The best thing about Garrus romance is gushing about it to your friends and insisting they would ALSO find the alien dinosaur bird man hot if they played the game.
to be fair the voice helps
This just shows how looks not really matter that much with men. Voice and mostly character is what counts. Looks only helps you with opening door.
@@Altmer353 it also helps if you're immensely accurate with a crap load of weapons systems....Garrus is the ultimate awkward guy, but he's confident with a rifle in his hands and with Commander Shepard in his hands.
Is this bad that I'm a guy playing FemShep and crying at the "Good-bye" scene?
LOL same 😂 And my friends look at me like I’ve finally lost my mind.
Garrus's level of confidence when he romances FemShep is crazy different! Non-romance he's like clueless, but here he's almost a different Turian entirely! lol
I hate that Jack's comment on the Garrus romance is missed here! 😂 "Bite me Garrus! Or better yet, bite her, probably how she likes it" and doesn't even miss a beat lmao
When I did my Femshep playthrough of ME3 I heard that for the first time and I was dying. I had watched a video on Jack's comments on your squad members at one point and that line wasn't in it so I was taken completely off guard and simply flabbergasted.
Well if bang Femshep dont boost your confidence, i dont know what else will
garrus is my canon romance. i romance him EVERY playthrough and he still has me blushing and literally getting up to pace the room. i love him so much, perfect amount of fluff, angst, and smut-ish lol. plus i love that jennifer hale loves this romance sm.
i've done other romances but it does hurts not doing garrus bc tbh he is my favorite bioware romance
i just have to get it through my head that my shepards are different and i don't want him hooking up with another shepard even if it's tempting but that's the only way i can do it rip
i've played my main shepard too many times though because of this so i can romance him all over again
Bestie... You should do yourself a favor and read "first contact" the fan comic. Even tho it's 18+ I honestly could not stop fangirling.. they're so cute.
Update: Son of Palavan Daughter of Earth is literally the best fanfiction I've ever read too.
@@moondoggies7492thx for the ff
I kinda love how not being able to romance Garrus in ME1 kinda works. In ME1, they have more of a mentor/mentee dynamic and he's still got some growing/learning to do. Come ME2, they've both been through hell and the last 2 years has made them be on much more of an equal level. That said, I will forever believe that ME1 Garrus had a huge crush on Shepard but was completely oblivious to it until Shep in ME2 is like "Let's skip right to the tie breaker"... him being down for that is what clues him in.
Garrus: "I don't think I've ever met someone like you, Commander."
I basically think that he just never thought Shepard would be interested in him. It's clear in the way he talks about it in the ME2.
Garrus changes quite a lot between ME1 and ME2. He goes from being awkward, stilted and serious to smooth, confident and full of smart-assed quips. Two years on Space Detroit did him a lot of good...
Lol, "Space Detroit" is the most accurate yet hilarious name for Omega I've heard yet@@rdrrr
Fun fact: the developers never actually considered making Garrus a romance option at first. The only reason they made him one in 2, is because they saw all the fan art. (There was a lot, apparently.) Then, they made Tali one as well, for the broshep.
Something else, if you don't already know, the actor playing Garrus was in an episode of Castle. It's clipped on CZcams, he even drops into the Garrus voice a couple of times, but he's a little unhinged.
Ugh that final talk before the end. Hearing Jennifer Hale's voice breaking...it never not hits me in the feels
Jennifer Hale cried when she recorded that line.
it's the only scene jen hale actually cried at
which only further makes me say he's the best LI
@@phantommangagirl That's because she also loved Garrus.
@@willfanofmanyii3751 Everybody loves Garrus! He's a true friend!
Plot twist: Vega gave Garrus dancing lessons and wanted to see the results.
I confess, I was a little curious when I saw that Garrus was romanceable the first time I played ME because in my late teens I couldn't picture myself feeling attracted to someone with nothing physically close to humans (except for having eyeballs). But I went in with an open mind. In first game I was just chuckling at his interactions, especially when you bring him along inside the Mako on expeditions (Shepard is allegedly an atrocious driver). He showed himself thoughtful, loyal and funny, with just the right amount of sarcasm. Absolutely best bud right there. But then ME2 hit and there's the Archangel reveal, and that's when my mind went both "Missed you so" and "Oh no, he's hot" hahaha.
