Great, so we will be seeing her soon. But by hot I hope you don't mean this.

Depends largely on your definition of "hot"...
Still, I don't want to see her "hotness" I want to see her and that's IT. Aren't you one of the bosses? C'moon, a cookie for you if you post a pic. We won't tell anyone ... err, I meant 

If Mike posts a screenshot outside of the proper channels, the cortex bomb goes off.

Yeah I'll throw another vote in for seeing the Lady Hawke as soon as possible. I do think there is a compromise that can be struck between having a marketable male lead and still showing some screenshots/images of the female lead.

Indeed. Hotness does, in fact, depend on your definition of hot. And by -my- definition of hot, FemHawke is capable of melting butter from across the room.

I might sound a bit... bastard here :
Suffice to say I am a chemist... and butter throughout the room... is not that hot for my standards. Hot is putting some sugar on your hand and putting sulphuric (VI) acid later, to see the extremely HOT reaction that melts your hand. If that's femHawke's example, then... I am ok with it

And what John doesn't know, kids, is that if MY cortex bomb goes off, every DA2 designer's cortex bomb goes off.
For reference, John is, in fact, a DA2 designer.

So what is her hair made of fire?

A chain reaction... clever. 
But if this means the end of Dragon Age 2's design... I am willing to... oh bother, a cookie for all BioWare devs, and you put a screenshot of femHawke! Last offer!

For me, 'hot' is an average look, like I usually make female leads look like if the option is there. Having them look like something from some tacky fantasy idea of women is pretty degrading.



It will be nice to see her when she appears, hopefully she won't be the scantily clad kind of appearance.

I'd love to see biowares take on fem hawke! ^^"

No more scantily clad than the armors in origins. We don't reall go in for the chainmail bikini 'round here.

Well I'm glad you were able to convince people that showing femHawke would be a good idea. I'm also happy that there will be no chainmail bikini's. Now if only the walk is good, and we'd be golden (show us her walk animation, please).

It's nice to see that you don't. It's really annoying, in games such as world of warcraft, to play a female warrior and tank stuff, and show half your body. It may look a bit erotic, but who in their right mind would fight in such armour?

[Mistress Tasharra]

I actually dislike the word 'hot'. Why? Because more often than not, 'hot' is not. Though, I believe he meant to say 'she is a beautiful woman' or perhaps 'she is a handsome woman'.

Whenever I here the word 'hot' in regards to a female protagonist in the fantasy genre, I think of something similar to the picture linked at the top of this page.

Mind you, Bioware is far more respectful than that, and I have a feeling Marian Hawke will be indeed attractive, but not 'hot'. I am curious to see her, even though I shall make my own.

Well that is truly awesome. Thank you ever so much! I feel vindicated.

[Ponce de Leon]

Well, the dalish leather armor's female model didn't look like it offered a lot of protection at the... belly.

But that's not exactly my point, I want femHawke! A picture I mean.

[Kryplixx]

You won't be missed. Next!

I indorse this post! Good show old chum.

[ReinaHW]

So the posters of such are kept hidden?

Some revealing armour is okay, just not the Conan kind where it's amazing that no one dies of cold in that fantasy setting.

One thing I hope to see with the female Hawke when it comes to the creation aspect is adding life to her eyes, that's something that can be unsettling in the games that have character creation can be the blank look, instead of maybe seeing a hint of life in the eyes.

And maybe a slight cheeky tone to the voice that says 'Mercy? Naw, have a sword in the gut instead'

I'm very curious on the walking and running animations for the female Hawke, it's rare to see a really good feminine walk and run set of animations, any kind of feminine animations, for a female character in games.
A few have managed it, but it's rare to see since a lot of the time the animations are still strongly male in design.

Red Dead for example didn't even bother with the multi player, instead even the few female skins were all male in terms of movement, very weird to see.
Here's hoping the female animations will really fit the female Hawke and any female companions this time.

the funny thing is maybe is wiser to make marian hawke "playboy cover" hot, because there may be as many males playing female hawke's than females themselves:lol:

[jlb524]

I for one don't care what she looks like...I'm just glad she exists at this point, and they will use her in some stuff.

Given one of my lines of unpaid work, I've seen plenty of attractive women, and as a result I'm one who's not easily impressed.

You do get a +1 for the Peter Gunn reference nonetheless
