Can you guys use Kinect 2.0 facial scanning for a character more like me? i know it will not look just like me but i think you can get in the ball park. like old ea sports games on PC where you could upload a pic of whoever and make them a player.

[Perseus the third]

you mean like the gameface feautre in EA sport games?

[That MF Wolf]

something like that using the kinect 2.0

[SerCambria358]

No it wont be in the game, they talked about its possibility in future installments though

[Althix]

i remember that thing in Vegas 2. i would rather not have such feature. looks so funny even on high quality camera.

[That MF Wolf]

this would be diff cuz the kinect 2.0 can do it like rivals. so this time it will work.

[Althix]

yeah. but here is the thing. some people are not using low consoles.

[That MF Wolf]

it can be one of better with kinect thing

[Bob from Accounting]

I seriously doubt this world work.

 

Maybe it's good enough for EA sports game where your it's okay for your character to be an immobile pasty-faced abomination. But characters in BioWare games are expected to look very good and undergo very complex facial animations.

[Spectre slayer]

Not yet, they talked about it in one of the podcasts as something they may look into in the future, one of the devs had an iphone app that had something to do with something like that.

[That MF Wolf]

I think they can do it. like kinect sports rivals champion creation not from a picture like before.

[Bob from Accounting]

First of all, most of these kinds of demos are a whole lot of smoke and mirrors. I wouldn't put all that much faith in it.

 

Secondly, it's not the face that's necessarily the problem. It's the animations that come with it. We need a mouth, lips, and teeth that move correctly to pronounce words. Eyesbows that move correctly to portray emotions. A lot of other features and details. The most this kinetic thing is likely to be doing is grinning.

 

Thirdly, it's not really that great of a face to begin with.

[Cainhurst Crow]

I don't want my ugly mug on screen. Just a personal philosophy but there should always be a barrier between myself and my character as much as possible to avoid over attachment.

Still, would be a neat gimmick to see in game.

[Bob from Accounting]

That's exactly the problem. A standard framework would likely end up as a mess. Real faces are diverse, and many subtle touches are probably necessary to make animation look to the level of quality expected for a modern BioWare game. Something as simple as a smile could be thrown entirely out of whack for a person who has lips larger than expected or of a different shape than expected. Hence the developers sticking to a relatively small number of pre-made assets, such as mouths.

[Bob from Accounting]

I doubt the facial animations for Saints Row 3 are up to the standards expected for BioWare.

[Oswin]

I was about to say I wouldn't want to put my face into a game, but then I remembered this post from Reddit a few months back: http://imgur.com/a/uooT9

 

It could be fun   but I don't think we're quite there yet in terms of making it animate too well. That and as it's multi-platform, would it be fair to only allow this kind of thing for Kinect? I'm not sure how easy it would be to make it work equally across the cameras on Xbox/PS/PC.

[Mes]

Wow that would be... AMAZING... if it worked well at some point in the future.

 

I hope it won't be the too distant future, however, because my face ain't gettin' any younger. 

[smoke and mirrors]

I don`t want my face in the game i want someone better looking Chris Hemsworth would be good 

[That MF Wolf]

I dont know why people want less features for their games.

[Sylvius the Mad]

We want development resources spent on resources we will use, or that will otherwise improve our gameplay experience.

I would never use this feature, so I would prefer that none of the game's finite resources be devoted to it.

[In Exile]

I dont know why people want less features for their games.

 

Because games don't have infinite features. A detailed farming simulator might be great for people who love detailed farming simulators, but including one in DA:I means not including another feature. 

[Hanako Ikezawa]

This would be cool if the game had unlimited resources.

[CybAnt1]

I have to say while I have no problem with the game allowing you to use the character creator to shape your character to look somewhat like you - or really I would bet for most people, an idealized version of yourself   (I sure as hell don't have the muscles to swing a 2-handed sword effectively) - I'm not sure I really kin to this particular feature idea.

 

You should be trying to avoid self-insert. You're role playing somebody else than yourself. Of course, as I keep saying, in a SRPG nobody's "grading" you on whether you're even trying, so it really doesn't matter. But watching your Warden, Hawke, or Quiz run around Thedas with your IRL face just makes avoiding self-insert harder. 

 

Let's put it this way, it's not a feature I'd put ahead of other desired features in the feature-wishlist queue, even things like scabbards & sheaths.
