Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anyone's complaining about the hair textures used, mostly just the wonky hair models that don't look anything like their ME1/ME2 counterparts.

You're probably right. The complaints are so varied and many, I'm having trouble keeping them straight.

In regards to makeup, honestly, I probably would have liked a more natural Commander Shepard...but I had a really hard time making one in *this game* that I liked without it. ME3 compounded this problem by a thousand. Limitations of the character creator. I want to like how my character looks and animates. Especially when the main NPCs are so much more realistic than the custom settings, I wanted my Commander to look unique from random nightclub dancer. So why the crap not? I'm a goth chick at heart. *Hand wave* mass effect field stasis, yada yada, spectre brand-makeup yada. Voila. Totally feasible. About as feasible as Samara's cleavage.

I never understood that about Bioware CC - why is it so limited. I agrivated when you are trying to be creative with an appearence... like you said just  hand wave it and boom. Like long hair on my male Shep he would feel more like me  if could have him a hair style that more like mine and just the beard. I know its  "Shepards a solider" meh are in the future ... wing it.  If people don't want a shepard long hair don't make one.

No, I quite like the improvement with hair in ME3 although I do feel that some of the styles lost something in translation. Not a bad change, just a different vibe. It worked out for me because I would not have considered the classic hair in previous games (too long), but for ME3, it just felt progressive and fit my character well. I like how it gave the sense that time marched on.

And I'm actually on my third playthrough, taking different squadmates on missions and listening to different reactions. =p I still don't like the last ten minutes, but the IT, true or not, has taken out a lot of the sting so I can focus on how awesome the rest of the game is. I paid $80 and want to get my money's worth before whatever "clarity" comes along to drive the final nail in the coffin (or hit it out of the ballpark). 

"Any last words?"

Whoohoo, the wonderful and amazing Shenzi offered to get some pics of my Shepards in ME3!  I am so excited.



I'm pleased with how Delta came out in ME3.  I made a couple of tweaks but nothing too serious.  She does look pale as a ghost these days, though.



And Jennie.  Jennie had the long classy hair in ME2, but I didn't like how it changed for ME3 so she started pulling it back.

How can I see that smile and put her through that ending again?[smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/crying.png[/smilie]

 

THIS. 

I told my hubby last night: "Okay, this is the worst part:"

Kyrie NEVER cries. Never never never. And then, saying goodbye to Kaidan, she almost does. she almost loses it, and that goodbye totally killed me. this may be the true end, and they never got enough time.

and now i don't even know what happend to them! the 'end' of the game is totally inconclusive. i can't let it go because it's not *done.* i can't believe kaidan was really on the normandy in his civvies at the end - clearly that's a lie/dream/kyrie's wish for him/a hallucination. so i have no idea if they lived or died.

Shepard made her friends promise to meet her at the other end of the battlefield, and i don't know if she can keep that promise or if they can. it's not DONE. how do you let that go? if i do, i'm pretty much turning my back on the whole series and shep and all her friends. and if there's the remotest chance this could end well, i just can't give up on them.

ugh, yeah, i'm a big sucker of a fangirl. it's pathetic.

Liraelx wrote...

And I have a question for you all, how do you decide if/ when to give your characters noticible make up?

 

okay, cosmetic question. something less painful

I give Kyrie the LEAST amount of makeup possible without making her look like a mutant. as i mentioned somewhere a while back, the eyelash mesh sticks out of the lids at a slightly off angle, so unless you have some darker color on the lid (either by dark skin tone or some makeup) it looks very strange. since kyrie is the ghostly white complexion, i use the 'default' liner - 50% scalar brown shadow. in me3 i ... i think i left it at that, but it's now just a general shadow that almost doesn't show up. took me a while to get used to, but it's all good. again, no gloss, just enough blush to make her cheeks look naturally rosy, minimal eye makeup. in my head, she pretty much never wears makeup. i figure she doesn't have time for me, i mean, me, i wear mascara only and i'm not out shooting krogan all day. i mean, at least not MOST days...



she still looks good. i do like that shorter cut on her. but yeah, the graphics shift is really harder for me to get over from me2 to me3 than from 1 to 2.

The hair meshes [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/angry.png[/smilie]
It's the reason I can't make a Shep I'm happy with through all three games, there's no continuity in shape, and that ruins facial proportions 95% of the time.

 

This. Kyrie actually has something between a square face-shape and a heart face shape, depending on angle. she has a bit of a small chin compared to her square jaw. the bob of me1 fit it PERFECTLY. me2 bob was a little odd to me - too heavy, almost. but i got used to it and it worked. but the one in me3 is changed again, and i had to adjust face to compensate. i really wish i could send my hairstylist to the devs and have her design styles for them. she's a genius. ehhhyeah. that's my girly wish right there.

