I'm pretty sure for long banners you have to split them up into separate images?

I think in order to get it to fit all the way across it has to be multiple images next to each other.

I did not care for him in ME1 as anything more than someone Shep needed to mentor he cam off as green and innocent and headed in the wrong direction.

ME2 manned him the **** up. His romance arc is now my favorite.

Ok, this may be slightly controversial, but i never really...well, liked garrus. I didn't dislike him by any means, but i didn't find him as interesting as tali or miranda or jack or ashley.

I know some people think of him as their 'bro' but I always felt Wrex fitted that role better.

I also dont get why do many people romance him. I mean, I'm gay, but I dont really find him that attractive.

So, thoughts? What do you particularly like about Garrus?

Remember, I dont hate him, just neve found him interesting. Please don't lynch me :)


I could write you an essay about Garrus, but alas, this is BSN, home of the short attention-spans, myself included ;)

To answer some of your questions though, I never really saw him as a bro either. I didn't romance him from the get-go, just kinda figured he was a good friend of my Femshep. Perhaps I'd have to play MShep to get it.

Anyway, as for why people romance him so much, it's not at all about looks, its more his personality. First there's the fact that he's been your friend for a while, so when you do start a romance with him in ME2 it feels a little more natural, and then he turns into an adorably awkward mess which is incredibly endearing. The romance culmination isn't as emotional as Thane's or Jack's, but his feelings are more understated and realistic, which is really appealing to me anyway.

His ME3 romance is what a friend of mine calls "a fangirl's wet dream" lol. He comes into his own and isn't reliant on Shepard like some of the other characters; their relationship is that of equals. He doesn't ask anything of Shepard, which is a relief when everyone and their mom has an issue for her to take care of, and he's honestly her support throughout the game. Other than that, on the corny fluffy side of things, you've got that dipkiss, "I need you" and similiar lines, and the final goodbye scene which go out of their way to burst ovaries everywhere :)

Garrus has special indoctrination powers that affect most Mass Effect gamers like myself.

Garrus doesn't challenge Shepard in any real way, he's always nice, supportive and deferential toward Shepard. Garrus never disagrees with Shepard or flouts Shepard's authority. He's loyal to a fault. He is good-naturedly competitive with Shepard in ME3, but it's all very jocular. People like characters who reinforce the idea that the player character is awesome. And Garrus really really likes you. So does Liara. So does Tali. Meanwhile, characters who actually stand up for themselves and have a different point of view, and actually call Shepard on her BS are maligned. One of my favorite characters in ME2 was Tela Vasir, because she called out Shepard for being a total hypocrite, which of course she was. And I loved when Kaidan and Ashley laid the verbal smackdown on Shepard on Horizon, but of course most people were all "Kashley was mean to me! I'm Commander Shepard!!!!!"

Garrus is alien. This is a sci-fi game. Aliens will always be intersting because you can go outside and see a human. If Garrus was human and Kaidan was alien, I guarentee Kaidan would be insanely popular because people would be more likely to listen to him as a sci-fi Alien rather than a sci-fi human. Same thing with Tali and Ashley. Tali advocates destroying the Geth in Me1 "hell yeah let's destroy the get they're evil kill them all. completely ignore the fact that they're only agains the quarians because they lauched military strikes agains thtem one they gained sentience" same thing in ME2 Tali's all for killing Geth and Legion is the only thing stopping everyone from hating the Geth because Legion is the perfect foil for Tali's ignorance. Tali's openly racist against the Geth. Ashley has issues letting Aliens around the Normandy's systems because they might steal tech "oh leave that racist b*tch on Virmire" only for ME3 to role around and Tali took stealth tech from the Normandy to the Migrant fleet. Ashley was right yet she's the racist and Tali is just so cute and adorable for hating the Geth even though she and her people are in the wrong. She does get over it and I aplaud her for it because that's not an easy thing to do, getting over hate propoganda her people have been perpetuatiing for 300 years. You can get away with anything in Mass Effect if you're alien, but you're held to an incredibly high standard if you're human by the majority of the fan base.
