I canceled mine, as well, although the lack of feminine clothing wasn't the sole reason for my decision.  Bioware wants to make cinematic games, and I want to play games that give the player more control. If other players' comments convince me that I'd enjoy it, I can always buy it later.

May I ask what game you are playing that gives even more control than a BW game?  TW is about the same as far as choice goes, and they are the only RPG that comes to mind that is pretty good about player choice.  Well, so I've heard.  I'll be polite and simply say that I had some real issues with the game and wasn't able to get far. 

 

So what will you be playing in the meantime?  Journey maybe?   I've heard it's really good and all about player choice.  Forgive the off-topic, but this puzzles me.  When I read the bolded, especially before the game even comes out, I have to wonder why/how that conclusion was reached.  I guess I won't allow a couple of twitch streams and some snippets form all of my judgement on the game.  I have this weird thing where I have to play a game after it comes out before I decide how much I like it.  

 

I'm not trying to come down on you too hard.  I know of folks that, between the lack of city elves; the poor selection of lady Qunari hair; having a nutcracker uniform for the ball regardless of gender; and now the "lovely" shade of greyish brown and brown for the causal outfit, these guys are cancelling their pre-order.  

 

Honestly, I've been sitting here trying to think of another mainstream/AAA game in recent memory that doesn't have CDPR or BioWare attached to it that gives a crap about actual player choice and I'm stumped.  Skyrim...doesn't have much of a character for the PC, and I didn't exactly feel the weight of my decisions in the game.

I'm not sure if someone already mentioned this (I'm trying to avoid spoilers as much as I can and that includes topics on here) but I saw this picture on tumblr from one of the recent gameplay videos:

 

 

Isn't that the casual skyhold outfit? It looks way nicer with that jacket I have to say (although that color still frustrates me). I wonder if that's supposed to be an armor or....? I haven't watched the video because I already watched too many spoilers and I decided I won't do it anymore but it's from this video I think.

For what I am seeing it is indeed armor.

Again, I have been super impressed by the amount of really cute armor!! 8D Man, if I can craft what she is wearing in another color, I'll be in heaven!

 

Now, its just a shame that with such amazingly adorable armor...we have to suffer through crappy casual and party outfits, ugh.

I've been putting in requests to allow us to wear our armor instead of the clothing at Skyhold after launch.  I can respect if they don't want to design another outfit, but I would love to wear my armor instead.  Since I'll be customizing the hell outta my armor to really suit my PC's personality, it would be welcome if I could wear that at Skyhold.

 

Frankly, I think the PJ look during the "Judgement" screenshot made me giggle.  It's hard for me to take that seriously.  Now, a fully armed and armored Inquisitor passing judgement seems more commanding and respectful to me.  Otherwise, it looks like they rolled out to the throne while still in night clothes.  

[pinkjellybeans]

I would be more than happy if we could use armor at Skyhold because apparently you can craft armor that looks really light, relaxing and.. well, casual.

 

I wonder if it will be difficult for modders to find a way to do this?

Highly unlikely, at least for a couple of years.  Frostbite has the reputation of being the hardest engine to mod out there.  There is a total of one mod for BF3, which uses the same engine.  It was just a color tweak mod for the in-game colors.  It didn't add models or meshes or anything of the sort.

 

This is subject to change, as Frostbite becomes more commonly used.  EA is going to have their games put on this engine from now on (started with BF3,) since they own DICE.  When is it more widely in practice, that would probably give the modders a chance to crack the coding on that bad boy.

 

Sadly, we're stuck with the night clothes until the DA team is willing/able to give us another option.  Same with the Nutcracker uniform for the ball.

[pinkjellybeans]

Yeah, I know, but this doesn't seem to be like an impossible thing to do. I imagine it's not like creating a whole new mesh for hair or clothes. I don't know, maybe someone more familiar with mods can comment on this.

 

And I know Battlefield doesn't have any mods but I think Dragon Age has a larger community of modders so you never know.

[ThommyGunn]

I just watched that video, to me it could be another variation of casual clothes or it may be armor.  But the armor in the video shows metal shimmering off the arms, where this shows just cloth.  I can't help but think of the ME games where they did give us a few options, like the pant suit or the dress for casual.  So without everyone jumping to the conclusion that this is it, the final verdict and haven't even played the game yet.  There still might be hope for some variations....Bioware may not be confirming anything but they aren't denying anything either...some secrets they want to keep. 

