Weird plot inconsistencies in ME Andromeda

[ZeD [taken 0]]

I don't understand this discussion. You're talking about a game where almost no one in the galaxy believed in the Reapers until it was too late, and they wouldn't lift a finger to maybe do something about it just in case, yet in that same game it's totally believable that someone managed to approve, finance, coordinate and execute a project like Andromeda Initiative. Like I said, the entire game is a plot inconsistency. The game exists because the IP is worth a lot of money, but Bioware doesn't know how to continue the franchise after that abysmal ending.

The AI started well before the known existance of the reapers.
It's an exploration thing, not escape.

Actually the Quarians are coming, and they're bringing along Volus, Hanar and Drell. They had an issue with their Arc and had to leave later.

And if you do the Family Memories quest or whatever it's called, at the end you find out the whole reason the Initiative existed in the first place.

Exploring another galaxy is only small part of it and or a front for its true purpose. Basically someone out there believed Shepard's warnings about the Reapers and decided to fund the Initiative to hop, skip and jump the fuck out of the Milky Way before the Reapers arrived.

We still don't know who this person is however. We find out during the course of the Memories quest that the Initiative has some mysterious benefactor and that Jien Garson and Alec Ryder started growing suspicious of them. Jien's death turns out to be no accident like everyone thinks, she was murdered, most likely at the order of this mysterious benefactor but that's where that particular part of that story arc stops which really annoyed me.

We find out about this shadowy benefactor and that Jien's death was actually murder and then it's never fucking brought up again and there's no conclusion to it. They're probably planning to resolve it in DLC which is even more annoying considering it's something that could have easily been resolved in the fucking game.

It is pretty obvious that the someone is the Illusive Man. Considering that the mysterious benefactor has the exact same accent as Miranda Lawson in ME 2/3 and that that is unlikely to be a coincidence, she probably acted as the front for Cerberus.

That thought did cross my mind. But I hope it isn't, that would just be boring, to be honest. I think the benefactor would have made the trip to Andromeda because it would make no sense for someone to fund this extremely ambitious and costly project to escape the Reapers and then not go.

It probably is Cerberus. You meet a couple of their former scientists running an experiment on Kadara, and Cora is quite possibly the daughter of the Illusive Man, since they share the same surname, Harper. Also you can spot a Cerberus shuttle at some point in Kadara.
