While Mass Effect Legendary Edition has made some changes that have divided fans slightly, this particular change is fairly likely to receive a positive response. Tali is posing in a more rigid way, rather than the more sultry pose of the original, and her mask is just below her chin, ready to be reapplied should the need arise. The more important detail, perhaps, is that the photograph appears to be taken under more realistic circumstances. However, Tali is now shown to have a pale complexion, white irises, and purple markings on her face. Luckily for those angered by the original's lackluster reveal, Mass Effect Legendary Edition has altered the image to be a much more faithful representation of what Tali would look like under the mask.Īs with the original, the image is still displayed as a photograph on the desk of Commander Shepard in Mass Effect 3. Fans who had been waiting for a reveal of Tali's face for the entire Mass Effect series were obviously fairly disappointed, accusing BioWare of being disrespectful to the character. This image was controversial, as it was later discovered to simply be a photoshopped image of a stock model, made to have purple skin and some Quarian markings.
