Reality VS Fantasy
On the left we have a realistic portrayal of Cassandra, technically a woman who in my opinion is not the least bit attractive, although she has an incredible personality. Cass appears slightly more masculine than most men would care for. Keep in mind that she is a romance option for straight males, but she is actually quite popular amongst women and gay men (check google). The flat chested armor is REALISTIC to deflect blows, I can respect that. The nature of the armor would add to immersion. Aveline's armor was the same way which preserved immersion and realism, but she was also masculine in appearance and not a romance option, however Cassy can be romanced.
On the right we have a highly sexualized portrayal of a fantasy hunter. Her body is nearly flawless and almost non-human. She is highly attractive and feminine in appearance. Most men without an agenda would find the women on the right far more attractive than Cassandra. Her armor isn't about utility, it's about art and sex appeal. It shows how beautiful she is. The picture on the right completely captures my imagination, it feels fantasy. The picture on the left is someone I could see at the super market.
VS 
Here is another fine example of a highly, beautiful fantastical character that captures the imagination. (thx to lord raijin)

I personally prefer fantasy over realism. Dragon Age I & II were both fantastical in their art direction.

I feel like after Dragon Age I & II, Inquisition was a complete and sudden change that caught me off guard. It was not what I was expecting and I am upset and disappointed.
