If Shepard doesn't romance Garrus, I'd want him and Tali to get togther :) They would make a cute couple!


To me, that's one of the more believable 'ships if Garrus is unromanced. I could definitely see it. That isn't to say *I* am gonna 'ship them, because I'm not, but... :D

Garrus did kinda seem to (fail) hit on Tali a bit in ME2... like the elevator conversation. lol
This reminds me of some spoilers I read but of course I won't divulge them here...

Tali: "I have a shotgun."

......I just had an epiphany. Garrus's tattoos and armor are close to the color of turian blood, so he must look really badass to turians. Like the equivalent of a man in a blood red outfit like Vash from Trigun or having blood smeared on your face like Hawke. Maybe that's why so many turians serve in C-Sec lol.

Ok I shall ask one more question then I will be happy to wait a further 7 weeks , is there a lot of femshep/garrus dialogue? Don't give an exact number of conversations though ^_^



Yes, there is quite a bit. :)


*dances*

For me, ME3 will also be the first time to hear Garrus voiced by Brandon Keener (ME1+2 were localized versions).

The anticipation is killing me.


He does a brilliant job, I think. Garrus has the sexiest voice of any video game character I've ever heard. Not even sure what I like about it, but it's addictive to listen to. I was hooked half way through my first ME1 run.

It's pretty sad, but the main thing that has me so hyped for ME3 is Garrus. What am I going to do when the trilogy is over?

We can only hope that any Mass Effect games after the Shepard trilogy have an equally appealing Turian character in them. Though I'm still pushing for an RPG just about Garrus on Omega.

I think it's just how smooth his articulation is, he always sounds suave when he talks. I laughed so hard when I saw Brandon in that beer commercial during the superbowl. I immeadiately imagined Garrus and Shepard as the two guys.

I have to give Bioware's casting people huge props for this...they find VAs with incredibly awesome (and sexy) voices. I personally think Gideon Emery can give Mr. Keener a run for his money in some contexts, but hey, as long as they don't voice LIs in the same game, I'm ok, right? 

Right? :whistle::P

Edit: Overall, I agree with the post about Brandon Keener's overall articulation and speech - there, I think he's a clear favorite of mine.

God, Brandon Keener's voice is so sexy...and that filter they added to it for the turian voice. *melts* I can't imagine Garrus with any other VA.

I agree about BioWare's ability to pick great voice actors. They all fit the characters perfectly, they're memorable, and the voices are a major part of why these characters seem so real and emotional.

I know someone already answered, but I would like to add that the amount of romance scenes seemed to be much more than ME2. I don't think anyone will say they didn't get enough content, as that was the main complaint after ME2.

Indeed. Xenophiles unite! (And yes, my inner fangirl is squeeing like crazy even if I likely won't get to start ME3 until Spring Break, which is a couple of weeks post launch..)

This makes me think our Shepards should all have super-powered rings with turian insignias on them. Posted Image

Yeah, my free time is going to be completely taken over by ME3... that's why I'm trying to get as much work done before then as possible.

My MainShep must look like quite the human badass then, with her camo-patterned red armor. That's a good point about turians and the blue blood/armor. In ME1, I always tried to keep him in blue because nothing else seemed to fit, especially with his tattoos (the colors would clash). Now that I think about it, his ME3 armor is the same color as the one I picked out for him in my latest ME1 playthrough, silver and blue.

Do turians have other eye colors than blue and green? 

I was playing ME1 and I noticed that the turian who is arguing with the hanar in Citadel has green eyes. 

I'm just curious. :D 

Thank you!

There's definitely some with brown eyes. But it does seem like the majority are that bluish green radiant color.

So, I just finished watching The Pacific last night...and wow, Garrus' voice (Brandon Keener) popped up out of nowhere. So random. I couldn't help but think, "wow, that voice is coming out of the wrong body."

Hey there. Been lurking a bit after a looooong hiatus.  Ah the good old days, squeeing over the discovery of Gar's romance-ableness....discussions that were disturbingly hilarious...mountain dew... *ahem!*

Has the board heard this yet? It's some kind of awesome and I wanted to make sure. Long live the Garrus love!!!

Garrus’s voice is so distinctive and famous that when people watch Brandon talk it feels like it doesn’t belong to him LOL like garrus was in the recording booth doing his voice.

Who thinks Keener should invest in a little machine that puts a filter on his voice and gives it the Turian flailing tone? :wizard:

(jsut joking of course)

Just did “eye for an eye “Posted Image My import is coming along nicely.

 I brought thane along for this mission because I think it works really well story wise.  I make sure to take him along before he tells shepard about his wife so that the reveal has a bit more impact.

Thane as you know, was in garrus’s position ready to gun down a target until irikah blocked the shot.

I imagine it was startling for him to watch shepard step in front of sidonis like his siha did when he first met her.  The deja vu probably brought back fond memories. When thane talks to shepard about her later, I choose this moment for shepard to have a moment of clarity

“she woke me up”

“she met my eyes through the scope...and my purpose faltered”

Her words were able to get through to garrus despite his anger because she means more to him than she realized.  I understand thane still falls for femshep even if you don’t romance him (calling her siha) so I also like to pretend thane was being gracious despite his own personal feelings.  That he saw something special there and was trying to subtlety  tell shepard “garrus cares about you ”.

So do I! I've never taken Thane on that mission before. (I usually don't have him at that point...)

That's *really* cool!

@Hyrule Wow first time I hear that story played that way!
That makes for a pretty emotional roleplay session im sure.
Plus it integrates Thane's dialogue pretty well in the story without romancing him (which I usually find a lttle hard)

This is just a shot in fullscreen that I took from the Gametrailers site, I was trying to get as much of that other turian before he turned away.  I can't even tell what his facial markings look like, though, because the clip is blurry.

Garrus makes an amazing best friend if you dont romance him. I hope he helped your FemShep pull through all the ME2 crazyness without her biotic soldierboy by her side. We'll see if he forgives the VS for walking away in a few weeks;)

ok for the sake of starting a topic up i found something in the script i thought was funny (no spoilers promise :3 ) anyways i found a line that said

"If I hear one more crack about calibrations..."

Of which i can only assume would come from Garrus
Then theirs something i think Joker comments on when Garrus is on the ship....

'Hey, I know I used to rag on Garrus for being all angry, but I'm glad he's back.'
'There's a whole lot of crap out there needs a bullet between the eyes.'
'Plus, we might need something calibrated.

XD
