Interesting, im not sure unmasking Tali is something quite needed since the mystique factor is kind of cool but....ill be curious to see how she turns out.

Maybe it will be reverse Samus and be a guy.

Never really had the want to see Tali's face. Don't know why. I like her character but if I don't see her face it won't upset me. Also that last sentence about punching the reporter is awesome. I loved decking her in the first game and then in the second game as soon as you see her you punch her again. That was awesome and absolutely hysterical.

I kind of like the mystery. I don't think it's really necessary to see her face.

I don't see a reason why to do it. All it would do is out a face to a character who already has one. This reminds me of when I was angry when I first found out they weren't revealing Master Chief's face in Halo 3, and then realize that it would be a stupid move to do it. People learned to love the big green mechanical giant, not some generic face underneath. It won't add anything IMO, and will only move to confuse people who knew and loved Tali as she was.

The problem with the reveal is that everyone has a different idea of what is under the mask. I think there is no good way to do it. You are bound to piss a lot of people off because the vision is always going to be so different.

I'm ready to see it. I've been chasing that since ME1. Time for some payoff.

I think they shouldn't unmask it, not only for the mystique factor, but because from an artistic standpoint, many people have already filled in the void, and imagined what she would look like(and the rest of her species). Keep the mystery alive, honestly.

It's the same thing with Darth Vader, it kind of killed it when they decided to show him as a kid, and what not. What made him so badass is because you knew very little about the dude.

What killed Darth Vadar for my was Hayden Christianson or however you spell his name.

I kinda agree with Bioware. It's a tough call at this point. So many Tali fanboys have decided already that she will be gorgeous without ever seeing her. The last thing they want is for her to end up a butterface. At least I know I'll get to punch another reporter.
