So how long till ME3? I want moar garrus, gah. I swear, I'm going to be that annoying kid in the car except in this case it'll just be me sitting behind the Bioware team.




Hyrulegal: Is it done yet?

Bioware team: No

Bioware team: We swear, if you ask ONE more time...

Hyrulegal:...Posted Image

Bioware team: We mean it! Don't even...

Hyrulegal:...Posted Image


Bioware team: We're warning you!!

Hyrulegal:...Posted Image

Bioware team: We know you're thinking it! Don't you dare!

Hyrulegal:...Posted Image

Bioware team: Please God no...

Hyrulegal: Is it done yet?

Bioware team: AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! YES , IT'S DONE, IT'S F**KING DONE! TAKE IT! TAKE THE SODDING GAME AND LEAVE! ANYTHING TO END THIS RELENTLESS TORTURE!

Hyrulegal: Wow! Thanks guys! I don't know what to say!

Bioware team: Please... don't say anything...just, just go. And stop breaking into this building every time you get an idea, USE A PHONE, the window repairs are costng us a small fortune.

Hyrulegal: A phone huh? Interesting. Well that's great because I have this really good idea for...

Bioware team: Does this have anything to do with Garrus being naked again?

Hyrulegal:...yes, but THIS time theres a waterfall!

Bioware: GET OUT!

*A few days later*

Hyrulegal: (While playing ME3) This game is great and everything but I can't help but notice all the small flaws, I really wish they had spent more time perfecting this game instead of just rushing it, pretty careless of Bioware really. Not to worry! I'll write a LONG list of all the problems I have with it and then I'll send it to Bioware, it's the only way they'll learn.

*Screaming is heard in the distance*

Hyrulegal: What was that?It sounded... Canadian *shrugs* Oh well, Number 1, "Garrus not naked enough" number 2...

Actually, they are going to make story-based DLC for Mass Effect 2, telling the story between ME2 and ME3...at least after they release Overlord

I realize I might be poking a hornet's nest or rehashing something buried in the 960-odd pages of this thread, so let me preface this by saying I am indeed a convert to Garrus...



...was I the only person who found it hard to care much about him the first time? I don't know, Mako-side Garrus always seemed a little...bland? Timid? It's hard to say. You can make up as many reasons as you like in hindsight, but until I got to see him for the rest of the game I wasn't that excited to learn it was him on Omega. ME2 Garrus is wicked, of course, and kudos to the writers that really made him 'pop' this time, but I just couldn't get into it in ME1. Your thoughts?

That's funny, Hyrule_Gal! Haha, poor bioware...



I liked Garrus from ME1, just not to the extent of awesomeness in ME2. I would have to agree with you Ape that I found him bland in comparison to Wrex (Wrex dominated ME1, ftw!) and even Kaidan.

I felt that way the first time I played the game actually. I liked him in the first game but he wasn't close to being my favorite character until the second game. Garrus over time became the favorite for me.

As for Omega, I wasn't expecting it to be Garrus until hearing from Garm that Archangel = Turian. That's what I get for not paying attention to the dossier and trailers/previews for the game I guess <.<. I was actually excited that Garrus = Archangel. Finally Shepard gets someone in his/her party that's actually trustworthy AND a friend (err and Tali too...later...w/e).

Personally, I really liked Garrus' character development in ME2. I didn't find him bland at all in ME1, however he was much more...reserved. In ME2 he stood out more. That said, I still really liked Garrus in ME1, I just like him even more in ME2.

No not bland, staid, secure, I enjoyed ME1 but his character really came into its own in ME2, and that I like very very much.

Thank you. I got a gallery over at Deviantart, all Garrus fans are welcome to visit and make odd comments. I admit there is a big lack of  Garrus and turians thus far but I'm working on that.

And I must thank the Garrus fans as well: Thanks for brightening up my morning! Every post here is entertaining.

