It goes back beyond that, even to toys. As a 4 year old at nursery school in the early 70s, I remember being very agrieved that I wasn't allowed to play some plastic boats because they were "for boys." I liked stuffed animals but hated dolls, and baby dolls in particular. My mother knew not to give me those.

I was, however, fascinated by my (male) friend's Action Men (that's the UK name for GI Joe, if you're American) and his Action comics.

I did like horses, but more for the going fast and jumping stuff angle than anything. I also followed racing, kept a form book and had my mother put bets on for me on the big races.

I was very attracted to games when they first started to appear - my first encounters were arcade Space Invaders and Frogger and the like. It was natural that I'd end up with my own computer as soon as they became affordable.

Aside from that, I'm not sure what the stereotypical female hobbies are. Drinking chardonnay with your girlfriends? Shoe shopping? I've never been interested in such things. I'd say my interests are games, riding rollercoasters and going to the gym.

For all we know, Varric might just be exaggerating. ;)

In all seriousness, I'm a little disappointed the breasts are so large, but I don't particularly care enough to really argue either side.


*toasts*:wizard:

I always wondered how my chick could swing her sword with her huge boobs in the way. lol

Maybe the boobs are magical and can transform.

There are many different shapes of female bodies and as a rule I'm not picky. A woman can have a slim or a generous figure and still be feminine and beautiful. It does however have to be proportional to look natural, and I really prefer natural.

A woman can have large breasts if she has a generous figure and the hips to match them and this can look great, but if a woman has a slim body, very little hips and then sport large sized breasts then it just screams silicone, because that's not natural. That type of "pornstar" body, that no one is born with in real life, has no business as role model in a computer game.

I am all for it if Bioware wants to have heroines with large breasts, but then give her the body and the hips to match it! And in the case of female warriors, why not add in a bit of muscles too.

I know the rule today is that female heroines should be as strong as the men but still look dainty, and that female gamers are probably at least as guilty as men in perpetuating this odd idea. I want to see a really strong woman in the game that looks strong too.

The magic of the boobs extends to the bra for convenience

Boob magic is even more rare than blood magic

There was this Boob Mage called P'ela An'Dson and she once crushed an entire army with her boobs

Please don't make light of serious and horrible tragedies

The only way I can accept female warriors/warrior-like characters in fiction, no matter if it's games or tv-series, that can kick ass against men five times their size and still be small (with or without giant breasts) is if they've got some supernatural powers to aid them. Otherwise it just looks silly.

So yes. Give female Hawke some muscles, too. Make her look realistic.

Bioware has lost their edge. Screw the story, let's put all the female characters in sexy jumpsuits and go into vacuums with exposed cleavage.

I just talked with the doctor. He said the horse is dead. He even said that somebody have been kicking it thousands of times long after it died. That is just bizarre.

I'm sorry, I just gotta say it...YAY! Female PCs will have awesome boobs! FINALLY! I'm a long-time player of RPGs and the one thing that always bothered me the most was how, no matter how much tweaking was done(Not counting all the awesome mods out there obviously), a female pc is always just a skinnier version of the male model with two large lumps on their chest that are supposed to represent a pair of breasts.This just never cut it for me. Neither did the hyper-sexualization of the female form in other games (*cough*DOA*cough*).

But now, I have found  a happy medium.Thank you Bioware for Lady Hawke's boobs!

I know making this statement may alienate me from my fellow girl-gamers, but it had to be said YAY FOR BOOBS! :D

Do not worry most female gamers do not care THAT much about the size of breasts on a fictional person.
We see only a minority of gamers in general on these forums.Do not be scared by their bark!

Horse had boobs, so no, it's not.

I completely agree with OP:)

In this particular thread it has been primarily males who are against the ridiculous size of the female characters breasts, not females.

It begs the question. Who is Bioware making these games for?
1. Loyal fans/Artsy or Enlightened or Mature gamers who demand a good story and characterization
2. The lowest common denominator who just want BLOOD, GORE & BOOBIES!

You can make money either way but the 2nd method is easier

How are they mutually exclusive?  Are you saying girls with big boobs can't be interesting?

SO if I say I am a woman and you read it....that makes me a woman correct?
At least by your logic?:D

That's simply not true.

edit: (could have been misinterpreted) The majority of people of both sexes would like to see femhawke with a more athletic build.

Not at all. But considering the charecter and her body shape the boobs seem to only be there for the purpose of fanservice. Now if she were heavily built or fat it wouldn't be a problem but she has too much a male fantasy physique right now. It's like if Jack has a huge chest. My post also referred to the presentation changes in ME 2

This whole argument of realistic and unrealistic breast size in games reminds me of a picture that was posted up here awhile back

There's a lot of unrealistic features in many games with both character models and armour.

IF they go without boob armor and what not women will complain they are playing are forced to play as a man.
Breasts are required to be seen as to notify a female player they are indeed playing a female.
