10 Most Beloved Video Game NPCs Of The Decade

1. Garrus Vakarian (Mass Effect 3)

It seems a lifetime ago since the last time we interrupted the sharpshooting Turian in the middle of some calibrations, but Garrus Vakarian still holds a special place in the hearts of players to this day, and stands out as the most memorable member of the Mass Effect Universe.

Garrus Vakarian was a mainstay in your crew throughout the whole of the Mass Effect trilogy. He was a level head within a crew that was full of ruthless mercenaries, unhinged biotics and Krogan warriors. Garrus very much felt like the second in command, being the wise council that a player would always seek advice from, whether in the field of battle or back on the Normandy.

The beauty of Garrus is that he went beyond just being useful. He has a rich history and loyalty that makes him the best alien friend anyone could ask for. If your love for him went beyond platonic, he was romantic and tender.

Garrus was the perfect companion on a long and difficult journey. Someone we will never forget.
