Mass Effect’s Tali hailed as best love interest in gaming

Gamers love to make sweeping statements, with the latest one being that Mass Effect’s Tali is the best love interest. Not just in the series, but of all time.

As a ME fan, I havea lotof thoughts on this. But before I geek out over ME and my beloved Garrus, let’s hear what other fans have to say.

Guess the ME character names with us as walk down memory lane.

Gamers swiftly flooded the post to offer their opinion on the matter, with a lot of fans quick to agree that their “sweet immuno-compromised alien gf” is second to no one. While a lot of players upheld the original poster’s view, others threw their favourite love interests in the ring. Unsurprising to absolutely no one, Garrus was mentioned.

As one wise fan said, “Weird way to spell Garrus.” Love for Garrus is well known, with some fans going so far as to restart the game to play as femshep once they learnt Garrus was a romance option. Being someone who’s played all the ME games more times than I care to admit, I’ve been in that very position.

What most upset me about this discussion, however, was that no one mentioned Fenris fromDragon AgeII. Arguably, he’s the greatest love interest of all time, filled with angst, tenderness, and vengeance. If it came down to him or Garrus, I wouldn’t be able to choose.

My personal preferences aside, it would seem that Tali really is the best love interest for the majority of gamers.

Just wait untilStarfieldcomes out on 6 September for all Xbox players and the results could change once again.
