Except the Keep doesn't import character appearance at all, also the engine change pretty much makes any import impossible even if it did.
Has this actually been confirmed, though? I remember asking about it on Twitter and I was just told it was something they're working on, but that was a long time ago before we even knew if Hawke or the Warden would make an appearance in this game.
I can definitely see why it could be pretty much impossible with the new engine, though.
Unless they've confirmed otherwise somewhere, I suspect the game will just import whichever Hawke you've selected on the Keep as is. If you opt not to create a DA2 save file, you will get the default appearance for Hawke in DA:I (whatever that is).
This is really the only practical way as far as I see it. I highly doubt they would bother adding a mini-CC in the middle of the game for an NPC whose screen-time is most likely minimal at best.
The engine is different. I don't think the face code will directly import.
The only other possibility is the game will simply use the same appearance for Hawke regardless of everything.
I'd actually say that's the most likely scenario (though far from the ideal one), all things considered.

No, because Laidlaw has confirmed that Hawke will be customizable.
Except that they've already said that there will be an in-game CC for Hawke. Nothing to do with Keep as only imports Hawke's portrait and name, not any other details from your saves. You have to use it to set up a world state yourself.Unless they've confirmed otherwise somewhere, I suspect the game will just import whichever Hawke you've selected on the Keep as is.

Well, I had a feeling I was pathetically out of the loop regarding Hawke 
Anyone got a link for Mike's tweet on Hawke being customizable? Because that's AWESOME.
I'm on my phone now so it's not easy to search for it, but it was something along the lines of "we wouldn't include a previous protagonist without providing a means to customize them."Anyone got a link for Mike's tweet on Hawke being customizable? Because that's AWESOME.

I see.
It doesn't outright say there's going to be a CC for Hawke, but I suppose that's as good a confirmation as any at this point.
There's always this tweet
Thanks for that.
If it turns out that there isn't a full-fledged CC for Hawke, they could theoretically allow some degree of customization via dialogue, but it wouldn't be nearly as comprehensive. I'd muchly prefer a CC, though.
OT question, but have any of you seen Princess Mononoke? And if so, do you think that the Red Elk, Yakul, that Ashitaka rides might have been the inspiration for the Red Hart mount?

Yes and nope, never occurred to me.
So, what time does the stream begin today?

2:45 hours
Thanks, jlb.
They didn't put up the usual PDT time in the pic, so that got me confused.
I'm surprised we're getting anything on a Saturday at all.
If you can stomach going into Scuttlebutt, Elite Pinecone almost always updates the first post in the Twitter thread with a link to a timezone-converting site so you can find out when the latest stream will be where you are. Here is today's link.

There is no Saturday during crunch.
Or we're about to see Laidlaw at home sipping a Piña Colada.

I love Princess Mononoke, one of my fave animated films. Now that you mention it, they do look similar, it might be partly inspired by Yakul.
"we wouldn't include a previous protagonist without providing a means to customize them."
Yep, i really had no doubt about that in first place and i don't get why ppl had doubts. When ppl saw default Marian they lost their shite by thinking "we will have this Hawke?? NOOOOO", like pls, have some sense. Ppl really thought for some reason that we won't get to customize previous protags.
Hawke is a customizable protag, they just used the default Hawke.

I'm sure they're going gold sometime next week. Just a hunch.

It is getting to that time. BioWare will be able to take a much needed breather, then come into work early the next day to start the crunch on the day 1 patch.
I have finally catched up! Going to watch lady insanity's companion video...
oh! and...
