It's really the earliest signs of how much your choices can affect a character: either encourage Garrus' notions that the law is ineffective and he should work outside it, or temper his vigilantism by reminding him that regulations help maintain lines between himself and the criminals. It's a dynamic that's been done before and done again, especially in narrative games like Life is Strange 2 and Telltale's Batman series , but there isn't a great deal that comes of it.
At one point, you get to do a special mission for Garrus, one of two character-focused missions that feel like the earliest precursor to loyalty missions. You can help him kill a horrid, wretched doctor who's been conducting terrible experiments on his subjects, or turn him into the authorities. It's the start of something, but Garrus largely ends Mass Effect 1 as he entered it: a cop who's questioning the law, seeking advice from a fellow enforcer of it.
There are a lot of incredible moments in Mass Effect 2, but I keep coming back to Garrus' introduction. Shepard is on the seedy outer rim world of Omega, essentially one giant hub of crime built into a floating bit of rock. There is sex, drugs, gangs, and violence everywhere, and disrupting the usual continuity of vices is one entity, the enigmatic Archangel.
Anyone who's played Mass Effect 1 probably knows what comes next, but it's the build-up to the reveal that makes it. After sneaking into a band of mercenary forces meant to distract Archangel, you work way through the carnage hearing hints and whispers: a sniper rifle, deadly aim, witty tactics, almost killed a Krogan warlord.
Then, he shows up. It's almost reassuring seeing how much Garrus has aged in the two years between Mass Effect games. Where there was once an idealistic and ticked-off rookie, now there was a certified badass with a sniper rifle and an attitude. He was more confident than ever, playfully bantering with Shepard about how he had to wing them a few times to make their deception work. Soon, you battle your way out of an ambush together, annihilating three gangs' worth of mercenaries and getting out of it with only a scar on Garrus' face.
He'll carry that, along with the charred and broken armor, for the rest of the game if you choose to; a nice reminder that he's still cobbling it together on the fly.
Mass Effect was built with the intention of choices and decisions carrying across all three games. It did, depending on who you ask, accomplish all that. But that continuity alone wouldn't have been as impressive if the characters hadn't felt like they were growing and evolving as well. As great as Mass Effect 1 is— some might say it's the best —it's how these characters grow over time that made them who they are by the end of Mass Effect 3.
As a standalone character in a single debut appearance, Garrus Vakarian is certainly memorable. He, along with Urdnot Wrex, and occasionally Tali, made up my go-to squad. But they weren't the characters who I know and love now. To create the Garrus that inspires the level of love he does today, you need a number of factors: growth, nuance, and time. Mass Effect 2 introduced the idea of loyalty missions, which were special squadmate-centric sidequests that would ultimately prepare them for the game's infamous epilogue, the "Suicide Mission.
Later games, like Mass Effect Andromeda , would turn these missions into routine expectations, part of a patented BioWare Formula. But Mass Effect 2's loyalty missions all had a tinge of sadness to them; these were bucket-list tasks. Romance Scene As with many Bioware titles, the climactic Romance scene will occur automatically just before the final story Mission, in this case just after you initiate the Suicide Mission via the Omega-4 Relay.

There's a very cool trick you can use here that, while difficult to pull off, is more than worth it.
Their body will slide down the slope and closer to the other mech, instantly taking it out and saving your a LOT of hassle! Once they are finished, you can then press forward towards the room Harkin is hiding out in. Unfortunately as you do you'll be forced to climb raised platforms to your left, and you will be assaulted by two LOKI Mechs at the top.
Those LOKI Mechs represent the final enemies you'll actively fight in this Mission, though as you're about to find out, there's more fighting to be done via cutscene. When you finally catch up with Harkin he'll try to escape, but will be caught by surprise thanks to Garrus and roughed up. After Harkin agrees to set up a meeting he tries to leave, but Garrus won't let him off that easy since he is, after all, a criminal.
When Harkin says that killing him isn't Garrus' style, Garrus will line up a shot to his legs to "slow him down a little". You'll now be headed for the climax of the Mission, where Shepard talks with Sidonis while Garrus lines up the shot. Shepard will talk with Garrus in the car about the coming confrontation, and there are in fact many different options you can pick. It's easy to figure out though: the upper options are Paragon while the lower options are Renegade.
You'll now move on to the confrontation itself: Shepard meets with Sidonis while Garrus lines up the shot from a faraway balcony. As with the cab scene there's a lot of permutations and paths through the various options here, but suffice to say that Paragons will want to get in the way of the shot while Renegades will step out of the way and let Garrus take it. That said, for Paragons there is a Paragon Interrupt during this scene that you MUST take if you want to negotiate with Garrus to spare Sidonis and hear more of his story.
Similarly, if at any time you pick "[Let Garrus take the shot]", Sidonis will die. However the meeting with Sidonis went down, you'll reconvene with Garrus back at the balcony. If you let Garrus kill Sidonis, pick "You done with this? While completing this Loyalty Mission will simply return you to Zakera Ward, you may want to return to the Normandy for new dialogue:.
