Bioware obviously didn't expect Garrus to be so popular. All they did to Garrus was like "Hey blue face paint looks great, yeah, blue armor as well, yeah whatever let's put more blue on him"
Garrus is MORE loyal than Tail. Tail be like "Migrant Fleet," while Garrus is like "I'm fit for duty Shepard." Tail is all about duty in Mass Effect 2 when you meet her on Freedom's progress and doesn't join your team until later, while with Garrus he immediately joins your team after recovering. He's there for you every step of the way! Plus I find that Garrus's romance is better than Tali's. Still, Tali is one of my top five favorite characters in Mass Effect.
Aiste Duseviciute people get worked up over her face because bioware didn't make a 3d model, or a fully original image for tali's face, and instead gave the players a cheap photoshopped version of this: www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/photo/hammasa-royalty-free-image/123488108
Tbf on the team they were being rushed and had to take out some content and modify the story a bit so they could meet deadlines, so they probably did have a lot of ideas of Tali's face prior to actually making it and were eventually forced to just copy a face, modify slightly and just slap it in the game. So what I'm saying is, blame EA
I love how when he was talking about how they gave Garrus a "Hollywood" scar he said "The female fans would be mad. . ." THEY KNOW ABOUT THE GARRUS THIRST GUYS!
@@thrax1831 my point was that you said EA doesn't develop games and I corrected you by saying they develop sports games. And those games far out sell anything else they release. They aren't very good at judging story but they certainly know how to make a successful video game.
it's also shown by sustaining rocket propelled grenade fire in spite of a direct hit. Unless it's insane difficulty, in that case you are going to die, because someone farted on you.
"We didn't want to just blow his face off. Female fans might be angry..." I'm pretty sure mutilating Garrus would have pissed off a lot of people, and not all of them women. Garrus may have a huge female fanbase, but we men also connect to Garrus as a cool guy we'd love to hang out with.
+Tourettesguyfan102 Yeah Garrus is a real bro. Possible final hours of the universe? Screw it, lets go skeet shooting in a place we definitely aren't allowed
Zeba F you gotta give that to liara, male and female shepards were really disapointed when she wasnt a squadmate in me2 and you gotta buy the dlc to finish her story. In me3 they brought her back because everyone loved her. I could see garrus though
I quite like the turian design. Funny thing was when I was discussing a female turian character for a game with my boyfriend, saying that I didn't think she'd have boobs, he yelled "BIRDS DON'T HAVE BOOBS!"
So the first thing they did when designing the turians is draw what they would look like naked. And then we NEVER got to see a naked turian in any of the games. Wow.
Also, I think female aliens are just hard to distinguish between male aliens WITHOUT having them look sexy. From a purely appearance perspective, most people can tell if someone is a female based on breasts and eyes. But these are very HUMAN-oid details. It's unlikely that a lot of alien races would even have breasts or vaginas. There's the Asari that are very much like humans and the Krogans where you can't even distinguish between woman and man.
Gotta love how they half-assed him And he is still one of my favourite gaming companions ever. And believe me, I am picky, especially when it comes to personalities.
This. Every time I look at him I think to myself..."If you have blue blood, why are you're scars all fleshy red?" I thought maybe it was like Shepard when he/she woke up. Maybe the cybernetics they used to reconstruct his face with are showing through? Either that or it's just a stupidly glaring oversight.
Maybe it has something to do with the skin? I mean, for me it’s just like our blood is red, but our veins are grey and our bruises are purple. Of course, I’m not an expert... and I’m a little too late to comment :U
Game designer 1: “what does every person , no matter the age, absolutely love?” Game designer 2: “Dinosaurs, Batman, Die Hard 1 & 2”. Game designer 1: “............perfect!”
This is very interesting. I always kinda gave Bioware a lot of crap for how all their "aliens" look so similar to humans (which is so unlikely as to be a completely silly concept). I give them a lot more credit now that I've heard that they were limited by system/design constraints.
"we've been doing concepts on what they look underneath" *1 year later* "OH SHIT GUYS ME3 IS DUE IN 2 WEEKS AND WE NEED A TALI" ...."off to google images?"
I always see the Turians as talking Dinosaurs. Maybe if the dinosaurs never became extinct and continued evolving, then they might have evolved into something similar to Turians.
Dark Jedi well of course birds are dinosaurs you mean non avian dinosaurs but you see what reason do dinosaurs have to evolve to stand lile humans and what reason to evolve intellence?
ME1: Best Plot (Fewest plot holes, some Shamalan-worthy twists, etc.) ME2: Best Story (Best characters, epic scope, awesome choice impact, etc.) Me3: Best Gameplay (Dear GOD, I love the Multiplayer.)
It's very interesting listening to this guy talk from a designer's perspective instead of a fan's perspective. It kinda shows how fans can sometimes complain without fully understanding the context of how games are made. Other comments on this video illustrate my point.
If turians are anything like birds or avian dinosaurs, they probably do not have phalluses, instead both sexes having a near-identical cloaca. Saurians in general are hard to differentiate between males and females. They are not mammals, so they have no reason to have physiological differences.
I always imagined that there was barely any noticeable difference between male and female Turians (Least by human perception) In some deleted conversation you find a Turian who can only tell the difference in humans by the "funny chest bumps" I was personally hoping that the team would have a conversation with a Turian NPC and as they left they'd say "He was nice/annoying" and if garrus was around he'd say "Err ...That was a she." Or garrus thinking a long haired man was a girl or something.
Garrus is so beast and pro! My fav character and he seemed like a true friend when I was playing ME1, ME2 and ME3. I wish I knew someone that had his personality
having recently played through all three back to back, I have to disagree. I feel that 3 has the best gameplay of the series. Movement is much more fluid and having power cooldowns potentially around 1 second keeps things moving quickly and getting in and out of cover is quick and easy. ME2 feels much stiffer by comparison.
