I make none of my characters look like me. I think people play games because they're fun. They're fun because you can do things you normally can't do. You can cast spells. You can kill people that need it. And you can look however and be who/whatever the hell you want. At every opportunity I play the different gender/race/etc. Why would you want to be yourself, like you already are in real life? Talk about pointless/boring!

I don't know about that, sometimes it's cool to see an avatar with your face on it laying waste to the hordes of evil, you know... slinging about the powers of the elements or cleaving apart enemies with battleaxes. And then I wink at the camera.

Okay, I love the way that was put. I highly suspected that was the case for most people but I still don't connect to that myself..for me it's just fun to BE as different as you can, y'know?

No, I thought it was best to tone down my good looks, besides I doubt the game could convey the same degree of awesomeness as the real me would and therefore would just be a poor imitation.

It's great to see so many responses.

well the receding hairline is similar I guess although mine isn't quite as bad (yet) - I also don't shave too often but that's pretty much where it stops....



In the godfather game I did make a cahracter that really looked exactly(!!) like me at the time. That was quite fun to play actually but since then I've gained some beer-belly-weight and I don't want to see this in a game

hrm actually  I think the opposite is the case. There is something escapistic about seeing oneself in a different world. The character that looks like the player can still do things the player cannot after all....

Close as i could get within the limitations of the character creator. I have a fuller, rounder Scandinavian-type face that i couldnt recreated.



I dont have a facial tattoo either......







or much hair remaining at this point my life. lol

The first character I made was a dalish elf and it was not really a build that I wanted. It was just a prototype so I can finish the game. The second was a noble human and this fellow was one heck of a warrior, dual weapon wielding tank, killed the brood mother and tower ogre all by himself, killed flemeth the dragon, killed jarvia, killed the sloth demon, killed carigan, killed two generals, and finally committing the ultimate sacrifice by vanquishing the archdemon.

She looks a bit like me, but I didn't manage it perfectly, I'll try again for my city elf, just because I'm trying to get one that looks like me for my avatar here, but my other characters look nothing like me. ^^

"hrm actually  I think the opposite is the case." - Yes, for most. As I already said in a previous post that's how I personally feel about it, I prefer to make so many changes I get lost in the difference rather than bringing some of this into some of that - don't worry I'm already well aware I'm not like most

Eeeh...a bit.

I tried to get some resemblance, but this is the closest I got.

[Fryce]

Gave up after skin tone haha...waaaaaayyy too much time can spent just MAKING a character then even starting on the game

Think I share some features like large eyes and full lips, but my char is more idealized. My cheeks are...chubbier... And I don't do the "two little strings of hair in your face" since 1996!

[valis123]

Hmm I think the only resemblence I have of a DA character is that my hair is exactly like Alistair's, and so far I haven't really been bothered to make a character that resembles me.. too much work :x

[StupidWiz]

<< I wish Iook like him.. only happens in my dream world



I agree, in games, ppl can do and be everything they like, be handsome/pretty, be magical/strong, that's why we (I) play games, to be a lot cooler than ourselves in real life
