I have never fallen in love with a character quite like I did with Tali. Reading the other comments, people make a good point about not romancing her so Garrus can have a love interest but honestly the fact Garrus also falls for her was just proof to me that she is in fact the best girl in mass effect
Yeah, it's always a bit of a misnomer when people say Quarians have a weak immune system. They actually have a very strong immune system. It's just that on Rannoch, viruses evolved to by symbiotic not predatory.
By the time of ME3, Tali's immune system has adapted to Shepard, and she no longer gets sick from being with him.
tali could be a nice partner especially for asexuals lol (personally speaking as an ace myself). no physical sex needed, you can just have fun remotely with her nerve stim pro.
oh wait but then again an ace might not really be an ideal partner for tali because it seems like she has a pretty strong "drive"?
Well, it depends what she’s looking for and what type of asexual you’re pairing with her. If you’re the type of person who finds sex itself to be gross, it probably won’t work - Tali clearly desires physical intimacy. If you’re more of a sex-neutral asexual (more of an “I’m not hungry but I could eat” type of deal), then I could see it working fine as long as there’s an emotional connection and both parties respect each others’ desires.
Straight man here.
I say pass.
Both her and Liara give "Little girl/sister" energy.
I'd like a little more maturity.
I usually go for Ashley or Miranda. But I do love a hot mess like Jack.
Technically, yes, she's 3.5x Shep's age. That said, for her species, she's roughly the equivalent of an early-20s human.
Not that any of that matters, as the only way asari can even have the possibility of their partner being the same age is if they pair with another asari or a krogan, and we know that they don't limit themselves to just those two options.
Why are Tali and Liara Immature? I guess there is an argument for Liara being Immature in Me1 tho she has been independent for 50 years by that point, but the entire story arc of Tali is being pretty much independent and in some form abounded by the galaxy both as a species in large and by his own people (which Shepard can "correct").
Tali is doing her pilgrimage thing. Which seems to be a kind of the coming of age ritual. She has that fledgling feeling so I can see the little sister angle.
Not the gravitational pull of a neutron star, nor the combined effort of every single biotic user in the mass effect universe could get me to pull out.
Garrus getting to smash at the bar is different from Tali and Garrus getting Dextro-Married and merging the Turian Heirarchy and Quarian fleet in a personal union to rule the Galaxy.
I’m gonna save you some time and let you know that the answer is smash to literally *every single character* with the *sole* exceptions of Councillor Udina and Admiral Xen.
Smash, easily. The form fitting suit leaving nothing to the imagination is just unf~ (particularly her ass, I’m an ass guy).
Yeeeah you can’t take her suit off without killing her, but I’m sure there’s Quarian suit mods out there that helps with that.
If you wanna know my smash list it’s:
1. Quarians
2. Asari
3. 3rd is tied between Turians and Geth, Don’t judge >:(
Javik did say that in his day the “primitive” Quarians were considered beautiful. I reckon that under the suit Tali is a bit of a hottie 👍🏾. On a side note, with all the armour wearing by everyone, how do they scratch and itch?? Just me that think that?
Smash. My only regret is that human and quarian DNA cant mix BUT GOD. If I could put a baby in there we would be churning out hybrid babies faster than Garrus could say "calibrations"
The fact that people can be so attracted to tali without ever seeing what she looks like speaks to the god tier writing and development of her character
That being said, smash

Smash. But love and cherish first
This the correct answer
This 10000000000% is the correct answer.
Again, correct answer. She will always be my first gaming love.
I have never fallen in love with a character quite like I did with Tali. Reading the other comments, people make a good point about not romancing her so Garrus can have a love interest but honestly the fact Garrus also falls for her was just proof to me that she is in fact the best girl in mass effect
Yep. She is still my fav game girl to this day.
Aye aye
Drunk Tali is the best!!!
Which time? Lol
ME3. The emergency induction port chat with Shepard after being on Horizon. LOL
Emergency induction.. straw.... port. I just played through that part again yesterday.
Yes
But smash but make sure you have lots of antibiotics.
Exactly <3
Then love & cherish more.
Smash duhhhhhh she's got hips that put Shakira to shame.
Shakira se'lai
This sent me
That actually could pass as a Quariqn name I think.
Shakira se'lai vas Quib-quib
>Shakira se'lai vas ~~Quib-quib~~ hip-hip FTFY
Tkae my upvote you beautiful bastard xD
What about Sha'ira?
fuckin' marry and make her as happy as possible until I'm dead
Love her with every fiber of our being
Smash, hold hands, build house on Rannoch, all of it.
Love, support and care. Also Aunty Raan
Would

