More people seem to go for the default MaleShep face more though. I guess Mark Vanderloo's face just match Mark Meer's voice better, although, some would disagree. 

 

It's not hard to see why though. Aside from Sheploo benefiting from being based on a real person, getting a custom M!Shep to look satisfactory may involve more tweaking than people have patience for. But then, I'm guessing that quite a few players of ME3 (or ME in general) are simply not interested in the character creator to begin with.

 

In any case, the only Shepard that's real is mine.

That is true. Some are just not interested. I would only waste time for a FemShep face. I have created some in the past, but they always look like variations of my actual FemShep face. Too much feels to actually get over it.

I can only go for default MaleShep's face though, 'cause it just seems like the customized faces just don't match up with the voice, and because you can't set the tone and pitch for the voice, you really gotta find the "right" face.

 

 

I agree though. While I grew to like the way my Shepard looks, sometimes I find the voice a little bit off. Meer's voice is too synonymous with the default model. Ironically, Mark Vanderloo sounds anything like him

Personally I feel there's more versatility in femshep's voice.

 

Sometimes I also find the animation on custom male Shepard to be a bit odd. At one point he went all exorcism of Emily Rose coo coo crazy.

The problem I have with custom MaleSheps is that they all look related. The choices in the face creator are so limited that the custom faces end up looking alike.

Oooh... ooh...
I see a reason to post one two three of these again:

I have no idea why it won't make the 3rd link a vid as well

If we could edit some of the nose/lips characteristics like in DA and DA2 this wouldn't happen. It's still possible to make very unique faces using gibbed (offset bones/morph features editing) but it takes a lot of patience and trial and error.

 

The realism issue only depends on the face texture (both diff and normal map). Even on the same model, a different face texture makes a hell of a difference. Try putting Sheploo's, Kaidan's or Ashley's texture on a custom Shepard and they will instantly look better. Even if the texture has the same resolution, the diff is more detailed and the norm gives all the little bumps, lip lines and imperfections that makes a face realistic. It's also possible to make small alterations to the shape of the lips, nose and eyes by changing the texture alone.

Last night, my paragon infiltrator Shepard chose Synthesis and changed humanity forever. After slogging her way through the final mission (while I was basically sobbing every time I talked to my squad mates and don't even bring up that final goodbye with Kaidan), she chose to forgo any chance of returning to her beloved Kaidan in favor of giving humanity the best chance to survive. Happily she had done enough preparation for the assault that all of her squad mates survived so her legacy will continue with their stories. But unghhh all the feels, all the feels.

RIP Claire Shepard.

Which raises the question of why the CC textures are worse than the custom faces' textures. Any idea why?

No idea. Same resolution but more detailed textures would do the job, and even if Shepard's textures were bigger than the others there would be no significant slowdown. A couple of textures can't cause noticeable performance changes, I've used up to 2048x2048. It's not even a resource issue, once you have a base texture adding detail would take 15-30 minutes top.

Today my Shepard felt the need to channel her inner punk kid.

Went through Priority: Earth quickly. 

 

Here's that one scene. I just posted it not very long ago. I have to roll back my sound driver to actually record anything:

Seriously, stop with the .pngs! It's becoming unloadable now. Just use Jpgs!

But I'm using BMPs with only 20% compression. It loads fast on my end, maybe not on my phone though.

Finished the my playthrough with a Synthesis Ending... I hate that the game has to prioritize just squadmates along during flashbacks...

[SwobyJ]

Winston. One of the creepiest butlers I have ever experienced in a video game. Just minding my own business in the gym, all of a sudden that moaning starts up and I think a zombie has raided the mansion.

 

Into the fridge he goes.

 

 

This terrified me as a child btw.

[SwobyJ]

I stopped using the Cain after I tried to fire it one those 2 YMIR mechs at the end of Garrus' loyalty mission. It only took one mech down to half (other one was fine) and killed both my squadmates.

 

This whole paragraph seems very symbolically fitting. (quitting the Cain due to collateral damage and it failing, opting for something safer)

They come through as .pngs, check the link extension! You don't need 5mb images for a web forum, unless you click to see the expanded version there's no difference between that and a jpg.

Well, I did "inspect element," and it does come out as .png... hmm... but... but your images come out much better than mine, and much larger too. I think their file size might be different. Is there a way I can upload them as jpg files on imgur instead?

I doubt it's possible on imgur (I don't use though, not sure), but if you use fraps you can just change the screenshots extension in the settings. Otherwise you can use a bulk image converter.

I use steam to take screen shots as jpgs and they are usually 300kb as opposed to 3-5mb .pngs.
I did a comparison of the two on one of the tomb raider posts, there is not that nuch difference unless you really scrutinise them.
The difference in quality may be that I am running at a better graphics quality in-game?

Fun to see some screens of other people out and about in ME3   =)  

 

My FemShep just finished the Leviathan-dlc, it was great! The bit when she goes into the ocean, just this one small human being in the vast dark ocean. I had goosebumps, it was just so special for me to see her there. This shepard is my special girl, the one I use for my account and it is her first run through ME3.

 

Have fun everyone, keeping posting your adventures!