I even had a femshep on the PS3 version of ME 2...that I brought over to pc but have decided NOT to import because I don't like how she looks when imported into 3...her name was Marissa.

Also...I'm gonna comment here...@ Shenzi..your Melissa n Kate Shepard's are both AWESOME and pretty as hell...sorry, I didn't comment on them before but there are so MANY AWESOME sheps around ehre it's hard to comment on them all.  <3

Yes! And the scene in the same film where Leeloo puts the goggle things over her eyes, *zzzt*, and she has perfect eye makeup. Do. Want. Like you, if I have to choose between makeup and sleep, it's sleep every time.

Aki has the dark eyeshadow in ME1 & 2 just because she doesn't look "right" without it, but myself I was pleased that it was dialed down in 3, I always imagined she wouldn't have time for a lot of primping. Although, with the stress she goes through, she must have a killer concealer to not have visible bags under her eyes...

Re. my Shepard being like me...I think Aki is best described as someone I would aspire to be in the situations she faces. I would fall apart like wet tissue paper at even the hint of something as terrible as the Reapers. In the looks department she is absolutely nothing like me - I like the Oriental archetype, but it's not mine. Typically pale English person, I am.

Just because I like it...

RE: Make up

I just put Make up on Kallen because it was an option that made her look great. saw you could put black lipstick on femshep and I chose it. It soon became par of her mystique to he Batarians

Missed quite a bit of discussion it seems. I can't be bothered to go find quotes so I'll just answer what I can remember.

Is my Shepard an extension of me? No, not at all. I see Hrist as her own person. She's not me, and I don't want her to be me. Being a male it's much easier for me to disconnect from the character and see her as a unique person by being a different gender from my own. I don't want to play a game as me. I want to experience the story from the perspective of the character who's in it, like you would with a film, or a book. Hrist has her own personality and reasons for doing what she does, and it makes the game so much more interesting because of it. I get to see what she does, rather than deciding what I would do.

I used to mainly play JRPGs where the idea of a character creator is pretty much non existent. Any game I played before Mass Effect  with a character, I would either use the default, or make some generic looking male character. Since Mass Effect and femshep, if there's a CC in the game I make a female character. I just find it more interesting and as I said above, I can disconnect from the character much more easily and see them as their own person rather than me, or my avatar.

Make-up on Shepard? Hrist has the lightest colour of blush as I think it adds some colour to her complexion and gives her face a bit more detail. She has the dark eyeliner for the same reason a lot of people have said; it makes the eyes look much better in ME1 & 2. Lastly she has the glossy lipstick for no other reason than I thought it looked better on her than the plain lips.

Going through ME3 again? I've started a second playthrough with Hrist, but I can't really say I'm that enthusiastic about playing the game again with her, knowing what lies at the end of the road. It's difficult going through and hearing all these lines about hope for the future, knowing that it isn't going to happen for her. Mind you I have decided to just make up my own ending and if I do get to the end, I'll stop playing at the beam run and just imagine the ending I want for her in my head.



I have to say as well that I absolutely love the new short hairstyle. It's more like what I imagined Hrist having than the old version from ME1 and 2.I was disappointed that they changed the old default Jane cut so drastically though. It's a lot flatter now and even though it just about works for my Shep that uses it, it would have been nice if BioWare could have kept it closer to how it was and just made it look more like hair rather than a molded lump of plastic.

Oh, re: is your shep you?

Um...yes and no. Kyrie really evolved for me over many playthroughs, so a lot of my own thoughts go in to her. I have her make the decisions I think are the right ones (and so i guess that ended up saying that i have a MUCH stronger renegade streak to me than i previously thought), but she does so for her own reasons. I made her to look like me, and I think I got her pretty close, but then tweaked her a little to make her look like she fit with the world, as just another character there - albiet a very pale one who sort of sticks out a bit.

As for personality, she became a meld of me and 3 other friends that then became her own person. actually, i realized she's a LOT like my best friend by a long shot. So at the end, I realized wow, it's HARD for me to let go of this character. I feel like i'm abandoning so-and-so if I do. very strange, that.

Well certainly don't abandon her.  Even if we didn't get these endings, ME3 was going to be the last Shepard story we would see.  Shep would have to live on through us, whether in our heads or fanfic/fanart.  Given how much time and effort we have spent on our Shepards (and indeed on crafting the game itself, as Bioware has admitted), I think we're at least partially in control of the universe.  Co-creators, if you will.  So I see the endings that were presented to us simply as "creative differences" that we can either take or leave as we see fit.

