It's kind of pointless to make a canon FemShep for the last game. It should of been done sooner, though with FemShep and the character creator we can at least have a few good looking options. It's hard as hell to make a non-canon MaleShep who doesn't look imbred or mentally challenged.

Why do people care anyway. Ingame Femshep will never look like that. seems like a "hey look, something cool you'll never have" to me.

Seems like a lie to put this oversexualized hottie (all of them really) as the true Femshep in the trailer when ingame Femshep can never look like that. All ME3 has isbetter hair.


What are you on about? The blonde FemShep will be a new default (in addition to the previous one) available in game.

And again, I'll keep saying it, the "blonde hair dies out" idea is just silly. It wouldn't happen.

Trying to prove that point to the people is like trying to force panties on hookers at a billionaires convention.
Hopeless.

Personally I would have preferred FemShep #1. The one with the short black hair that sort of looks like Natalie Portman from V for Vendetta. However I am okay with Shep #5 because see reminds me more of a kickass version of Samus Aran. You know before the Other M destroy her. I also don't mind as much because Jenifer Hale did in fact voice Ms. Aran in the Metroid Prime series, so it is win win for me.

Blonde doesn't make much sense, as in the books, it's said that naturally blonde hair is all but gone, I guess Shep dyes it?


Yeah, and Ascension says that naturally blue eyes are, and I quote, "nonexistent". Guess who has blue eyes?  This guy:

So does young TIM in the Evolution comics.  And Miranda, Bailey, Conrad Verner, Juliana and Lizbeth Baynham,  Hollis Blake, Kate Bowman, Admiral Hackett, Richard L. Jenkins, Talitha.....


It strains credulity to think they're all either wearing contacts or were genetically engineered for eye-color.

Both notions are also a flat-out errors of fact that someone should have caught in editing and red-penned with extreme prejudice.

Reverse image search says.......it's a mugshot!  Which makes sense, 'cause that's what it actually looks like. Ironically, it's one of quondam beauty queen Kumari Fullbright.  She helped kidnap and torture her ex-boyfriend.

My biggest beef with the competition wasn't the blonde Shep, it was the competition itself. Never ask fans what they want because the average fans opinion is usually completely arbitrary and generic! Bioware, you're the professional game designers and concept artists, you decide what's best. If you ask the fan what they want then every game would have 4 player co-op and horde mode regardless of whether it fit or not. 

Ben Croshaw couldn't have put this point more perfectly, 

"Fans are clingy complaining dip****s who will never ever be grateful for any concession you make. The moment you cut out their shrill tremulous voices the happier you'll b
e for it".

That seems about right... But things aren't that simple is it? It's a good thing BioWare is open to suggestions, but only if it's appropriate. Fans definitely have the potential of ruining a franchise if devs listen to horrible ideas. I having nothing against blondes, but the concept feels too common. I wanted something a little more unique or at least different from what everyone is used to... Oh well.  

Yes! I still can't  believe we'll have blonde Shepard :crying:  I wanted unique strong female character instead it'll be male choseen Shepard because she is HAWT. I really don't see what's so special about her, maybe because i'm from north and pretty sick of all blondes. Sad very sad days for female gamers :crying::crying::crying::crying: but oh well it was pretty clear that bw and ea think about money and nothing else. I hope they turn Sheploo into Edward Cullen so you would know how it feels like

Now back to blonde bashing fun huhuhuh: "Think about it – this will be the first in a long time that such a
well-written, kick-ass female hero will be brought into the spotlight –
merited not for the size of her dirty pillows and the tightness of her
tramp-stamp jeans, but for her ability to dominate the battlefield,
unite humanity, and stand up in the face of intergalactic adversity. So
it breaks my heart that the mass public have gone for such the wishy
washy, Barbie faced personality vacuum that is Shep 5. The modern day world is already so much more culturally diverse than
yester-year, so why don’t future representations reflect this? Isn’t it
about time that the cliché of a blonde-haired, blue-eyed pin-up was
phased out?" hilarious :D

Wow, 28 pages and you still don't get it.  The hate for blonde women is strong in this one.

So in other words, the pic wasn't of an abused woman, but of a woman that abused a guy...

I guess it goes to show how quick people are to judge without collecting data.

