Does she ever comment on the Rachni?

Yeah do anyone know if Tali commented on the choice you made in Noveria?

[Troodon80]

Well this is all I could find in the audio files; There is no mention of anything else with regard to your choices(Noveria, etc.):

"I watched your face as Lieutenant Alenko died on Vermire."

"I watched your face as Chief Williams died on Vermire."

"I watched your face as Wrex betrayed you, as you did what you had to."

"If it were just me? I watched you tear into the Thorian on Feros like a force of nature, nothing could slow you down."

"If it were just me? You risked your own life to save the colonists on Feros two years ago, nobody else could have saved them."

Thanks for the info Troodon!

So does anyone know any information about Quarian physical ability compared to humans? Like, we can assume Krogans are stronger than humans, and probably Turians as well. But the physical limitations between human, Asari and Quarians has always been a mystery to me.



Can Quarians run faster than humans? Are they stronger physically? Better eyesight? etc. etc.



How about life expectancy? We know Asari live many hundreds of years, but I've gotten the impression that Quarians have about the same life expectancy as humans.

According to Grunt, who heard from Okeer, Quarians may actually be physically more resilient than Humans (microbial infections aside, of course).

According to Tali, they are apparently kinda Na'vi-like, in terms of being able to adapt and bond to other creatures - at least with creatures from their home planet.

Otherwise there is nothing to indicate that their physical prowess is any better than that of humans. My impression is that they're a bit slower and weaker... sensory perception doesn't seem to be particularly better or worse.

I read from the codex that they have a slimmer build, so it's pretty safe to assume that, on average, they are weaker than humans.

How fast they are in terms of running speed...still kinda up in the air. Sure, you could say that less muscularity means less muscles in the legs, slower running. But you could also say that their slim builds would make them ideal runners.

[Collider]

The codex and/or books seem to imply that Quarians are smaller/shorter than humans (though in-game Tali is as tall/taller than female Shepard). But it's also possible that they have a denser musculature or bone structure based upon what Grunt said. But he could also simply be referring to the suit.

Most information sources say that Quarian life expectancy is equal to that of humans which I think is perfectly believable.

[Collider]

Great input Brodyaha! Interesting info. I have to agree that susceptibility to diseases might render their life expectancy lower.



@Mozer: Maybe it's biological lifespan? The quarians have only been living in suits for 300 years. It's reasonable to at least suspect that they had higher lifespans on Rannoch. Do you know where it says that quarians have about the same lifespan?

[Alienmorph]

Indeed, the quarians' lifespaw is interesting question. I suppose that they might live as long as humans, on Rannoch. On Flotilla I don't know... maybe they compensate the aging with implants

[antique_nova]

sorry, but i had to post this after noticing it. Collider obviously didn't mean this.
read the underlined bold part of the quote

that cracked me up, as for the discussion:

the Quarians only have a weak immune system, i think they should be living longer than human standards in their suits, just because they are more careful with their bodies and because humans don't wear suits to protect their weakened immune system when they get older unlike the Quarians.

So, compared with other species in the galaxy, I think their life expectancy wouldn't be as long. Maybe they live for about a century within the flotilla.

I believe it is stated they have almost the same expectancy as humans, which in game is at a good one hundred and fifty years.

It might be that Quarians on Rannoch had higher life expectancy than humans do, but living in suits lowered quarian lifespan down to around human expectancy due to their immune system as Brodyaha said. Would be interesting if we get to learn about this more in ME3. Though it's not very high priority.

Tali's 22 in ME1, yea. 24 in ME2.

[phonypapercut]

Keep in mind that a lower life expectancy doesn't necessarily have anything to do with biological lifespan. A high infant mortality rate would bring life expectancy below the age that a quarian who survives adolescence would be expected to live.

[Spartas Husky]

Btw, anybody knows where I can find a decent size picture of the poster bioware sells of Tali. I found one in google, but that thing is no bigger than a cellphone screen size lol.



You know the one I am talking about, the one she sits with a moon or planet in the back.

[Reaver102]

It was a limited run lithograph, they are already sold out. Have to wait for them to release it as a mini lithograph that won't be so limited.

[Runescapeguy9]

Edit: this is not mine. mine is still in the box waiting a frame.

The lithograph also gives some additional credence (though perhaps slight) to the ability to regain Rannoch or some other place for the quarians to live in ME3.

Yes. It has a nice backdrop.

[Collider]

The LotSB DLC was the big one though. I had some doubts about such a feat as regaining Rannoch(/etc) before, but what Liara says if you romance Tali is quite the foreshadowing.

[antique_nova]

I wasn't sure what time they were going to be sold, damn, 'i will find a way...'
