This reminds me, I think I just realized something really awful. How old is Tali by ME2 and ME3? Because in ME1 she is going through her puberty ritual (she even mentions Grunt’s rite as puberty/a pilgrimage in ME2). Seriously close to space pedophilia.
The Mass Effect wikia is something you really should wander through once in a while, it has most birthdays for the characters. Or hell, even check the
codexes (I have spent ages looking through the codexes in all 3 games simply so I know what the hell I'm saying/doing in fanfiction and the game). As it is, Tali was born in 2161. Shepard was born in 2154. 7 years difference (that would put Tali at being 22 at the start of the trilogy. Considering the lifespans, Tali is legal even in ME1). Garrus is a little bit older than Shepard, even if he does seem to be younger. We don't have a firm date of birth for him, tho.
Grunt himself is a special case being tank-bred. Being grown in a tank, cloned, etc., really throws off relative ages.
Anyone have this happen in a multiplayer game because everyone's too stupid about the turrets?
Gawd, yes. If I'm playing my soldier, I usually use adrenaline rush and just blast the thing. Usually seems to work pretty well.
Also, apparently there are some people out there who don't like Femshep simply because she's "too manly" and "not feminine enough". What part of Shepard is FIGHTING A WAR don't these people get?
I suppose that's because of the
default Shepard but she really doesn't look too manly. My Shepard on the other hand does. But, people will be people and bitch about FemShep until the cows come home even though she's entirely optional.