Well I think that has been apparent from fibchopkin's opening post. The person clearly isn't intelligent enough, which is kind of funny seeing as they are complaining about Blonde FemShep being a brainless barbie... am sure there is some irony in there

I guess the joke ended up being on the moderator that removed the picture with the comment that it was a pic of an abused woman :P

A. ) It's a mugshot... obviously. The woman has no bruises and her hair is typical mugshot flavor.

B.) It's funny how the mods removed it without undergoing any effort whatsoever to find out what it was.  How reassuring to know that anyone can just accuse another of something and accused is automatically guilty.  Think if I report that your post contains a terrorist code ordering an attack that they'll notify the FBI and have you arrested? Only one way to find out. Posted Image

You know, the funny thing is that after all of this is said and done, it looks like it's going to be a victory for male-female equality after all.


Really? If anything, this shows that maleshep is about substance, while femshep is about apperarance, hardly a triumph for gender equality.


yeah because sheploo isn't based on a real life model or anything.


Model or not, he's still allowed to have a face that gets creased up when he scowls LIKE AN ACTUAL HUMAN FACE, unlike any of these ladies.


You realize these were just drawings, not actual in game renders?

I like how people are maoning their asses out that FemShep now looks like a barbie compleatly ignoring the fact that Sheploo is face modeled after a model. Obviously he should be face modeled after a vietnam war veterain or a randomly picked marine from Iraq. CHANGE IT BIOWARE BEACUASE I DEMAND IT!


It's funny to see how people are so butthurt. Even PCGamer posted a hilarious article against blonde Shepard a while ago:

http://www.pcgamer.c...-blonde-shepard

I't just hilarious.

Wow that is crazy. I am glad i do not read PCgamer if that is the type of writters they have. It is pretty sad how angry and anti-blonde hair the writter is. She even posts a pic of #2 which has almost the exact same face the only difference is the hair.


I know right? And she says "vote for diversity! Not the blonde!", It's funny how she mentions diversity when the fact is: of the 6 pictures, 4 have black hair, one is blonde and the other is redheaded. So yeah, blonde it's not diversity right?...

And actually they do have slightly different faces, it's just from the pictures on Facebook it's hard to tell. Still, they have very similar facial structure, with small variations on the lips, nose, and makeup (and obviously skin tone and hair).

Here you have a gif comparing closeups of #4 and #6. They loook similar, but they have differences.

@Pulletlamer

Just an FYI, the pictures are of 5 and 6, not 4 and 6. FemShep 4 was my personal choice.

Has anyone shopped aviators onto #5 yet?

Also, lol @ people who say blonde hair and blue eyes, one of the more rare things to find on a human, is boring and generic, and how Shepard should be more "diverse". (read: not white) Maybe consider what the word diverse means.

Take solace that you can still make Kumbaya Shepard as "diverse" as you want while you secretly seethe in your hilariously ironic racism.

You know, I don't see many people saying that. Also, before you start calling racism, you should leave out statements like "Kumbaya Shepard." Because that's REALLY ironic.<_<

Some facts:

1) Just because you're a girl and you don't like blondes, doesn't mean that there's not girls with other opinions.

2) Blonde is more unique than the others. In fact saying the blonde is not unique it's retarded, due to the fact that of the 6 candidates 4 have black hair.

3) It was a poll made so people voted the one they liked more. Pretty, hot or hawt, whatever you want to call it, the fact is people voted the one they liked best..

4) You don't have to play with her if you don't like, you can always make your custom Shepard. The official Femshep will be the default in-game and in the trailers/ CE cover etc.

5) You're being offensive to blonde people. If I ever meet someone like you IRL, it'll be a bad day for that person, since I have plenty of friends with blonde hair.

6) Don't generalize all female gamers and say it's a sad day for them. Just because you don't like blondes doesn't mean other girls or female gamers also don't. If anything it's a sad day for you. Which I'm happy about. =]

7) Quoting the PCGamer article just proves you're another anti-blonde yourself full of dumb stereotypes in your head. I won't even respond to the quote, it's just enough to say it doesn't make any sense and it's a mindless rant made by someone who hates blondes.

8) The fact that she is blonde doesn't mean she is less capable of being the main hero. That's just biased BS.
