There's a normal part?

Why not have you ever wanted to change your charactars gender mid game to see how a scene in the game would be different. with out having to create a completely different charactars.

[legbamel]

What, you don't find the idea of changing someone's gender against their will abusive?

Against there will it is your charactars a reflection Of you. Therefore it is not abusive let us change genders.

I'd say let's change Oghren to a female. I think he would enjoy that.

[scootermcgaffin]

Okay, I've gotta say the reaction to this is extremely confusing.

[Little Princess Peach]

[sunnydxmen]

[MichaelStuart]

Sten: I don't understand, I look like a woman.
Warden: Sten, you ARE a woman.
Sten: I am Sten of the Beresaad, so it follows that I CAN'T be a woman.
Warden: Uh....?
Later....
Warden: Sten, what happened to your gear?
Sten: Sten's not here right now. Would you like a cookie?
Warden: ......
Later still....
Warden: Sten! Come on buddy, we gotta get ready for the big fight.
Sten: I told you, Sten's not here right now. I think I've mastered Wynne's pie recepie. Here, taste this and tell me if I have it right.
Warden: ARGH! You can still hold a sword idiot!

Wait, what? Sten turns into a woman so he suddenly starts baking? You gotta be sh!ttin me!

It's the Qunari's way, stay in the kitchen, woman.

I still can't imagine Sten as a woman though.

I just think a gender changing feature opens up a lot of realm to people going to abuse it.

Other people abusing their games is not your problem.  There is no reason for you to care at all about how other people play the game.

Gender? NO!

Hairstyle? YES!

Makeup? YES!

[mesmerizedish]

Baldur's Gate set the precedent with the girdle of gender-bender.

Sure, it'd be neat.

How very... arbitrary.

[Allan Schumacher]

I think that this would potentially cause a lot of issues with anything in game that is reactive to the character's gender, and has already occurred in the past and therefore been set.

Branka surely.

Why would this feature be useful?  It makes sense in an MMO setting where there is no definitive ending and the game can last for years so beating the game and starting a new one to play another sex isn't as feasible.  But Dragon Age 3 is not an MMO.  It has an ending.  If you want to play as the other sex, start a new game.    DAO is like 50 hours (give or take depending how many quests you do), Awakening was like another 10, and DA2 was like 35.  That's not so long to just beat the game on the current character and start over with a new one. It's also not so long that you can't just delete your current character to start over.  Compare that to an MMO where you can have 100+ DAYS on a single character.  Some how, I doubt DA3 will be longer than 60 hours if previous Bioware games are any indication ... SWTOR being the exception but that's an MMO so doesn't count.

If DA3 was a game that had stuff continuously added to it for years and years rather than a few DLC before Bioware throws in the towel and heads to the next thing, yeah, sure, a sex change may be viable because who wants to start a new character and replay through all that?  But DA3 may be lucky to get 3-4 single player DLC, probably twice that for multiplayer (if ME3 is any indication), and not be any longer than 80 hours by the time Bioware quits releasing DLC.  So .... 80 hours is just over 3 days.  Thus 3 days of a single player RPG =/= 100 days of an MMO.    The time invested in a character with a story who ultimately ends does not warrant a midgame sex change feature.

Frankly, I'd rather see the money invested into other things like party banter, combat, scenery, etc rather than a single random feature that few will even use and has no place in a game that has an actual end to it.  If DA3 were an MMO, I'd be saying sure.  But DA3 is not an MMO.  Quality over quantity.  I'd rather have fewer features that are good than more features that are half assed.  I'd rather have mounted combat with horses than a feature where I can change my character's sex midgame.

If you really really really want this feature, I'm sure some modder will figure out it out eventually.  Save game editors usually come out pretty quickly so you can edit it with that.  Otherwise, I suggest to figure out how to learn to mod and do it yourself.

When mods do this it's pretty straightforward.  With romances, for example, the LIs are typically activated when first met, based on the PC's gender.  So those flags would persist, now with a PC of the opposite gender.

Well documented, this feature would work well.  Poorly documented, it would confuse people.

But since you're going to start documenting your games again (right?), that's not a problem.

Girdle of femininity y'all

Why do you want to change your gender during a playthrough. Why not start a new playthrough?
