Retconning the Qunari was completely unnecessary. It's like saying a culture and its people can't be fascinating without some weird "edgy" malformation.

It was totally necessary. The Qunari were designed rather poorly. Qunari = Tall Humans, Dwarfs = Short Humans, Elves = Pre-Teenage Humans. They all looked like humans of different sizes as if humanity has only one height. Now the Qunari have a very distinctive look to them, one that's great and ties into the lore of Qunari becoming Ogres rather well.

As for the retconning...I like to belief that Sten's human but since he's a follower of the Qun he's a Qunari. Even an elf can be a Qunari, remember.

Their character design is probably the best thing in the game for me. They look awesome.

Original Sten might be half breed.

Qunari does look awsome

the only problem imo is they all look the same
they should be more diverse like other races

[Deylar]

When I first saw the Qunari I was very confused because I had remembered Sten. I never understood if this was the real design of the Qunari or a change.
The dailish looked weird and very...er..creepy.

[damnsalvation]

Changing the Qunari: Just one of the many stupid and unnecessary changes that make this the worst sequel since Rock 'n Roll High School 2.

[Cless Godhard]

I like the new Qunari, its just a shame that we might not get them in our party.

[Nitramme]

Qunari have a badass look omg

[Whyp_2]

I can't wait to beat the sh*t out of the qunari in DA II

all i see is a social engineer's wet dream

Well, its more philosophical.

Someone meditated in the desert on the failings of society, he saw what was missing in the minds of the people, even if they did not.

Then, the key points within this society

"No one is bound by the Qu."

The way of the Qu is a choice. So it is not a dream, it is a choice. If the followers of the Qu did not want to be apart of the Qu, they wouldn't.

Human soceties can't work like that, because humans are bat **** insane and lack discipline to get it working.

Plus, all of our leaders are corrupt now adays. So yeah

DA:O Sten is a Qunari. To quote the wiki about Qunari and horns:

'Some are born without them, but it is not considered a defect—on the contrary, those born without  horns are considered special, as they are meant for a special role in  qunari society such as a Ben-Hassrath or an envoy to the other races. Sten, as a soldier of the Beresaad, falls into this category. It is not uncommon for qunari who betray their beliefs to remove their own horns (as in the case of Armaas), though the reason for this act is not yet clear.'

Never say never! There's always DLC. Maybe Bioware will surprise us.

What isn't?

Really liking the new Qunari visual style in DA2, the Arishok is one of the more graphically impressive character models in the game.

[leeboi2]

I think they're awesome, the Arishok is bad ass! I wanna see Sten in the new style, I know he won't have horns, but he'll still be buffer and stuff

True, although the Qunari that you're seeing in Kirkwall (aside from the Arishok and other named Qunari) all looking the same is a pretty good representation of their homogenous society.  They are all simply pieces of the whole, and as such individual diversity is anathema.  

[Krimson_Wolf]

I was told from BW that their would be the horned Qunari and then some like Sten from the first game. But all I've seen are the horned Qunari. Why is that?

[Draguling]

So, when did they grow horns?

[Lithuasil]

Actually, the true qunari might have had horns all along - it is heavily hinted that the Qun accepts and welcomes converts, so Sten (which is basically a qunari sergeant) might have just been a burly human that chose to embrace the qun, all along.
