lol on the citadel on the upper markets there is a human trying to return his item to a turian merchant. The turian won't let him for some reason. I think this is hilarious if you "follow" the story all the way through, especially when another turian is allowed to return his item without a proof of purchase. anyone else think this is a little funny?

There's alot of racism between human and alien ingame...even among the alien.

That's not racism, that's business.

[spg007]

Yea well if I could I'd shoot that turian.

Thing is, the human doesn't have a receipt or other concrete evidence to prove he bought the item in question from the turian merchant. It's just good business practice to not blindly trust everybody who comes to you asking for a refund, because trust me, there are TONS of scoundrels and freeloaders out there who will rip you off without a second thought.
The turian DOES sound rather smug about it everytime he turns the human down though.

Yes I think the 'refund guy' storyline is rascism. I also think it's hilarious.

That's how I took it too, having worked in retail I actually sympathised with the Turian.

His stance is quite reasonable for a shopkeeper, except for the tiny little fact that he does give the Turian customer a refund without a proof of purchase. "Good business sense" becomes racism when it only applies to one population group.

Well, I assumed that the other Turian had shown his proof of purchase beforehand. You did come in about halfway through the conversation after all. But if you're right, then yes, I agree that the Turian merchant is indeed racist. (And it wouldn't surprise me if he was. There's lots of other Turians in the game who obviously don't like humans. Executor Pallin, among them, even though he keeps it professional.)

Why are you reading this?

Throughout the game and during Mass Effect 2 the turians struck me as much more hostile in general toward humans than other Citadel races

[DPSSOC]

Everyone in Mass Effect is racist, those not prejudiced against other species are prejudiced against their own.

And the humans more towards the Turians than the other races. (batarians excluded, both ways)
This might have something to do with the that the humans and turians recent fought a war with each other, don't you think? (At first contact to boot. How's that for making lousy first impressions!)

[Lopake]

Im not a turian and I hate you bastards

[Xpardox91X]

 I think this should be in ME2 as DLC. lol seriously

[Louis deGuerre]

"You humans are all racist !"



*ME2 SPOILER FOLLOWS*









The default start settings of me2 is that you let the council die. Everybody hates you and you miss out on some fun dialogue.

So I recommend importing an me1 save game where you saved the council.

[BrotherJason]

The racism is something I didn't quite like about the game, though it made for some funny dialogues. Not the racism against humanity, but the racism from the humans against everything else. If I was a turian I wouldn't like those racist newcomers either.
