I know that is very very very early and we have a long time to wait for more screenshots for DA2. I also understand that for marketing purposes that Mike Hawke is the way to go to promote the game to as much of the intended demographic as possible. But maybe when it's closer to release Bioware you could consider giving us just one teeny tiny pic of Lady Hawke's concept art on the DA2 website? Maybe as a Christmas present  as DA 2 will be closer to release then? I know that the majority of DA's audience is male, and I understand why Mike Hawke is the icon........but maybe in the future if you could show us just one little picture of Lady Hawke's concept art that would be really really awesome. I am a girl and DA is my favorite game. If it is not possible I understand and thanks for always making a female PC option in all of your games.

Yes, but think about the mechanics of the game: there are no "exclusive" female armors or robes. You can switch Oghren's armor straight onto your human female. The ridiculous and offensive part is if the writers (and I'm not saying they will) pull a WoW, and make armor that is protective and reasonable on a guy, skimpy and foolishly small on a female, just so she looks hot. It's demeaning. It really, really is.


I love you guys. I do. But can I just point out that the writers don't make the armor models? We've got nothing to do with that. The most we can do is name an item something like, "Cuirass of Visible Female Midriffs."   Or maybe, "Heavy Dragonbone Armor That Makes Your Butt Look Big"

Yes, yes, I did mean the devs, not the writers. I tend to refer to the writers more often than not, since the writing is what I care about most, as opposed to animation, art design, and such, and I slipped here.

*sigh* Of all the things Mary Kirby can acknowledge me for...:blush:


If it's any consolation, I would more than likely write you an awesome looking, yet practical and functional, suit of female armor, if for some reason I had obtained the power to make armor entirely out of words.

I think that's enough sexism and silliness for one thread, thank you.



End of line.