He actually develops into a genuine smooth talker in the Citadel DLC. Now THAT'S character development!
Femshep teaches him how to sweet talk a lady, and he teaches her how to dance. Fuck i love those two.
It's so funny that the devs didn't understand why people wanted Garrus and went to the lengths to create a sexy dilf to appeal to the female audience... And almost all the women still wanted the pointy cat dinosaur man anyway 🤣
It's funny how the dilf was made by women too and failed.
Out of curiosity who is this supposed Dilf?
Because if its Jacob and his ever so lauded muscles im gonna be insulted.
@@anthonyrodriguez8788 I'm guessing it's Thane, he is a dad after all.
@@user-fd5nz5lo7m I considered Thane but from what I can tell he actually was popular with women players.
I guess it has to be Thane because I don't consider Jacob hot and his child isn't even born yet.
when this first came out, I was *bouncing around* at the Shakarian Tango. they gave my favorite romance in the game a *fucking TANGO*. Over the moon.
I think Garrus/Tali are the most "canon" feeling relationships to me, the devs clearly put a ton of effort into them and they fit for both male and female shepherd regardless of your paragon/renegade leanings.
Yeah yeah everyone feels like their favorite romance is canon 😆lol
@@Kornelius707 Agreed... but you can't deny the devs put more effort on them. I mean, do the other romances have something similar to the Sing Along or a Tango Scenes? I really can't think of one as iconic.
Or maybe is just a case the writting being just better for those, since each character gets a different writter. Maybe thats why they're so popular.
@@greasey8695 Eh, Shepard does most of the work in that relationship.
@@greasey8695 I never really agreed with that. She like to spy on her friends and Shepard(regardless if romance or not)using her Shadow Broker position and is very possessive on a relationship. A creator's pet won't have this really big flaws for me.
I personally prefer Talibrations!
The person who recorded this missed some scenes. Plus, you can talk to Mordin before the main romance scene and he'll comment about the romance.
Also, after the suicide mission, talk to your romantic interested, then you can invite them up to your cabin and hang out with them.
Edit: after watching more of this video I realized they missed some other fun/cute romance commentary.
Garrus’s romance is what set me on my Mass Effect journey many years ago. He and Kaidan and Jaal are my ultimate video game husbands ❤️❤️❤️❤️
taste
Same!
I just finished the series a few days ago for the first time, and it´s the same with Tali for me. She absolutely carried that romance. Still havent recovered from the ending dialogues 😥
I am shocked that this video did not include all the scenes with Shepard and Garrus. There were some funny ones with Jack, Zaeed and Javik that were missing. Also, Mordin's advice.
Oh yeah, Mordin's advice should 100% be here. It is one of the best lines in all three games. I love it.
Mordin trying to help with the Tali romance was also one of the best lines.
I love how big a dork Garrus is romantically. I'm also a big dork in romance, and I need to be close enough to someone to be that dork. All of my good IRL romances started as friendships.
The paragon version of the shooting challenge is way better. "I'm Garrus Vakarian, and this is now my favorite spot on the Citadel!"
Garrus + femshep = match made in heaven 😍❤️
Especially if they are both renegade snipers
@@Arcavianyesss
Shepard survives the destroy ending. It is the only ending
Garrus: * mentions baby *
Meg: * blacks out *
Wish they'd included the scene where Mordin gives you advice on your relationship with Garrus XD you should definitely check it out!
My ultimate gaming romance 🥰 Garrus is my game hubby 😍 second is Jaal 🥰 Thane is one of my favourites too, I've been waiting patiently for your reaction 😉😆 Hello Meg 👋😊 I'm a new subscriber and I LOVE your content, I'm so happy to see more fellow Lady gamers 🎮🥰🤗
Same here, I love Garrus and Jaal, and Thane is my second favorite after them!
"I'm crying horny tears." made me laugh, SO HARD.
IMO Garrus is the best in everything. Best Lover or best spacebro according to your preference
Garrus is always the best wingman
The reach and flexibility line has got go be my fave of all time,theres a Vid were the scene is edited with music and sound effects and it's the funniest thing ever 😂
32:48: "I'm Commander Shepard, and I have the most supportive waist on the Citadel." 😆
Based on the reaction, I think someone has found her excuse to do another run of the ME Trilogy.....you know, to test their reach and flexibility!
