21 Playthroughs, 20 with Tali and one crying herself to sleep in her cabin at nights.

No wonder her character comes to life in your stories !

What did she hear about Jack? What's going on? Did you hear news about ME3? Are you talking about FF? TELL ME!

I just wonder what she'd have to do about hair growth with all the time spent with Shepard, afterall she cant exactly go 'brb I need a haircut'...


Step 1: Go to airlock/bathroom/sealed compartment

Step 2: Remove helmet

Step 3: Cut hair

Step 4: Put helmet back on

It would take maybe thirty minutes tops and most of that time would be spent sterilizing whatever room she is using.

She does change armor so I don't think a buzzcut is out of the question. Seriously. It's not hard and not very dangerous. If she can survive gunshot wounds and sex with a filthy alien then she can survive a haircut.

Bioware could explain both extremes with superior sci-fi reasoning Posted Image

Unless BW just continues to ignore certain undeliable facts, there can be no hair of any length within Tali's or any quarian's helmet.

If you require facts to justify why the Quarians could have hair without it becoming a constant burden in their suits, please allow me to give some. Hair does not grow at the same rate for all species or even amoung individual humans. Factors such as the environment and genes affect hair growth rates. The combination of a cold enviroment and genetics means that eskimos, for example, only have to cut their hair once or twice every year. Ouarians could have similar or even slower growing hair that only needs cutting very rarely.
It is possible that Quarians could force their hair to stop growing with technology like you said, however not every Quarian would choose to to do this (I know wouldn't). Some would simply not mind trimming their hair every now and then, especially on the Flotilla where clean rooms are readly avaliable.

If ME3 was going to be delayed for any reason, I'm glad it was because they wanted to add more dialogue.Posted Image

Hmmm, have you guys romanced someone besides Tali as maleShep?

I've lost track of how many playthroughs I've done, but I know that I romaced Tali every single time. When my Shepard says he doesn't want anyone else, he does it with his serious face on.
Admittedly I once tried to do a Femshep playthrough. Made it half way before realising that Tali is the only reason I kept coming back to this game. 
Now that I think about it, wanting a future with Tali is why I want to stop the Reapers. Screw the galaxy. I'm only saving it for a chance to see Tali'Zorah vas Normandy become Tali'Shepard vas Normandy, if you know what I mean. Posted Image

Yes, I've done all of the romances in Mass Effect, and Tali's romance was only one I actually thought was "good" on the female LI side.

Hey now, we get the conversation as far as "it would be a honor to link suits with you, Shepard." ...:D
I'm sad there is no Tali/FemShep s/s romance, but I really love the friendship they do share.

It might be the sig or something but I assumed you were a Garrus-lova :kissing: he's the reason I'll eventually play femShep. I made it halfway through Lazarus before her 'new" voice destroyed my soul.

As for what Evil Sarevok said about quarians cutting their hair, I think it's not so much a matter of possibility, but practicality. It's not like quarians can truly enjoy the luxury of growing out their hair. At the very least, the first moments they spend with their suits off would be spent fixing their helmet-hair :pinched: perhaps they might think that's worth it just to spend 45 minutes making themselves look beautiful, but it seems like too much hassle for so little gain, and quarians do have to think of everyone else and not themselves most of the time. "People could get hurt, maybe even killed."

Not yet, because it's been months that I don't play videogames because of my thesys. But I planned a FemShep+Liara playtrought for when I'll be able to play again.

The only one I've romanced besides Tali with my male Shep is Liara.

I might try femShep sometime.

I'm not particularry interested in having tons of different Shepards, I just want a canon male and a canon female, and considering that Liara was my main LI before finding out of Tali in ME2, I'll let her having my FemShep at least.

Ah, also in my very first playtrought of ME1 I 'manced Ash Williams. Quite a meh experience for me. Said with no offences intended for Ashmancers.

Forgive an old man, I misspoke.  I should not have said 'undeniable fact.'

It was, after all, just my opinion and not, as I erroneously stated, a fact.

To be honest, I had not considered that possibility.  Hair that grows much slower would indeed make it possible for the quarians to remove it yearly.  Possibly with a simple application of 'quarian nair' and simple washing it away.  (Bad joke, sorry. :P )

I was actually looking at it though my, quarian, jaded eyes.  With the stories I've written, I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out quarian ways of life.  Two themes that always seemed to stand out is 'waste' and 'resources'.  I will admit that shaving or some other, more futuristic, means of hair removal is possible.  But, to myself, it is more cost effective in the terms of resources to just stop a process that, to the quarians, would seem wasteful.  Knowing they will be in their suits for their entire lifetime, would make time used for self grooming both a waste of resources (time, energy, equipment) and very wasteful (time, energy, equipment).

But, your examples, show very clearly a different way to them to not only have hair but to be able to manage it without constant attention.

This is why I love the forums.  Different ideas.  I love them, I just forget to say IMO.  I have many opinions on the quarian race, many thoughts.  As is obvious, Tali is by far, (to me) the best character I have ever encountered in a game, and I have been playing them for a long time.  Garrus is right there with her but slightly to her left and a half step behind.  But, the only FACT I know about the quarians is that I find the race fascinating.

LOL, Garrus is nice and all, but I don't like him that way. I'm a straight male fan of Garrus (shock, horror).
Tali has always been my LI and on top of that my favourite Mass Effect character, btw.

Thanks for providing more insight into your point of view. Personally I'm at the other end of the scale. I believe it would take more resouces (cybernetic implants, hormone therapy, space nair) to stop hair growing than to simply cut it (pair of scissors and clean room) when necessary. 
We do agree on something however. The Quarians are indeed an utterly fascinating race.Posted Image

^^^Nice pics Flash and it's good, to me, to here the other side of the quarian resources discussion. I'm right there with you on the Garrus is my 'Bro' only thing. I'll probably get beat over the head for saying that, but that's my viewpoint.

Just a blast from the past here.

On shore's of old,

I'm straight too, that doesn't mean I don't wanna play femShep and make him quake in fear:devil: (seriously, she has no tact)

How come whenever someone says "no offense" what they really mean is "kiss my ass?"

I only have 1 playthrough (sad I know) where I romanced jack (obviously) and now you guys are making me

Only one playthrough? What, do you have a real life or something? Get in there, soldier!

LoL. But seriously I picked up Ash because I still felt strange romancing an alien the first time I've played ME, but she never appealed much to me as LI. She's an interesting character, but not so much.

The very first time I played Mass Effect, I picked Ash. She was a pretty interesting character but in later playthroughs, I either chose Liara or Virginity (For Tali=])

Personally I found Sarah more interesting. First playthrough I romanced Liara cuz I thought the possibility of getting with an alien was awesome. Little did I know that the simple fact didn't make the romance inherently awesome :lol:

JMHO, obviously. This is art piece is one of my favorites for accurately depicting all my ME1 playthroughs.
