I think it was weird seeing them hookup. It seemed random and unexpected, kinda forced...like everything else in the game.
They always seemed like a brother and sister kind of thing, then all of a sudden they're sucking helmet/mandibles.
And based on Tali's Shadow Broker Dossier in ME 2, she doesn't seem to be particularly fond of Quarian and Turian relationships.
That's because it was forced, came completely out of left field, and out of character for the both of them. Probably more unnecessary fan pandering, if you ask me.FatalX7.0 wrote...

No, because no woman can resist Garrus.

I kinda wished Garrus and Tali ended up together since Mass Effect 1, but that's me. I mean they're both dextro... common, they can eat the same food!

Hey, so we can eat the same food right? Report to the ship immediately! We'll bang okay?
Let me know if it works.

Yeah it was a bad idea on my part. Bad point to make. I guess I can take the chance here and apologize since this thread won't die and bury it underneath ending threads. However, I still don't like it. Mostly because I never noticed they had something going on and actually in my playthrough I missed it too. So reading this here is really weird. It never even crossed my mind they could. It's just a Bioware 'everyone's bi' thing. Can't make a character without having them romance with someone.Jayleia wrote...

Tbh I missed that in my first (and only) playthrough. And I am glad I did. Not because I hate them being happy, but there is a reason I didn't romance Tali. Well, aside from Liara. Simply they could not have children. It would be better for them to romance someone ... matching.
I've heard that same line about real-world people not being able to have children, so they shouldn't be able to romance each other...
...WTH?

Romance one of them.....Problem solved.
And what about Liara? I'll simply let Garrus be the tech expert for the vent on the suicide mission next time I play ... problem solved.ShadyKat wrote...

Even if you wanted to you'd have been unable to. Tali and Garrus can only be romanced in ME3 if you import a romance from ME2...DamonD7 wrote...
It's rather sweet. I kinda regretted not romancing Tali beforehand (but I wasn't going to switch to her in ME3), so it was nice to see her hooking up quite literally with Garrus.

Let me paint you a picture: it's 4am, I'm laying on my couch browsing this thread and I get to your comments. Seconds later, I swear to Baby Jesus, the cookie in my mouth was all over my keyboard. No idea how it happened, but I was too busy laughing like a retarded seal to think about it until now. Props.
P.S. between the jokes/cookie gibs your points are solid. Tali, Garrus, and all the other characters have depth outside of their interactions with Shepard, that's what makes them great. Calling "Dibs!" on any of them and slapping a chastity belt on them in every subsequent playthrough is almost like playing God with the supporting characters.
P.P.S. Gay boobies...is that even a thing?

I'm surprised you could scrounge up $250 to afford that hour.
But seriously, the fact that you felt the need to express this - let's just say, if anybody doubted your insecurity before...

Indeed, as my argument has been all along - if we take these characters as real within the universe of the story - it is ludicrous to think that they are simply static critters who do nothing unless Sir Issac Shepard acts upon them. My friends do not go home and sit blank-eyed on the couch until I call them and set them in motion - and that girl I liked, Amy - but never talked to past casual conversation because I was trying to get it on with Sharon?
Oh come on, Liara and Chakwas are perfect for each other. They're both levo so they can eat the same food. That's the true test of any relationship. You're just dead inside and don't want them to be happy. You hate love!Oransel wrote...
My problem with their romance is that it was not hinted at all in 3 games. They were good friends to each other, just as they were good friends with Wrex or Liara, but it felt so... Strange. It's like Liara would suddenly end up with Dr. Chakwas if you haven't romanced her.

Nobody cares about your friends or lack thereof. We're talking about characters in a video game.
One of many problems with your argument is that the WRITERS were the ones who made the characters "Shepard-centric". It was the WRITERS who wrote the dialogue where Tali admits that the only reason she ever set foot on the Normandy was to join Shepard. It was the WRITERS who decided to a hyper-expensive two-year project focused solely on bringing Shepard and only Shepard back to life. It was the WRITERS who made Admiral Hackett say he knows of no one other than Shepard with whom people would so enthusically commit to a suicide mission.
In the fictional universe of Mass Effect, Shepard IS the center of the universe, whether you like it or not. That's how the story and his character have been defined. So please spare me all of your comparisons to how the people you know in real-life would behave.
Fiction is by definition NOT real life, and never will be.

I must say, in all sincere admiration, that when you miss a point, you do it with the most adamantinely insistent and consistent missing of said point of anyone I've encountered on this forum not under an institution's care or some debilitating cerebral deficiency.
I'll help you if I can: if the above were even remotely relevant to the argument almost everyone else is having - in the context they're having it - you'd have a point. But since the basic thrust of this thread is not what you've been arguing, it can be dismissed as irrelevant.
Also a little pitiable, as your massive and iron-fisted grasp of the obvious is breathtaking in it's ardency. That no one can deny, and that in itself is worthy to be lauded.
Wrong, but laudable.

Really? Those were sparks? I heard both those lines in my me2/3 playthrough and I romanced Tali.M920CAIN wrote...
Garrus & Tali are also known to be teasing each other. Remember the shotgun talk while on the Citadel, or the "why don't I get a new gun" talk on the Geth Dreadnought? There's definetely some sparks there.
