In the PSM3 article it says that if you import you'll keep the appearance of your existing shepard, I hope thats just more bad journalism and not a real fact, because it says the customization is much more extensive than ever, and I'd rather remake my shepard's face with these new options then keep the old one

[Talthanar]

how does it make sense to be able to change appearance over the course of two games? can you wake up in the morning and say "Gee I wanna look like Ronald Lee Ermy? I think not!

Well, we have plastic surgery now-- there was a show in the paper about three years ago that apparently gave people full surgery to look like celebrities... I'd expect in the future, they could do it more effectively and safely. We can already fix the scars.

I've never done it, but assuming it's not a complete "No longer visible", we could have a doctor say "we can heal those scars for you", and Shep replies with "Whilst you're at it, could you maybe do a few touch-ups?"

IT doesn't, but the face editor has limitations, particualrly in the viewing angles. Half the time, my Shepard's cheekbones are wonky; being too far in or out, and the other half the time something happens where when Shep squints, the area right under his eyes squishes out to like a couple inches in front of his face. It's really bad and horrible to look at... the face editor needs a clean-up, and so do a bunch of Shep faces.

Also? My Shep wants a good shave.

Thing is, if you import a ME1 save, you can't do that in ME2 either. You can recreate the face in ME2 to get a code.  It's not easy, (unless you take screens of the sliders in the ME1 CC), but it can be done.  You can even go backwards w/ a ME2 to ME1 facecode converter. I just hope we can use the codes from ME2 in ME3.

some people are going to want to change hair tho or give Shep a scar

[Dante Angelo]

I hope I can edit my current Shep in ME:3. Why? because I want an Elias Kelham type beard

[KotOREffecT]

^ Yea to me the codes to edit your appearance in ME2 isn't that hard. My Sheps usually come out looking pretty similar and I just keep exiting out back and forth looking at imported sheps face and my edited sheps face until I get it perfect.

In ME3 they need to atleast let us edit our hairstyle at the most. Some people might think there is no sense in editing Sheps but really there is. Some of us just want to shave or get a new tan or maybe a new eye color since eye color can actually change over time. Or maybe make that fat face a little bit more skinny if your shep has lost some weight. All these things make for a more immersing game.

[Conquerthecity]

I feel like all my Shepards either look alike or could fit into one of the ugly Shepards threads. I'd really welcome the oppurtunity to make them better looking or different. I'd take the plastic surgery thing as story justification.

I don't think it really has to make sense in the game. You could change your appearance any time you wanted in Dragon Age 2, provided you have the mirror from the Black Emporium and it didn't change the game in any way. I think it's more like changing the color of Shepard's armor, just one more way of customizing your game.

Who cares? It's a game for christ sake. A game in which you're fighting an ancient race of machines that are bent on destroying the galaxy. And they've been doing it for seemingly forever, or at least long enough to be considered forever in my book.

They talked about customization in relation to weapons and modding weapons in game, different barrels etc.
Don't get your hopes up for your Shep donning rasta dreds and nose rings.

So don't change your Shep, if given the option.  You could've completely remade Shep's face in ME2 with an import as well.  But you didn't did you?  

But to say that it makes no sense?  Really?  This is a game - a work of fiction.  How many movies/tv shows have had cast changes or characters cut their hair/etc from season to season or sequel to sequel.  Shep died for crying out loud and came back and you're crying foul cause of some cosmetic changes?  

Really? Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaly?!

[TomY90]

The thing is though ME2 had an opportunity for it when he died but in ME3 it sounds like their is no opportunity at all for this so its logical but i can imagine they might have an opportunity to change it outside the story at the start but not sure about that one

[LTKerr]

I understand there's no reason to let us change Shepard's face (no need to get him/her spaced again) but at least let us change something! Hair, make-up, etc.

[KotOREffecT]

Really just for the hell of it they should just let us edit our Sheps at the ME1/2 info carry over screen before everything kicks off. For example, what if we want to give our Shep a scar, you know to seem like we went through the tough final battle in ME2, or any other battle prior.

Its the little things like this that make games far more immersing.

[Golden Owl]

I am hoping we can tweak our Shep's faces and hair styles...I didn't have the opportunity to recreate my Shep's face in ME2 as they no longer had the Asian base face (want only to tweak and update him, not change him outright), so really hoping I can tweak and update him in ME3.

[Gill Kaiser]

I'm guessing they meant to say you'll be able to keep you imported Shepard's appearance. IMO it wouldn't really make much sense not to let us change it.

[JustHonest]

i do not understand why you people and yes you people would want to change your sheps face. war is going to break out soon and you are worried about an eyebrow lift for ****s sake

I hope thats what they meant because to have new hairstyles and such and make it so only non imports can use them is trolling on a hideo kojima level

GTFO, just because some people like to have an even more immersing game expirience does not mean we are worried about a "brow lift" before an imminent invasion. There is not excuse for not letting us edit our hair or put a new scar on our face before the events of ME3 kick off. No excuse at all.

[JustHonest]

you had two games to do that and sheps face is going to be covered in blood anyway
