Which Normandy do you prefer, SR1 or SR2?
Short answerSR2, especially its Mass Effect 2 version, for its accommodation and more functional layout, although both ships' cockpit arrangements attract criticism.
NotesNormandy SR2 is the preferred fictional ship, particularly its Mass Effect 2 version. Counting beds against crew numbers provides one practical way to examine both ships, and both are said to provide matching totals. SR2 also receives praise for its apparently more sensible and functional internal layout. The projecting cockpit attracts criticism in both versions, so the preference does not amount to approval of every design choice.
