 I know its not a "big deal" but it did cause a bit of an uproar, did they say anything like..."sorry guys, the huge budget that ea gave us wasnt enough to make a creative solution? *troll face

i understand the game has improvments, the camera angles, the massive reapers, etc  but i do want to know, did the artists have a creative idea on what tali/quarians look like??

i can afford the  artbook, but if there is something in there and you have it, could you scan that page and post it on photobucket so we can see it?

~thanks

There aren't any quarian concepts in the art book, just of their homeworld.

They haven't even given a proper response about the endings yet, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

All those look better then what they gave people. Much more appropriately alien.

I was honestly hoping for something from the art book to be finalized, specifically the 3,4 and 6 concepts.

They had sketches/concepts of the Quarians (even if they are from ME1). No idea why they didn't use them.

Anyone with the PC version able to find the texture file for the photo? I want to get a better look at it. However, it wasn't too big a deal to me. I've accepted that this is set in a universe where most advanced life is humanoid, following trends set long ago. Some are going to look more human, and I'm kinda glad she looked so attractive, kind of a reward to my Shepard for not being shallow and risking the unknown.

What annoyed me about the picture is, this is one of the biggest character reveals in recent video game history.

So what does Bioware do? They just give us a crappily edited stock photo and even after you see the photo THEY STILL OBSCURE TALI'S FACE during parts where she takes off her mask.

So this just means Bioware are either lazy idiots who couldn't be bothered to make a face model for Tali, (but they had plenty of time to get Jessica Chobot's ugly mug in the game) or this is just a big F you to the fans.

How do you people know that the photo wasn't extracted from the game and then edited to look like a human? When I do a TinEye or Google Image Search I can't seem to find the pictures of the human women anywhere except for that specific URL.

And even if it's an edited stock photo, so what?

They have yet to answer about anything right now...I think people are more interested about getting answers for the end more than Tali picjob.

Because it's a major character in the game, on top of that one they where playing up not knowing what she looked like for 2 games.

and they revealed her face in the most lazy and and uninspired way possible.

Even when they already had concept art of what she looked like they couldn't even be bothered to color that in and use that.

This is just nonsense and I don't know where people get it from. First
off the landscape is just some generic winter landscape, they all look
the same.

I've
looked for the image of women people claim Tali is based on and funny
thing is that TinEye and Google Image Search don't have that picture in
their index. That means the pictures was just recently introduced to the
internet and apart from that one URL I can't seem to find it anywhere
else. If it's a royalty free picture then you would be able to find it
at other places too.

Shepard had sex with Tali so Shepard knew what they looked like. Who gives a ****? Is it important what they look like? Is it a game changing detail? No!

Amazing, this pictures suddenly shows up 52 times in the Google Image Search database and guess what, they were all added in the last 48 hours and they are all related to forum discussions just like this one.

ONE CAN SAY WITH CERTAINTY THAT THIS IMAGE DID NOT EXIST BEFORE THE ME3 LAUNCH AND
WAS INTRODUCED TO THE INTERNET ONLY RECENTLY.

yes they teased it at the end of ME2 and all i got was a dumb photo in ME3, the perfect time to show what the quarians looked like was when you stop the geth/quarian war and she takes off her mask but never shows her face or anyone else.

In fact just the opposite. Its the fact that Bioware was lazy and uncreative by taking an internet photo and dressing it up as one of the fans' favorite characters.

Boohoo, cry me a river. They could've but they didn't! End of story. You don't always get what you want the way you want it. Showing her face changes absolutely nothing, it's just personal satisfaction for you and you only. Nothing more or less.

How do you know for a fact that it's a stock internet photo? If it is it would show up on TinEye or Google Image Search. It does not. So where did this photo come from?
