Waah Isabel looks different, waaah the Darkspawn look like skeletor instead of generic orcs, waaah. Guess what in Star trek the original Klingons looked like regular dudes. a Little revisionist style isnt a bad thing

no the darkspawn look and act like the Putties from power rangers, and Flemith looks like rita repulsa



also no, the klingons had minor brow ridges in some of the original series, it was just a LOT of money to pay for that ****, whereas in the 80s when TNG came out, it was not.

People like to complain, it makes them feel important.

Can't be that bad, if I had to guess I'd say you're a fan based on your ability to belt out references and comparisons to specific characters.

GgazElite is just a troll who actually believes his/her own bull****. It's very sad.

They love to complain. Had they not changed, chances are people would've complained about too much of the same.

Are you saying Power Rangers was not made of awesome? Them's fightin words!

And on the topic of Klingons, Voltair said it best:
"What is with the Klingons? Remember in the day?/
They looked like Puerto Ricans And they dressed in gold lamme/
Now they look like Heavy Metal Rockers from The Dead/
With leather pants and frizzy hair and lobsters on their heads/"
--- USS Make Sh*t Up

Seriously, though, they changed the art style, it all fits together more, in my opinion.
The Darkspawn redesign has grown on me, they more closely resemble their stock race, which makes them more unsettling. Especially the Emissary that shows up in the demo. That thing was creepy lookin.

I'm not too unhappy with the updated models. Some things do bother me, though. Not really the art style, mostly it's face models.

Some people dislike the changes for very specific reasons and are reasonable about it, some people aren't and like to irritate people who obviously embrace the changes.

no u didnt, honestly the only model where i went "hmm i prefered the original" was the ogre, and honestly i can deal with that, everything else looks either as good, (Darkspawn) or spectacularly better (armor, weapons)

It's not so much they've changed, so much as they look a bit stupid now, to many people.



Honestly, can some folks just not prefer how the Hurlocks used to look? Me, I more miss the Genlocks. Poor little guys.

As seen in the screenshot above, no they didn't. In fact, the reason the Klingons got used more than Romulans back then, despite the writers thinking Romulans were more interesting, is because of the cost of the prosthetic ears for Romulans, while all they needed for Klingons was some makeup for the faintly racist skintone. 

My only issue with the new models is that all the Hurlocks I've seen so far have pretty much the same model; some variety would be nice, especially with all the close-ups in the demo... but hardly an issue to shout about, as far as I'm concerned.

Based on the demo, certainly, the faces aren't good.

I also think the running animations are poor, but they're bad enough that I'm confident they'll be better in the full game.  BioWare's better than that.

I really dislike the new darkspawn design, they look a little too goofy for my tastes, and much less threatening. The old darkspawn were very creepy, but I'm sure the new model is much easier to produce on the console, and probably looks much better.

The only beef I have with the news models is the fact that the Darkspawn no longer have full fanged mandibles, and thus look worse than the original.

Change for the better wouldn't provoke refusal. Change for the worse does.

Which of these looks like the "upgraded" model?

Picture 1 or Picture 2