"You know Nihlus. I don’t know if anyone remembers him." As part of the we should have been able to save Nihlus gang, I certainly do. Should have been an option in new game plus, because I am so fast by then that it's impossible not to reach him almost immediately and having him be wheelchair bound after a coma would have been cool.
+Blaze28339 Perhaps they should have a female turian squad member in Mass Effect Andromeda who is only romanceable to Male Pathfinders (player characters). That would be interesting to say the least.
+SinDawg030 I think that's a great idea. Turians are my favourite ME race, so having a female turian romance for my character would be perfect. Someone like Nyreen would be interesting.
+Blaze28339 Well look at it from a designers perspective. You have to effectively create a new face model(that's a bird looking alien to boot) that's both similar enough to be classified in the same species yet different enough to stand out as being the opposite gender. His whole "put lipstick on her" was a pretty stupid comment though. Nyreen had a great design, I just wished they'd thought of it sooner.
+Blaze28339 To be fair, the Turians are a militaristic race. Military is stereotypically a place for males. You wouldn't find that many women in the military since the Turian culture is probably male-oriented. You could see female Turians on the citadel as civilians though and sometimes as military personnel, but I don't know what they were thinking, they probably just lacked the creativity at the time to figure out how a female Turian would look, probably more pressing matters were happening.
As someone who played Mass Effect 3 years after it came out I never understood the hate. Hearing this guy's comments about Tali at the end I can sympathize at least with the Tali face reveal. If they had some concepts, where did they go? I still think all the hate about the ending is a little overrated. It is definitely not a perfect ending, but its not bad. Maybe a little rough considering everything else in the game and trilogy is amazing.
Here's the scenario: You have a character with a hidden face that you're thinking of revealing after 5 years of anticipation. Do you? If you don't, everyone that wanted a reveal will be disappointed. If you do, no face you could come up with could match 5 years of hype, and inevitably a portion of the fanbase will be disappointed, whether because they wanted it to stay a mystery, or because they just imagined that character looking different than the final product. Oh, and also creating the face will stall development in other areas so you need to make the decision before you start. Oh, and you only have a few months to decide and finish. Every day you don't choose hurts the final product. Now, that stock photo is a disaster, I'm not trying to excuse it, but pretending this guy is a liar because of a bad decision is a logical step too far.
well, it looks like they eventually figured it out by the time of mass effect 3. There are female turians hanging out at the silversun strip. And by Mass Effect Andromeda there's a lot of ladies for both the Turians and the Krogan when they didn't used to be shown.
Derek Watts sure loves using the word "iconic". If you get the Art of Mass Effect Universe art book, he uses it a lot there, too. It's like his catchphrase.
Specific to what I'm talking about? you see one or two in the assignment N7: Javelin Missiles Launched. You know the one where you have to choose between a colonies residential and spaceport areas? You see one in the opening scene and I think a couple others that you fight.
had a few chuckles throughout the video, a cool guy, but here's a pro tip for you: look up "female turian" on google and you get some really nice fan concepts
@mujuma Yeah, the readiness is, by default, at 50%, which means your assets are cut in half. Playing multiplayer raises that percentage, and consequently, your EMS.
@mujuma I know for a fact that it's impossible to get over 4000 EMS without multiplayer. I'm not talking about your "total assets", but what the amount is after it is cut in half by the readiness percentage.
@cheesyflames Effective Military Strength, right? mine was a few hundred off my total... I'm sorry man, I'm confused, I didn't understand the multiplayer portion of it. I got my Readiness too 100% and that's all, not sure if it effected anything.
THEflobalob Actually, I think it's red because of the cybernetics underneath. Shep's scars were red too, after reconstruction. So perhaps all cybernetics are red? No colour choice available for the other races.
I remember there being a bit of complaints about the Asari basically sharing head shape and just colour differences, but they pretty much did the same with Turians and no one batted an eye, limitations of development budget, I do like how they added more variety gradually throughout the games and we did eventually get to see female Turians.
@cheesyflames I had 6,000 to 7,000 war assets, thats what we're talking about right? I'm on my 3rd playthrough and I've got over 4,000 at the moment, I'm retaking Rannoch at the moment.
As a female fan I would like to say... I couldn't care less for his scarring no matter how bad you guys would've made it xD Garrus is the best bro ever, he''s been with me since the first game!
That was a PC port bug. Dunno if they ever fixed it. I used texmod, with Garrus's facial texture from Mass Effect 2 before he got shot, which directly inserts the texture into the game. Made Garrus the sexy beast he deserves to be.
I like that the females don't need to be vastly different or 'easy to tell' like, they are aliens they don't need to conform exactly to general human expectations. Some likeness is bound to happen-you can't stop being human and that will affect how the created character turns out but..yeah. On a point related to the video-I like Garrus
I guess you could say that making Garrus took a lot of...
Calibrations.
Badum tssh
YEAAAAAAAAAA
Fem shep: notice me damn it!
Garrus: calibrations
Haaaa, indeed
Seriously lol I only ever used Garrus and another character for every mission 😂
Bioware obviously didn't expect Garrus to be so popular.
All they did to Garrus was like "Hey blue face paint looks great, yeah, blue armor as well, yeah whatever let's put more blue on him"
"Tali's more popular than Garrus".
How dare he speaketh such lies about the best bro in the galaxy.
Yeah I cant believe it, even still
He's not wrong though
didnt expect PDs comment to be here
Keelah... Guy's calm down please
Garrus is MORE loyal than Tail. Tail be like "Migrant Fleet," while Garrus is like "I'm fit for duty Shepard."

