Yeah. And those who actually played the games know it. I bet it's easy to find on some wiki too. And yes, I know that this "question" is posted in most threads involving any of these games. It's still moronic.

Yeah. "BW" are weird sometimes.
It started in ME1 too. Humanity joined Citadel space like 30 years ago, they had been confined to our solar system before then. Yet somehow humanity's fleet is instrumental in defending the Citadel, they are on equal footing militarily with species that have controlled nearly the entire Milky Way Galaxy for thousands of years.
It wasn't anywhere NEARLY this bad. It had flaws, some of them significant. But it wasn't this level of flying circus.
>humanity's fleet is instrumental in defending the Citadel
The First Contact War lead to the Alliance possessing a powerful fleet in the end, and since they were reverse-engineering from the main Citadel space military species (wreckage, some at most partially damaged) it makes sense that the tech level is similar to their. >they are on equal footing militarily with species that have controlled nearly the entire Milky Way Galaxy for thousands of years.
Nowhere near the entire galaxy because after Rachni were discovered dusting off newly discovered relays is forbidden.
The only real problem is Asari being this old and not having immensely powerful/advanced everything. This is implicitly handwaved by them being so amicable and, I guess, not having the tens of thousands of generations like everyone who typically lives 10 times less than them on a "normal" world.

Don't they just mostly hug relays, and explore only a little bit away from them because the non-relay FTL sucks in-setting?

Unless I'm forgetting something, then no, they are only limited by relays and lack of hostile someone/something. The problem is that relays are near-instantaneous and "normal FTL" takes days, weeks, months instead of decades, centuries, aeons like it would for non-FTL travel.

Although I think I've misunderstood and you were asking about travelling to distant unexplored parts of the galaxy instead of using the relays. In which case yeah, that would take decades due to the distances involved. They kinda do "hug relays" but only to an extent. If there are no large voids of no star systems things eventually get explored.

Yeah so they don't really control large parts of the galaxy, just small nodes here and there.

If it's a cluster even just one relay is enough to have it completely explored and even decently settled in a few centuries. Nothing for Asari.
To be fair it's more of a "humans are the main character" issue.
At least bioware handles this by showing the other races being fricking terrified of humans for this feat.

>a "humans are the main character" issue
The only real example is getting a first Spectre uncharacteristically quickly. But after the war with Turians it's not quite that surprising due to the only other species who managed to fight them without imploding while being at a tech disadvantage were Krogan and Rachni. Everyone else is pretty much scared shitless of Turian military.

Yes, it's really only present in the first game but the Turian council member basically sees humans as a potential krogan level threat.

We already know plenty about that IRL. The main trick of the game is meme fields that shield you from all kinds of harmful radiation AND create artificial gravity AND allow FTL AND give you impossibly cost-efficient guns. >spreading throughout the galaxy
Wild west but in space. And probably lots of other examples I can't think of at the moment. Spreading must be among the top 10 things humans do best. >into prominent positions

Like I said, it's at least addressed in the first game with "hey why are you guys allowed to do all this shit lul."
In setting, humanity rapidly ascended because they were the first innovators in centuries and because they didn't immediately get rolled by the Turians in first contact, which made the big players take an interest and give them a leg up.
The game even points out that other races are getting pissed at obvious favoritism shown to humanity

There's no trilogy. 2 is a reboot of the original and 3 is a reboot of 2. They completely throw out everything the previous game(s) have established/developed and only have superficial elements connecting them, like events and characters that are only similar in appearance and maybe some details. And Cobra... sorry, "Cerberus" just plain doesn't make sense and is the central point of both of the post-EA-aquisition games.
I pride myself on putting women's other qualities over looks, but despite Liara's great voice and personality her appearance is just so unappealing to me
not only is she just a blue human from a campy 1960s science fiction tv show, but something about how round and juvenile her face is is fairly off-putting
It's a bit weird since the item rework. She was busted recently abusing the broken Duskblade interaction that made her invulnerable during ult but they just fixed that. I find she is more awkward atm since they nuked shieldbow, it's much harder to work in lifestyle early on like before so she feels more vulnerable/harder to get going. Also the style of the game atm is very 1000% movement speed, enchanters everywhere long range shit which is awkward. You can still wombo combo snowball with a good engage support tho.
Oh also they are giving her an """"ultimate""""" skin for the summer event that has pissed everyone off because it's basically a legendary, so they will probably buff her on it's release.
Do those blue tentacle hairs have a name
Can she control them? Since that would be interesting

They are somewhat flexible but not prehensile

Its the video game thing where all human models are the exact same height with no variation.
Although tall Tali sounds nice.

It's a bit weird since the item rework. She was busted recently abusing the broken Duskblade interaction that made her invulnerable during ult but they just fixed that.
