See. I dont even know if either are black. He just looks dark to me.

[NvVanity]

They could just darken Bethany's skin to being sort of "in the middle" for skin tone color.

I disagree that the Qunari were "black." Sten had a darker skin tone, but if you think about it, he was in the sun for 20 days straight in Lothering too.

Anyway, in episode 2 of the DA2 podcast, they said they rebuilt the head morph system from scratch for DA2. So it is a possibility.

Aw crap, that means we need a new toolset to create head morphs.

Not my image nor do I expect toolsets to have been used, but expect this but a thousand times worse on every elf possible.

I seem to recall a similar question being raised after the release of DA:O regarding parents and skin tones, to which Developers (I believe it was David Gaider) responded something to the effect of "We hadn't considered that, but it's a very good point and should be simple enough to do, so I'll pass it along so that we might try and accommodate it in the future". Again, I'm paraphrasing from shoddy memory, but I'm all but certain it's been discussed, favorably so, so there's a good chance it may well be added in DA2.

Those seriously don't look any darker than hispanic/mediterranean to me. I swear I'm not just trying to be contrarian. There's more to "blackness" than really dark skin.

hmmm, i dont see that one coming. besides, it doesn't really make a difference because mods will change the appearance of youre party members like in no time, and im sure therell be a black or asian bethany after a short time...

Thats assuming this "new" graphic engine can be modded, or has it been confirmed by the Dev's that we'll be able to mod?.

This.  Different skin tones does not a seperate race make.  It's a good visual indicator in some cases, yes, but there are multitudes of genetic differences that go into defining human races besides skin tone.  Right now we have human, elves, dwarves, and Quanari, none of wich are "black", whether we NEED one or not in the setting, I won't comment on.  So as far as the game world is concerned right now, if you make a PC with a dark skin complexion, he's still the same race as the lighter skinned (or even darker skinned) peeps around him.   To get back to the topic, such things can vary even in the same blood line, I'm a good couple shades darker than either my brother or sister, for example.

Although there may be no set racial presets like in Fallout 3, DA:O did have sliders that ticked each skin color. (1 for pale, 2 for fair, etc.) So, if the game read that and changed Bethany's skin color according to the tint, then it would be a small fix, IMO.

Bioware will probably keep your family white no matter what you do with Hawke. It's sort of like the movie, "The Jerk."

Good one, I saw part of that the other day.

We have seen one country/continent in Dragon Age thus far. It would be silly to say in the entire planet in their universe that there isn't any race withe dark skin tones. If Ferledon is based off of medieval Europe it would be silly to think there is no version of African, Asia, India etc.

No, it's sillier to expect that there is a version of African [sic], Asia, and India. Bioware is not bound by the fact they created an analogous world like our own. In fact, t's Bioware's choice to include them in the first place, just as much as it was Bioware's choice for Dragon Age to be influenced by fantasy or medieval European art.
