Apparently Casey said we won't see Tali's face? He could just be misleading us though...

Considering how many people have been more or less begging for the chance to see what Tali looks like under her helmet, I'm willing to bet this is tongue-in-cheek. I'm not sure he or anyone else at BioWare wants to put up with the rage from the more strident Talimancers amongst us.
However, if his statement turns out to be true, I don't think I, personally, will be all that disappointed. I'm a Tali fan all the way back to ME1 and a Talimancer first and foremost, and I'd love to know what she looks like as much as the next person, but honestly, I almost think we're better off not knowing. So many people have presented their ideas on what she looks like, and there's been passionate debate for and against on these interpretations, and I'm fairly certain the character designers at BioWare already know her true face, and I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't match any of the fan designs out there (unless they end up borrowing one of them).
I just think that we've romanticized the idea of her reveal so much that when it actually happens...IF it does...it might turn out to be a let-down. You know damn well that we're going to have people complaining that she doesn't look right, or there should be more of this or less of that, and the arguing is going to ruin the emotional impact of the moment.
We all want to believe she is as beautiful physically as we already know she is in terms of personality and spirit. But, maybe we're better off with the belief rather than the fact because it's far more meaningful and powerful.
That's just my $.02.