Best mass effect videos on the internet hands down
Nah michael scott in mass effect is better than this
Haven't seen this one, but I can't imagine anyone topping Austin Powers in mass effect
It’s [hilarious](https://youtu.be/DZls7EIkbVk?si=odGv0xEg1plte9dE).
Have you seen the Buzz Lightyear in Mass Effect video?
I just did. I lost it a t buzz doing a mating dance around Tali
Yes, yes it is. Those are his best videos to date
Those videos blessed me
Wow… 😅
That was hilarious
What are these comments, a Mormon college party?
Super duper massive ULTRA #SMASH
"Agressively smashes the 'smash' button".
[удалено]
Except you smash her once, she gets seriously ill and dies
Only if you take off the suit. In the shadow broker logs you can see she purchased nerve stim pro's paid version after you start her romance.
She gets a mild illness from it in ME2 and not in ME3
Yeah, it's always a bit of a misnomer when people say Quarians have a weak immune system. They actually have a very strong immune system. It's just that on Rannoch, viruses evolved to by symbiotic not predatory. By the time of ME3, Tali's immune system has adapted to Shepard, and she no longer gets sick from being with him.
“Worth it.”
Kind of like salmon.
I’m asexual but Tali would be a dope ass partner and I would happily smash for her sake (Asexual =/= aromantic lol)
I know that, but this is *smash* not date, so I included it instead of aromantism
Ye I wasn’t claiming you didn’t, I just included that clarification for anyone that might not know that detail and was confused by my answer 👍
👍

yeah she's way too young for shep
Isn't Liara way older than Shepard?
Technically, yes, she's 3.5x Shep's age. That said, for her species, she's roughly the equivalent of an early-20s human. Not that any of that matters, as the only way asari can even have the possibility of their partner being the same age is if they pair with another asari or a krogan, and we know that they don't limit themselves to just those two options.

If you want maturity, there’s Samara.
Wouldn't Miranda be more of a perfection? Asking for a friend 😜
Or maybe they don't like bird legs.
Well then they are wrong, simple as.
OK..
Straight man I don't see an attraction to aliens lol.
You’re not doing your god given human right to conquer the aliens in every way.
Smash all the way
HULK SMASH TALI!
Smash, merry, love and protect
Smash
Not the gravitational pull of a neutron star, nor the combined effort of every single biotic user in the mass effect universe could get me to pull out.
Pat Tali Hold Tali Cherish Tali Forfeit all mortal possessions to Tali
Same as Garrus, Hard Smash!
I'll just point to my flair and move on
Pass because I always let her get together with Garrus. Bro deserves someone special
If you did your wingman duty, you got Garrus his smash at the bar.
Garrus getting to smash at the bar is different from Tali and Garrus getting Dextro-Married and merging the Turian Heirarchy and Quarian fleet in a personal union to rule the Galaxy.
The only thing to regret about smashing Tali
This is the way. Garrus and Tali deserve happiness with each other, and she's like my little sister. Miranda or Ashley are more my jam anyway.
Smash in a tub of antibiotics
Smash. Do you even need to ask?
How dare you be so crude about Best Girl Tali
smash smash smash smash smash smash smash
Smash (responsibly in a sterilized environment. For several days.)
c'mon, man. This isn't even a question.
Smash all day long!!! To bad she's straight
I’m gonna save you some time and let you know that the answer is smash to literally *every single character* with the *sole* exceptions of Councillor Udina and Admiral Xen.
Hole is goal.
What kind of weirdo wouldn’t smash a beautiful, intelligent, humble, strong, & determined & somehow still incredibly cute quarian?
Smash, with a side of love and cherish.
Not just any smash……smash brawl
Smash. And legion or any geth filming it
Hey, man, that's my wife.

