@LPPrince Well, then why doesn't Sheploo look like he's in his 20's? They're the same character.

Because he's modelled after Mark Vanderloo who's....*checks age*

43 as of right now.

[Daryst]

Number one all the way. I just hope that you will be able to create these yourselves as well. Unlike in DAII. Where you got the default, but unable too modify it or create something similair.

 I find it kinda silly that people are complaining about how old she looks...  
Yes maybe she should also look older... but she's also supposed to be dead 

Correction. Undead and Reanimated.

Wishing she looked older and more hardened too. She's not a cadet after all...

Yeah exactly, she needs to look like a person of authourity.
In my oppinion the best fictional starship captain is Captain Janeway of Star Trek Voyager.



But I figure Bioware would want femshep to be a tad more attractive.  So who looks like Janeway but is more attractive, but still has that look of authority... Gillian Anderson.

So this is my mock-up

[LPPrince]

Janeway looks too old for the part, to be honest. Maybe that's just me though.

This is absolutely disappointing.

Not only do ALL the choices look like 17 years old supermodels, and NOT experienced marines, like FemShep is, but it is absolutely degrading and just sad that the appearance of FemShep is put to the vote.

Here I thought things were looking up when it was announced that FemShep would get an own trailer and would be on the boxart...but apparently Femshep will not finally be acknowledged as an equal counterpart to MaleShep, but is thrown to the mercy of the fans and degraded to a stupid beautycontest to determine who is the "hottest spacebabe".

Seriously Bioware? You let the people decide who declared Jack too ugly? Ashley too manly? The people who create mods to show more cleavage on the female characters? The people who altered Miranda's face because it wasn't pretty enough for them?

Is that really the direction you want ot take? Why can't you design an equal to MaleShep? A seasoned, experienced female Soldier and present to us YOUR design, and then STAND TO IT.
Let the haters rant, but PLEASE don't stoop down to this levela and don't make FemShep a friggin Fanservice for those who want to look at a hot woman when playing the game.

This.
I wouldn't mind so much if they let the fans decide what the male Shepard should look like in ME3, too. That wouldn't make it less stupid but at least equal.
Or how about Vega? Personally I don't find either of them attractive. But I never much cared for Sheploo since my canon Shep is female anyway. Plus I can't romance myself (=Shep), so what does it matter? As long as he's not an eye-sore, it's fine.
Also I understand that since most men play Sheploo he better not look like Kaidan but tough and a little mean.
Vega on the other hand is very likely going to be a romance option. So I actually do mind what he looks like. Because, yes, attractive characters sell better. No denying that.
We're all superficial to some extent. BUT these femShep design are just a bit too much. They are better fits for an anime style RPG than a realistic looking game such as ME.
That's what disappoints me the most.

I find it funny how people assume great looking women can't fight or they are inferior in any way. That an attractive woman can't possibly fire a gun or fire it accuratley or that she could not ever be someone with charisma enough to lead a team into battle. Being attractive actually has more of positive influence of forming groups and peoples following, being good looking physically has no affect on ones ability to fight.

I don't think anyone has said that. However, people have disagreed on what is a good-looking woman, which is fairly common. Also, by now Shepard is supposed to be in her early thirties. These models are not, which is the main problem to a lot of people. Thirty-something woman can easily be attractive, but the way to make her look attractive is not to cut ten years off her age.

Also this.
Let cover femShep look good. But let her look like a real person, too. A mature real person.
I modeled my canon Shep to be pretty in a normal sort of way. The way an actual person might look like (except for the purple eyes *g*).
Then again I'm a woman myself and don't need my femShep to look like a porn star to spice up the game.

To the first part:  Again, the whole argument boils down to this:  If someone doesn't want a space babe don't pick the new Femshep preset.  Femshep has been missing a very good looking model face akin to Sheploo.  Mass Effect 1 and 2 have plently of customization for unnatrictive/plain Jane faces.  The argument against pretty Femsheps seems to be more about getting what someone personally wants and believes, over what many want and being different than the rest of the pack.  Call it fanservice or whatever, its something people have been asking for and having the option to play a "space babe" doesn't effect the option not to in this case.  So there shouldn't be a problem.

