Tali is a squad member and romance option for those playing as a male Shepard in Mass Effect 3, which is part of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition. An imported save of a Shepard who started a relationship with Tali in the second game is needed to be with Tali in the final game of the trilogy.
How to Romance Tali in Mass Effect 3
To romance Tali in Mass Effect 3, players must import a save of a male Shepard who entered a relationship with her, and Tali must have survived the suicide mission in Mass Effect 2. As long as these requirements are met, Shepard will meet Tali again during the "Geth Dreadnought" mission. Choose "Do you still want me" when talking with her for the first time to have a flirty conversation with Tali.
Head to Shepard's room and invite Tali up by using the private terminal. Choose "I'm here for you" and "I want to be with you" to lock in a relationship with Tali for the rest of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition. This must be done before starting the "Rannoch" mission or Shepard can't continue a romance with Tali any further.
During both missions with Tali, the pair will have conversations about their relationship as long as it has been locked in. If Tali survives the events of Rannoch by Shepard making peace between the geth and quarians, or choosing the quarians, she will join him until the end. Make sure to talk with Tali on the Normandy to receive a unique gift from her.
Tali will also be included in the optional "Citadel" DLC for Mass Effect 3. As long as players told Tali they wished to be with her in the conversation in Shepard's cabin, there will be a few romantic scenes between the two. Make sure to pick Tali as a squadmate for even more conversations with her.
How to Get Romance Scene With Tali in Mass Effect 3
As long as players have locked in a relationship with her, and she survives Rannoch, Tali will come to Shepard's quarters when the mission to assault Cronos Station is selected. Select "Yes, I would" to spend the night with her.
Make sure to talk to Tali before the final push on Earth for one last extended talk between the pair. If Tali is a squadmate during the final assault and survives as part of the best ending in Mass Effect 3, she is forced back to the Normandy. Shepard can tell her they love her one last time before parting ways.
