Speaking of alien races, it was discussed by Techno Buffalo that the Salarian race ought to be featured more in the upcoming "Mass Effect: Andromeda." It was mentioned that it wasn't until "Mass Effect 2" that fans were able to see the Salarian race being featured the game. Since then, characters like Mordin Solus became popular as fan favorites.