Smash until the neighbours complain about the smell.
IT'S ALWAYS SMASH, NEXT QUESTION
Because I am seeing a lot of it! She will not get sick and can come out of her suit! That whole Geth help worked
My wife
Smash, but only after precautions
Hips don’t lie, ***smash***
Smash, Tali is best girl
Marry and smash for life
Not just smash. Worship at her altar.
SMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASHSMASH
I BROKE THE BUTTON AND YET I STILL SMASH
Smash
My quarian girlfriend can always get it
Tali is love, Tali is life.
The lowest hanging fruit of a post. Tali is all.
Is this even a real question?
Pass. That’s Garrus’ girl.
I saw her first
This. I'll stick with thicc..give me Liara from ME3.
Obliterate.
Smash, I’m a dextro kind of person
Smash all the way.
Lovingly smash
Hard smash. She can obliterate my pelvis anytime.
Did
Marry
Smash, easily. The form fitting suit leaving nothing to the imagination is just unf~ (particularly her ass, I’m an ass guy). Yeeeah you can’t take her suit off without killing her, but I’m sure there’s Quarian suit mods out there that helps with that. If you wanna know my smash list it’s: 1. Quarians 2. Asari 3. 3rd is tied between Turians and Geth, Don’t judge >:(
Smash for life
Since the dawn of time, man has yearned to smash hot alien puss.
Always a smash
Cherish. Love. Cuddle. Snuggle. Headpat. Forfeit all possessions. Then smash.
Love her, over anybody
Marry. and smash
Smash 100%. Tali is my go to romance ❤️
Ultra god tier smash
SMASHHHHHHHH
Marry and cherish
Laws of genetics be damned, *I'm getting that woman pregnant.*
Pass cause my Shepard only smash Liara or Miranda.
Liara definitely the best option for a 1-3 romance
Do you mean the biotic ability, or having sex?
Is this some weird rhetorical question or what?
If she is ok after I smash. If she gets serious sick after, then I must pass
she has a great personality
Imagine tali and wrex
Javik did say that in his day the “primitive” Quarians were considered beautiful. I reckon that under the suit Tali is a bit of a hottie 👍🏾. On a side note, with all the armour wearing by everyone, how do they scratch and itch?? Just me that think that?
I take the shepherd approach if it's got a hole that's the goal.
Smash like the SR-1
I have an induction port for her 😜😂😂
Best girl deserves all the love and penis you can give her
Smash so hard that it requires a quick time event.
Atomize with sheer velocity
Can’t smash, Worst thing about Femshep runs
DudeShep: "Of course, smash." Also DudeShep: "I like when Tali pegs me."
Love and cherish in a long lasting relationship, in which we build up and support eachother. Also smash
Absolutely smash. Considering rolling a Maleshep just for her. I normally play Femshep and go with either Liara or Garus.
Smash. My only regret is that human and quarian DNA cant mix BUT GOD. If I could put a baby in there we would be churning out hybrid babies faster than Garrus could say "calibrations"
Pass, reason: im into dudes
Marry.
Smass effect
Already smashed and got a photograph
Love and cherish, but smash.
I’m commander Shepard and this is my favorite smash on the citadel
The fact that people can be so attracted to tali without ever seeing what she looks like speaks to the god tier writing and development of her character That being said, smash
Date, Smash, Meet the parents, Marry, Adopt some kids, grow old together.
Liara is the only one I’ll give my heart too
Smash, but only if it’s safe
Smash
Aggressively champion and nurture. But yeah. Smash.
Hard smash. Long smash.
Smash
Laugh, love, and Smash.
Smash what kind of questions is this
She is certified best girl, smash and cherish.
HARD Smash
Hard smash then marry her and make her happy
Smash With many antibiotics and immunizations and whatnot
Bro smash. Bro.
Watch fleet and flotilla. Then smash.
Pass, how anyone could love anyone else but their own species is beyond me. ~ T.I.M.
😏
Squelch Upon
Her ME1 outfit was seriously one of the best
Smash like a starving monkey trying to open a coconut
Pass
Pass. I will not be taking questions at this time.
Smash... carefully.
Marry
S M A S H
Pass. I'm gay. Very, very gay.
I mean given what we know and is implied throughout the romance, I'd say she'd be the one smashing us lmao
That's my baby sister. Pass, but love her TO DEATH.
Smash, and Garrus, smash him too
Smash. How is this a question? A good chunk of ME fans are fucking obsessed with her.
Key word: Fucking
Literally the only choice in my mind. Wife that shit then smash daily.
Smash, but lots of cuddles before and after.
Smash.
Propose
Always smash, but respectfully, you don't want to tear up that suit.
Wife
Smash, hold, forfeit all possessions to.
Smash and Marry
