I think that it's meant to be dark red and black armor with blue glowy accents. Which is why the red/orange visor just looks so strange--it would go great with the blue glowy visor. Whyyyy, Bioware, whyyyyy?



But yeah, I'm happy he isn't running around in busted armor, at least.

It's kinda depressing hearing that so many people don't think in terms of "attractive garrus".

-Their predatory eyes.
-Broad shoulders: masculine body.
-Tall.
-Athletic.
-Their voices not only add to that manliness, also include a very attractive distortion.
-Military society: discipline, honor, uniforms.

Those are the most general turn-ons I can think of. Others may be more subjective, like their faces looking kinda like masks (and I have a thing for masks  ), or I don't share them.

This. Turians are damn sexy. Physically, Thane is a bit more attractive. The whole package, definitely Turians .

Well, I've found that we all quite like Garrus's romance because they've have a deep, meaningful friendship, first. Does anybody also find Garrus, or turians in general, quite attractive, or hot?

I do. I always take it for granted, what surprises me is how many fans love him without finding him attractive. xD

He is handsome. He is physically attractive. 

This, exactly! I find turians all sorts of hot, and I have no shame in admitting it.

As for the idea of Shepard and Garrus marrying at some point (or whatever the turian equivalent is), I guess I'm in the minority here, but I would have no problem with it. (I'm one of the fangirls who went into a spastic fit of glee when she found out she could marry Alistair in DA:O. ) That's not to say that I have a mental image of a traditional human wedding, with Garrus in a tux and Shepard walking down the aisle in a big froofy wedding dress, because that would be, uh, weird beyond description. But if it were just some kind of small, simple ceremony -- or even just going to the courthouse and signing papers -- I would be fine with that. My Shepard has no intention of leaving Garrus; no reason not to make it official. Also, marriage doesn't have to equal "settling down." They could be married or mated or bonded or whatever you want to call it and still go around the galaxy kicking ass.

Ixnay on the kids, though. I just can't really see either one of them having the time for kids given their jobs -- and that's not even getting into whether or not they would even want them.

Why?  He's attractive, but it's not for his looks, at least not for me.  I didn't see him and go "DAAAAAAANG break me off a piece of that carapace!"  I thought "He seems pretty cool."  Then later "Wow his voice is kind of sexy."  Then later "What are these feeeeeelings insiiiiide?"

It's possible to find his personality really attractive while not wanting to 'hit it'.  I find Turian bodies very aesthetically attractive, but not really on a sexual level.  Nothing wrong with that, IMHO

That is best thing about Garrus, he is not good looking to humans at all. He comes into the game looking like a cross between a cat a dinosaur and predator. Bioware did a great job quickly humanizing him to the point of friendship and trust. His personality countered his appearance, exhausted, lost, defeated.

After you get to know him a little you understand why he came to this point in his life. While he looks the most 'alien' of your team he reacts to situations in a more humanistic way than shepard does.
(The sight of hundreds of people die while watching the criminals tip toe around the system to freedom. His disappointed father hounding him for every decision he makes. The sudden death of Sheppard and finally the betrayal of Sidonis and the murder of the team he recruited in hopes of bringing hope to a distorted world.)

He was almost like a child in mass effect 1, complaining about everything always asking before he did anything. He was more of a little brother to me in mass effect 1. Yeah I loved him but I was more concerned on looking out for him while he discovers his place after C-sec.
Once I ran into him in mass effect 2 I could instantly see the changes Bioware made to him.

I was very proud of myself for not spoiling anything when it came to this game. (Heck i did not watch any trailers because i wanted to go in knowing nothing.)
While talking to him about finding Sidonis I felt an attraction between the two of them, while Garrus had become space batman he still felt a little anxious. Looking back now I know all of your squad mates ask for your help in a personal cross road in their life. However his gave me a feeling of honor that he would trust me in helping him. The now strong, bad ass Garrus asking for my help. In my first play through I never side with being "good" or "evil" I just make whatever choice I think is proper, most of the time I am nice but not on this mission. His mission made me evil; I wanted to kill everyone who did this to him. 

I am not crazy about videogames, I mostly find myself watching my husband play them unless he recommends I play it myself. (only when he is done with it first -.-) I never intended to find anything in the department of romance like this. I went into to mass effect 2 with the same mindset that 1 had. You are 'given' a character to romance.

