I liked the photo in the game. I just think they should have rendered 3d versions of at least the most important quarians (Tali included) taking off their masks and showing their faces, except that, you know, showing, not teasing.

Edit: spoilers removed, or at least parts of them.

You do know it's googled and lazy photoshoped, don't you?

Can we just have a plausible alien species that actually looks alien without worrying about how "hot" they are for chrissakes?

If THAT was going to be the way it was then NONE of the aliens would be "hot" and a possible love interest.  Nobody bangs a spider, no matter how "intelligent".  They don't bang Pierson's Puppeteers either.  

The game isn't about realism.  NONE of the aliens would be able to mate with any other any more than a bird can mate with a dog on earth (only worse because they wouldn't share ANY similar DNA, let alone proteins).

Don't get crazy with the realism in aliens thing.  Not in this game.

After that, we might as well get picky about physics and natural laws too.  But we cannot because then the game would become a much more technical game in the HARD scifi genre.  There wouldn't be Mass Relays, the Mass Effect, eezo, etc.  No game series at all. 

That entire argument is a nonsensical slippery slope. What you're saying is "I don't want plausible aliens because I, personally, want all of them to be sexy."

The fact that Garrus is so popular disproves your premise. And no one would be forcing you to use the romance mechanic if (the humanity!) the aliens aren't sexy enough for your tastes.

Not really.  The whole Garrus thing is a chick thing.  Generally less into looks and more into the emotional thing.

It is simply a fact that Bioware was NOT aiming for realistic aliens in ME.  They COULD have and it would have been a totally different game.  It could have been fine that way, sure, but that isn't how it was written.  The designed from day 1 the asari to be hot chicks who could mate with anything.  Scientifically that is nonsense but so is eezo.  

Maybe someone somewhere will do an RPG HARD scifi game with realistic aliens and everyone will keep their willies confined to their own species.  That isn't ME though...

If we are typing about the looks of aliens, 500 years later a alien space ship lands on earth. The look of the space ship is so alien there is not one like it on earth or earth never seen one like it or one ever existed on earth. Even the materials though it look like metal the properties says otherwise.

Then this ramp extents and a slim figure walks down with suit and helmet and it take the helmet off so it able to speak. Then we get a shock, not the language it speaks which is so alien which dose not exist on earth but we get a shock of the looks.

They look like us.

Some argue they morph to look like us so they are accepted by us so we don't get scared. So we (10 of us after we broke down the language barrier) zoom off with us with their space ship which is a scouting ship which it take us to their (big. Not Earth big but Universe big ) base ship which is at Saturn and went right inside it. We get out from that scout ship and we look around. They look like us. Hundreds of them talking to each other in their alien language on this large landing dock and they are scare of us.

Why?

Because the images they just saw. The images of WWII. Here are the aliens in this big space ship that they discovered Earth when they 'terrible lizards' roam. Whilst they travel through space after that discovery they see images of earth through the ages up to point of WWII.

If people are going to complain that the aliens aren't realistic enough, I'd guess that aliens that resemble us are convenient for storytelling, because you already know how to read their intentions. Their behavioral cues are familiar, and you can tell if their game plan is to be friendly or aggressive. I also heard that aliens would only require a few specific characteristics; one being opposable thumbs.

Funny stuff...

But, seriously you have something like this reveal Tali thing to play, its been building for years and years, and this is the best you could do BioWare?

With the exception of Asari, all of the alien races we're presented with, aside from the majority being bipedal and humanoidish, are suitably "alien" looking to be "possible".

Asari's "mating" ability isn't scientifically impossible. Just because we haven't observed it, doesn't mean it isn't impossible. Burden of proof and all that.

The image that's floating around of a fully rendered Tali in this thread is, in fact, one of the most plausible concepts that's been presented. It fits established lore (hair and ears and none of the older asari mentioning similarities between humans and quarians) and in game commentary (Grunt).

Seriously now. Anything would have been better than what we got. It's the epitome of ****ing lazy.

This. I would have been fine with the mystery than that idiotic photoshop rubbish we got. Personally, I'm willing to think Bioware is making a joke with that picture, but after reading the final hours thread... Yeah, I dunno anymore.

Fun (in all it's horrid sorts) > realism.



Plausible or realistic aliens is both intriguing and a little lame.

Hanar are kinda smart but without help I'd have a hard time believing they could build eg. a rocket or anything.

Same with dolphins here. Yes, while they might be smart they won't be putting a dolphin on the moon any time soon. If they even have an idea of whats above the ocean.

EDIT: Yes, I discount hitchikers as a work of fiction.
