I would tend to agree.  I didn't like Wrex (his badass shtick irritated me sometimes, and he seemed like a loose cannon).  Garrus was just the average renegade cop, etc.  I'll admit that Garrus grew on me, to the point where he got to go to the final showdown with me ("bring a turian to kill a turian" was the thought.  Garrus popped some lead into Saren's cranium.  I was not disappointed).

Then ME2 comes along and suddenly all these guys are golden to me.  I guess it was the shared history.  When I saw Garrus again, I was like "hot damn, it's my bro!"  And Wrex yelling "Shepard, my friend!" made me smile wide.

Heck, when you bump into the quarians on Freedom's Progress, my first thought was "damn looters!"  And then Tali appears and it's like an angelic choir started singing.

:wub:

Nothing better in ME1 than taking Tali and Garrus to kill Saren.

EDIT btw epoch I couldn't resist...I don't care what my friends think, I want them to ask who's that in the corner :P

Be proud of Tali, dammit! :wub:


ha ha, there we go. If you absolutely must, it takes all of 2 seconds to revert it back to default.

yes that´s much better like that. I (like the most of you, I guess) have a tali background on my desktop. but since my browser is open most of the time i couldn´t see her as often as I wish to. But now, thanks to Epoch I can. :)

Well if its any consolation, Garrus did settle in as my 3rd favorite.  Lame may have been a little strong, I more meant that I liked him a lot less than I did in ME2.  I think part of it was that I wasn't a big fan of turians at first.  Aside from Garrus, they all came off as arrogant, usually racist jerks, and they painted the whole race negatively for me.  I actually like Garrus more on later playthroughs than the first as I got over my preconceptions.  His position as a character who could either go over to the good side or renegade side was interesting, but again, I didn't even notice that until my 2nd or 3rd playthrough.

I had a similar outlook on turians originally, but now I think they're probably the closest to humanity psychologically.

Seriously, Epoch... I don't think "thanks" is enough. You've really made my life a little bit better! ^^

For me, the characters in ME1 in general underwhelmed me.  Wrex was awesome from the time he showed up, but the rest aside from Tali weren't particularly interesting.  People love Garrus now, but I thought he was pretty lame in ME1 as well.  Eventually it came down to Tali being the least disinteresting because of her unique situation/background.  Then as I started taking her everywhere and talking to her I got slowly Talindoctrinated :wub:

I actually liked Wrex's badass schtick because it seemed legitimate to me.  I didn't really think for a second that he was pretending.  There's a difference to me between a person who is legitimately badass, and a person who acts tough and will back down.  I didn't get that feeling from Wrex.  I didn't see him as too much of a loose cannon, at least not when you look at his race in general.  By human standards he would be, but I actually saw his restraint at points as a character strength.

The old friend nostalgia feeling is definitely strong in ME2.  My biggest regret from going into ME2 was finding out that archangel was Garrus.  I got all excited when it first happened and I already knew who he was.  If I got caught by surprise there, it would have been a lot better.  The fact that everyone loves Tali and Garrus speaks to how much everyone loves the old members returning.

I agree there, that said, I can't see too many people looking favorably on humans as a whole from an alien perspecitve :?

Garrus is a bro, but you gotta admit
he's a born loser.  Hasn't succeeded at a damn thing in life unless Shep
was there with him.


Garrus is freaking Legolas. Just an
average warrior, but the most skilled fighters out of all their race.
Both should be generals or something based on fighting skill alone, and
only good as a sidekick lol ok that was a stretch but w/e he's awesome :P

I thought of that when Shepard argued with that Asari on the Citadel, "if you want something shot, ask a Turian" lol and the Asari on Illium, I brought Garrus and Tali, and you say "what have you got against humans" and she's like "It's not just the humans, the Turians and the Quarians are just as much to blame for the Geth invasion". Then camera pops back to us 3, *cold stare*.

Big surprise here, my tali persona for firefox is the most popular one I have.
http://www.getperson.../persona/119645

Let me know if you need any help with it.


Request time. Is it possible to make one with Tali and Shepard in that same position, with the other squaddies all on the left? Or in the middle so you can create a space and halfway cover up everyone else :D

The problem with that is there's really only so much room I can work with. Original tali theme had what you currently see and the tali waterfall pic where the refresh button is, but that would only look right in certain resolutions.

Its best for everyone if i keep it simple.