Yeah. I liked him in ME1, but the way they developed him in ME2 was fantastic. I felt that the change in some of the other characters didn’t quite work for me (Liara kind of went from one extreme to the other. And Kaiden acted like a total tool on Horizen, which seemed a bit unlike his normal, level-headed, balanced approach to situations. Especially since discovering Shepard alive wasn’t exactly a shock to him. Though I guess it’s a bit unfair to make the comparison since those 2 got a lot less screen time.) I understand that losing Shepard affected them all quite a lot, but with Garrus I really felt that I understood why he had changed in the direction he did. It made a lot of sense. I also liked that you can see that he hasn’t just been shaped by losing Shepard, but by the other events that had shaped his life within those 2 years. OK, so we don’t have the greatest amount of detail about Garrus: the Omega years, but I think that BK and the artists did a really great job in showing the character transformation that, from where I’m sitting, comes across as having been a gradual one over some time. I could still see ME1 Garrus underneath it all in ME2. He is just more world-weary, slightly more hardened, but also more confident and independent (aside from the whole loss of confidence after his team died, thing. But you can tell that that is more of a momentary setback in terms of how overly more confident in himself he has become. ME1 Garrus was cocky, yes. But I think a lot of that was bravado. ME2 Garrus knows his job, and knows he can damn well get it done. The fact that he will challenge Shepard over Legion, or challenge Miranda over being team leader shows this.)
 
But of course, I’m a tad biased. I just really loved the way Garrus had developed in ME2, but I think you can tell he is still very much the same person underneath it all.
 
I would love it if ME3 took his character development in different directions depending on the outcome of the Sidonus incident and conversations with Shepard regarding it. A bit like the ‘hardening’ thing in DA:O. Let’s see how in game events actually change these people.

I'm a big fan of Garrus, and I've been lurking here for a while, and just decided to step out of the woodwork to make one quick request.


Hello lurker :wizard:

Failing team

I hope this works for you!

Also, someone said "Garrustair?"

Sexy scarred turian face with human body for minimum amount of chafing!

Alright, off to kill more darkspawn.


I've just got this image of the Gray Warden fighting the archdemon..until Garrus snipes it from a tower.

I liked the fact there were other things beside Shepard who shaped who Garrus was, he was living by some sort of code but messed up, thats got to affect you somehow. As far as not having a lot of detail especially about what happened on Omega - its ripe for a novel, (just finished reading revelations and starting to read ascension, I think they could do a lot with some of the side stories - especially considering how much fanfic there is out there) I guess they tried to do that with Liara too, and maybe they have intentions with her (other than what was in Redemption) that will be played out in ME3. Like you Janey I wonder how the whole Sidonis episode is going to play out - I have 3 Sheps, 2 let Sidonis live, 1 lets him die be nice if the story arc was in different directions.

Draw anyway! And show us here please, more Garrus art is always a good thing. Even though turians seems to be designed to be as hard as possible to draw.

This is not the first time I hear this, I've read it a lot on these boards. Many people appreciate the way BW wrote Garrus to be more 'interesting'. For me, Garrus was already my second favourite in ME1, but he always got overshadowed by Wrex. Because... well, it's Wrex!

Maybe it has something to do with that mentor-student relationship you have with Garrus in ME1? You get to know what he wants and what he hates, but other than that his personality is not really defined yet. Maybe that didn't make him jump out in the crew? With paragoning/renegading him through dialogue and the way you handle Dr. Saleon, you can 'mold' him, confirm the way he thinks or change his views about how to do things. In ME2, his personality is much more developed and defined and he can shine as the Garrus he is. He is still willing to listen to Shepard, but is not afraid to speak his mind when he disagrees with something. New and improved Garrus 2.0. (this is pure speculation from my part, because I already liked him in ME1 :P)

For me, Tali was the one who grew on me in ME2. I didn't think much of her in ME1, thought she was a walking Wiki about quarians and geth. A nice and kind Wiki, but nothing more. In ME2 she really became an individual and I got really fond of her. I think BW did a good job taking both Tali and Garrus, putting them in ME2 and making them grow.

This. Depending on how you handled the Saleon case and the dialogue you pick during his LM, the only difference was a few lines. I really hope the paragoning/renegading of Garrus and being consistent/inconsistent with this will show in his development in ME3. That would be very interesting.

Alright, I really have to go and learn... I have two resits on Thursday and Friday and I really should spend less time here talking about Garrus :D

I think Garrus was just more reserved in ME1. In ME2 he was much less reserved, so he stood out more. Either way he's awesome, so yea.
