Can I say I hate how Tevinters look? I mean, they look like Sith wannabees...
Do we really want to simplify an entire culture to "dark, dangerous and mysterious?"

I don't see how it could offend your historical sensibilities when it's not misreporting any aspect of actual history, and actual history has no relevence. Events, up to and including the invention of various technologies, can happen whenever the writers want them to.Ukki wrote...
^^^ Thedas borrows too much from the "real world" with these setting. Be it a fantasy world it borrows too much from our timeline to be said to be fantasy world which can timejump when ever designers feel like it. At least for me (a history buff) this jump is a eye sore and not consistent with the overall time frame.

And how do we know which one represents Tevinter... if any? The bottom set - which seems more traditionally "Byzantine" - could be the Tevinter. Unless I missed some caption labelling them.

But still, as for Tevinter - there's no indication of Tevinter's "complexity" - it's always been portrayed as an insular empire of slavekeeping blood mages. It's the forum goers who try to make Tevinter into something it's never been shown to be.

Since I'm assuming the people wearing these outfits won't be doing any fighting, it shouldn't be that hard. Bulging cloth, like the Orlesian and Tevinter skirts, can be a little quirky if they enable cloth physics for them, but even that shouldn't be an issue if the people wearing them don't see combat(or if the animations are more like DA:O than 2, for that matter).Sutekh wrote...
I like them very much, although I'm not quite sure how the balloon gowns would translate in-game, technically speaking (collision etc...).

DA:O had a few indications that could be read as Tevinter not being quite so bad. But this resulted in people bringing it up as an example of why free mages might not be so bad which seemed to annoy the writers, and DA2 decided to sledgehammer Tevinter = EVIL

Granted, Tevinter does have a Black Chantry/Black Divine.... so maybe that's the reason they dress in black? To reflect and embrace the mocking name the White Chantry gave them?
I don't mind if priests dress like that. But if the common folk or even the nobility dress like that (and my beef is more the black / hood combo than the black)? Well it's meh. Might as well point an arrow saying they are bad, which had been how they were consistently portrayed in both DA:O and DA2.

Yeah. I don't like it. It's too much. Over the top if you will. All flash and no substance.
Soldiers armor next, please.Bioware is definitely heading in the right direction

Bioware is trying to re-invent DA's art style again? Oh boy. I wonder how many features Qunari will have after this one. Maybe dwarves will have horns now, too!
