I've done three bromance-esque sketches of Shepard and Garrus.

Forcing us to choose between Wrex and Garrus? Hardest choice since choosing the fate of the heretic geth...

[Lemonwizard]

In my dramatic retelling of ME2, I pretty much wrote Garrus as the head bro.

Please do ray. More pat on the backs, handshakes, brofists, brohugs and what not instead of headbumps and purring<_<

Hope you have/are having a good time, Ray Joel Oh.

I think anniezard made some "bro" sketches, if anybody wants to see some "bro" sketches..

I want more conversations from Garrus. Maybe in ME3 he'll have two different conversation sets for if you romanced or non-romanced him in ME2

@Flammie.  I understand the dilemma. You could be half honest (like I do at work sometimes...:innocent:) and claim valid use of the net, erasing browser history afterwards, if it bothers you that much. Or half-truths. Also, IMO 'normal' is a relative term.  

Hmmm... have just realised I may be leading a minor astray for the selfish reasons of not wanting to lose our beloved mascot. :huh:Maybe don't listen to me. lol

Eh, I'm fine. I'm generally paranoid enough to delete browsing history anyway.

[Collider]

I'm actually not sure how they're going to handle the conversation in ME3...I mean, talking to Garrus (or whatever love interest) puts the conversation in different contexts depending on whether or not you romanced them. Is it going to be regular conversations with some romance dialogue sprinkled on if you romanced them? Or are there seperate sets, like Flammie said, depending on romance or non-romance? Something to think about.

[Nivenus]

Obviously Shepard and Garrus will go to Afterlife and get dead drunk and party. And do (mildly) stupid things. As we men are prone to do when we mix friends and alcohol.

[Re_spawNZ7]

Yeah, I am hoping they go all-out on conversation. I realise with so many characters that will be a huge undertaking, but it is the last in the series and Bioware have said they (of course) want it to be bigger and better than ME2. I am really hoping that there are unique conversations during missions or a change in interaction between you and LI - but maybe that is too much to hope for...



I will still keep hoping though ;oP

Hmm, that is an interesting question. Completely different conversations when you romanced him, or the same conversations with a little romance/bromance twist to it? I don't know what I'd prefer, actually. But I do know that I really wanted manShep to comment on the reach and flexibility story. Or a brofist or something.

But no matter how they handle it in ME3, I'm sure I'll be whining for more.

Hey, I support femShep and Garrus getting drunk at Afterlife too. The Garrus fangirls have a reputation for being alcoholics. And of course being drunk will result in silly exclamations.



(Let's hope Eradyn won't see this and strangle another puppy )

The whole crew should go and party at Afterlife anyway.

Oh, and Rebe, I loove your avatar.

It's a tough question for me Cerry. On one hand



a) If it's just the regular conversations with romance sprinkled on, it may not feel unique enough. I know every romance interest would logically act different towards Shepard if he/she romanced them.



Then again Bioware is pretty good at making these things seem flowing and seamless. Most of the time.



If it's different conversation sets, then we may be losing out on the regular conversation stuff...



My brain is going to explode. I'll just give Bioware the benefit of the doubt.

lol, those are exactly the concerns I'm having. I mean, it's a romance, I want to talk about us with Garrus. But I don't want to miss out on the friends conversations, just because we're in a romance. Lovers can be friends. But then it isn't unique again. And I don't want Garrus to be 'closed' more, just because you're a manShep and can't romance him.

Argh. I just hope BW will handle the bromance right. It's the last part of the trilogy. I just want it to go right. Just once...

I also support this! (I support NPC human female at bar drunkenly making Garrus uncomfortable. Regardless of LI status).

I already tried to get the "They have to do a mission drunk" support thread going. Imagine it: screen all wonky, and the team members all shouting out strange drunken exclamations.

Garrus: Wooooo! I'm kicking ass! Wait.... they won't hold still. Hold still!

(I'm thinking mission is activated by drinking in a bar on Omega or somewhere, and an NPC invites you to a party at his. Shep is like "Hells yeah!" but it's a trap! Drunken fight ensues as more and more mercs pile into the place. Eventually, they are all dead and you can leave. Post mission cutscene shows them all being pretty rough, and proclaiming they are never drinking again. etc. )

Re: Tali/Garrus. I can't see them as a couple.. but I even have a problem with the sibling thing. I think Garrus likes Tali alright, and is even quite fond of her, but he expresses this via his snarkyness, and she just always seems annoyed by him, but not in an endearing way. Like, I don't think they'd hang out together if it weren't for Shep. (I also think Tali would be kinda jealous of Shep's romance AND bromance with Garrus for some reason, but that's just me).