.....I should go.....
Garrus: Shepard, your legs are calibrations, cause im gonna be in the middle of them
When I first played my first ever run [December 16th, 2022] (Infiltrator, War Hero) I went with the Ashley Romance & Stayed Loyal (My least favorite fr) but now after 3 Runs (on my FOurth) Just saw the Cabin scene with garrus! AGH! How did I not go with this before!!!. I can't wait to do ME3 with the Citadel DLC!
There is no Shepard without Vakarian
No one:
Meg: "Why did I choose Thane?"
Comment Section: "We asked the same thing."
I might be straight but as my grandpa always said, you can always be gay for Garrus :)
When I'm playing FemShep romancing Garrus, which is my favorite romance in the game, I feel like I'm Garrus romancing Shepard. :D I have so much of his awkwardness in me. He's just completely relatable.
I’m a women and I’m gay for glados. Also tali is cute.
Kaiden: "Can you... feel it... Shepard..."
Meg: "wtf..."
To explain the ending:
The military strength you build up through the game determines how protected the Crucible is. The more damage it takes from the Reapers, the less options you are given. If the Crucible is protected, the Destroy blast will only target Reaper Tech Synthetics. If it's damaged, the blast will rebound, targeting other Synthetics, including Shepard's implants, and even Earth in the worst case.
Shepard limped away and returned to the rubble of London.
There is no strength level where the destroy option only targets Reapers, what does happen is that if you have 7800 or above as strength then Shepard survives and your partner refuses to put of your name on the memorial wall on the Normandy. It will always destroy all synthetics including the relays regardless of strength.
@@Henrik_Holst Except it does, the strength level determines whether it will only target the Reapers, or literally destroy everything else...
@@willfanofmanyii3751 No there is no difference built into the game, there is a single "destroy" movie in the game resources.
@@Henrik_Holst Except there is, lol.
-Earth/relays/the galaxy and Normandy destroyed.
-Earth/relays/the galaxy and Normandy damaged.
-Earth/relays damaged, the galaxy and Normandy spared.
-Earth/the galaxy/Normandy spared, relays damaged.
-Earth/the galaxy/Normandy/Shepard spared, relays damaged.
@@willfanofmanyii3751 there is not a single file in the ME3/BioGame/Movies directory that shows what you describe. What is your proof of this previously completely unheard of claim?
I loved your reactions to Garrus romance! It's my favorite because not only he's a true friend who will always be there for you, but also because everyone has a little bit of Garrus in him or her. And it makes that character an immediately relatable one. I'm super awkward with women, so I connected with him instantly. And he has the heart at the right place.
However, what the hell was that game?! :D Wrex and Mordin dead? The Genophage cure sabotaged? I don't even do that in my renegade games! I just find it too cruel and nobody messes with my crew! I would never betray Wrex since he's my next best friend after Garrus. Renegade Shepard doesn't have to be psychopathic, he/she is simply blunt, impolite, undisciplined and ruthless sometimes, but you don't have to be mean with your crew.
Eh, I can justify it:
Wrex pointed a gun at Shepard on Virmire and made it clear he intended to disobey Shepard's orders. _Maybe_ you can get him to back down, but how can you guarantee Wrex will _stay_ on your side? Anything could happen in the labs, and the last thing you want is a Krogan shooting you in the back.
The Krogan once plunged the whole galaxy into total war and, apart from Wrex and Eve, basically every Krogan you meet is a brute that just wants to kill everything they see. Sabotaging the cure is the safe play for galactic stability, plus it guarantees both Salarian and Krogan support for Earth at a time when you need all the help you can get.
@@rdrrr ich stimme zu.
@@Whereisfebruary And I don't speak German neither!
Lmao my favorite part of the citadel DLC is when Garrus and Zaeed talk about boobie trapping Shepards apartment.
Garrus/Tali talk about cerberus if you made those mission in ME1. They remind you about all those experiments.
38:50 as someone on the ace spectrum, its makes me so happy to see one of my favorite youtubers being able to explain what it means!
garrus is just awesome
Garr-bear is the best, it's one of the few hetro romances I love ❤.
"There is no Shepherd without Vakarian."
Garrus....so awkward with his initial expressions....but confident with a rifle in his hands...or with Commander Shepard in his hands.