I agree with the second part, but like I said before:  Lore wise people in Mass Effect are able to choose what their kids will generally look like, live to 150+ years and gene therapy is becomming increasing common (mandatory for Alliance service adding strength, endurance etc).  The fact is, humans by that time, even in reality, will probably look 20-30 up into there 50s, 60s and beyond.  Hey it was even in the news recently that some scientist(s) I think were predicting the first person to live for 150 years is already born and the first person to live to 1000 will be born in the next 30-50 years.  With enough genetic research and advancement, there might be a lot of young, "pretty people" in the future.

This, it's said in Mass effect revelation. 40 years old but looks 30. For a woman at least.

The aging process is much longer in Mass Effect. Miranda has 35 years, but it is very young in this universe, it's as if she was 25.

And the average of women in mass effect who want babies waiting 40 years.

But they're the same character. I don't care who Sheploo is modelled after. He looks his age, not some we all look younger for longer in the future business.

Also #2, To all the people wishing she looked older, don't forget Humans can live up until 150, so there is no telling how old she is exactly. She could be anywhere from 25 - 40 thanks to medical science.

You talking about Shepard? Cause Shepard has a set age. 29 in ME1, 31 in ME2, 32 in ME3(if I have the timeline correct).

Well yeah, I knew her roundabout age. I am just saying because of the the medical advancements you couldn't tell if she was 25 or 40 if you were to meet her. People age differently which is why she looks young.

This.

But...
*Sigh*I just want this poll to over and done with.Let it be set in stone already!!!

It's already set in stone basically. In the last 24 hours there's been hardly any change in the % numbers and there's no "event" that can change them around like politics.   There's also no competition here or emotional investment like voting for game of the year etc.  It's 90% likely Femshep 5 comes out on top, unless there's some huge turn around in fan opinion that Femshep 5 sucks and the others are better, but there's not enough depth to the debate for that to happen.  It's a simple "choose what you like best" like choosing an ice cream flavour.

If Sheploo looks like he's 30 something...why would Femshep look like she's 19?

I think 4 is the most bad**** Femshep ever! She looks ready to kick some reaper tail. The others are good but number 4 is the best.

Personally, at least in game, I think he looks younger than his real life age.

And whether they're the same character or not, a man and a woman HOPEFULLY won't look the same, so there will be variances. Which is why I'm hoping FemShep keeps the youthful appearance rather than looking older.

Then again, customizing Shepard can make him/her look young, old, asian, black, whatever. So its just discussion over the default really.

Christ almighty all this furor over a blonde Shepard. Knowing Bioware they might not even do it now.

Well, we're not applying real life things here. We already know that humans remain looking youthful much longer than in today's world. So effectively, a 32 year old would look like someone in their early twenties.

This is sort've explained in the novels, I believe.

It is - though they've never reflected this in the actual games :/  Personally I hope they go with a slightly more hardened looking Shepard like Nyoko's photoshop (I've put it in my avatar), at least to stay consistent with the "train that's already left" to paraphrase yourself

You get points for paraphrasing me.

[LPPrince]

I think my problem with #4 is that the hair looks unwieldy. That and the red streak doesn't look like something a soldier would have.

Then again, I'm totally okay with Ash's new hairstyle. Then AGAIN, none of her hair is actually over her face, once someone checked.

Ok, but it's not about how young humans might look in the future, it's about how their faces come across to us players who live right now in times of wrinkles. You can't help thinking "Gee, she looks like a teenager" and find that inappropriate. Because it simply violates what we associate with age appropriate and seasoned soldier looks.
I believe that in this case it's more important than sci-fi age realism. There are only humanoid aliens for that same reason.

I don't think its so much of a fuss now as its just people supporting their opinions and the opinions of others while keeping it civil.

Personally, I like this thread. Didn't know so many would support Strawberry Blondie.

3 or 5. I'm going more for 5 though.
