Hi! I'm just passing by, don't mind me. I will just leave this here... OMG! The Ashley conversation in retrospective is PURE GOLD. It would have been so cool if Ashley could bring that out in ME3 like... "remember when you told me kissing turians won't be necessary? Just sayin'...." BTW, Carrinth has a pretty cool AU of human teenagers from ME:

Excellent comics everyone, keep them coming!!! I love this thread. I miss Garrus, so the fact that a remastered ME collection may be coming out is making me giddy.

I hope this time his face will be remastered in ME1 I think ME3 Garrus is best Garrus. Partially healed, mangled face. ME2 had too much bandage. ME1 not rugged enough.

I can't bring myself to romance Garrus. Him or Tali. The two of them just make such a cute couple that I just can't. I had to watch them on Youtube to see what happens in a Shep romance. I'm sappy, I know.

I don't know how I do it but with my Earthborns, Spacers, Colonists Sehpards... Sole Survivors, Heros or Ruthless... with previous relantionships with Kaidan or Liara or with nobody... nah, I ALWAYS end falling for Garrus. For me Shakarian is so canon that the rest of options are like interesting parallell universes

I almost romanced Thane once. I flirted way too much and I ran back to Garrus and hurried and flirted with him as a way of apology.

Hello Garrus fans ! I'm here because I have a question for you all: I was playing ME2 in english and trying to get my usual paragade ending of Garrus' loyalty mission but it just wouldn't proc, I would only get the renegade ending.
I switched back to french, did the exact same steps and got the scene. So my question is does that scene really not happen in the english version of the game ? Or did my game just bug out ? It is not the paragon conversation, though it ends the same way. Here is the scene recorded, there are subtitles on the vid.

I only played once in French, and I tend to save Garrus' soul Sidonis so I've never got this scene. However, I'm pretty sure this scene doesn't play this way in English, you don't have the option. That wouldn't be the first time. There are especific glitches depending on the language your game is, and scenes cut off in Spanish comparing English version. It's soooo great...

the best ME romance genuinely worried they won't be able to top it with the LIs in Andromeda. ^^^^YES, YES, YES. Garrus romance is my favourite, I can't help it. It's a good thing you can't romance him in the first game, so you have time to get familiar with him. In ME2 discovering he was the one we have to recruit it felt like coming back home... before home is almost obliterated with a rocket but it's ok, the rocket only blew up the bushes from the front doo . Your home is ok and makes jokes. Wait, maybe that sounds unsettling... my metaphors just went somewhere terrible But really, the jokes and the familiarity in ME2, then how the relationship grows in ME3... and that goodbye. All the goodbyes with Garrus on Earth, but especially with that broken voice of Hale saying the last farewell... However, I'm not worried because I've already assumed that: they cannot to top my Shepard&Garrus. I think the main reason is because we have three games to build that pairing (and any couple with the exception of Traynor and Cortez who didn't appear until that game). Only time and luckily a trilogy in Andromeda will build something comparable to that. In addition, we have the other advantage the original trilogy is finished, so playing is more like writing the book you have always wanted to read than expecting and wondering what happens in the end. So, only time (and good character writing) will tell if we find something as great in Andromeda. (sorry for my English right now, it's late, I'm tired but I NEED TO FANGIRL!!! )

This is the option I chose in my version of the game (English). I had a full Paragon playthrough for ME1 and I think I wasn't full Paragon yet in ME2 by the time I reached this mission... I also didn't romance Garrus. I'm not sure if any of those things factor in, but yeah, I had no issues getting that option. Not sure why it wouldn't show up...

I am happy I am not the only person who thinks the alien LI's in the game are great picks. I personally romanced Garrus as soon as I was able to; always loved the turians in general (which was part in why I romanced him, of course). I wouldn't mind either Wrex, Grunt, Thane, or *gasp* Legion as other LI's for my alternate Commander Shepards (though, I am loving Thane for his looks. Not his lungs). Garrus all the way, though.

Yeah, I definitely think a huge part of the reason why it's such a good romance, and why it feels like there's a strong, solid connection between Shepard and Garrus, is due not only in part to the three-game spanning storyline but also because you can't romance him in the first game. They start off truly as comrades and friends (and also a bit of mentor-mentee dynamic). The only comparable romance is Tali's (3 game span + non-romanceable in ME1), and while I love her and her romance also, I rank the Garrusmance above it as it just has that depth, more of an even-footing partnership, that kind of thing. they're proper partners, in all things.

I definitely agree with this. I hope that there are one or two in-depth, friends first, let's go through some crap together, respect each other, and then turn romantic relationships in Andromeda. Because despite what today's tv shoes and movies tell us, lust first usually doesn't last. Garrus and Shep would've lasted forever. He even tells her that there's nobody else he respects more than her when he's "considering her offer."

Like it was the kind of thing Turians would consider in a sexual encounter. The kind of thing a militaristic society with a meritocratic culture would consider attractive: someone who has earned your respect and which you consider an equal. I translate with those lens his story with the retcon-scout squadmate back in the military: they end having an encounter because they respect each others fight abilities. If Shepard was a Turian probably Garrus would have thought about that before she said anything.

I'm playing through ME3 and Leviathan atm, and I just got to the part where Garrus says his first romantic thing: "That’s what love does. Turns a guy like me into a nervous wreck with something to lose and the aim to make sure he doesn’t. Nobody better hurt you, is all I’m saying." I was stunned, actually. It made me realise that all this time, throughout the series, Shepard had been: - risking (and losing) her life to save people; - going out of her way to help people; - doing inhuman things (not excluding time-travelling and save editing ) for peace; - getting yelled at for being dead... etc... and this is the first time someone actually shows that they care about her. Not as their respected Commander Shepard, or hero and saviour of the galaxy, but as a person. I was really touched. And now I'm really looking forward to seeing more of this romantic Garrus (if indeed he does exist).
