Mass Effect 2 - Tali Zorah vas Normandy - What does she look like?

[mace3579]

I like Tali in Mass Effect 2, but not seeing her face really bugged me. I'm pretty sure her face and the look of the Quarian race will be shown in Mass Effect 3. I've seen and read about what people think Tali looks like and this is the best one I found.

Do you guys think this is pretty accurate? possible? or have you seen a better one?

we have no idea what she looks like. Though that's a pretty damn good drawing if you ask me. Hands are all wrong though. Tali's only got 3 fingers.

I have two theories.

I hope they never show Tali's - or any Quarian's - face.

Ah, that gave me a good chuckle.

I hope they do... After all, it's very recent (kind of) they had to use suits so I don't see it as too immersion breaking to show what they look like.

Hahahahaha! I loved that, not what I expected at all! and yeah I dont see why they would want to, nobody would like it and all the fans would be pissed.

I always thought they would look like some ugly ass chicken thing with really gross lizard skin.

I seem to be in the minority but I care a lot more about her personality than I do her face. The whole relationship is symbolic of Shepard loving her for who she is rather than what she looks like. By not showing her face, the game drives this home by reminding the player why they fell in love with her.

I would have no problem if they ended up showing her face, but I can see why they didn't.
That's how I feel anyway.

Proberly see it at the end of ME3, if they manage to get back to their home planet.

Yours seems pretty plausible, even though I always kind of thought she might be some sort of (hot) fish lady. Sort of a mermaid race with no tail fin. And I always considered the possibility that she was just some primordial ooze in a suit. Her taking off her mask ruins that.

Bioware is giving Tali the Master Chief treatment. Not showing her face because they believe we the fans can come up with far better theories of her appearance. showing her face would also kill the mystery, which adds to her appeal. Personally though I'd rather see what Bioware can come up with for her appearance.

I second that! It would ruin the mystery that's a big part of their charm. Also, whatever Bioware might come up with, it will never be good enough for everyone.

Nice pic.

However, I think Tali's nose is a little bit bigger than shown. Otherwise, yeah, great representation.

 

[reg42]

I don't think so, because that's just people relating her accent to a human look alike.
Whatever she looks like, I hope she's at least kinda pretty.

 

[Amazigh]

I'm not really bothered whether they show her face or not, I just hope she'll be a squad member in ME3!

 

[mace3579]

What the hell man!? Now that's funny!

CAT GIRL!!!!

No, not really. As I said before, judging by the similarity in DNA and leg structure with Turians, I'd assume she has some reptilian characteristics.

Turians are avian, not reptilian

We know they're 'less squishy' than humans and asaris.

 

[Oneirius]

Well we know her face looks a bit like a human face, at least very superficially. I mean, you can kind of see a human looking nose and eyes...
As for the rest of the body, don't get your hopes up. She has only three fingers and I think those legs are built kind of like... I don't know, dog legs, perheps?
Whatever she is like, she'd probably be creepily pale, thaugh. Not much sunlight on the flotilla.

Edit: I alwayes thaught the turians were insectile.____."
I mean, they have exoskeletons!
