I let him win only with my adept. It makes sense that biotic with pistol would be out-powered by turian marksman.

But not with my infiltrator, soldier and vanguard. Yes my vanguard is very much snipy.

And I dont let guy win just because I´m sleeping with him. This is pure skill, Garrus.

It's a simple moral choice and it's nothing more than that. Do I win and prove I'm better, or do I let my friend have fun and feel good?

[IC-07]

To see a different outcome. Like I do.

I don't know about you guys, but when I think of the right way to treat a friend, patronizing behavior and dishonesty are nowhere near the top of MY list.

Please. Its just as dishonest to 'win' as to lose, because its never an actual contest. Garrus can never win or lose based on actual skill. Garrus should beat the pants off my male shep who spent three games never using a sniper rifle and fighting at melee range.

And Garrus, if  he's at all a good friend to you, knows this too. So if I 'win' its just as likely Garrus saw that I really wanted it and gave me an easy toss. Or he wins because he purposely picked something he wouldnt lose at. Easilly works both ways.

But it was never really about the contest. Or about Honesty. It was about two friends sharing a bonding moment before the end of the world.

Well, maybe you are just better than him in shooting so there is no challenge. Just like he is better than you as a tracker, saboteur etc.

If I challenge an archery expert and I practiced archery it aint no competition he is going to win.


Regardless I like the idea of some guy said before I find it PERFECT. Flip a coin and depending on that is unbias and fair. LOVED that idea and from now on that is how I will solve "competition" problems in games.

THANK YOU UNAMED guy... can't find the last quote I found that at. Think it was on this thread though.

[Samtheman63]

the best option would have been to let the player take control of shepard for a few seconds and take the shot themselves

Now, I'm not saying saying that letting Garrus win makes you bad person...
Actually, wait, that IS what I am saying.


Edit: If you missed because you were actually roll playing and your Shepard simply wasn't as good as Garrus, that makes sense.

To be perfectly honest, you kinda sound like an awful friend. And probbaly 100% wining oriented. 

Which is not what that "contest" was for me. Not at all. 

My friends love me. You know why? Cause I F***ing RESPECT them.

Why do you think winning and your friend having fun are mutually exclusive?

[MetioricTest]

Because doing the same action on repeat playthroughs is boring

Have you seen what's left of his face?  Not only do I let him win, nearly every time, but I give him crap about that too.  It's no fun to beat him, it's more fun to let him win, and point out that we're going to have to have him ready for the bottle revolt.

[Killdren88]

Think you are over thinking just a tad. Just you and your buddy shooting bottles is all.

[favoritehookeronthecitadel]

Idk, I just kinda let Garrus win because I wanted him to feel good about himself.

[d1ta]

I do a coin toss..

Or if I got bored with the 'bottle revolt' line, I just simply chose the other option. Either choice I take, they both seemed to have a good time and that's what's important.

[N7KnightSabre]

I have no problem letting Garrus win because he IS a good shot. Now, if he couldn't shoot the broad side of the Citadel, I definitely wouldn't let him win. Plus, he's awesome.

Any class can be a great sniper if you use sniper rifles a lot...
I don't, though...

I prefer assault rifles, heavy pistols and powers...


Even if you are a sniper, you weren't prepared for a contest and are using Garrus's rifle...
And you only have to miss once with someone else's gun...
Which puts Garrus at a distinct advantage...

I'd never insult Garrus by letting him win. He's a legitimate bad*** ... he doesn't need me to patronize him.

And he didn't lose the contest, either. It was just a tie.

I beat the hell out of James Vega in our sparring match, though, and I do feel a little badly about that ...

I let Garrus win. I didn't need Shepard to win to prove to Garrus that he's the better shot, Garrus has seen enough of Shepard in action to know how good he is. That and Shepard already knows how good he is.

Let Garrus have his moment.
