you know that being said Garrus is very popular with young ladies who play mass effect

[AssassinsReign]

We can go on for days trying to change each others opinions about Tali, trying to prove points,etc. but we all know our opinions will stay the same. Simply put, some people will like her, and some won't.

[Melra]

Nope.. Can't come up with any. Sure there are reasons, someone would, but most of them aren't good.

[badmojo88]

frankly the only char i cant bring myself to try romancing is Jack.....she scares me honestly...if she burst into my cabin in tears i'd have to go for my gun

Oh these threads never ends

Talimancer here. I like it precisely because of the health issues. You have someone who really can't have casual sex. She has to trust her partner. Not only that, they have to think about what is and isn't possible for them. Going forward, they will probably have to alter their definition if sex a bit. And yet, the game affirms that someone with serious health problems can be a sexual creature in a stable relationship. Sign me up.

Most people aren't that sensible. Shepard included.

Depends on the Shepard.

Once again. Tali was shot in ME1 and she was just fine. She was shot again in ME2 and was just fine.

Swapping a little spit and using a condom will be less dangerous than having a high velocity round puncture her skin and allow millions of microbes directly into her bloodstream.

You seemingly have no idea how rich human saliva is on bacteria and contagions. There's a reason why human bite wounds almost always become infected.

Quarians were never as fragile as you many of you try to make them out to be.

Kal'Reegar begs to differ.

And Grunt disagrees with you. He calls humans squishy yet not Quarians. If anyone is an expert of squishiness levels, it's the krogans.

Why would you make an account on a game forum with no customization and a suspicious user name and make an inflammatory thread about said game's most popular character directly afterwards?

Tali is not the game's most popular character. That would be Garrus.

Not according to the most recent polls.

[Nashiktal]

What about that game data chart that bioware released? I know tali wasn't the most popular LI, but I can't remember which one was...

I'm guessing Miranda.

[Blze001]

I picked Tali on my MShep for the same reason I picked Liara on my FShep... I like the character. The fact that she's an alien or has the mystery about her looks and whatnot really didn't factor in.

Also, for those of you discussing the health concerns, I have to post this...

[S.A.K]

It maybe a number of reasons:

• People like her romance(including me).
• Because its a feature in the game.
• Game =/= reality.
• Same reason you romance anyone.
• Why the hell not?

[Sashimi_taco]

I've never romanced her but you would think the more she gets out of her suit and has sex the better her immune system would get. Plus relationships are not all about sex. There are women who date men who are paralyzed from the waist down and they cannot have sex in the traditional manner. Tali and Shepard can have sexual relations with the suit on. Who knows, maybe Shepard has a thing for the suit. maybe to him its like having tali naked all the time.

If you really love Tali why would you sleep with her ? If she died the next day because you couldn't help yourself what would you do?
That's the reason i don't romance Tali it'd be pretty *** up if she died.

If every Quarian that had sex died of infections, there'd be a lot less of them around these days.

True, but she made it sound like a huge risk

Quarians are allergic to each other, even breathing the same air makes them physically sick until they build up an immunity so for her it probably didn't seem like much of a risk. If not treated sensibly it could potentially have rendered her unfit for duty but the chances of it proving incapicitating were fairly small because... it's pretty standard for her race and they've had hundreds of years to figure out what they're doing.

Mmmm... Why I pictured Tali with Shep´s underwear inside her mask?

[tabulius]

Don't worry guys. I had sex with her and she just got a small flu. She didn't die and everything is fine. Also I believed that Tali as smart person was making sure that all the antibiotics etc. made the risk of dying minimal.

But answering the question: I romanced Tali because of her character. She was incredibly brave and loving person. Other romance options were hiding behind their "masks". I understand that some might get the "little sister" vibe and there's nothing wrong with that and just be friends with her if some other team mate interests more, but for me no one wasn't even near of Tali's personality and character.

 Three, no contact and masked, the first post on this forum raises a good set of points however misses one very important one, the "no contact and hidden face" issue with Tali gives a certain primal allure to the character, if intended or no Tali is a classic style "forbidden fruit" character and people in reallife or fantasy will forever be drawn to that which they cannot have, some see it as a challange to their beleaf that "love can overcome anything, as I beleave.

Depends on the person. If God almighty had told me, "Stay the f**k away from the forbidden fruit tree", I would have replied, "Ah cool, I'll just chillaize somewhere else."

Abstinence is such a rare virtue these days.

Wow i do agree with the "forbidden fruit" thing.  I think it also helps that fans can't see her full face, and therefore they can "fantisize" and believe she is extremely hot, and they can't be proven wrong....so far.

Trololololol

I'm climbin' in yo Windows, messin' yo trollin' up.

 
Im not trolling, just trying to understand how certain people think.

And is Tali really the most popular character?  Wouldn't that be Shepard?

no offense but so is she

[PauseforEffect]

From what I've seen, the reasons why people choose Tali over the other female interests are:
Ashley's too.................."strong minded" in her views of aliens
Miranda's too much in the uncanny valley
Liara's turned frakkin nuts apparently when you hear her threaten to flay a guy with her mind
Jack's is, well, an acquired taste for some
Kelly's too friendly
Chakwas is too old
The Consort is unavailable
Shiala is suffering from Thorian HPV
....off the top of my head. Don't quote me, am really not the best source for why Tali is loved so.
