Mass Effect Andromeda Advice

Hi guys,

Going to be starting a new Mass effect run and will attempt a full playthrough.

Which of the Ryder models has the best animations? I played under 5 minutes of each and would like to know which is the best of the 2 for sanity's sake.

Also which squad mates have the best animations?

As you can all probably tell, I have a big thing for animations and want to pick the ones which trigger people the least.

Thanks <3

From what I was able to find after googling them. Male Ryder is apparently better polished than Fem Ryder. Male Ryder also sounds kind of like Nolan North so that's a plus. But with 1.05 and 1.06 they did fix Sara a bit more.

Squadmates animation wise, I have no clue. To be completely honest, the only gameplay I've done in ME:A was 10 minutes of SP and an hour and a half of MP because I wanted to stress test. From what I've seen from Cohh's gameplay the squad animations are clunky at times (like all ME games) but for the most part they're fine. Gameplay and personal preference wise, I'm probably going to run Peebee and Drack because I love Krogans and Asari. Plus, their powers work perfectly with the profile I'm planning on using.

TL;DR: Flip a coin with Fem/Male Ryder because they're pretty much the same (animation wise). I'm doing male Ryder for my first playthrough and if I do a second playthrough it'll be femRyder. Squadmate wise, just pick whoever because squad animations seem to be fine.

If someone more experienced at ME:A can give you a better answer, that'll be lovely.

Np, now that I have 50 hours invested, I can confidently say that the animations are fine. Take whoever you want in your squad because they're all pretty useful and it's no longer about need to fit your class.
