The various modifications to Isabela were met with great scorn when she was first revealed. Why are the male characters a different case?

Meh. Both versions look douche.

That coming from someone whose's avatar looks like a retard means a lot.

But then, your subconscious will trick you and you'll go save the bomb guy.  Your only hope is to trick your subconscious into thinking he went the other way.

More evil than retarded now, twisted and machine.


IggyD, you have my support.  You made him look passable.  I still don't like him, but that is just me.

This is BSN where everyone's opinion counts in large amounts.

Also, did you ever consider that perhaps the retarded avatar look is intentional. You should see my pink haired female warden avatar before you call poor Aiden Cousland a retard...

Edit: fixed it for ya!

Because the people who tweaked Isabela were obviously misogynists that only care about their female companion looking good. And since Social Justice conventional thought says misandry doesn't exist due to the fact that men, as a gender, haven't been repressed due to their malehood, no one gets pissed at the double standard.

Or BSN is full of people that are equally full of hypocrisy.

Reminds me of Sev from Killzone. Just another grunt to die for the cause I suppose.

To paraphrase Ruffnut:

"Well, there was a chance I was going to use that character, but now....."

The characters I disliked most in Mass Effect 2 had tattoos.
Zaeed Massani and Subject Zero.

Which gave me the opinion that if a character in Mass Effect has tattoos, that's a warning sign that I'm not going to like them.

And oh look, what does James Vega have on his neck?

First chance I get, Garrus is going to replace him on the squad.

I also think it's too close to Kai Leng (who also appears in Mass Effect 3).
It's going to be odd that they both have tattoos on their necks.


P.S: Don't start another rabid fan debate about Zaeed with me.
I'm getting rather tired of people saying how awesome he is and how I must like him and how I'm doomed in Mass Effect because he's dead in my saved game.

I like his original look much better. This tweak makes him too "super model." I think Shepard already fills in the role with his default version.

[xassantex]

we don't know if that's what he'll look like ultimately. And until it "animates" we won't get any feeling of what he really looks like. IT's the same when you create your own Shep . When he starts moving you realize some features don't look the way you anticipated.

Maybe to some people.

I actually liked that they changed Isabela's face and proportions for Dragon Age II.

The picture of Vega in GameInformer however long ago, didn't look very detailed.  Neither did that really small picture advertising the collector's edition.

So, pretty much anything they could have come up with by now, would look much better to a number of people.

[Aoba]

Seems to me a lot of the bickering about his looks would come to a screeching hault if he just looked like the sniper from the ME3 debut trailer. Sure, he was about as generic looking as a soldier could get, but what he did made him more than just some generic soldier guy. He shot a Turian husk from inside Westminster Tower from several hundred yards away whilst everything around him gets blown the hell up. Generic soldier + doing amazing things = ULTIMATE WIN, it seems.

Anyway, I'm not going to decide Vega's "fate" simply based on his appearance. What the hell kind of person would be so shallow as to off someone simply because they don't find them attractive? *realises where she is* ... Ah. Well, that certainly explains a lot. *raises her hand* CHECK, PLEASE!

Eh, Bioware's got 7 months and a few weeks to still work on stuff. Maybe they'll take some suggestions to heart (they do say they listen to their fans, but how much, I do not know) and change his look. In the end, it's up to Bioware. They either will or they won't. I'm certainly not going to waste any sleep worrying over his final appearance. Besides, there are far worse things to be concerned with, like being unable to fast-forward through commercials during live TV. That's just unacceptable, by any standards.

[Elvis_Mazur]

What the hell? Looks worse than before :/

[Kareaux]

I like his original face. He kinda looks like a mix between a pig, something human, and a Marine from 'Avatar'. Seriously, I like him. Doesn't look like another Jacob.

It's amazing how different someone looks when you alter just a few details, no?

Great, so now Vega has gone from looking like a average guy to looking like a muscle bound redneck. I dont like it.

Oh, good! So I'm not the only who noticed that! I find it a little annoying that the "solution" for some people with Vega is to make him look more like an average, white American male. I mean, really? Grey/blue eyes? More chiseled jaw?

This is almost as bad as that guy who complained that Isabella in Dragon Age II was "too ethnic." 

*Le Sigh*

[ThatDancingTurian]

To be fair, he looks average and white regardless.

This is just my opinion here, so you're welcome to disagree, but to me he looks Hispanic. Definitely not white.

[ThatDancingTurian]

Yeah, I don't really see that at all. Maybe it's residual from when I saw him with light blue eyes and a pinkish complexion in the AAP concept image.

I never saw the original concept art. Any pics? I'm curious now.

And I don't know, to me his skin is a bit light but his facial features seem Hispanic. Especially the nose and lips. That might just be my perception considering my own family members have similar facial features as he does.

The eye color and skintone doesn't necessarily mean anything regarding his ethnicity, but remember that back then his name was also 'James Sanders' (augh, such a boring name).

[IggyD]

Funny, some folks were saying i made him look hispanic.

[Deviija]

I believe he is supposed to read as hispanic or mixed race, though I can understand if some find him looking white more than anything else.

I think the redesign is an interesting take, but I don't think it enhances anything (I only have issues with his caveman brow, flared nostrils, and severe eyes). I find Vega in general to be a very bland concept taken from the dudebro shooter handbook.

[Raanz]

Personally, I liked the original design.
