I mean, does "giddy noise of happiness" count as an opinion?
Let me be more eloquent. I really like Garrus, but I am also really in love with the entire Mass Effect squad except maybe Zaeed and maybe he can even come along too. But Garrus? Garrus I could just kind of watch talk and derp around for days, because he is a giant dinosaurish guy who kind of doesn't know what he's doing--this even extends to a certain point into Mass Effect 2, when he attempts to get all "serious" and wanders between "badass sniping of guys" and "angryyyyy". I think he's a really interesting addtion to the squad, especially given how he acts as a barometer to kind of tell where you sit on the Paragon/Renegade scale.

8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
No, but by gum do I love him anyway.

If someone wanted to know what was amazing about ME from me, they'd hear about Garrus - along with pretty much the rest of the cast.

(I will say that I love how his behavior in the origins gives you insight into him as a person; he is so kind and sympathetic to the two street-urchin/criminal types, even going so far as to give the dwarf commoner a present, come on. That you later find out that he came from an impoverished, criminal background is kind of heart-warming when you think about it.)
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
He's the Call to Action Mentor Guy, I told you that already--and you know what that means. He's not getting out of the First Act alive. I knew that going in, because, epic fantasy, duh. Still, Ostagar was a genuine punch in the gut to me, because of the ( ... )
