Yes to all of this! I love the emails from the crew and just seeing them in different places on the ship having convos with each other. The message board in the crew quarters also has some funny stuff
I'm now about 20 hours into the game and I finally feel like I know the crew well enough to form opinions about individual characters, and I like pretty much everyone! I think Vetra and Drack are my favorites, and I also love the various dynamics the team members have with each other. Like you said, it's fun to listen to the conversations they have with each other on the Tempest and whenever I'm driving around in the Nomad. I swear Jaal has something going on with both Vetra and Peebee based on the party banter, but he ain’t getting Vetra, because I think I wanna romance her :)
But yeah, I've been having a blast with this game! I honestly feel a little sorry for anyone who decides to skip Andromeda based on the shit storm surrounding it, because I think the criticism is way overblown and the issues exaggerated, and people are missing out on a great gaming experience.

I'm so in pain that I cannot play it until I go back to Italy, I waited so much for it. :( Let me die.
It'll be something to look forward to! :) And you'll probably get to experience a more polished version of the game when you finally get to play it. Maybe the character creator will also be improved by then and you can make your Ryder way prettier than the current designs.

this really makes me wish I was better at video games (both as far as skills goes and as far as being able to commit the time required to them) and that I had spending money, because NOW I WANT THIS GAME
If you ever decide to spend some time on video games, make the Mass Effect series the one you spend it on! The original trilogy is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had, and I'm already having a wonderful time with Andromeda. It's a very large game, so it'll take a long time to complete it, especially if you don't have a lot of free time on your hands, but there's no rush :) You can also switch the combat difficulty to "narrative", which makes the battles easy and allows you to focus on the story and exploration.
