Its only the robes styled like the apprentice/mage robes though , the tevinter fur pauldron robes don't do that



Personally (Insert : "I like big butts and I cannot lie! DUN DUNNA!)

Artificially coloring "things" (as you call it) looks best on some women though , course ther are some who it doesn't really work for but they do it anyway but the ones it does work for its good


In certain cases perhaps, but for the majority, they look fine with whatever color nature gave them, it's society thats made them think otherwise a lot of the time.
I see so many women with bleached hair that it depresses me because I absolutely LOVE brunettes.


Some time ago over my sisters she had some program on. They were talking to a couple of regular women who bleach (nearing white or platnium) their hair and asked why they do it. Their answer was they wanted to stand out and the interviewer responds with "how does looking like every other bleached out blonde make you stand out" They had the best deer in the headlights look I have ever seen, and I live in the boonies so I have had some deer in my headlights.
Also yes darker hair and redheads are hotter then blondes inho.

Maybe it's a trend with RPGs ya know, cause Oblivion and Morrowind models also seemed like one poster said "emaciated" though I'd say they were a bit worse than DA. Until the body mods came up that is. Image IPB

Tomi Undergallows was the halfing, and unlike a certain hot but goody good rogue, he could always always pick a lock or open a trap, but I digress.

I'll keep that in mind about the robes though, cause now my ADD is acting up and I wanna make a female mage, prolly human, and I confess it's in part for the eye candy. Gotta make here different enough then my current mage though....crap, To the character creator!

Err ... toothpicks for arms ?

Never try playing Vanguard: Saga of Heroes then. THERE the women REALLY have toothpicks for arms. More thin than the bone of a real woman. THAT thin. Even if a women died for hunger, she would still have thicker arms than that.

And I'm talking about how it was when you had set the arm size to maximum.

Wasnt like that in the beginning, by the way. At the beginning, they where going for a realistic look. Much cooler.

Maybe its just me but if you look at Lilliana from just the right angle aside/back she still has a little baby fat on her.

Oh that is only when she is wearing Dalish leather.Image IPB

why does every man in these games always look like they just walked off the set of 300?



its equally unrealistic and playing to a stereotype. most guys, even athletic and well built, dont have the perfect physique they give them in these games. just like most girls dont have these perfect hot bods either.

No matter what the majority of us men truly think, many ladies prefer to believe what the media/culture tells them. Only advantage some blondes have I found is that they don't really need to completely shave... down there as long as its not too thick. Hehe



Personally I like dyed red hair though, redheads tend to be more orangy. Pure red or even natural auburn is plain hot, got the missus to get it done too =)

Maybe girls in games are skinny because in real life they are fat...........

(no offense meant to the women out there, but some of the girls from my school manage to dress so crappy that they look too fat though they are underweight)

By the way. It's refreshing to hear someone say this Image IPB


You are most welcome.  In RL I'm the quiet, shy type who is too afraid to approach a woman, but here I can at least voice my opinion honestly..  It's funny that even though my father died when I was 12, he had already instilled in me the mindset to respect women no matter what they looked like, (he treated my mother like gold and she wasn't stunning by any stretch).  Men are visual by nature, but in the long run, looks change, whereas mindset and attitude usually don't so much.

It's all about money really.  Sex sells, and the fantasy ideal isn't anything like reality, which sometimes isn't a good thing.

Actually, I play nothing but elves because the human female models are too wide, and they have too big boobs (not to mention dwarfs..). So I disagree with you. I want them more, not less, skinny.


I fail to see the problem with big boobs and wide gals? =/
Anyway, human models > all

I wouldn't let one just walk all over me, but I sure as hell wouldn't treat them like an "item" or an "object" either.

If it's possible to post on-topic in an off-topic thread:

I'd just like to say that natural colours tend to be more attractive in my opinion. In the words of the bard: "be who you are... be what you're like..."



Even less on topic:

This thread feels a bit creepy and unwholesome.

Maybe wide isnt the right word, I dont know how to say it, but somehow they are just... wrong.
Well, maybe it´s only because I´m a fan of the anorectic elf-type, and I think small boobs are more attractive than silicon tubs. Whatever, in my opinion the human women in DAO do only look good when wearing heavy armour, and, in most cases, a closed helmet. (Though the helmet part is true with the other races as well, mostly)

As a female gamer, I have to say I haven't come across a game with a realistic female(body) model yet.*

As for DA:O, I think the problem isn't just that they are too skinny, but totally disproportionate. They either look like they can't support their armor/weapons with their lacking muscle tone, and/or like they are suffering from malnutrition(see scary, protruding collar bones). Yet they boast weirdly over-sized shoulders and (in leather armor) an unfortunate looking six pack. And the absent waist...

Not that I want to see a skinny/fat scale. But I don't think its unrealistic for a female model to be both meaty, curvy, sexy AND seemingly able to wield something more than a butter knife.

Dont have any friends to worry about getting passed anything anyway.
I just respect and worship from afar.  Thats the way it is when you're so shy you're scared of everyone.  Image IPB
