There's a potentially huge spoiler in that interview so I'll just quote what I'm referring to here.

Spoiler: show

Every major character [from the first game] is actually back in Mass Effect 2. Now only some of them however, are recruitable as squad members. Some of the characters, the potential love interests, some of the most popular characters - We needed to make sure that these characters could not be killed.
...
A character like Tali, for example. She's quite a bit more grown up, and then that is a different story about how you get to learn a little bit more about her. We've also added the ability to have romances with some of the characters from Mass Effect 1 that you haven't been able to before.

Not quite concrete evidence but the implications here are pretty obvious.

I'm okay with this.

I'm okay with this.

I am too if it results in some kind of threesome ala Dragon Age Origins.

Yeah I saw that clip before but my thoughts on that:

Spoiler: show

I don't think you'll be able to have a relationship with Tali because A) she can't remove her environment suit (one of the quarians in the novel goes insane just moments after getting a crack in theirs from the bacteria in the air) and B) they wouldn't mention her just before saying you can romance people from ME1 but say it's a secret as to who.

That really only leaves a few options, like Garrus or one of the non-teammate supporting players (as evidenced by being able to seduce your secretary). I really struggle to think of who that might be, aside from like... Conrad Verner lol.

[Obev]

Don't think you'd be able to go for Tali or Garrus because

Spoiler: show

according to in-game fluff in the Codex, Quarians and Turians have different body chemistry and puke or die when they eat human food. Guess they'd puke if they ate your cock too, so unless you're into that...

Then again, there's that Turian general who drinks himself to death because he's in love with an Asari, so I dunno.

My bet's on being able to romance Wrex.

How do the quarians reproduce then?(even though I took the suit as the reason you couldn't nail Tali back in ME1)

Spoiler: show

It's probably Nassana Dantius, also dont forget Joker or Doctor Chakwas/Navigator Pressley/Anderson! I'm sure Emily Wong would reappear in some form too so that's another option, or being able to hook up with Kaidan/Ashley again

On a side note, how long will it be before Bioware is just making sex rpgs/simulators, I mean their games have been going in this direction by leaps and bounds with each game since Jade Empire

Spoiler: show

Garrus wouldn't surprise me at all, there seems to be pretty high demand for him. As for non-party characters... Maybe Doctor Chakwas? lol, I don't know. Either way I'm not ruling Tali out, because of a certain post one of the writers made on the forums. He even mentions specifically that a tear in a quarian's suit wouldn't necessarily cause disease so much as an exaggerated reaction to airborne bacteria. I'm sure if the area were sterile enough they'd be fine without their suits, regardless of whether or not they're on the flotilla.

Shephard's cock is the only cure for the genophage.

[BadKarma]

I'm going to romance Subject Zero and listen to Crazy Bitch by Buckcherry

[Mizango]

lolConrad. I got that dude killed in my playthroughs.

[Mizango]

I'd hit Tali six ways to Sunday though, shes the only female that escaped my wrath in the first one. She will be mine.

[Atreides]

the only problem I have is like... Tali is supposed to be ~15-16 years old in the first game, right? Seems kinda silly to go out on your Space Bat Mitzvah when you're past your teen years.

I mean I guess 3 years later is cool and all, but it still seems weird to me. Plus, we don't even know what Quarians look like (and I really hope they let us see what they look like under the suits this time around!), they could be all gross.

I guess you could conceivably meet up with the Asari you freed from the Thorian on Feros, or the Parasini chick from Noveria. Hmm...

Quarians don't need to wear the environment suits on the flotilla, since it's already clean there etc. It wouldn't make sense for a resource-poor people like the Quarians to have each of its million+ citizens have their own personal enviro suits, pretty sure they're given out for pilgrimages/shore leave/etc only. Also about Nassana:

Spoiler: show

I'm pretty sure Thane assassinates her right away, and that's your introduction to Thane. Your actions in Asari Diplomacy probably only determine how she acts towards you before her death

She's 24 in ME2, so that puts her at 22 in the first game.

[ZarakiKujata]

Is 22 'teenage' for quarians like how Liara is 100+ years old in ME1 but is just barely considered an adult?

[Mizango]

Stop shitting on my dreams.

[ZarakiKujata]

Stop shitting on my dreams.

Look I wanted to rail her as bad as you did I just dont want Mass Effect 3 to be about Chris Hansen becoming a spectre and chasing Shephard across the galaxy for intergalactic statutory.

[BadKarma]

Stop shitting on my dreams.

But what if Tali wants to shit on your chest

All of the commercial's I've seen it ends with "Fight for the Lost!" what is the lost?
