Well, since we know what the characters in the new DA game look like, I wanted to discuss their appearance with you. You might say, “Oh no, looks aren’t everything, you can’t decide if a character is amazing by looks alone!” While true, I am superficial and still want to talk about their design. I also will be writing a lot about hairstyles, since I like (am obsessed with) hairstyles. Here we go:
Varric- I don’t think he changed much from DAII. I was hoping there would be more chest hair. Alas, it was not to be.
Sera- Yay, the DAII elves are gone! Well, Sera looks very pretty. At first I didn’t like her hairstyle but I now think it is adorable 
Cassandra – I know a lot of people don’t like how she looks now, but I can’t agree with that. If anything, she looks even prettier than in the last game. The only thing I disliked was her very tiny neck in the first screenshots. This, however seems to have changed or the screenshots had just an unfortunate angle. I also think the transition to the new engine was well done. Plus, she can totally pull of the short hair.
Vivienne- She is very pretty. Nevertheless, I am a little disturbed that I don’t know how what her hair looks like. She does, however, have an amazing hat and I am slightly jealous.
Dorian - Awesome mustache is awesome
Iron bull – I can forgive the lack of hair, since he makes it up with an amazing eye patch. I am also slightly jealous of that.
Solas – he looks a tad bland to me eyes. Hair would probably fix that. I don’t support the decision to not give him hair. He has nice eyes, though.
Cole – No, no, no, that hairstyle simply won’t do. If I were the Inquisitor, I’d provide him with a hairband. Otherwise he looks appropriately spirit-y.
Blackwall - A decent hair style and an even better beard. I approve.
Leliana - I like her new hood. I don’t like that she doesn’t seem to age. I thought more than 10 years passed between DAO and DAI. I wish I my skin would stay that smooth ten years from now. Same goes for Morrigan.
Cullen - He is handsome and everything, but He does not look at all like the guy from the other two games. On the plus side, his little scar is rather adorable.
Josephine – She is very pretty
Conclusion: I like how Varric and Cassandra translate to the new engine. I think that none of the characters look to generic. I also like that the male models specifically have such a wide range of facial features and body types. I don’t like that, apparently, most women in Thedas are fashion models who aren’t allowed to age.
What do you think?
