I saw the lady in the trailer was Cass right away, so i have no problems with her face there.
In the only screenshots i saw, her face looked really nice.

Her jaw isn't as big as people make it out to be. It is slightly bigger, but Samara had wider jaws then that and she's beautiful, so i don't see what the big deal is. Cass just looks like a woman to me.

I also like her new hair and eyes. Her neck is a bit thin though, but it might look too big if they make it wider.

She looks better than in DA2, so i'd say "yay!"

yeah, I kinda like her the way they want to present her.  A female warrior in the middle age would be closer to a triathlon athlete than a supermodel, so that's totally ok for me for Cass to have some heavier bone structure and some muscle on those bones.

I simply do not get why the hell BioWare made her to look like second Aveline. She is ugly. Simply ugly compared to Dragon Age II and Dawn of the Seeker. If they wanted a tomboy they could bring back Aveline. Otherwise we will have a monster show. Vivenne looks like she was a hybrid of a human nad horse already. Why do you had to reshape Cassandra's face?

Agree to an extent.
I liked Avaline.
Thought she was attractive and should have been a DA2 Li.
Never understood why Bioware wanted her to be unattractive .
One Bioware employee who shall remain nameless called complaints about Cassandra and Morrigan 's faces "ridiculous ".
shrugs.
Hope they change their minds on that.

 I never really saw a "bad" or "ugly" face shape In a Dragon age game, and if they just never change anyones look at all anyone new would might look like the characters in DAO.
Anyway Cassandra looks AWESOME:D  I really like her new look anyway.

I have a very strong feeling it won't matter if Male Character's think Cassandra is ugly or not. I can sense a PR campaign and Panels coming.

Same here, but I thought her chin looked kind of elfish. Too thin.

I don't find her new look ugly at all.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, since I didn't read through the thread. If so, I apologize for being redundant, but in the new Xbox magazine, it showed a screenshot of Cassandra and her jaw wasn't wide at all. It looked quite normal. In fact, she looked much, much softer.

For me she looked good in DA2 and Dawn of the Seeker. Especially in the latter with long black hair despite the whole movie being quite weak. Nevermind. But Cassandra herself looked awesome there. I simply do not get why they changed her so suddenly.

Her look in DA:I is fantastic, and I really mean that. Whoever her character designer is, I think he/she did a great job because she looks almost exactly how I envisioned she would look at this point in time. Cass is a battle hardened warrior and I wouldn't expect a woman like that to be all dolled up. Instead I would expect her to look somewhat rough around the edges. I remember fans complained about Femshep and Ashley getting sexed up in ME3. Now we've got fans complaining Cassandra doesn't look pretty enough in Dragon Age Inquistion. 

My personal feelings on ME3 aside, you guys over at Bioware have my sympathy for putting up with this nonsense. A woman doesn't need to have textbook good looks in order to be attractive to men. Personally I think there's something sexy about her, and that's a result of subtley, not because she has a perfect 10 body. Her personality, her strength, and what she stands for brings out the beauty in her, and I see it. I look forward to interacting with her in DA:I and see what she brings to the table.

Some people are letting their fandom run away with them and are refusing to see errors in the way the faces have been drawn for Morrigan and Cassandra .
I guess that's ok for them.
Whether new to DA players will look at that and not see the flaws remains to be seen.

And some just don't care. The change isn't so stark that it bothers me. As I said, in the new Xbox magazine, Cassandra's face doesn't look too wide, so the other screenshot was most likely an old one. I see Morrigan as being ten years older--it suits her.

Maybe your fandom is running away with you and you can't let go of the "old" look. /shrug

I am in the yay category on this. I would also like to point out that what they have shown so far is not the finished product and they still have another year before its finished. That said I love this look for her. Personally hoping she is a love interest. We have not had a warrior love interest in Lord knows how long.

Yay, very yay. I hope she is a good LI option for a female Inquisitor. Might just be the first really interesting lesbian LI I've seen so far then.


Agree 100%. I thought the same thing when I saw her in the trailer.

Or they just don't care?  Neither of their new looks are hideous and it makes sense that A)There would be changes between engines and B) Its been ten years since anyone saw Morrigan, people age.

Impossible to get the same look with a new engine, impossible.

Big NAY... looks terrible both in the PAX demo and trailer. I wish she stayed the same as she was in DA2. She looks too... butch.

If they're new to the franchise, then they're unlikely to care do to a lack of familiarity with the previous two games.

This post is directed towards Mr. David Gaider:

To me, it's not about making her look *pretty*, but making her look tolerant to the senses. It's like, if I played with the character creator and gave my hero a big nose or fat lips or no neck.

This is why women obsess over their looks and weight.