No offence to Kaidan, he is a good character but... it felt like flirting with the man your mom and dad arranged you to marry. Garrus was left field for some of us, (I know there was a crazy cult of girls who idolized him, I can't say i was.)

It honestly caught me off guard when i realized i fell for him.
That is romance.

Ditto.  Well, except for the not crazy about video games part.  Unless it's Bioware.

All I knew was that Garrus was in ME2.  No idea that he was Archangel until I talked to the Blood Pack boss.

Well, the "attraction" came after the romance, for me.  Even though this is the Jacob game, I find myself gritting my teeth because I'd rather my Shep be hitting on the Infiltrator in the gunnery bay, not the Vanguard in the armory.


Garrus inspired me to write about why Meghan chose him over Kaidan.  Not many characters do that.

So since we'd all like to marry Garrus... how would you like to get kids with him?

a) adopt turian

b)adopt human

c) adopt both turian and human

d) ask Mordin to mix your dna in a test tube and get an übercute mongrel that everyone will be scared of and that prolly can't reproduce ?

I think I'd adopt both turian and human babies.

a) Turian society seems to have a place for orphans, they really take care of their own and would likely frown on such things. Besides, at 15? Mandatory military service.

Eh. I just don't see Shep and Garrus as parents anyway.

c) see a) and

d) Illegal, as clearly expressed by codex entries.

Seriously!  And d is effing horrifying, good lord.  Anybody seen Alien Resurrection?!  It'd be a quivering mass of flesh hissing "kill... me..."

in short:
I am sure you did not just pick up the box of ME1 and point to him and say
HUBBA HUBBA
His personality made you take a second look at him with a raised eyebrow.

Seriously, what are those wires on his face? They look like they're wired to his injured mandible. Do they replace the bandage? Edit: Look at it in the larger pic. I'm fine with the rest of the outfit, but beer helmet tubes just look stupid.

The thought of not finding Garrus physically attractive depresses you? I get why some people do, and  Mr Keener has a sexy voice, but if I'm honest, if I saw a Turien walking down the street in real life, I'd probably be like 'WFT IS THAT?" and maybe run away. lol

I think it's great that people find Garrus is attractive as a character without necessarily finding Turiens in general 'sexy'. It shows how emotionally invested we've become. We've all said it - Garrus is the character with the deepest connection to Shepard. Actually, as a pretty fan-girly Garrus fan myself, I'm always glad to hear from so called 'plutonic Garrus fans' - it shows me my Garrus bias isn't the only reason he is the coolest freaking mother out there!

That being said, if Turiens in sexy blue armour, carrying big ass guns happen to do it for you, then more power to ya!

LOL about this...QFT yes! xD haha. I imagine my space mommy freaks out..."What about Kaidaan guyy, QQ?! But To be honest I didn't hear her whole my Spacer Me2 playtrough! I guess that I missed to do that quest in Me1, heck I didn't hear her even in Me1 ))))) I found out in Me2 over forum that I have mother xD so my space mommy seems to not care very much for her daughter. I hate spacer mommy , she seems like some damn careerist. If she will crap in Me3 about Garrus I wish to do punch interrupt on her...wow...I sound very bad now xD...

Those pre-date stainless steel, so he can't get them wet.

No chewing gum in ME3.

The hell are those glowing wires on his jaw?

Cybernetics, where the bandage used to be, where half his face got blown off. Probably nano- and nutrient tubes to help regrow what can be regrown - the bandages certainly implied he'd lost a lot of tissue.

That is a very good point.  

I don't find them hideous, like say... Alien or Predator.  They're a beautifully rendered species with lots of detail.

Garrus is attractive because he's GARRUS.

Yes, dear. Apparently a bunch of us are turians trapped in human bodies. (I accept that what I like isn't always attractive to others, but I get UBER FRUSTRATED with being told what is or is not attractive to me. I am human. Garrus - and male turians - are attractive to me. Get over it, those of you who do not share my xenophilia. I do not try to force it on y'all that I find some fictional beings smexy; stop trying to state my preferences for me pl0x.)

Okay. Off to RL. Pics within the week of costume progress since I think we found the good digital camera. Just need to find the memory cards.

EDIT - PS, I read the rest of the post. And yes, I did go "Oh COOL! Smexay dragon-alien!" - but what you describe happened with Wrex. I did not find him physically attractive at first. ("Oh COOL! Badass turtle Chow-Yun Fat alien!" - but the smexay did not happen til later.)
