Traveling between systems in a cluster didn't require relays.

I do find it funny that the two asari on the ship do not get along at all. Reminds me of that exceedingly stupid "asari prefer to mate outside their own species" poo poo.

Mass Relay's facilitate travel between clusters. This what what we needed mass relay's to travel between.   This is is a Cluster. The Entire Andromeda game(unless something happens late) takes place in the Heleus Cluster. Not the Entire Andromeda Galaxy.

There should be a big point in the OP that reads as YOU NEVER NEEDED MASS RELAYS TO TRAVEL INSIDE A CLUSTER And is there really less information about the planets than in previous games? You have the codex and the summary in the planet scan interface, I can't recall other ME games being more comprehensive.

Uh they haven't changed these internal rules at all, though. You warped through sectors in the other mass effect games too? You understand that this game isn't taking place in the ENTIRE andromeda galaxy, right? Just a tiny corner where stuff is close enough for non-relay travel. e: beaten like the stepchild I am

If you bring Peebee out on missions with Drak you find out that, except for her father, her mother mated exclusively with other Asari, and all of her older sisters are stuck up purebloods, which is why she doesn't get along with more traditional Asari. Peebee's dad is an Elcor

I can't remember it exactly but her youngest older sister was already a matriarch when she was growing up, and Peebee ended up having four mothers who constantly told her that everything she was doing was wrong and that she should be more like them. Also I'm pretty sure on Illium in ME2 you run across a bunch of Asari talking to each-other that basically amounts to "Purebloods look down on everyone else for having non-asari fathers. Everyone else looks down on purebloods for usually being assholes."

And in my defense, I haven't seen anything about the dextro stuff yet. I still miss the mass relays.

I thought it was that they used three as an FTL lens to do the Andromeda survey. If they made one that'd put them pretty close tech wise to the reapers, which would be awesome. edit: Either way, yeah, only way to get relays in Andromeda is to have an AI do it.
