Now, the subject matter is not so prominent in this article but basically all quotes are answers to fan questions. I don't know if this is news or not actually, but let's see what happens.

So basically Mike Laidlaw confirms this in the article, and I quote:

"Finally, Mike Laidlaw confirmed that players will be able to alter the physique of their main characters. Instead of sliders, however, they are limited to just four body types per race. You can find his comment below:

"Not with sliders. We're investing in supporting 4 race body types instead." "


So, I don't know about you but this is massively disappointing to me, because this is something I've always taken for granted with both Mass Effect and Dragon Age and like with Autodialogue I think it's wrong to change conceptual stuff midway through a series of sequels. I know DA is not a trilogy, I know we don't control the same character for several games but I still think the same concept for character creation which is such a fundamental RPG mechanic should stay consistent in sequels.

To bring this down, Mike says that we can't customize faces, but instead we have 4 presets that include body and face, so basically there are 4 characters with 4 presets to choose from. I didn't expect a DA:O 2 but this is disappointing for someone who never used the preset faces in Dragon Age.

So... what the buck?

He's just talking about the bodies, not the faces.

I hope one of those body types has big boobies or preorder cancelled!

I think that just means you can't customize the body with sliders.

Huh, that's kinda weird though, isn't it? We weren't ever able to change body-parts were we? So why would the article say "They are limited to just four body types per race"

But nevermind I was probably jumping the gun. This topic sucks :-(

And I think the explanation isn't right. When he says "4 race body types" I think he means exactly what DA:O did: each race has one body type and that's it. Not four types per race.

Body customisation is a much requested feature.

edit:  And In Exile is right.

I don't really get how the hell you read "no face customization" out of that.

Instead, looks like we're getting alternate physiques ala Dragons Dogma, perhaps.

Each of the four races has a single body type for males and females. That's all that means.

Four race body types-

Human
Elf
Dwarf
Qunari

The author is confused and is thus confusing his/her readers

Wait. We can alter body types now?

EDIT: racial body types...man I feel jipped. Why can't we get SWTOR style body type customization?

Sorry to disappoint everyone, but the OP's conclusion as the one of the interviewer is flawed.A forumite asked Mr. Laidlaw if he meant 4 disctinctive body types for each race or 4 for all races. The answer was 2 for each race, one male model and one female. In the end, you'll be able to modify only the face, as in the previous games.

Here's a link to the conversation from the DA Tweeter thread .

Moron. We can adjust our faces...I think that's a bioware constant.

We just cant be overweight qunari females.

Man, every day I look up Inquisition news, and every single day I see another article by the examiner fishing for views that claims some mind blowing news that's just a tiny thing that's worded like it's an update when it's really not.
