wouldn't they be mad when they find out we are already playing video games about them?

 Title says it all.

In my opinion the Asari would be best. They have the best technology and they look enough like us that we'd be more willling to cooperate with them - we all know what happened when we encountered the Turians first. 

Krogan.....

Asari. They are the least likely to rush an important decision like this, due to their incredibly long lifespan. Their tendency toward playing the long game diplomatically would minimize the possibility of any perception of exploitation in the beginning because it is not uncommon for them to patiently wait centuries for a deal to pay off.

Being the first to arrive on the scene, they have the most experience in dealing with new arrivals to galactic civilization. Plus, they're probably the most technologically advanced, for a lot of reasons (oldest civilization, their scientists live a thousand years, etc). So, they would have the most to teach us.

They look the most familiar. This would go a long way. Having an attractive, feminine appearance would help ease tensions with our typically more aggressive males. We would be less likely to start a war with a race of beautiful women. The ability for humans to father asari children should help, as well... even if the resulting child is still an asari. Being able to build a family together would help bridge the gap and strengthen ties.

The Yahg.

Do you think they'd eat us?

Probably just enslave us.


But yeah, the Asari would be good.  They'd use us and manipulate us, but less than most other races.


Thing is, you really don't want another race to help you ascend.  That's the message of ME.  Do it yourself and you'll be better/stronger for it.

Just look at Humanity they got off their planet on their own and by doing so they were A LOT stronger than most races.

Agreed.  The asari would be the mostly widely accepted to humanity,

Asari heck on the eden prime mission vega makes a joke about the salarians uplifting the Krogan. So only good choice s Asari.

[Jagri]

Best: Asari
Favorable: Elcor and Volus
Mediocre: Turian and Hanar
Worse: Batarian

[Cecilia L]

Definitely the Asari.

They are the ones with enough diplomacy and patience to deal with human stupidity.

[legion999]

The Vorcha.

[Titan_HQ]

Asari. As much as I love the other races, nothing would stimulate humanity socially like the arrival of the Asari.

[RandomSyhn]

As much as I want to say Krogan (that would be one hell of a first contact story)
It`s much more likely to be Asari, or possibly Salarian (although I don`t know what we can bring to the table that would influence a salarian uplifting)

[Saans Shadow]

I have to agree with Oldbones2. In the grand scheme of things humans are still an infantile race. We can barely get along with ourselves let alone another species. Granted the Asari would be the best choice, as far as I'm concerned, if forced to be uplifted, but until we grow up as a civilization we aren't ready to be a part of galactic civilization. Regardless of who uplifted us, xenophobia would be a huge problem for any other species. There are so many other ramifications to consider but I could be here for days talking lol. I don't think we are ready and unfortunately we won't be ready for some time.

The Salerians would be the best...dont know why you all say Asari.

The Asari would take their time but they would be bringing us into their system to follow what they say. They are only as advanced as they are because they had the Prothean tech while it is them that make it illegal for other races to hide such things. The Asari basicly run the galaxy because they manipulate everyone and thing around them.

Due to this Salerians are the best option. The Salerians if nothing else would be very clear on what they want us for. With their history once we do our job the Salerians wont care anymore and we could do what we wanted as long as we dont start a war and start slamming rocks into other peoples colonies.

That would be SO much more interesting than the usual earthly version of such visits.

Not to mention, probes that go up your butt. "Feces Analyser", huh? Still an alien anal probe, by any other name.

[garf]

hmmm... Actually you can read between the lines about Asari diplomacy and consensus and the 'long view' of their matriarchs and start seeing the Citidel council as an Asari empire with their hidden hand behind everything. It's interesting to note that when the chips are down the asari are as selfish anyone they ever chided.

[Jagri]

Salarians? Hack no last race they uplifted got the genophage. They would likely use us for expandable soldiers and if we made too much trouble give us the snip snip no more babies.

Hmmm... so that means. Bioware are really in the employ of the Salarians trying to prepare a whole new generation for open first contact?

The Krogan waged open war the whole galaxy and it was not until they started smashing asteroids into garden planets that they decided to use the genophage.

As long as Humanity did not do that we would be safe to do what ever we wanted.
