Mass Effect Series

Ok so what's everyones favorite characters from top to bottom?
I'm only going to list playable characters for the most part.

Garrus-my right hand man all the way, loved his character from beginning to the end, and his little romance with Tali in ME3 was hilarious

Wrex- blunt, to the point, and a badass krogan.

Legion- good character to actually give voice to the geth, and really made an impact on me in ME3

Tali-the best female character in the series, she's witty and mysterious, the mysterious portion probably being the reason I couldn't pull the trigger on the romance

Mordin-hilarious, and typical of the salarian species, seems to be a crowd favorite of a lot of fans

Miranda-my romance from ME2 through ME3. She has a rough bitchy exterior, but once you get to know her better, she softens up, and you learn a lot more about her and her hardships, plus she is smokin

Liara-never really cared for her character in the first game, but she made a big impact in ME3. I took her on almost every mission and she seemed to care about Shepherd the most.

Grunt-another cool krogan, but not as cool as Wrex

Thane-cool drell assassin, learned a lot about his history, his illness, and his loyalty, great character, wish he was around more.

Jack--pissed off badass chick who brought some renegade feel to the females in the series. Awesome backstory with Jack, and cool to see her transformation in the third game.

Ashley-ok at first, but got annoying, betrayed me in the second game which pissed me off, and then wanted to get back with me in the third. Forget that skank

Samara--meh, just kind of there

Kaiden--who?

Jacob--ok, just kind of there, not really polarizing on either end, not terrible, but not great

James--ME3's version of Jacob

Kasumi/Zaeed--Kasumi is definitely the better of the two, but we don't get to see enough of her.

Javik--probably the best dlc character to date, not what I thought a prothean would be like, but still he is a good character with a unique view on things and his own agenda

EDI--good character, but only there in physical to keep Joker company.

I might be forgetting someone but oh well, remind me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Joker-memorable pilot throughout the series, Seth Green is the perfect fit as his VA, and fun to conversed with him

The Illusive Man--maybe one of the best villains of all time imo

Kai Leng--awesome entrance into the third game, class A asshole, and even more so in the novels

I know that I can't really say much when it comes to the ending of ME3 since I haven't played it yet but... doesn't anyone think that all this hate towards the ending is getting out of control? Both EA and Bioware are being sue because of it *I know right* l'll admit that I have gotten my fair share of dissapointing endings from certain games but to go this far cause of an ending?

its ridiculous imo, I just give props to Bioware for changing it, when they don't have too, and I probably wouldn't, I have never seen a company do that before

lol, the ending especially. Is anyone gonna give their thoughts on characters? I spent a lot of time on that dammit, cmon!

where is RY at, shouldn't he be playing ME3 right now?

Would be but no money at the moment. Might get it at the end of April

I have heard that Bioware is gonna be fixing it by DLC but who knows.

@TGD that's the word on the street, and it will be sometime in April.

@Erel--I laughed my ass off about that comment on Jacob "at least he didn't sound all ghetto and annoying" hahaha

**on a side note, idk if anyone saw the little banner ad for ME3 that said "Des Moines will fall" "Take Des Moines back" and then "Take Earth Back" not really a big deal, but I thought it was cool bc I live by Des Moines in the rural state of Iowa, and we got noticed for a change. Cool

IM ORDER


URDNOT WREX- A warrior, a leader, a friend, a brother. Wrex was ME1's star character in my mind because he had the absolute most development of the entire cast. The once proud Battlemaster that had been betrayed by his own flesh and blood for believing that the Krogan could be united. Wrex was once a dreamer and was punished for it. But thanks to the great friends he makes aboard the Normandy, he regains confidence in himself to be the leader he was born to be. Wise, tough, a sharp tongue and plenty of ammo. Wrex was able to get the krogan people, who had been brainwashed with violence and pride to separate from their home to rejoin as one race, one clan, to fight for a better tomorrow. Wrex doesn't take shit from anyone either anymore now that he has gained the confidence to fight for what he believes in and it pays off with the cure that saved his people from extinction. Wrex is everything I love in a character and won my heart the day he joined the crew.