I always pick destroyed cause In beginning that's what Shepard's main goal was get rid of the reapers. The right choice isn't always the easy one but I believe EDI would've understand why I Pick that much as I don't liked it I don't see any other way and the reapers can not get away with mass murder.
i agree
like i'm sorry to to other people who choose differently but destroy was the only option that made sense to me and shep is alive is just a bonus
it's what the game was pushing you to do the whole time and what you would have done automatically if not for the horrible ai kid saying ~choices~ which is one reason why the ending was so bad in the first place
if destroy was the automatic choice it would be far less complicated not only to write around and let shepard live but it makes the most sense aznd isn't some far out notion of having a ai shepard overlord or re-writing everyone's dna without consent
i do feel for the ai the geth and edi but they were prepared to die just like the rest of the population and i'm sure they especially knew the probability of the reapers being destroyed will also impact them
hell, it was a part of edi's arc her whole conversation of why prisoners' would die to save others (that conversation) mirrors what happens and her putting her live on the line to save others with the destroy ending
it just overalls fits the best in my mind
i know some people try to argue why would you get the quarian and geth to cooperate if they die anyway but again, they die on their own terms and died in peace living in harmony with their creators (and it benefits the quarian people immensely too)
yes, it's sad and i feel bad for them but i'd personally rather do what must be done rather than listen to some old god machine thing who thinks murdering civilizations is the answer
doing what shepard set out to do this whole time is what feels satisfying, not listening to the enemy and that will never change my mind
12:40 the man sensed the sexual tension between shepherd and garrus 😆
And that was the only time Shepard could ever dance for shit
All my years playing MASS EFFECT... I NEVER SAW The Tango with Garrus & Sheppard!!! 🤘😅
Don't care what anyone says, there's no way in hell Garrus would let her run there alone at the end, he'd stay and snipe the marauder shields head off.
1:20:14
What really got me in this scene was Garrus’s eyes
idk why, but thats what cracked me
I love Garrus's romance so much.
Garrus is absolutely a himbo golden retriever boyfriend with bi wife energy and it’s the only romance I’ll ever pursue in these games 😊
"Shepard, I brought you breakfast!"
1:05:58 I love this. Garrus is so hot he could seduce most women with just his looks and voice, which means he doesnt need to work as hard, which means his flirting skills are actually pretty terrible when up against people who could resist his charms.
There’s no Shepard without Vakarian
There is no Shepard without Vakarian. SImple as.
Hopefully you check out different versions of this and maybe some others, his party lines of both versions, his additional dialog and character interaction regarding romance.
Shepherd is a one turian kind of woman because Garrus is a one turian army.
Wrex smash or pass ... all the krogan females already smashed him. There is not enough ice in the galaxy to cool off his crotch ... "MORE ICE!"
I know right? Poor guy, but that was one of my favorite scenes in the Citadel DLC! 😂
This made me a big fan of Garrus’s voice actor Brandon Keenan.
I wonder if they got wings under that armor after all Ostrichs cant fly either :D
Possibly the best friend anyone can have since Chewbacca
Wrex is my Shepard's best friend
Ah Garrus
The good ole boy
The sexiest bird person in the galaxy.
There were even more moments missing from that compilation.
Around 28:46, I didn't know that along a dog you guys had added a crow to the family.
And for your next Playthrough, there is actually a MOD where Shepard Survives the Ending... in THE HAPPY ENDING MOD... ONLY the Reapers are destroyed. The Geth, Edie, and even Shepard LIVE, and you officially see them on the Normandy in the final scene! ✌️😎
Not gonna lie he was part of how I realized I was bi
Its the voice..always the voice
The smoothest voice in the galaxy that’s guaranteed to make one wanna go buy some McD’s Chicken Selects & Smucker’s Natural Jam [real things] 😅
my first me2 playthrough i romanced garrus. he was the only one who died on the suicide mission. it was vary dramatic. garrus was my tech guy in me1, so i picked him to go in the vents.
"Horny Tears", now that is something I can never un-hear. Definitely worth trademarking.
Garrus constantly makes me question My sexuality
Ive been looking forward to this
I think I know what Meg is buying next from the EA Shop...
Despite my preference for same sex romances,Garrus is my 2nd favorite character in Mass Effect to romance.