Re: Romance convo vs friends convo. I'd like there to be different experiences, actually. Point 1, it adds replayability, point 2: while you can be friends with yourl over (hopefully even best friends) it's still a different dynamic. You share/don't share different information in a different way. I really want the LI thing to be a big factor for the character though. I mean, if I come into ME3 and Garrus seems to have forgotten my FemShep was ever his FemShep, I will be disappoint. And team banter that takes into account the different relationships going is a must! Dragonage proved they can do it well, so I'm optimistic!

[Flammie]

I think I would prefer two romance sets, but there's the obvious drawback of missing on on friendly conversation. The only other alternative is yeah, normal conversation with romance twists, but then it's not unique.

Or perhaps if you're talking about Garrus' story and stuff, both romance and non-romance get the same dialogue, but when it gets more personal, "bro/sis" or lover stuff, then it splits into two sets?

Perhaps another option is Garrus ignoring you outright. Which would make everybody rage.

Shepard: Garrus.
Garrus: ...*calibrating*
Shepard: Have you got a minute?
Garrus: ...*calibrating*
Shepard: I'll leave you to it.
Garrus: ...*calibrating*
Shepard: GRAGH! *punches Garrus in the face*
Garrus: ...*calibrating*

Your sig's pretty cool, and so's your avatar Rebe70.

Hmm... it just occured to me that this thread gets quite a lot of lurkers. I remember lurking for a bit at the start before getting a hold of myself and posting. I guess I've relaxed a bit.

It's a good suggestion, but you still run into the problem that it may not feel "unique enough". I'm in favour of this option though, because mostly romance-y dialogue and little romance-y dialogue would both feel out of place. I'm feeling hopeful that Bioware will manage to find a good compromise.

You're not the only one who's delurked for this thread. I lurked right from the old forums until...I think it may have been "Garrus Love III" (before we were called "Garrus Love and Adoration"). This is the only place I actually post on the internet at the moment. It just goes to show how friendly and welcoming this thread is.

EDIT: Haha, found my first delurk - It was squeeing over finding out Garrus could indeed be romanced
And then I disappeared forever for another few pages and then not until the next thread (I think). So many things I'd forgotten about! (Such as facebook chat shenanigans. Does that still exist?)
Also, looking at the old threads makes me realise just how many people don't post here anymore

Yeah pretty much all this, especially that last statement. I shall have faith in Bioware and hope they don't let me down (like they did with Awakening. )

Also, I pity da fools that lurk here. One: they must be horribly emotionally scarred by our insane shenanigans, and C: they're missing out on all the drunken fun!  I lurked from way back when too. Glad I just jumped in when I did! This place is the most fun I've had on the internets for...well ever.

Morning, y'all.



As for Tali and Kal'Reegar, I can see them more if you're a FemShep. I'll have to wait for my husband to finally finish ME1 and get to ME2 before I see how it goes with a MaleShep. But in no way do I see Tali and Garrus together, even before he came on my Shep's romantic radar.



They just... no. Can't even imagine. And I can imagine quite a lot.



I do hope they give us more dialogue with all of the characters in ME3 in the style of Dragon Age. Especially squad banter. Especially regarding Shep's LI's. I so want someone to give Garrus tips like Zevran tried to give to Alistair. I laughed so hard at that conversation.

[Mr.BlazenGlazen]

ima bump teh thread. gewd morning guis

[Xsause]

The PC version's controls feel quite natural, the only thing that's annoying is that some things got switched around between ME1 and ME2. It's not that hard to get used to.

[Cerrydd]

I was late to the party, as always... I didn't own ME1, so I never got on the old forums. The only time I googled Mass Effect was to see where all the keepers hid ><. After finishing ME2, I got on this board to see if there was any Garrus love... and holy crap, an entire topic dedicated to dat turian! Woohoo!

And now this is my favourite thread to F5 .

Possible conversation in ME3: Gah... let's just hope BW will do a good job.

Shepard: "Do you have a minute to talk or are you in the middle of calibrations again?"
Garrus: "Calibrations, again? No, Shepard, I already finished them in the last game."