Oh, I won't abandon her in one sense. Even if DLC makes it all more horrible, even if the ending is all we get, I will write mahself some fanfic like a boss and get the ending I think it should have.

But seriously. I wrote myself and my two best friends and my sister into a character, and this was the last I saw of her:

I joined femshep.com just after demo release...so I could multi-player with alot of the regs here. Most I guess know me pretty well from either chat or my posting of my femsheps...whom I haven't even shown all off because well...I wasn't posting in the original thread at first. I also come froma  family of STRONG women...we are jamaican's by blood and most of my family moved here before I was born( in 1980).So, yeah I too love a strong female protagonist even if my tendancy is to play the male first because of my gender. I tend to like to play the females more because I fidn I can roleplay them a TON better..whereas the males I feel like I play them to my own personality. Anyways, let me stop rambling there...LOL.

Another of my current femshep Alicia...whom as I said before is gonna have complete personality switch from Paragade to Renegon...

[snip Alicia pic]

I never wanted to tell my gender. I always thought it was irrelevant - that in a weird way it would be the most effective way to give an opinion and accept others; that it was kinda setting me free of any (gender - society) expectation; or that it wouldn't provide a filter for me (or others) to look through...
I come from a family where gender never really matter ( my dad was an engineer; my mom is a history/geography pr.). I learned at a very young age to treat people for who they are - not who they appear to be...
 i'm a dude too.

More of my Jane - she will do until i can import my canon...
[snip Jane pic]
 
   

SR... i think it is rather irrelevant at this point and I personally want to thank you for always making me feel welcome around here and the other thread...as i did notice you were usually the first one to respond to most of my posts/pic bombs, though MeonlyRed was first to respond when I first posted Allison in her ME 2 form. So let me say a BIG Thank you for that and to all other whom I've ebcome friends with in this thread as this truelly the only thread i chat in now. 

On the subject of are my sheps like me...HELL NO. The only shepard who could be slightly like me in my way of thinking dealing with things in the ME universe who is named after me Raji shepard...and that is it. Allison meanwhile is entire entity all on her own eventhough they both share share same class and basic background information...their routes of getting to ME 3( and in Allison's case beyond) couldn't be anymore different. They were both renegons - which by my definition of playingis diplomatic...making mostly paragon decisons at the big moments of the ME 1( saving the counsel, rachni, shiala but killing the colonists of zhu's hope) but responded almost exclusively gave renegade conversation responses in ME 1. Allison however was abit more calculated as she didn't have a LI in ME 1...she had her eyes and heart set on a particular rebel turrian from c-sec who basically saw things eye to eye. In ME 2, things changed...she became more Paragade in nature...but only in her responses to people...when she wanted to be cheeky or derisive her old renegade personality began to show itself...but once again when it mattered most at the collector base...she made the paragon decision of destroying the base. I'd like to think that is moment she actually chose her side once and for all in ME...because ME 3...her reputation bar which was maxed was like 70% paragon, 30% renegade...and yeah, whenever she could intimidate chat or renegade interrupt someone she did it...though I did miss the renegade 'tell your friends we're coming for them' line on Rannok with her...if only because I felt like she still wanted to understadn the reapers absolute purpose for why they always destroy or harvest the galaxy in these 50,000 year cycles. Ultimately, her final choice was AND always will be to 'FIGHT OR DIE' because to her their is no other way for her to live...and somehow or another we as organics will see be okay.  I would like to also mention here that Allison is MY very favorite ME Shepard...and that is shock of shocks to me but she is my canon so I guess it makes sense that way. 

[CrazyRah]

Sarah is a totally different person than me. She might carry a bit of my personality but that's only because those parts fit so well with her very own. She's also a different gender so already there we got a difference and i'm happy with that. I prefer not to play as myself since i'm me 24/7 otherwise and through Sarah i can create a person that's different from me but yet someone that i feel connected to. The decisions in the games are her own and my influence is barely there and most of the time it's only me clicking the option.I forged her personality from the start but she broke free from that and after a few playthroughs she had created herself and i just watched approving. She's my darling and i will never abandon or forget her but i will NEVER see her go through the endings one more time.

Bioware might call us co-creators but they only see us as that when they want to. Seeing what happened overall in ME3 it's obvious that they listened to some degree but they completely ignored a lot. (Giving the option to cure Thane is one example)







Damn do i love the hair in ME3, the ponytail got improved a lot!
