I think you're partially incorrect in your first major point. I believe that the the inability to focus on Tali's face is one of the biggest reasons many started to become attracted to her... but over the course of two games and numerous conversations with the lovely lady it is most certainly her charming personality that is the primary reason for attraction now. I find this is true of both myself and many people in this thread, who have previously relayed similar opinions. Sure, it can be fun to draw a mental image of her, but I feel there comes a time that this mysterious element of her must be cleared away. It is not essential that we see her face, but it seems like it would be a sad thing to be denied the pleasure. We've gone so long getting to know and love her, and to never be able to fully know her would just be tragic.


Well written, IMO. I'm not impartial in the debate as to whether Tali's face should be revealed or not (I favour such a move). There comes a time when curiosity for mystery must be rewarded by something tangible, otherwise it merely becomes an ongoing tease. While a certain amount of playful teasing can be enjoyable it can become trite if carried too far. Tali'Zorah's character deserves better than to become a tired, hollow tease, IMO.

Ooh, thank you! "Well written" is high praise, especially coming from you, KFD! ^__^

And yes, I tended to recall your opinion on this debate. You were definitely one of the people I was referring to by 'many people in this thread'. XD

Damn.

Is anyone here an orphan with Tali (meaning nonspacer background)?


I don't think it much matters past the first game's sidequests and opening scene... But yes "one" of my saves is an orphan. :whistle:


True, it doesn't effect much, but can you imagine that family reunion?

....probably too soon Image IPB


I am surprised you hear nothing of Shepards father when your a spacer. Or did he pass away an I'm just forgetting?

My Shepard's mom - Capt. Hannah Shepard of the dreadnaught "Ishimura" - is proud of her son. I like to think she would be an accepting mother-in-law of the sweet girl that is Tali'Zorah.


Its too bad that a scene with them probably won't be worked into ME3

I'm spacer too

I'd always assumed he died, but never mentioned, as far as I know

Indeed, I don't wish to argue against the revealing, however there are some who would oppose total ongoing visual of her face. I am one of these fans, I would love to know what Tali looks like, but I trust Bioware to keep it quick and discrete when they do so. I hope they also make it a challenge, perhaps a paragon action (with a required amount of paragon necessary to do so) would be suitable.

This point has been brought up numerous times, I for one did not become interested in her due to her face being a mystery, in fact I don't even realize that you can't see her face when I'm playing the game. But after building up our relationship with her for the past two games it wouldn't seem to make sense to keep her face hidden. I don't even have a mental image of what she looks like, besides what you can already see through the mask, Bioware has not dissapointed with any of the other Li's features and I highly doubt that they will ruin a characters face that they have had so much time to work on. Sure there will always be  those who will complain that she doesn't look right etc, but I will be happy with whatever bioware decides to make her look like, because no matter how our minds imagine her face to be, bioware I'm sure always has known what quarians look like, so the what we think they look like isn't correct anyway. 


We share the exact same sentiments on this matter. To this day I still haven't put together a complete mental imagen of what Tali's face may look like, and it does nothing to detract from my love of her personality. Now how to meet such a person in the female form in my own life.....

Ooh, I actually quite like the idea of making it a 'challenge'. Can't believe I never thought of it before... but it'd be perfect! Those who care enough finally get what they want! :lol:
