As stated in the title, has anybody else felt like they were a bit punished for not using the Mark Vanderloo face, and instead making their own custom MaleShep face? I certainly did.

• Very limited facial structure customization. No matter what you do, it never comes out looking  right. There is always some point in time where the light/shadows makes you look like an axe murderer, or you go cross-eyed. I'm talking about actually making a custom MaleShep without a save editor.
  
  
• Poor resolution facial textures/detail, even on the PC (Go look at the Sheploo face, then back at a custom face)
  
  
• Extremely limited hair choices. Some of them look a thousand times better in ME1 than they did in ME2 (Take a good, hard, look at the "formal spikes" style in ME1 [Especially the back] then go look at the same style in ME2, it has clipping, and what's up with the back? ) I'm not saying Shepard should have long, flowing Fabio hair, he's a soldier. However, at least fix up the ones we have!
  
  
• You customize the mouth, you run the risk of getting janky teeth.

These are just some of the things I could think of. Anyone else?

No, I go custom.

[Trinity66]

No problem for femsheps, so no problem for me.

This. I'd feel more punished by using the Sheploo face.

[Mr. Gogeta34]

Not as much care is allowed to go into custom Shepard... but I still prefer my Shep over Sheploo... hands down.

You mean no problem besides animations based on male Shepard, right?

I don't know that "punished" is the right word for it. I just suck at character creators and my Shepard always come out looking like a wax sculpture that sat out in the sun too long, after being run over by a truck.

[Ghost-621]

I strongly prefer my custom face over Sheploo. I'm sorry if I gave the opposite impression..

IMO, FemSheps don't really seem to have a problem makinga good looking custom face, though.

[adonfraz]

Try to get better. It took me 30 minutes to make a good-looking Shep. Fem-Sheps are easier since they have decent looking presets.

By punished, I mean it's painfully obvious how little effort/care was given, and how it kinda seems to be pushing the Sheploo face. As for the "wax sculpture" part...that's just part of having a custom MaleShep.

[Matchy Pointy]

Not at all.

[Arxduke]

I always use Sheploo face. Works perfectly for me. I don't like hardly any custom faces, Sheploo has the perfect mood for me. I got attached to him my first run through ME.

[Ajaxto]

Punished? That sounds harsh. I for one prefer the Sheploo face. But I don't think custom is that bad. I only have one custom now that I think about it compared to my 4 Sheploo's ...

Same here.  My few attempts at making custom faces resulted in monstrosities that could shatter mirrors at fifty feet.

[Xarathox]

Wish my Xbox didn't decide to RRoD on me recently. I'd go see how close I could get to making a Shopord.

Well, I can intellectually understand what you're saying, but I wish it were true for me. Even in games regarded as having a robust character creator (e.g. Saint's Row 2) my characters come out looking like mutant Mr. Potatoheads. I just have no eye for proportion and symmetry in a human face, I guess. Well I do, I mean I can recognize good looking people, I just can't recreate them by hand.

I was thinking the same thing? Was harsh. It's more that the devs got a little lazy with the customs? They spent a lot of effort on Mark Vanderloo and building him in pixels to make Sheploo, and it paid off. :wub:

[subby19]

I love my maleshep, however I haven't seen many others I like nor have I been able to make another I really like. I also don't really like sheploo. About 60-70% of my playtroughs are femshep, mostly because of this.

[Praetor Knight]

I guess I do OK with my attempts.

This is one of mine from ME1, and it was not too bad in ME2 with the animations, mostly eye-lid flutter and neck peeking through the armor.



And don't mind the date, I have an old camera that was reset when I took the pic.

[Goldbullet]

Yeah lol. I suck at customizing. Spend like 3 hours tying to get the right face, narrow it down to like 4 faces, cant decide, then I re-visit Sheploo, and notice hw has more detail and is just overall more studly then the ones I made. So I just say screw it. So I just go default. Which I'm ok with. Sheploo has the military face I want anyway.

[KingNothing125]

I prefer my 4 custom Sheps. A couple of them look a little dorky, and no one is begging me for any of their face codes, but they look like real people and not some model, which is a plus in my book.

[Prince of Kemet]

Nope, I NEVER use dt shep.

[PlumPaul93]

Yeah custom shepards are hard to make that are decent imo. The only thing I don't like about sheploo is eye color. If I could change that to match mine (brown) I would be perfectly fine with sheploo. I use sheploo only because I suck at creating shepards.

That's cute:) I was curious how long it was going to be before someone made the "hurr durr get bettar" comment. By the way, that site went down quite a while ago.
