Somebody is going to get sued.  By games workshops.  I'll make sure of it.



Thank you for your time.

(which is to say: For the love of god bioware, don't give in to the Tali freaks and make Quarians space elves, that's just one step on the road to a universe where 600 foot tall mechs made out of scrap metal face off against planet sized biological organisms, some random undead emperor thing can kill people galaxies awayby just thinking about them, and red space ships go fast because their pilots think it makes them go faster.)

Quarians don't have visible ears.

Yes, but have you noticed that 90% of tali fan art puts her as a night elf in a quarian suit...

Well, she does seem to have glowing eyes.

People don't really want a space elf, they just want Tali to be attractive.

Yea, they're wrong. I agree that I don't want quarians to be space elves. Fortunately, I don't need to hope because they won't even have ears.

Because 90% of those artists played too much WoW :pinched:

... thankfully I belong to the 10%, the sane variaty of Tali fans.

... then again I'm a fan of every ME1 character, as they don't suck.

The Tali freaks got Tali added as a romance option, don't be so sure they can't pressure the devs on the appearance of quarians without their helmets.

"Dear Bioware. Do not make Quarians look attractive. Because space elves are beautiful and making them look like space elves would be stupid. Make them look like the monster from "Alien" or the Predator."



Personally, I'm not for or against the space elf look, but, seriously, if Tali DOES look like a beautiful space elf... how on EARTH is that a bad thing?

I expect them to be reptilian or possibly avian as they seem to have a number of biological similarities with Turians (who look like reptiles to me).

90% of art is an exaggeration...most Tali is art doesn't even have her out of her suit at all. Most of the tali fanbase is "sane" :l

ME already has space elves. They're called the Asari.

Because elves do not belong in space.  Just look at Warhammer 40 K.  Any attempts to make that universe semiserious (which they have actually tried to do) is laughable because of the space orcs and space elves.

@Collider: That's a serious estimate.  I've only seen one tali fan art that doesn't put her as a space elf.

I'm a big Tali fan, and i hope to God that they don't make Quarians look like any sort of elves. that would just be so boring and uncreative. They did such a great job with so many of the other races, i want something genuinely new and interesting for Quarians, even if it isnt classically "attractive."

It's going to be one extreme or the other with Tali.



I will not be surprise if Tali's face is something less than "pleasant."



Something to put the Talimancers in an awkward position of "loving her no matter what."



Let me tell you, RAGE will be had, perhaps the worst ever to grace the BW forums.

She'll be gray with a large nose and have scales like the Drell only 75% larger and the scale will be symmetrical. No ears and hair like feathers on her scalp .

I also have a question.... what does a Space Elf look like? Is it just the ears, or are there other features? 'Cause if Tali is fey and pretty looking, yet she's got purple skin, three fingers, and chicken feet, does she still "look like a space elf"?

I'm sure Elves are smart enough to figure out space travel eventually.

They're not reptilian. They look like raptors but with chitin-looking metallic skin plating.

Just because Quarians and Turians have some similarities in body structure doesn't mean they should look at all alike - they evolved on seperate planets, so any similarities between them are purely coincidental.

Garlador: Yes, if she has human like hair, human like skin, and vaguely human like facial proportions (In addition to the pointy ears.)

Which is what most of the fan art puts her as.

Default137: You play Orks in 40 K, don't you?
