Mothers are not in charge of their spawn, why would they do that?

Children not spawn, those aren't darkspawn. And because it's still their genes.


Spawn=Children. Children=Spawn. Just another word for it.

EDIT: Dammit. Fed a troll.. That's what I get for hitting Quote before I see who said it...

The only major differences between this Qunari and the Qunari of DA:O is the fact he has horns and his facial structure is more....brutish, I guess (sort of)

Yeah, the horns are only a small detail. Next stop elves with only one difference-they have wings out of chitin.  Besides that not much will be changed:wizard:


The horns are supported by lore. Elves with wings aren't. I have nothing against the so-called 'complainers' or 'whiners' as some of their concerns are legitimate...but you are a troll.

I think many mothers would remove the horns at berth if it made the child special.


Qunari don't have families!


Where do the children come from, thin air? you need a female even if there are no families.

I wrote spawn, because that is what they're seen as, it is not their child, it is a child.

Their whole society builds around not having those instincts. Doing something like that would only weaken the stock in the long run by giving false information to the ones that are to assemble the breeding groups later.

And there isn't any prestige amongst them either, so there would be no point in making them go higher.

Hmm... if Qunari have horns now, which makes them look more like Ogres... will elves look more like Shrieks?

This is awesome. Why didn't they just start a new franchise?

Wolverine claws, more dagger-like ears, predator mouth. Oh yeah.

edit: actually those claws may be an attached weapon...

Maybe they went the other way and made shrieks look more like elves, lex Hurlocks.

Well according to you there is no point at all with the qunari as they don't care about anything. That is a very good explanation.

It always bothered me that ogres had horns while qunari did not, but I don't like them not looking the least bit like Sten and the other qunari in DA:O.

Horned qunari are special? Hmpf. Fine in theory, but I won't be surprised if every qunari in DA2 is "special" then.

All that said, the change in darkspawn look bothers me way more than this.

If he was red, I would've said he looks like Hellboy and still thought he looked awesome. Qunari for playable race!... oh too late? aw:(



Also if we're talking about the other races, I mean Varric doesn't look that much different in his concept art does he?

Good grief. So they've basically said screw continuity at this point.


How? Just because we've never seen one portion of their society does not mean that it is a retcon.

Hopefully this is the case. (or they could just leave Shrieks the way they are, I don't have a problem with the way they look on their own) Although we know they're changing elves somehow.

Again, the article clearly states that it's the naturally hornless Qunari who are special, not the horned ones.

Wouldn't be surprised if elves were given more animalistic qualities. Something like a longer more slender body and neck. Possibly sharper canines.

Btw, while I'm less then enthusiastic about the changes, it is pretty cool looking. Only good thing I can think to say really...

I was under the impression that Qunari females were the only ones with horns.



Oh well, we all know that the sudden redesign is just an excuse and Gaider's posting is just a flimsy re-lore for them to do it.



I'll be curious as to how they explain the albino darkspawn, though.



I do find it amusing that BioWare's using man!Hawke as its iconic image in order not to 'confuse' the customers, and they seem to be changing just about everything else.



On the other side, it's possible they were able to change the elves and dwarves because they'll have their own body skeletons, rigs, or whatever, and they're trying to avoid the whole "human but x" feature that plagues the demi-humans.

You do what you do for your society. Think bees or ants.

I'm not sure what to think about this redesign. I will have to see more. But Sten was one of my favorite characters, so I am quite interested in the Qunari, and I hope that Bioware treats them well. I'm not put off by the new appearance, but I would prefer them to be recognizable across the games.
