Mr. Godwin makes an appearance. Can we all agree that people have different tastes and leave it at that?


Hey, it would happen sooner or later. I just thought we'd discredit this thoroughly pointless debate sooner rather than later.

I was just thinking how astonishing it was that THIS is the thread that lead to that. Amazing.

Mr. Godwin is wise. :wizard:

Can this thread just die so that we can have a proper Isabela support thread?

I was just thinking of politely asking Stanley Woo to allow a positive Isabela support thread to be created. 

The "Internet Male" quotient is way too high in this thread to bring it back to constructive discussion.


Hey now, i am a Man and i am trying to deter all these fools :P


Oh, I'm not talking about all guys...Internet Males are a very specific phenomenon.  It's nothing personal.  Image IPB


So everyone that dares criticize a blatantly ugly character has to be a loser doing it for attention? What about Internet Females who seem to take it as a personal insult whenever there is a remotely attractive female character in a game? Lol. Bunch of sexist hypocrites. :P


LOL. Keep telling yourself that, honey. :lol:



Sorry Yukidama but that its the true


Sorry, but it's absolutely not true and utter BS. It's not a personal insult that attractive female characters exist. Pretty women don't make me angry. People don't have to find Isabela attractive nor have to want to romance her. What does cause the irritation is people valuing a woman's worth based on their perception on whether or not she's attractive to them or her sexuality and then acting like they're so victimized and insulted for being called out on their misogyny.

It is different to say "She is not attractive to me" than to say "She is fugly and they need to totally redo her until she looks like what I and people like me find hot  because it is gross for her to look any different."

We do not wish for "sunshine and daisies", we wish for intelligent arguments.
Alas, that is too much to be asked on a game forum, the Internet overall.


With the amount of info at hand what is there to discuss intelligently? All there is some tidbits from the devs and some screenshots and video.. Plus it's not like this thread in particular was about anything besides the retcon on Isabela's looks.. It didn't get taken over..

I don't dare tread into the Talimancer threads, I know what it's all about so I just ignore em, start a thread that intelligently discusses Isabela, this one is simply about Bioware's visual redesign.. *shrug*

More on topic, I just spent 5 mins redesigning Isabela as well, here's mine, god I'm bored..

Image IPB

Lol, if only Bioware would hire you like when Blizzard hired Mr. Jack to help redesign the Zerg.

Eh, a long-shot question at David Gaider that would probably be drowned in the sea of face morph debates, but...



If she's the same Isabela from Origins does that mean an imported save game would "note" her meeting with the Warden and his companions (and how exactly did it proceed, he-he) or does she suddenly get amnesia/meeting retconned, etc.? In short, would there be any story continuity from her Origins appearance?

Sorry, but you either think that Isabela is a hideous beast or you are jealous of all beautiful video game wimmenz.  This thread has declared that there is no inbetween.  Image IPB

LOL, oh. Nope, not really much of a resemblance. I look a lot more like my dad's side of the family but with my mom's coloring.

God forbid I look like Isabela, I'd be feeling really crappy about myself right about now. Though I imagine Isabela would laugh her ass off and continue on with her bad self.

This is only true if your definition of 'remotely attractive' is 'largely uncovered by clothing and with boobs that are bigger than her head.' If that's the case, then yeah, you're completely correct, I suppose.


Unless she happens to be a skan.. I'm sorry, "sexually empowered female" like Isabela. Then said Internet Females jump to her defense for some reason, in spite of the fact that she's prancing about in a mini-skirt and a thong. :P

And yet your avatar is a well endowed girl in a nightie..

Games are to play out fantasies, end of story, if they made every game with compltely normal people doing normal things (oh wait they do, the sims, lol) then the gaming industry would die.. Why do you think they made Jacob in ME2 about the most ripped mofo ever, because women liked it..

I like that. Without nuance, one doesn't have to think so much. Observe:

DURR SHE SO FUGLY

And suddenly it all makes sense.

I never said the romance was good, hehe, I just meant that they molded Jacob's exterior into a female's ideal of male beauty..

It is probably a question of taste, but to me the DA:O Isabela ('s face) looked better. That's the point where I say that I don't understand why ressources and time are wasted for makeovers like this. Was this anywhere near important?

She looks like a cool character, the design is funky. Everyone who spazzed out about her not being a white chick needs to delete their accounts.

Nowhere did I ever say that it was wrong for a character to have her chest showing, or for her to be wearing a miniskirt with her cheeks hanging out. If that's what she wants to wear, fine. Appreciation of female bodies is not the issue here as much as saying that her worth is solely based on her body and face being up to their standards.

And the woman in my icon happens to be a dwarf as well, I can only imagine the vitriol she'd get if she were an LI.
