Though the Mass Effect series is full of interesting characters, it’s widely accepted that Tali is the best of Shepard’s companions. She is also the best romance option hands down. I have played Mass Effect several times and I always romance her. Regardless of whether I’m renegade or paragon. I even installed a mod to romance her as femshep during one of my runs. I’ll fight anybody on this.
Could we not start this group/magazine off by pitting people against each other dependent on who their favourite companion is?
Let people like their own favourites, it doesn’t have to be a competition…
Frame it as “Tali’s my favourite, this is why”, and I’ll support you all the way, regardless of who my own favourite may be. But stating that it’s “widely accepted that Tali is the best”? No, sorry, it’s not. Everyone has their own favourite romances/squadmates.
(And for the record, I like Tali, she’s one of my favourites too. This isn’t an anti-Tali post. It’s a ‘please be welcoming, not antagonistic’ post.)
Agreed. Phrasing it as you suggested also invites further conversation.
Just a light hearted post. I think waifu wars are inevitable in mass effect communities, I’m just trying to mark the fire hydrant first.