I love how Ford in your stream said the tango scene is totally from True Lies.....because yes it is.....Jamie Lee Curtis and Arnold dancing tango will forever be LEGENDARY! Lol
I can see your cheeks turning red 😂😂
:Love this stream I love to see more in 2022 Megmage and maybe some Cosplay ones too
It's funny because the vids Joker gave Garrus were probably p@r n 😂😂😂
Probably?!
I’ve always felt that FemShep x Garrus and BroShep x Tali were the best ones. Liara is a close 3rd place.
Such a goofy scene but makes it the all more blessed I guess!!
Because if your gonna date a Alien at least he should be able to dance!
I wish there was a way to have a polyamorous relationship with Garrus and Tali! 🥰 or a mix of any of the others
No tali belongs to me 😐😠
the closest thing you get is if you romance garrus tali in the citadel dlc will mention she wants to have sex with both of them together LOL
she just took a breath
your reaction was my reaction too!! HORNY TEARS😂 the script writers need bonuses fo sho! Find me a humanoid that acts and talks like this 😆
so Argentina is cannon in the ME Universe
Dead alien? He survives if you do the missons right n you can romance him in me3
She was talking about Thane
This playthrough is herasy Wreve.... Padok......
Love your thoughts but the Mass Effect 3 part was disturbing, Padoc Wix? Urdnot Wreave? Yuck!
Nothing you do in ME 1 effects any romance with Garrus in the sequels.. Wasted effort to show clips from ME 1.
It does affect how Garrus acts in his loyalty mission.
Great video
Love Naughty gaming channel
Sometimes a little rengade is always fun
Thats why Paragade is the best thing
imo of course
Why do girls like dinosaur bird man with cat face?
Not a fan of his romance tbh. In ME2 it felt more a fling between teenagers than a serious romance which putted me off instantly. "WaNt to TesT mY flExIbIliTy?!" In ME3 it gets better I'll admit.
Thane's romance is my personal favorite for femShep. Really emotional, mature and heartbreaking yet so tender and sweet, always brings tears to my eyes. kaidan is a nice romance as well , love the drama in ME2 and how he cooks for you on the Citadel DLC. Don't get the hate he gets, it's ridiculous.
This is just my opinion. Don't crucify me for it 😅
i mean i just feel like its meant to be like that lol. garrus eventually grows into quite a smooth talker, and plus idk if its meant to be super serious yet in me2 imo.
... it's a joke
they are best friends so it's awkward and garrus makes jokes to break the ice and so does shepard because they already know each other well enough so they aren't starting from scratch like all the other romances (besides tali, in which it's exactly the same [the awkwardness])
obviously you can have a preference but it doesn't make the romance any less serious because jokes are made and they have to adjust to the change in relationship status only knowing each other one way and now shifting into another
garrus always has and always will joke with shepard anyway, it's how some LI's are with bioware, doesn't mean he's not serious all the time (for example it's the same in DA with alistair, zevran, isabela, sera, dorian & iron bull but it doesn't make the romances teenagery)
anyway, i'm not mad about your opinion i'm just defending why I like it because it's actually my favorite romance
not only is it slow burn friends to lovers but it has a bunch of different aspects to a relationship... i laugh, i cry and i feel they have a unbreakable bond i don't feel with many other pairings
as far as the other two romances you mentioned, i also like them too (there isn't much romances i dislike besides jacob and james vega fling for obvious reasons)
thane is great but it's hard to compare it because of the lack of content, me2 doesn't really have much depth as me3 does with relationships
i really like kaidan's, there isn't some big thrill to it i feel with garrus but it's really wholesome and nice
@@nightfrost1891 Fair enough. Everybody is entittled to their opinion. If Garrus's romance stirrs all possible emotions in you then I don't judge you for finding it the best pairing. Just like Tali and Thane's romance for me, they stirr lots of emotions and feelings on me and more which is why I find those 2 the best romances.
Have a nice day 😊
@@nightfrost1891 Plus side conversations with Garrus show his serious side in ME2 and 3, including him mentioning someone will not have a good day if Shepard gets hurt.
My favorite is Kaidan. Second is Thane. I prefer Garrus with Tali. They are so darn cute together.
Can you react to mans1ay3r mass effects videos?
por que la mayoria de las mujeres usen destruir en ves de los otros finales que son mejores que ese.
