Keeping this in mind, here are the top five characters that best stand for what BioWare is and shows off their games the best.
Bastila
Bastila is a beautiful Jedi that and she makes video games can make you feel like you’re actually falling in love.
I’m not here to state that Bastila was a particularly unique character. She was, and is, some moonlit, sultry-toned lady Jedi existing solely to pluck the heartstrings of young men slowly understanding the lovelorn potential of the rapidly flattening uncanny valley. I don’t much about our kinship, other than how it was very, very real. I convincing her to make up with her mother, leading to an unanimated, implied kiss, which set my world ablaze.
Alistair
Alistair was, and is, perfect. He knew how to be serious when some real shit was going down, but he could also crack a joke while still under pressure. He was the one, out of BioWare’s history where the boilerplate dude actually was someone worth investing in.
characters in RPG history, who’d swing between muddy tactics jargon and inexplicable outrage whenever the plot desired. We’re talking about huge armadas threatening the extinction of the entire galaxy! Your binary obsession with abstract justice isn’t helping matters Carth!
Thane
What is not great about Thane? Seriously, he is one bad-ass assassin when the time comes, but on the ship he takes on a totally different persona. He meditates in the dark corners of the ship and regrets the blood he has had to shed.
Look, I just have a thing for the holy assassin. That dude meditating in the dank corners of the starship, regretfully efficient in his bloodshed. Moping on the memory of his late wife, or his terrible absent fatherhood, or the general nihilism of a doomed species living on a distant planet. That guy is always the best. Thane is king, now and forever.
Tali and Garrus
These two will drive you crazy when it comes to romances. In Mass Effect, pleasing all those that could not intermingle with the pair.
That’s just how things are done. But for some reason, be it lack of disc space or a conscious decision to hold back, Commander Shepard couldn’t woo the bodysuited Tali’Zorah nar Rayya nor the stone-faced Garrus Vakarian. You could try, but you would fail. The code would not bend to your lascivious desires.
HK-47
Tatooine who would make all enemies who encountered him tremble.
Bioware always did artificial intelligence very well. Legion remains one of the most memorable characters from the put a hole in your back, but that made the relationship that much more unique.