GARRUS VAKARIAN- Shepard's very best friend. Garrus had impacted me throughout the entire series. His character arc was not just the first game but the whole series. Garrus is a natrual born leader but never had the confidence to see it. His life was riddled with rules and complications made by his C-Sec proud father that made him abandon his military career to be a cop. Garrus always believed in justice but he believed in it in the wrong ways. That's why Shepard was seen as a big brother figure to Garrus in the first game. Garrus needed to get his head out of the clouds and understand the world but that's when things go bad. After Shepard's death, a man who had helped Garrus believe in himself, Garrus takes out the hate he feels for the loss of the greatest person he ever met on the criminals of Omega. No longer so uptight, Garrus became a rebel but he started showing confidence in himself. His revenge against Sidonus is also the next step in his evolution. By not letting Garrus kill Sidonus, he discovers himself again. He's not a blood thirsty person, he just wants justice. Returning to Palavin helped him truly discover himself. No longer confused or hateful, Garrus filled his true purpose, to fight along side his best friend. And given the tasks Shepard has in front of him, Garrus now is helping his friend when he needed it. Shepard and Garrus' friendship is fucking awesome and the two of them will die for each other. Garrus ranks at a very close second for me and wins a spot in my top 20 favorite characters ever.

TALI ZORAH VAS NORMANDY- Tali had the ability to not only like her as a person but her race as well. Tali's life had become so dedicated to her dying race that she was killing herself in the process. But she fought against her depression, she fought against her born duties to find what she really wanted in life. With my playthrough... It was Shepard she wanted and she got it... Over and ov- Onto the point, Tali was a great, stong character that has been a favorite of mine since the first game and she will stay that way. Not to mention she was with me for every final level in all three games ;O.

MORDIN SOLIS- He is the very model of a scientist salarian. Mordin won my heart from the first time I met him from his fast talking, quick thinking and his great sense of humor. Mordin's life was dedicated to the Genophage but what really surprised everyone is that is wasn't to make the disease stronger but to cure it. Even in the end, he had a smile on his face when faced against his doom but he loved his work and was more than happy to finish it.

THANE KIROS- The Drell are such a cool race and Thane was the best way to introduce it to us. Thane's story is touching, a father who wants redemption and in return, makes a friend and regains the love of his son. Thane also didn't let his disease get the best of him. Although he had little time to live, he refused to stay down until his body couldn't take it. Even after taking a sword through his chest, Thane stood up, grabbed his pistol and fired at the bastard that did it. Thane died a hero, just the way he deserved and he died with his friend and son by his side. He couldn't have been happier.

LEGION- This was a huge twist in the plot when Legion came to fight by the Normandy's side and that made it probably one of ME's biggest twists. Legion really helped us learn about the Geth and that they were not responsible for what happened on Rannoch. Legion also started to think for itself thanks to the Normandy's influence and was no longer a collection of programs but one being. Legion was the most... Human of the cast.

KASUMI GOTTO- Why is she DLC only? WHY!? Kasumi was a great addition to the cast and is such an interesting character. The greatest theif to ever live and you know she's great at her job because no one knows her by name. The best theives don't need to show off. Kasumi has such a rich background with her ex-lover but because her loyalty mission was The only character development she gets, she has no relevence in the plot at all. She is still a great ally to have and a genuinly nice person... She just has expensive taste. She would be in my top 5 ME characters if she had an actual purpose in the game than to be DLC.

JOKER- Why should I explain? He's Joker amd awesome.

THE REST

I'm too lazy to write the rest of the crew individually so I'll do it this way.

CHARACTERS THAT I THOUGHT WERE OKAY- Liara, Grunt, Jack, Jacob, EDI, Javik, Zaeed and Vega
I thought these guys were cool but they bothered me in more ways than most. I didn't hate them but I didn't like them.

CHARACTERS I HATE- Ashley, Kaiden, Miranda, Samara, Stupid unimportant reporter bitch in the third game on the Normandy, Kelly Chambers.
I couldn't stand them at all. Done and done.

nice list, both of you, I think we all agree for the most part, although I don't Miranda whereas a lot of ppl dislike her, I just can't get past that body.
@Erel--Kasumi was in ME3, not in a big way, but she did have her own sidequest and becomes one of your war assets

You meet her on the Citadel while doing work for a salarian spectre, and she helps you obtain information, and has a few conversations with you and reveals a secret crush she had on Jacob. You can coax her into being an asset like Jack, but she can't join your party

Right in the middle of that I think, if not, then after, look it up on youtube or somethin, i dont remember specifically, I made a lot of trips back and forth from the Citadel
