Hm, I find Thane pretty repulsive to look at (lizard grasshopper) but haven't gotten far enough to know him well. Different strokes, I guess. But just by looks? Ehh.

EDIT: I mean, I guess where Saibh is coming from, but I don't necessarily see how loving Space Lizard is easier than Short Hairy Man on a purely aesthetic level.


I thought he was pretty weird-looking at first but he won me over. He's pretty charming. I'm a sucker for a woobie though. 

Anyway all of the LIs are mostly about personality to me since I haven't seen a single model yet that blew me away on looks alone (they all magically appear more attractive to me when I get to know them). Maybe this will change with the new art style, who knows?


Lol, yeah. I mean, Alistair is my favorite but when I first saw him I was like "Who is this frat boy?" and thought he was gonna be a total douche. Sorry, dude. :P


I thought he was going to be a total player and his name just reminded me of Aleister Crowley. Wow did I get the wrong impression. And now I'm an irredeemable fangirl!

The player/douchebag impression was not helped by the +5 approval I got from giving him dirty pantloons. Poor misunderstood Ali.

You girls have it so hard. (no sarcasm) It's fairly easy to tell a male love interest at first glance.

"Oh look, a religious girl that loves god. Probably a fana-"
"Maker be praised."
"Yeah..."

"Oh look, a woman who enjoys biting the heads off puppies."
"Rawrawrawrawr"
"Yeah..."

Well...I can't particularly remember any young good-looking male party members that weren't LIs. Kasumi is literally the only female party member you cannot bone in ME, and boy, to fanboys try to rectify that. Generally that's how you tell--if they are good looking. Oghren and Sten really weren't by most standards, but Alistair and Zevran were. 

But, yeah, the sweet naive chick and the b*tchy ice queen are the staple BioWare female LIs.

EDIT: Whoops, forgot you can't actually have sex with Samara. Whatever, she's...flirtable.

I think it's pretty easy to tell a companion NPC at first glance in general, but yeah the female LIs in Origins have much more accurate first impressions. Kinda. Zevran is pretty accurate to his first impression except he stops wanting to kill you.

Didn't you here? Every woman in Mass Effect is instantly attracted to Shepard. It's like if Shepard was Varric's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson.

But that entirely depends on how half dwarves look like.

Add me to the list of folks who thought that when meeting Alistair the first time. My first thought,exactly was "Why do you have such a modern-day hair cut? Oh, I like your accent, maybe I should give you a chance.."

Oh fab, I go to sleep and this thread gets six more pages, while I wait a day for someone to actually reply!



And to add to my morning (mid-day) nagging, it has turned into an Alistair thread!

It's... not turned into an Alistair thread?

We were talking about how initial reactions to characters can change depending on how they actually are...

I bet my first impression of Varric is going to be "Your concept art was so much cooler.." but I'm hoping to be wrong :)

yea I saw that earlier screenshot of Varric on his throne thing, and I thought he kinda looked like a bloated turtle, hopefully he'll look as BAWSE as he does in his concept art.

From what we've seen - although it was blurry - while he doesn't look exactly like his concept art, he does look really rather awesome. Not only that, but Mary's given him her seal of approval and that's what matters, right?

As long as he keeps his massive man jaw he'll be cool in my book.

Nom nom nom, strong jaws. If he keeps that jaw, he'll be getting Calla's seal of approval, too.

It's not really that he needs to be younger and smoother, it's that they need to de-puff his face. It looks like he's been on medical steriods or something.

He looked skinnier in motion though. But they said they hadn't changed his appearance, so go figure.

Lighting makes a difference. I wish we had a clearer picture than the one from Gamescom. :blush:
