Despite the obvious flaws and shortcomings the current one has I'm kinda glad it was there, because I've really, really grown to like how Sharon looks and I doubt I could have done much better with a CC like the one in DA Inquisition. DA Inquisition's CC had it's flaws as well. *remembers my poor qunari's rabbit's teeth at times* hehe I wonder if a new CC will have any impact on existing faces? Overall, since patch 1.05 the animations haven't bothered me that much. Sure it's not completely flawless, but what is? Perhaps it is different for other base heads, but this one (was it #9?) isn't half bad. Btw one thing that is really odd is that it was never possible in previous games to fully upgrade your character. In this game you end up with plenty of points spare. I've pretty much finished the game now btw. At least all the main quests are done Still have a few minor quests open. Like scanning the wildlife in Andromeda, which I'm not sure I'll be able to finish anyway. Either way, I really enjoyed this game and I am really looking forward to DLC for it. Or ME Andromeda 2 Although maybe they should release that when it is really finished heh

There is a lot of Rumors that ME Andromeda 2 is put on a long long hold. Its about the lots of complaints and hate in the fan base. So I am worried we may maybe never see this story continue Tup good to see you are well. As you see I enjoy the game like GroundSquirrel. I really played games which were worse then Andromeda - despite the flaws. Your summer looks ... mmmh... cool airish. We have here since some days very hot summer with the usual numbers of Thunder/hailstorms ....

Have the actually talked what's going to be in the new patch? I'll assume that there's at least one since they have said that they are planning to improve the CC. Plans can change though... It sounds nice that it's possible to max it all. I don't like it that much when you really have to choose between two favourite skills because not enough points.

We have here since some days very hot summer with the usual numbers of Thunder/hailstorms .... They could reboot the series again. Or... I'd actually like them to see them start again from just before the ME3 ending so that the start would be ME3's ending. ME3's ending is so insane that they could fix it in numerous ways (i.e. star kid and everything after that was just a hallucination but in any case Shepard succeeded in taking the Reaper's down but died). Much better weather coming soon:

I don't like it that much when you really have to choose between two favourite skills because not enough points. Yeah it is nice, but it makes the 'you have unused skill points' messsage useless. Even your squadmates have more skill points than they could ever need. There is a lot of Rumors that ME Andromeda 2 is put on a long long hold. Its about the lots of complaints and hate in the fan base. So I am worried we may maybe never see this story continue I really hope this isn't the last we'll ever see of Andromeda.

I don't think starting again from just before ME3's ending makes much sense at this point. This game raises some big questions that need answers in a sequel.

Exactly - especially the Ryder memory Triggers and Dad's personal log render your Idea Tup pretty much useless. You will see if you play the game. I was at first glance not so excited of ME Andromeda - but now I really like the game. If you play Kadara after High Noon quest - the quest actually change, depends of Ryder's decisions there. Its not a awesome great game - but a really good game with some flaws. But ME1 / 3 / DA 2 and Inquisition had that too - so it is okay for me.
