Ok I get the whole "sometimes it's better for the imagination to take over" point. No one sees Tali's face means everyone imagines her to be an alien hottie (she already has the figure), so no 1000 page complaint posts and such. However...

1. If I'm Shepard, and Shepard saw Tali's face, why not let me, the player, see it too (this time in ME3 I mean)?

2. Even if she is not "Miss Milky Way 2168," she is not female Darth Vader either. Shepard might have been attracted to her mainly based on his imagination and that figure matches face in some way at least. If some people rant afterwards, let them rant. For all I know, there may be people out there who find all ME ladies not to be their type. 

3. From a story perspective,  aren't there any galactic historians sitting on a faraway planet who inserted a photo of male/female Quarian unmasked in some sort of encyclopedia? They're there among us, not some ghost species like the Collectors who people doubted existed. I mean, it's POSSIBLE for there to be a record of how Quarians look like, right? It's only realistic then to let the player know what Tali looks like.

What do you think?


Reason not to do it:

Look at the Femshep vote thread. Nobody would ever be pleased. It'd be a ****storm waitig to happen.

Not really.

People will complain on Tali having wrong hair style, skin colour and so on.

Eh,people will cry either way,it's the interwebz.

I'm not talking about BW resources,I'm talking about the quarians resources.:?

That rationale is just....weird. I think it's clearly a character design convention resulting from Bioware's decision years ago to conceal quarians' faces. Which was a dumb idea in the first place, for reasons we see now.

I don't really care. It's silly that everyone in the galaxy knows what quarians look like, but Bioware continues to hide it from the player. 

It's kind of silly they would waste the resources on tinting their visors,unless they all have the same exact face.


Perhaps the reason why they tint their visors is because their face looks like some lovecraftian horror.

Is the tinting even necesarry?  If its not, why do it anyway unless they got something to hide?

My multi-personality-Sheps have different views.

No: This is 'I don't care' Shep and is disinterested.

Yes: This is 'I-love-Tali' Shep and wants to see her runny nose and other green oozing stuff.

Yes: This is 'I-hate-Tali' Shep and wants to see the look in her eyes as he blasts her out an airlock.

On a personal level: doesn't matter. I can go either way and enjoy it.

Why do you care so much about the face of a pixel character in a video game?


What the **** kind of question is this? This is a Mass Effect forum, if you don't care about the video game then what the hell are you doing here?

If they were all ugly,they wouldn't be ugly amongst themselves.


Also,the suit design would have had to been around long before the migrant fleet,they had dealings with other species,and since people know what the quarians look like already,why would they need to hide their faces?

I really don't give two ****s about Tali specifically. I would really like to see what quarians look like, though.

One very good reason why they should not reveal her face:

They will need to make her attractive. If Tali is attractive, then so will be the other female quarians.

We already have the Asari, thank you!

I'm surprised an avid Talihater hasn't popped out of nowhere to blame this iteration of Tali Face Thread #34567 on Talimancers, while subsequently making Talimancers seem like satanspawn...

Why do the Talimancers keep making these threads about her face? Isn't this like the 34567th one?

I'm pretty sure they will show her appearance, but personally I still hope that they don't.

This is close to the twentieth thread about Tali, and or her face within the past few weeks.

Please people, there is a thread DEDICATED TO HER. Why don't we use that one?

Cause it's more fun this way, notice the high popcorn consumption.
