The story does pick up a bit through the game but is mostly there to serve the gameplay itself. And yeah, if your dad hadn’t died so pointlessly you might’ve gotten to know him as well and given him some character development but nope. Heck you’re not even given much to go on with the backstory segments given to you through memories you can collect in the game world (no idea how this works, apparently your father’s memories were scattered across the galaxy). For instance your sibling won’t wake up until nearly the final parts of the game, giving you very little time to actually get to know them. Which means your father’s death is one of the most unintentionally pointless moments in the game.Īnd while this is the biggest plothole I can think of to point out, overall the main story of the game feels really clunky and has some fairly odd decisions. This feels entirely pointless and frankly really contrived given it is shown your omnitool can repair damage to your helmet. However rather than fixing your helmet like you saw in the beginning of the game, your father sacrifices his helmet to save you. But activating them causes you and your father to be knocked to the ground from a tall place and your helmet cracks again.

You see, you discover some ruins on the planet and as it turns out, they control weather and living conditions on what seems to be the entire galaxy.

Which makes the upcoming death of your father somewhat confusing. But fear not, it seems their omnitool is capable of repairing the crack in no time thanks to nanobots. In the first scene when getting to Habitat 7, the first planet you visit in the game, Ryder accidentally cracks their helmet. In this case, your father Alec dies in order for his title of Pathfinder to pass on to you (rather forcefully). You see, the story in Andromeda kinda has this rushed feeling to it where it seems the writers were forced to write in some kind of tragic event for the main character.
