I have to say it was a lot of fun having these debates, and I think we can come to an agreement, I can agree with the companions in ME2, I disagree on the ME dialogue though, it seems less about role playing whoever you want, and more about role playing a very specific soldier, which I applaud, it lets them explore into the variations one can be within that soldier as opposed to spreading themselves too thin.
I disagree on Tali's eyes, but that comes down to opinion.
