Do other characters send you messages too, such as Vega/EDI/Javik (LOL)/etc? What about non-squadmembers such as Wrex?


Yup! I got messages from Jack, Samara, EDI, Zaeed, Tali, Javik, Jacob, Vega and Liara! You apparently get them from Anderson and Joker too, but like I said, this darn app is VERY finiky on when and where it wants to send messages. (Javik asked me if I was having trouble with the airlock, I lol'ed).

...Oddly nothing from Kaidan, but I did kinda tell him to ****** off after the coup.


Gah. Now I regret not having an iPad. I hope eventually someone out there posts all of the possible messages on the internet for us to see!

Also, anyone else loling at people saying that Garrus' romantic date scene looked like it came out of a fanfiction? Because like, I'm pretty sure that was kind of the point. Shepard says "You grab the girl and kiss her like you mean it." It was supposed to be corny on purpose, like Garrus was reenacting a scene from a cliche Hollywood action movie because that's all he knows about human courtship.

I can deal with cliche Hollywood ;), I mean, it includes being turianhandled! :wub:

I'm personally more surprised they included an on mouth kiss. Does this mean turians do have pleasure nerves around their mouth? Would Garrus even find it enjoyable? Is he just doing it for Shepard? I WANT TO KNOW! D:

I can see why they thought that but my reason is because I never thought they would actually make Garrus a romance option because we wanted it. He is, quite literally, the perfect subject in what inspires fanfiction. The guy/alien you can never be with and then

SURPRISE

Intense/amazing/blissful romance that you never thought they had in them. It was bliss for me. Still have to watch the vids to make sure it's real.

I'm sure he does, he wouldn't keep doing it if he didn't, and we all know how he throws around 'practice' just to get in Shepard's good graces and pants

YES! Exactly. He bends you over and kisses you like a movie star, it was both adorable and hilarious. He's trying so hard.

I'm actually smiling like an idiot because Garrus thinks Shepard is beautiful.

I feel like a 13-year-old girl.


Both Garrus and his VA , Keener, have that effect on people. ;)

I'm going to redo this save of ME3 tonight to see what other messages show up (This darn thing is very finiky though on what messages it wants to send and when and from whom), so I'll post as I get them, but if anyone else has an iPad, please feel free to share too!


I play it in French. XD Gilles Morvan is good.

But yes, please do. <3


Had to look this up, could only find a scene from ME2 but...

Garrus speaking French =  HOT

Personally, I think Joker stumbled across some Mass Effect fanfiction, changed the names, and forwarded that to Garrus :D  Also, I found him dipping Shep to be kind of hot.

Indeed. I am a lucky frog-eater.

I can try and record the scenes from ME3 if you want.

You know what would've been even better? If Shepard had done that little kick thing with her leg. You know that thing women do in those old hollywood movies? Gone, that would've just been the cherry on the top.

...Then we could photoshop Garrus and Shepard into that picture of V-Day with the mysterious sailor and woman! <3

Speaking of French Garrus, am I the only one who SWOONED when he said 'liason' in the English dialogue? I mean, it's probably not French, but it sounded French and... just... Spirits.

Well, there's always fan art.

Seriously, though, Garrus is the best video game boyfriend ever, and I think it's largely because he wasn't originally planned as an LI and doesn't come with the usual LI baggage that BioWare gives their characters.  No dead ex, jealousy, suspicion, bat**** crazy, wangst, or anything.  He has some family issues but never makes them Shep's problem.  He's just an extremely badass and excellent dude who is u100% loving, loyal, and supportive without reservation or hesitation.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is a catch.

That  picture is exactly what I thought of when they did that kiss for the first time!

:lol: It made me giggle. The word is French but the pronunciation...

But BK is still amazing.

Eh, he comes in a tight first against Alistair in my opinion. Alistair WAS my first video game romance, and you never get over your first.

...Even if your first ditches you and leaves you heartbroken after you get him the ****ing crown. :crying:

Alistair was amazing, but he broke my Tabris' heart for the reason you mentioned.
Garrus comes first. I honestly never thought I'd one day say that Alistair could be beaten as a romance option in a Bioware game.

Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry.  *hug*

Atton Rand was my first, and will always hold a special place in my heart, but does Atton take you to the top of the Presidium and sweep you off your feet?  NOPE.

Agreed. Alistair dumped my Elf lady (Broke my damn heart) and in my first DA2 playthrough I romanced Anders...  :?  Yeeeahhh

Garrus Wins :wizard:

I was bloody lucky my first playthrough was a very persuasive Cousland, but I still had to do the dark ritual (**** you, Bioware!). My first Amell playthrough I broke down CRYING after he dumped my Amell (She wasn't persuasive enough to be his mistress :crying:)... then I reloaded to an earlier save and gave Anora the crown instead.

...I'm so hard to please.

Oh god, don't even get me started on Anders.  He gets the dubious honor of first video game character to make me ragequit for a few days.

Thank god for sweet, sexy turians.

I miss the older games, provoking this kind of emotion, was so bloody sure ME3 would end on a similar note to DA:O.

Also, DAT TURIAN ASS. I'm such a sucker for men in uniform.

Heh. I made Anora queen, so I never had to deal with Alistair dumping my elf. Though there WAS the dark ritual....

Haha I actually got a little paranoid on Palaven's moon that Garrus was going to be the next Primarch and he'd pull an Alistair and leave me.

I should have known better, I'm pretty sure Garrus would rather eat hot coals than be Primarch!

People from the petition are trying to get a little fundraising thing going in the name of getting the endings changed. All donations will go to Child's Play, "a game industry charity dedicated to improving the lives of children with toys and games in our network of over 70 hospitals worldwide."

Info at http://social.biowar...index/9845819/1

Any of the good Talons interested should go show their verbal support for the project.

I romanced Zev in DAO cause Alistair felt too much like a little brother to me. I actually loved that romance and getting the earing and promise at the end. In DA2 i romanced Fenris and it didnt blow my mind. The whole game was disappointing cause waiting 3 years for Fenris to change his mind after sleeping with him once dont make sense to me and Anders is nice until he lives with you but you still dont get to see him more/ realize he's changing.

But Garrus even if he's the best friend Shep can have, I never felt like friend-zoning him. It was always 'wow the 2 of them jsut have that dynamic going on, I hope there can be more'. The pace over the 3 games is perfect and you get to feel they are 'in a relationship not jsut chacing each other' in ME3, which the cabin scene shows very well.

So... Garrus rules I guess.

Anyone asked him to become the next Primarch in the dialogue options he gets after that mssion?

I personally woultn touch that with a 10foot pole. He wouldnt want that and it could turn into an 'Alistair' in my mind.

I suppose he  says 'no'. does someone remember exactly?
