Not I...

People have no accounting for taste. Aveline is gorgeous in her own, strong, redheaded way.

Hazah, I have kin.

The dwarves are shorter and they are like 90% facial hair.



Life just isn't fair to the elves.

Elves are inferior to humans, why do you think they let humans rule them? Because they cannot rule themselves.

That is why they are shorter. Dwarves too.

I honestly thought Aveline was supposed to look plain. I imagined her as DAs answer to Brienne of Tarth from A Song of Ice and Fire (possibly with a little Jaheira, BGs tomboyish druidess, mixed in for that sweet, sweet widow-taste).

Elves are obviously tall enough. Height is overrated anyway, just look at the obvious awesomness of dwarves.

Well, yes. Halfling also became athletic rather than overweight. It's a "brand identifying" thing.

I thought that was because the Tolkien estate threatened to sue?

Halflings were very hobbit like (roundish, bare feet, preferred a quiet life) until they started taking traits from Dragonlance's kender.

Yes, I know that...

And, you know that this was long after hobbits were turned into halflings in the DnD setting and long after the Tolkien estate threatened to sue them?

Dwarves only count as 1/2 a real person.

Female dwarves worked for me in DA and I haven't actually noticed any difference in the way Varric looks from a DA:O dwarf or Fenris from a DA:O elf. Other than the general graphical upgrade.

I do now, anyway. We went through this on page 1.

If elves are taller now, I wonder why they decided to make it so.

Female dwarves look about the same.

Male dwarves - in the concept art - look at least a little more gruff if you ask me.

I get the feeing Aveline will be somewhat of a 'Brienne of Tarth' like character. Which is cool.

There are definitely some comparisons that could be drawn, though Brienne is very much all about her unrequited love and her lack of self-esteem-- Aveline's very different from that, even if she is an equally no-nonsense sort of female warrior. I think Luke's done a great job with her.

I prefer my Elves shorter; it helps to keep away those who would Mary-sue the race. Personally I prefer fantasy/Alien races to have some obvious physical “short comings” when compared to humans, too often the made up race is just humans with “cool” stuff tacked on and nothing taken away.



As for Dwarven females, I just hope get rid of the chimp arms.

Off how?

I thought the dwarves looked fine in orgins.

The females using the male rigging wasn't nice. As all races had to have the same swing animation, the arms of the shorter races were all lengthened. We had orangutan dwarves.

In order to have armors fit all the body models, the proportions on dwarfettes are slightly off. It might pass unnoticed a long time, but once your attention is called to it, it becomes obvious: The arm's length is disproportionately long, and the shoulder-to-hip ratio is also a bit off.

EDIT: Maria got it before me.
