Also cannot wait for ME3. Anticipation is killing me, and it has only been a few weeks since ME2 release. Hopefully dlc will help.

Trouble. Long time to wait. Hope for excellent DLC.


Concur.

Guess I'll try again. :whistle:

While people are recommending songs, I thought that I would nominate one that I believe fits even better than the previous song that someone mentioned.



It starts off slow and picks up pace throughout the song, the lyrics are uplifting but not as cheesy as a straightforward love song, and it's got a "spacey" feel to it (especially the solo) which I think fits nicely into the Mass Effect universe. Anyways, just my opinion.

Thoughts?

DLC will sure help.

I actually hope they take their time with ME3. Because guys, don't you realize? When we beat ME3... It'll be like our lives are over. I had a hard enough time getting over beating ME2. But imagine what sorrow it will be when ME3 will be over. It'll be... man, it'll be hard on us.

I thought it was pretty good. I also wanna make a vid using this song, but it'll be revolved around ME2 not just Tali and Shepard. Favorite song in the world, but you guys may not like it. :P

Was Tali a virgin before Shepard? Just curious.


Yeah, It's practically confirmed with her saying she's never linked her suit environment with anyone. I also think it's safe to assume she's never even had a boyfriend. 

When you think about it, it's almost indescribable the amount of attraction she must have for Shepard. You have to consider that a guy like Shepard would be extremely appealing to any "typical" woman; he's a handsome, very famous hero who commands a certain amount of power and respect. But you also have to consider Tali's personal issues. She grew up feeling little love and affection from her primary male role model, her father. A man like Shepard, who not only has a few years of age over her, but is also in a position of authority, would instantly appeal to a girl like Tali who's lacked affection from her father. And even on top of all of that, you have to factor in the isolation and lack of physical contact that the Quarian lifestyle entails. 

You combine all of that, with the fact that Shepard is (probably) her first real love, and you basically have a perfect storm of affection and attraction from Tali towards Shepard. If Tali and Shepard are ever separated, Tali would be emotionally devastated beyond words. 

this is all true as when Shep says he has feelings for her, she almost jumps in the air. Posted Image

Utter shock


In the following scene, where they talk near the Ship's core, she goes on to say that she acted unprofessional, she was selfish, that Shepard deserves someone better, etc.

Having her express those thoughts was a *great* touch. Basically, it translates into her being in a slight denial over the thought of Shepard having feelings for her; it registers as "too good to be true" for her.

Honestly, Tali and Shepard's romance is so perfectly crafted and genuine; I can't figure out if it was the product of pure genius or an extremely good accident; maybe it's a little of both? I really can't think of a better crafted love story, in any medium.

I like muse, but still. Cliche.
That's why I don't use top of the pop charts (or rock) songs anymore. Very rarely anyway. I use actual trailer music, and I make actual trailers.
But then again, I was like everyone else when I started. That was a long time ago. Video editing is my passion and hopefully will be my career.
Hell, I want to work for Bioware and make trailers and cutscenes. Seriously.

Faunts has good music for that too.  They are a similar style.  They did the credits song for m1.
Check out some of their stuff
I like the song.  Muse is pretty great

Pure win, simply because it's Muse. The lyrics fit very well, too, but the drumroll back-beat really puts the song off for me for the ShepardxTali pairing. Otherwise, it would have been perfect. =/

Well, I think the second coolest Quarian Female is the one you find arguing with the Volus about the chit. If we didn't have Tali, I'd be going for her.

I think it would be cool if you could buy her a ship, i'm rich enough in that game anywayPosted Image


You know speaking of that... I was always a little skeptic about the commonly favored "Build a house on her homeworld" ending, which I like the idea of, but the general ending will be...weird. Neither of them will enjoy still and static life on ground I think... Maybe they should get themselves a big ship that will be piloted by Joker and live there. Similar to the migrant fleet ships. Won't help her immunity system, of course, but it's not like she can adapt to her new homeworld in her lifetime anyway. Maybe other party members who have nowhere else to go can live there, like Garrus. Or at least come there every so often for refuge or whatever.


Aye, it's one of those things where we (the players) being outside actors living vicariously through the in-game characters come to care for many of them and want so dearly to see them all happy and together. I feel it too yet if we think about it how many of us would want to have even our best friends and family constantly around us? I love my family, I love my most recent ex-gf unconditionally and still I enjoy - even need - a bit of alone time. If we are going to be realistic about this the characters in ME1 & 2 will be the same way.

Btw, I think it was Xhia Hu who posted a Muse "Invincible" song link - I like it. I agree with you that it could fit quite nicely with a ME fan video.

I actually agree with you, I'll take epic music over rock/pop songs in trailers any day.

I like the sounds of the song, but not the lyrics.  Its too depressing for Shepard honestly.  I mean, its literally about running away.
  I always saw Shepard as a damaged, but very confident, hero.    This is regardless of Pragon or Renegade.

Perfect for Tali. Refusal to believe something good happened to her. Feelings of love tempered by humble nature. Makes acceptance more important for her.

excited for ME3 for when Ash joins the Normandy. She is gonna be pissed at me when she sees who i hooked up with. lol. anyone else excited for this reaction?


Oh yes. I did like Ash in ME1 but I would have picked Tali first if it were possibly (it was not). I don't like to see any of the ME characters suffer at my Shepard's hands emotionally though. Playing with people's hearts is not something to be taken lightly, IMO. I don't appreciate it when others do that to me.

You can blame the author of Twilight for Muse's current sky-rocketing popularity. She bugged so much, that they finally gave in and let her use their music for the Twilight movies. Which, in turn, made all the "Twi-tards"(I have nothing against them) flock to their music.

And I watched a few of your trailers and such on Youtube. Purdy good! I have a few nit-picks here and there, but hey, everyone does. Comes with having our own opinions.

Ahh... young love.

The part that stands out most for me is during her and Shepard's talk in the engine room, how, with the correct dialogue choice, she says she's been watching Shepard for 'so long', describing key moments through [my] Shepard's career. That's when it *really* sunk in to me how deeply she appreciates, admires, and cares for him.


Bingo.

Heart of stone. And iron. And lies.
Would fix. Can't. That root of my obsession with Tali. Fixes. Temporarily.

If I do a vid using that song, it'll be about Mass Effect in general. Basically, I'll just use action shooting cutscenes. :P It has no relevance to Tali or Shepard.

Not sure if anyone saw this. I posted this 40 pages ago. Not exactly for Tali, but the end of it has her in it.
