yes and blonde female characters will suffer a skill point penaty to all skills because that's how it works according to the BSN  backlash of the poll winner for "pick your femshep" contest.

 

 

I would hpoe not I've always hada bit of a soft spot for blondes

Andromeda runs on the same engine as Inquisition.

 

Supposedly, making hair is freaking hard for video games, and it just so happens that making hair with Inquisition's engine (Frostbite 3) isn't the expection. If that's true, then Andromeda's hair selection / variations should be just about as low and bad as they are in Inquisition. Sorry to burst any potential bubbles around (I wish I was wrong, I just normally expect the worst case scenarios now from AAA games).

 

On a side note, there are a couple of exceptions around. Two come in mind right now, namely The Witcher 3 (then again, what is that game not doing well?) and the 2013's Tomb Raider reboot. But those two games run on their own " in-house " engine (Witcher 3 runs on REDengine 3, and Tomb Raider on Crystal Dynamic's own Foundation engine). I suppose that good hair quality AND variety (I.E. crap load of hair style choices during character creation) in Andromeda would only depend on two things: 1) if BioWare learns how to, or figures out a way to do it with Frostbite 3, or 2) They stop development on Andromeda, create their own engine, master its intricacies, then restart development of the game. That really just leaves us with one way to go doesn't it.

 

Seriously though... it's a question of time and budget, I think. I'm about 95% convinced that Frostbite 3 is a perfectly-capable engine for rendering / portraying hair properly, but the devs themselves sort of... you know... have to do it. If the guys working on the hair styles are content with 10 for males and 10 for females (some of which would be identical anyway for both genders) and call it a night, then there's really not much we can do about it (regardless of the engine, too).

If the CC isn't at least the same level of Inquisition's I'll be disappointed.. I'd expect even more hairstyles / customization if the PC is human only,

Honestly, I'm fine with limited hair dynamics, so long as they actually have better designs this time around. Even if Inquisition had all the technical rainbows, puppies and magic to make their hair flow in the wind, it wouldn't change that so many were motherflippin' buzzcuts.

I think they will be at least better because they don't have the limitation because of having to make sure all elements of the Inquisition would work on the 360 and PS3.

so do I especially given not only that they'er only supporting the new systems with this game too now. I'm pretty certain it will be better it's just a question as to how much.

I hope bunny ears are a hair option.