"What do we do with Tali's face? ... we've done some concepts"
Yes...I'm sure you did. I'm *sure* you did...
I thank humanity for textmod every time I wake up
It's actually "texmod", but alright.
I'm pretty new in ME fanbase, so what exactly is wrong with Tali's face? That it's blocked by her visor?

"Mind you, most of those women are krogan."

That's turians for you.

Thane had Garrus running for his money.
So the first thing they did when designing the turians is draw what they would look like naked. And then we NEVER got to see a naked turian in any of the games. Wow.
Right? Hahaha
So dissatisfied
The game doesn't have nudity though
@@DiggitySlice look at the romance cutscenes in andromeda
That’s how you draw, though. You create the body first so you can figure out how their clothing will fit and drape and such.

when ever i see Garrus i think velociraptor
Garrus needs Chris Pratt
+MrTwhispers make it happen
Velociraptors had feathers.
I don't understand why Garrus' scar is red when Yurian's blood is blue...

Some saurians became modern avians, but most saurian branches just died off. Avians are only a small part of the wider saurian genus.

I've never heard such a claim before.

"The ending? I'll tell you the ending!" IF ONLY WE KNEW T_T
I enjoy having filters sometimes. I just don't want to see a picture of the Turian "calibrating" his phalic muscle.

+CDR. Javik The penis is actually not a muscle. Otherwise there would be a tons of people lifting stuff with it.

Same here. Multiple play-throughs of the trilogy and I took Garrus on every single mission with me. He's the best!

Everyone's flesh is red...ish his/her skin is white
the reason for that is they use motion capture (from actors) to animate the movement of characters.
I remember there being a bit of complaints about the Asari basically sharing head shape and just colour differences, but they pretty much did the same with Turians and no one batted an eye, limitations of development budget, I do like how they added more variety gradually throughout the games and we did eventually get to see female Turians.
Amen...I'll take any and all I can get about Garrus :D
@cheesyflames I had 6,000 to 7,000 war assets, thats what we're talking about right?
I'm on my 3rd playthrough and I've got over 4,000 at the moment, I'm retaking Rannoch at the moment.
Supposedly you don't need more than 4k if you choose a certain choice towards the end? You can still get the "good ending" then.
His voice is so...smooth...
As a female fan I would like to say... I couldn't care less for his scarring no matter how bad you guys would've made it xD Garrus is the best bro ever, he''s been with me since the first game!
really interesting, garrus is my favourite character xD
was that a special promotion, or something? because my collectors ed. preorder doesn't have that.
That was a PC port bug. Dunno if they ever fixed it. I used texmod, with Garrus's facial texture from Mass Effect 2 before he got shot, which directly inserts the texture into the game.
Made Garrus the sexy beast he deserves to be.
I appreciate the video but can this wait? I'm in the middle of some calibrations
Check out my Mass Effect piano medley, featuring songs from Mass Effect 1 and 2! You'll love it! :)
what program is used to make the design
Garrus and Thane with the incisor on insanity in ME2
i'll never understand them saying the turians are 'birdlike', especially when the faces are so feline
Has anyone noticed how much the Citadel music has a similar tone to the music in Total Recall?
Garrus is by far the best war buddy Shepard ever had !!
best character in mass effect hands down !
I like that the females don't need to be vastly different or 'easy to tell' like, they are aliens they don't need to conform exactly to general human expectations. Some likeness is bound to happen-you can't stop being human and that will affect how the created character turns out but..yeah. On a point related to the video-I like Garrus
Dream job!
