And the discussion that started ~10 years ago with the first ME (thanks, iam feeling old now) continues.....

I highly doubt, that we will see quarians without masks. Like ever.

I wasn't never fond of that design for the quarians so I'd prefer the mask remain. Also for lore reasons.

They're all speciest bosh'tets these days...

"Oh sure, let's take her out for a date, she's so vulnerable!"

Then they forget it's less effective on men, and pretty much gets laughed at by Quarian Commandos.

I got to admit, I was not a fan of how human-like they made the Quarians look in ME3. Something more alien would be vastly preferable. But then I never romanced Tali, so it never really was an issue for me.

It would be nice to see what they looks like sans suit, but it would be unrealistic for them all to suddenly be maskless. If they can't cope with Milky Way native allergens, there is no way they can cope with all the new ones in Andromeda, esp since

They could use the same explanation they used for the Krogans to have a 4% increase in fertility: 600 years of genetic terapy.

Truth be told i will be really disapointed if they go the easy route with everyone using masks. That being said, not that i am expecting much after all they didn't even bother to make helmets for the Asari, although they did made some for the Salarians. So i could say i am mildly hopeful to see Quarians without helmets.

The "helmets all the time, even on their ships" thing for the quarians did get a bit absurd. Now we're stuck with keeping the absurd or lore-breaking.

Odd that there are no asari helmets. IIRC in ME1 Liara wore the same armour as humans, helmets included.

I actually don't mind how human the face of the quarians ended up being, and animation aside I like this face. Asari shouldn't hold the monopoly on hot aliens :hue:

If they show up here, they can't just be obscured behind a gas cloud inside purple visors still.

Whoever gave Tali that face did a great job. That keeps with what we know Quarians actually look like and it isn't a distant cry from her portrayal in the picture she gives Shepard. I have no idea whatsoever as to why Bioware bothered to reveal her face without the reveal being done via the character model.

I don't mind the animation, it's a bit odd but it sort of fits the Quarians being a cracked mirror reflection of humans in a more dramatic way than the Asari.

I honestly read Qunari and was utterly confused. I need more coffee this morning...

Anyway I want to see their faces, I believe! If Krogans can adept magically in Cryo, so can the Quarians for no apparent reason.

Ditching the suits is a bit much. Outside of its necessity, it's also pointed out to be an ingrained part of their culture. Just losing the opaqueness of their masks would be sufficient, I think.

I imagine it was safe to assume everyone was aware it's a mod. Otherwise, people would have long forgotten about that terrible photoshop (though that photoshop wouldn't exist if BioWare actually created a working face model for the quarians).
