Always enjoy watching these because no matter how many times I run through this beautiful trilogy, I can't help but take Tali and Garrus everywhere. Very weird to develop an attachment to npc's but another testament to the fantastic writing and fantastic everything really.

[@Ctrooper2011]

If I played the game, I'd bring Garrus plus whoever balanced out our classes.

Did you notice that in Reaper's fight scene with Kairos, the latter makes identical noises to Ghidorah's dragon from Japanese monster movies?

[@henryarbaugh7255]

First time I did that mission I brought Garrus and Javik. I didn’t know what would happen during the mission but even in mass effect 2 Tuchanka always seemed like a ‘boys club’ kind of place so I’d only use characters like garrus, grunt, zaeed, etc there.

dude kalros defeating that reaper was so cool god mass effect is awesome

[@thenut7246]

I only ever bring Liara and Garrus for this mission. It's with Wrex so I have to get the gang back together.

[@louisewilson2044]

Me too. Plus it seemed right to bring Garrus as curing the genophage helps secure the alliance between turian and krogan. I also thought Liara being a former archeologist would like to see the krogan ruins.
