We are almost at the finale of the Mass Effect Trilogy. Ever since ME1 people have been curious to what Quarians look like under their suits. In ME2 bioware teased players in tali's romance cutscene. Do you want to see her face, or leave it to your imagination?
Mass Effect 3
Game » consists of 19 releases. Released Mar 06, 2012
When Earth begins to fall in an ancient cycle of destruction, Commander Shepard must unite the forces of the galaxy to stop the Reapers in the final chapter of the original Mass Effect trilogy.
Do you want to see Tali's face?
I guess I don't really care either way. It would be interesting to see what the Quarians look like(not just Tali, but all of them in general), but it's not something I think they really NEED to do.
I just want to see what a quarian looks like. Some of the alien design in ME are great, while others are dull... Hoping for something like pilot (from farscape) and not generic alien X (from any number of star trek series (oh look, they have a funny looking nose, but everything else is human for some reason)).
No, not her specifically. Seeing an unmasked Quarian would be cool, but they probably just look like pale humans.
What I really want to do is push an Elchor over, or punch a 'big stupid jellyfish' reporter...
I think it would be great if you saw Reegar or the Claudia Black Admiral, and then had to guess based on that what Tali looks like.
I think the ultimate touching scene (although based on the hardsci fiction it won't happen), is in the end credits the quarians are on Rannoch and slowly they all take off their masks in some open field. And little quarian kids run around. That's schmaltzy, but I think I might fucking cry if that happened.

I think BioWare will put in a sequence where you totally think they're actually going to show her face, and then cut away again or interrupt it and never bring it up again. That said, if they do this, I'd probably get choked up too.
They have stated long time ago that they know how her face looks but they are not sure if they are going to show it, either way it will be interesting and I'm cool with it either way.
I honestly would not have cared if Shepard would never have seen it. Either go all the way with the whole Quarians can never go out of their suit or show me how they look like.
They went for neither, my character saw her face, but unfortunately, the cameraman was sleeping when it happened.
So yes, only because Shepard saw it.

Not really. I don't get why nerds are so obsessed with Tali. She's lame.
Noooooo!! Tali's sweet and adorable. If Bioware kill her off for good in ME3 I'll be pissed.
As for the question; it'd be cool to see her face. Maybe just a hint of skin if her suit gets damaged.
Yea they should. Might as well and it really isn't going to make the game or Tali better or worse so long as they do it right. Also I totally expect a nice looking face because I have a hard time believing Bioware is going to actually try and convince people that Shepard can stomach a horrible alien-esque face. Also they know their rabid fans would be secretly upset at them doing it. It will at least be an average-looking face that will complement who Tali is should they actually do it.
I think it would be an injustice to that character if ME3 doesn't have a scene where the quarian homeworld is saved/reclaimed, Tali doesn't have to wear the mask and maybe it's humorous because Shepard is the one having to wear his space helmet. There is a way to do it that could be awesome and well worth the build up.
