 Cause he took a missile to the face barely survived and cracked jokes about it as soon as he could get out of bed.

And was back on his feet a few hours after it happened.

Garrus is awesome. Garrus has always been my favorite character in the ME series. So when he was made romancable in ME2 I went for it and now I end up playing that particular character more than the other two I have. His romance is sweet and adorkable, gotta love that. And he's a guy that has totally always been there with Shep, always had her back.

I like Garrus best in ME1, it kinda felt like he lost his personality in ME2 and was completely bland in ME3. I thought it was cool how he was so conflicted about rebelling against the "Turian way," and I really don't like Turians so that was kinda cool, and made him feel unique. As for Turians in general, they just seem like an entire race of mall cops, and I just can't see their appeal.

Because he's funny and loyal. But mostly because he's funny. And loyal.

He's one of the best 'bros' in gaming. His best scene in the entire series is just going on top of a building or whatever it was, shooting bottles and talking a little trash with Shep. AND IT WAS AWESOME. I will admit he was kinda boring in ME1, but in 2 & 3 he became the snarky, silver tongued buddy cop-type to Shep that made him stand out above the other NPCs for me.


This really sums it up very well.  Garrus simply is that awesome. 

And frankly I find his skill sets very useful in combat.  My preferred class is soldier and Garrus's tech and sniper skills compliment my play style very well.

Like some people's opinion of Liara (I'm personally a Liara-phile), I found the friendship between my Shep and Garrus quite out of place. The line "there is no Shepard without Vakarian", I was like, really? I never took him anywhere anyway. Was also personally perturbed that Liara was dumped back to the Normandy the moment Garrus turned up on the scene. For me, there is no Shepard without T'Soni.

I like him because

a) He balances my team. Tali is short range with the shotgun, I'm mid range with the assault rifle, and he is long range with the sniper.
B) He's consistent and familiar. One of only two squadmates present in every game.
c) He's funny (Starting with 2. In 1, he was just..a cop)
d) I could set him up with an effective RailGun in 1. That made me love him a LOT.

Garrus is great in combat, he's a badass vigilante, he has an awesome sense of humor and he's shepard's partner in crime...fighting

+1. He ended up being like Dr Watson to Shepard's Sherlock Holmes.

I wouldn't say he was 'boring' in ME1, but he definitely came out of his shell in the later games.

Plus, Garrus' Loyalty mission was all kinds of awesomeness. It felt like a level from the Jedi Knight games.

Why is he called Space Batman? He's more like Space Punisher, given his lethal methods.

I'm honestly not sure what he is so popular with everyone.

Part of his appeal with me comes from the fact that out of all the squadmates in ME1 he had the best character design ( he looked cool ), he had a very versatile set skill set that ( I needed someone that could hack stuff ) made sure he almost always took up one of spots on the roster and I found him to his views on crime, justice and life in general to be interesting. I was also intrigued by the whole entire human - turian relations thing after the first contact war.

By the time we got to ME2 Garrus kind of stopped being all that special ( his busted armour looked stupid and he barely talked to me ) but I was still pleased to have him along for the ride, maybe it was because he was the first ME1 squadmate to come back to the Normandy. Archangel's introduction in ME2 was definitely memorable.

In ME3 he once again looks cool and he has some of the better one liners but he is not relevent to the plot.

I guess Garrus is just the most consistently likeable character in the series so far. Almost everyone else in the series generates polarising opinions but that there is something about Garrus that makes almost everyone see him as Shepard's friends or bro. Gamer's want to see Garrus follow in Shepard's shoes.

In ME Garrus was someone my FemShep trusted. In ME2 Garrus was pretty much "SIDONIS!!" and "I was betrayed!!" with a heavy dose of "calibrationzz!!". He was a friend to my FemShep that she cared for but I was not that into him. Garrus in ME3 however, wow just wow. He grew up, he has great dialogue and scenes. Talking with him feels as if my FemShep has a friend and a equal to talk to. Dragged myself back to ME2 just to I could see the romance in ME3 with him. Jupp, so happy that both Kaidan and Garrus have such great romance-arcs in ME3.

The conversation between Garrus and Shep in the last part of ME3 is probably one of my favorite moments in gaming. That whole dialogue exchange put into perspective how close Garrus and Shep had become. They were brothers in arms but they were as close as true brothers.

I like the turians because they are the most similar to human men.

Salarians, too shifty. Batarians, too viscious. Asari, too feminine. Krogan, too brutish. Hanar, too jellyfish. You get the picture.

But other than being in a rigid hierarchal society their personalities are most like us. Along with the quarians who also have a similar personality to humans.

Why is he so loved? It's the sex appeal.

Garrus is the best friend my Shepard could ever ask for. Either strictly a friend or also a lover, Garrus is always there to offer advice or be Shepard's rock.

And the voice. Ohhhhh Maker the voice...

I liked Garrus a lot and I loved taking him with me on missions. Mainly for that voice and I love his dialogue. However, there is that level of butt kissing that comes from him at times. He doesn't truly stand out for being his own man or having his own story. In ME1 he has a problem with the doctor that got away. In ME2, it was Sidonis. In ME3, he's just there. I would have liked it if we have some missions concerning him and the Turians he was directing in battle or something. As much as I like him, he just has no opinions on much of anything and will just go along with anything you say and do. It's okay because it's good to have someone supportive around but having Kaidan in the game was a breath of fresh air for me. I took him everywhere in ME1 and he was always very vocal about certain decisions I've made. I hated and loved my encounter with him on Horizon in ME2. He has his own principles and i can respect that he won't drop everything for Shepard. In ME3 I wanted to punch him at the beginning but it also made me want to remedy my relationship with him by putting alight hearted touch to it. It gives my choices a bit of weight and I like having someone call me out on my choices without trying to railroad me about it. I hear Ash is harsher and that would just annoy me.

I'm in the 'mystified' crowd. He's a vigilante. You say "vigilantism is bad", Garrus agrees with you. Then he wants to be a vigilante again, so you have to tell him it's bad again. And again. The game wants him to be my best friend. He isn't, Tali is. Then again the game wants me to be a racist and I don't let it do that either.

I hate him so I dunno :). If hate is such a strong word how much can it squat? He's actually only slightly annoying, but the overt love and adoration he receives, which in my eyes is unjust, adds a lot to it. I call that "Tali Syndrome".




Oh and what DJ said, he was quite alright in ME1
