My first human female character grew on me, eventually. I also just made an elf that i gave one of the "hair on top" looks, simply so I would have less to distract me from the game.
I have to say the hair is for the most part, dreadful in a 90s system hair sort of way. You can almost make it work and then you get in game and the outdated/primary facial animation and garish lighting only seems to make it worse somehow. That first animation clamoring up the hill, I always look part-ape... haha
Some of the cutscenes at Skyhold have better lighting though, and my character ends up not looking too bad (the human girl anyway.) My elf is dreadfully thin for a Dalish. You would think she would be better with a bow. Ah well. I did notice strategically placed chests that I assume are a storage feature at a later date. I hope they also add more hair and a way to respec/mirror your appearance for tweaks. (or ability to mod the game, though I understand the engine makes this difficult).
I would also love to change the female walk cycle - add in custom animations. I have feminine little characters walking like big tough men in diapers. I mean, it could happen....but really, should it?