 

All I know is, I honestly don't care what I wear in the skyhold, im just ready to jump into Thedas and kick some booty!

[Cantina]

IF people like the default outfit you wear around Skyhold that is YOUR taste.

 

The moment I saw that outfit (durning the video stream), Mum’Ra popped in my head and then I had the Thundercats theme stuck in my brain the rest of the day.

 

Anyways…let us do some digging…

 

From articles the DA team did a lot of research by looking at Skyrim. It’s a good idea, but you don’t want to go too far otherwise you risk losing the DA identity.

 

While in Skyrim, (if you choose too) you can download a DLC to build your own house.

 

Now let us say your dragonborn character walks into their house and it defaults to some ghastly outfit that looks like your hiding in a desert. I don’t think the fans of the series would be too pleased. Instead YOU the player are allowed to choose what to wear in your own character’s house. Want to role play and put on a noble outfit? You can do that. Want to just wear your armor at home and not give two bits about role playing? You can do that too.

 

In DAO, yes you were in a camp outside, but there was no damn default outfit. You wore whatever you choose to wear.

 

In DA2 you got this hideous Hue Heffner outfit that (as far as I noticed) most people did not care for, especially after equipping a new piece of armor and only seeing it when you step outside.

 

Have the developers learned nothing from the previous game? Given a default outfit to a player’s character removes a small portion of it feeling like it is in fact THEIR character. We should be allowed to have the option to personalize it.

 

 

Here is my suggestion:

 

*What you wear in Skyhold should not be a one piece long Jon pjs. Instead allow the player to choose what pieces he or she wishes to wear.

 

*You can unlock new pieces and/or recipes to wear around your Skyhold by find them while exploring, defeating enemies and/or completing quests. Just imagine a character finding the recipe to unlock say, Nug headed slippers.

 

*In order to change your outfit, simply head to your bedroom and click on the wardrobe. There you will be able to customize your outfit and/or change the color. Yes, bright pink Nug headed slippers.

 

Gosh, now I want some bright pink nug head slippers.

Cute armor? Where?

that's casssndra and i don't think that the inquisitor

I was talking about the red headed woman.

Is this a sincere question?

[Hanako Ikezawa]

Yes. I haven't seen any armor that would fall under the term 'cute'.

[Patchwork]

The scene that cap comes from seems to be when we officially move to Skyhold, I don't see the redhead being anyone but the Inquisitor. 

[Mihura]

That is subjective really, till now all the armor they showed is cute and sexy to me because they do not look like a joke or sexualise. 

[pinkjellybeans]

Yep, it is the Inquisitor, you can see her in the video. Inquisitor7 thought I was talking about Cassandra though.

[Fizzie Panda]

Cameron Lee said they were looking into it.  So folks that suspect a DLC are probably right on this one.

 

*snip*

 

Yeah they said they had to prioritize the more important stuff

 

and it'll probs be DLC

[Lieutenant Kurin]

I was talking about the red headed woman.

It's 100% the Inquisitor. I just watched a vid (apparently I'm monitoring things for spoilers now) with a custom female Qunari and she was in that exact same cutscene, in that exact same position.

[Gnoster]

Now that this thread asks for DLC providing different looking casual clothes (which I would like as well), could that same DLC also include casual clothes for followers and advisors? I find it odd that the Inquisitor changes into casual clothing, but e.g. Cullen and Cassandra are always in their full battle armor. A minor thing, but it goes with the PC casual clothing issue I think.

[Natashina]

I guess I'm greedy.  I'd like to have my character with a more customized look first.  It'll be awhile before I find the companions' looks tiresome.  I'll have to be staring at my character all the time.

 

However, I can get behind your idea.  

[HeyCal]

I noticed it too and thought it was weird for at least Cullen to always be in uniform, but who knows, maybe he's just so used to it from being a templar, and maybe he feels unsafe with it off? Though I do agree it would be nice for them to have more relaxed outfits, but I'm with Natashina, I'm selfish and want my inquisitor to look nice first, haha.

 

I wonder if the companions wear what is considered their non-armored skin while wandering around skyhold? I couldn't tell from the videos we have seen so far.

From what we've seen of Vivienne it looks like her Skyhold outfit is a plain version of her starter gear minus any sort of armourment. I was busy rolling my eyes and cursing the boob window so I could have missed details and it's not at all like her normal outfit.
