Morrigan looks good. She has aged well. Like to see her with her hair downImage IPB

Varric looks ok. I like the clothing he's wearing.

Cassandra looks good

Seems to me you're slightly embittered from remarks made by people in the past. Yet let me remind you that we're not those people so why are you treating us as if we were?
I'll admit I've not read the entirety of this thread, and mainly just read your comments, but you struck me as awfully abrasive and arrogant concerning certain posts, conjuring up anti-female motives when they weren't suggested or even implied.


Eh, there were some comments in this thread that did make me go "That does not paint said poster in a particularly positive light."

I won't quote any because I'm not interested in calling people out, but I'll just say that to me, some of the posts seemed to indicate that Morrigan's lack of attractiveness has also compromised her character in other ways as well (which is an unpleasant thing to read, IMO).

Anyways...

The eyebrows are closer to her Dawn of the Seeker and the World of Thedas concept art. Actually the trailer is quite similar to that concept art. They even put the little hearts on the spaulders despite her wearing a different armor.

It's a new engine. I fully expect that returning characters will not look exactly the way they looked in previous games. The ones we saw were all recognizable and, IMO, no less attractive than they were previously. I wasn't too thrilled about the shiny skin everyone had (will dusting powder be available as a make-up setting?), but it will probably grow on me.

As there is in all threads. They usually get ignored by the majority.

Those posts were silly, and were rightfully shunned by all.

You know they're going to have to change Morrigan's face Schumaker. They simply are. I think you're taking things too personally. Gaider being too defensive. We understand the fate of the DA series is at stake. You can't afford another flop or EA might can the series. DA is Gaider's baby. He's nervous about it. We understand that and feel a measure of sympathy for you guys. You feel you're doing the best you can. Well we're all rooting for you guys to succeed. Despite differences I 've had with you and Ninja Stan and differences of opinion about the want you to well So calm down, do your best and we have belief that things will ultimately be ok.

Morrigan: Nice and recognizable.
Varric: 10/10, would romance.
Cassandra: Derpy. I will have to get used to it.

But doesn't discount David's opinion either. Especially, since you seem to agree ("as there is in all threads"), even if you may disagree with the level of prevalence.

Also, please take note the specifics of the post I was replying to, as it provides context for why I stated my post.

I don't think they look bad. I'll admit it is rather jarring to see them looking different, although expected with a different engine, but I do think they look more like real people. I'm a bit sad to see Morrigan's nose changed, as that was always my favorite part of her face, and I've envied that nose for every single one of my characters in DAO :lol:.

Getting away from character specifics: Looking at the individual features on all three of them, I'm VERY excited to play with the character creator and look at all of the available options. Also, Morrigan's hair looks fantastic; can't wait to see more hairs!

Implying nothing. I'll state it outright: there is absolutely a mysoginistic element to the commentary on female characters.


Thank you.

Sarcasm is always necessary.


My motto from now on.

They look fine as they are. I'd rather you wouldn't tweak them anymore.

If one were to go by forum posters commenting on a character's initial reveal, Morrigan in DAO was beyond hideous. I recall a number of long topics over how giant her jaw was, how misshapen her lips were, how her shoulders were too wide and her body badly animated. Also, Merrill had enormous breasts, Isabela an impossibly masculine jaw and Leliana giant fish-lips which were impossible to look past.

Possibly people just like dissecting the appearance of female characters. I'm not sure. Maybe it's just something you get used to, or will never like simply because it's different. I suppose you'll find out eventually.


Or because it's absolutely terrible, like Alistair in DA2.

On topic: I think new Morrigan looks awesome. The new face rendering will do wonders for the character imo.

Your comment is laughable.
They don't have to change her face.

Ultimately the video game business is a consumer generated business. A developer can feel like he's sitting in a castle, insulated from external events and rant and rage at the fans and say nobdy in the industry listens to fans. Developers who do that will ultimately get their come uppence. Their just deserts. People who don't listen to the fans will live to regret it. shrugs. Of course there are people who have posted on youtube and in other forums who don't like Morrigan's appearance either, so it's not just me. But like I said I expect things will improve before the game is released.

Still need to cover up those neck joins?

Omg is that why every single character in both games has some sort of weird neck thing?

Morrigan and Varric look fine enough. Something about Morrigan's face looked a bit off when I first saw it, but, eh, she's aged and the engine's changed. I approve of it, really. Varric also looks a bit off, but hey, even without the chest hair, he's rocking a cool outfit.

Cassandra's the only one who really throws me off. I like the design, in-of-itself, but the jaw doesn't match up with what she looked like previously.

But its also people who do like her new appearance. And people who don't see the diffrence. And I don't see how they must change her beacuse some people can't ****** to her anymore.

In the end the important thing is that Morrigan is in the game, her look is a pretty silly thing

What really bothers me is Gaider's attitude towards us, no one was flaming and no one was whining, or at the very least just a small minority was, and he comes out with something that (IMO) was quite insulting and not asked for, like no one is allowed to have different opinions/aesthetical preferences

I don't really like Morrigan's look. Varric looks different, but I like it. Cassandra looked okay in the trailer, but not as good as a still image. I like the scar, but the eyebrows are wrong. All of them have a slightly waxy look about them.

I like all of them. Varric looks great! I hope they fix Alistair if he's in this game. I didn't like the way he looked last game. Can't complain on the new looks though. Can't wait for more information!

You're being gross Aolbain because you're using your baser instincts. It has to do with aesthetics . A complex word for someone like you. It has to do with what is pleasing to the eye. That can be sexual or nosexual. shrugs.
As for the sandal player calling my comments laughable. I'll be polite and call his uninformed and leave it at that.

Well this was a comparison to DA2 Cassandra. I watched the movie, but I preferred the DA2 Cassandra look. This one doesn't seem to bad so far. Plus I kind of like the character. The graphics are nice and the characters all around look pretty good. So far I'd say DA3 is great In the visual department.

I would like to congratulate you for successfully reading my entire personality and psyche through one post. Complex words makes my head hurt and I would never exaggerate to make a point.
Now of to yell obscene words on the street!
