Like I've said before all of the squadmates in ME2 are expendable, so I wouldn't count on them being big players in-JOKERSWAITINGFORYOUONTHEBRIDGE













Sorry.

Do you really expect Bioware to write huge roles for all 11+ squadmates from ME2? That'd be a terrible waste of resources, since they're all potentially dead. And, yes, the entire crew of ME2 is expendable, so I wouldn't expect very impressive roles from them in ME3.


I don't think that's necessarily the case.  Sure, not everyone will get large roles, but some very well may.  After all, Ashley and Kaiden were both potentially dead in the 1st game, but they've all but confirmed that your initial LI's will have a significant role in ME3.

More importantly, I think that Bioware recognizes that they have a couple of characters here that became overwhelming fan favorites.  It would be logical for them to include Tali and Garrus so that people retain an emotional connection to the story.  This is a pretty character-heavy game, after all -- your squadmates aren't there just to back you up in a firefight, the interpersonal relationships are a major attraction of the game.  Tali and Garrus are the only ones that have the potential to be the characters who make it all the way through the ME Trilogy with you;  that has major emotional weight with the player, and can help them connect with the earlier parts of the story.  I don't think they'll throw that away.

I certainly hope not anyway, I really do like those characters and I'd be very disappointed not to see at least them back in the game.

Support one hundred percent. In fact I made a group for tali's return specifically.

Ya, I don't expect them all to get big roles, but at the same time I don't expect them all to be refined to cameos. We're just rooting for the ones that have been with you since the beginning to return here.

I would love to see them both in the entire trilogy. Garrus and Tali are my main squad, and I hope they stick around for the last game.

When ME2 was announced all I wanted was to run into some of my squad mates. I say most because I could've done without Liara, Kaidan or Ashley(good thing I killed Ash).



I wanted Garrus to be a team member so I could romance him, but this was before I knew it was in the works.



What I fear is that since I romanced Garrus, both him and Fat Head(Liara) are going to make me choose. I chose Garrus even before Liara raped me.



In ME3 the LIs are supposed to have a big part, so I would expect any LI would pop up. I don't necessarily expect them on my crew. A chance to meet up with them, have my way with them and go to a mission is all I ask. They don't need to be at my heels the whole time. I won't set my hopes up high, this way if Garrus and Thane are in the 3rd game I'll be super happy.

Tali and Garrus have been with me for almost every mission since ME1. To me, Tali is the heart of my adventure and Garrus is the soul, so without either in ME3 I'd feel a tad empty inside.



I expect them to return, though. Both Garrus and Tali are fiercely loyal and unlike other character (*cough* Ashley/Kaiden/Liara *cough*) they think you're important enough to drop what they're doing and help you out.

Hopefully we have a system where you can pick what squadmates you want (or something similar). It would be such a shame to not have any of the ME2 characters in your squad after centering the entire game around them.

And if Garrus and Tali aren't viable squadmates, i might not buy ME3 :P

I'll be pretty angry if they take a cheezy method to remove them in ME3 to avoid romantic complications. Especially if they do so to force the ME1 relationships back in. Tali was always the true romance for my Shepard. Even back in the first game where there technically wasn't one.

Tali and Garrus were the two that stood behind you no matter what. It would suck if they were gone.

If the ME1 love interests return, the ME2 ones do too.

And I am VERY eager to see how "alien-bashing" Ashley reacts to the fact that I dumped her for the "bug-eyed alien" Tali. Romantic conflicts... my gawd, it's a Space Soap Opera!

Kaidan vs Garrus, the ultimate showdown. Garrus has reach, Kaidan has biotics. How's it going to end?!

With my FemShep renegade-interrupting Kaidan. So Garrus can put him down.

Its her fault, I was willing to stick with her until she totally b1tched me out.

A Mass Effect game without Tali would be like a KotOR game without HK-47. It's a must!

It will be interesting to see how they handle the characters in ME3. I mean how are they gonna do that? I'd rather have no new characters and just create a sqaud out of the ones you had in ME1 and ME2, but if your whole team dies or 4 die...how are they gonna do that?

Didn't Tali say at some point that they are considering her for Admiral?

Good question. They cant have some players start out with almost no one (not even Shepard), while others start out with so many of the old team.

As much as i hate the thought, i wager that ME3 will be set decades, if not centuries after ME2. Just look at the Reaper Fleet in the end. They've not even reached the milky way, yet, and they don't look like they're moving fast.

It might be that we only get to read a few dossiers on what happened to the old crew (including Shepard), while being forced to start with a new one, maybe a descendant (which would give some point to importing old saves)

Indeed.

The whole "they can die in me2" thing is moot. So can Shepard. How did they handle that? The import ends with ME2. They can easily just make the most popular characters (Tali/Garrus for the most part) canonical to survive.
