I'm sure he'd be fine with this.

The look on his real face would be priceless.

Ever play a game and you're fine with the default character, however you there was just a few things you would change about them? 

it's hard to say since Mass Effect is only one of the few games that has a default (like intended look) character but still has a customization option. From BioWare two main franchises, Shepard and Hawke are the only two protagonist that had default as intended to look characters. So this kind of question is fairly new, outside of Fallout 4 I can't think of to many more games that offered such a default but still allowed customization on the default or to make a new one entirely. To answer the main question though, no, if im going to play the default because I like it, then im probably not looking to change anything.

I'd love to be able to edit the default without having to resort to mods. I wouldn't mind removing default ME3 femshep's lipstick, or heck, giving Sheploo a nice afro. He'd work it.
And don't give the defaults ridiculously awesome hair compared to the ones customs are stuck with. Damn you, Jane Shep and Marian Hawke!

Hmmm... in practice, assuming we're still using a scanned face, this would mean that a bunch of the CC controls either would be locked, or couldn't be brought up at all. I suppose Bio'd get a pile of bug reports asking why the rest of the CC doesn't work.

Ah, I forgot the facial features of scanned faces can't be edited in the cc because they're exclusive 3d models. Hm. I guess they could still lock some features like they did with DAO's beard options (choosing a beard meant you couldn't edit the cheek/jaw). I don't think it would be very confusing if they greyed out the unusable sliders, but left other options like hair etc. to be used as normal.

I guess they could bypass this problem by simply not using scanned faces as the defaults, but faces made in the cc. Like DAI's head options, perhaps. They could give them exclusive textures to make them more iconic, and they would be editable. It seemed to me that ME3's default femshep was also made in the cc and had a custom texture slapped on.

Definitely, I liked the default Shepard face. It's just too bad you couldn't edit it.

[N7Jamaican]

It's not soo much disliking the default but for me... It's more enhancing the features a character has. What if I don't like the hairstyle but love everything else? What if I want mShep to have gray eyes, and a salt n pepper beard?

ME3 fShep could not be replicated with the CC, it was just as unique as the default mShep.

 

The problem here is that to have the default hi-res face be made with the CC utterly defeats the purpose. As mentioned, you can't recreate Shepard or Hawke because they are high-resolution faces that allows them to have much more detail and quirks than could be included in the CC. Even the request to alter them is because you can't recreate them in the CC, otherwise that would be the only thing required, and I assume someone would like to alter them because they like the level of detail and uniqueness in them. Which would be utterly lost if the defaults be made with the CC.

 

I repeat an earlier question, what exactly is so bad about having those high-res, scanned default faces in addition to the CC? Why should they be removed? What exactly is lost with that option?

I would have liked to see the default Shepard with darker skin.  I think that would have suited his face shape.

Nothing.

 

It's just irritating to be shown a face that's almost perfect, but be forced either to accept the flaws, to try to recreate the whole thing from scratch.

 

I also don't see why we can't just be given tools to edit the textures and meshes ourselves.  This is yet another problem that could be solved with mods.

[Absafraginlootly]

I remember thinking default female Hawke looked great, but I wanted long hair. And me3 femshep was so close to what I wanted my Shepard to look like that I could almost of just used her instead of recreating Anne's face again, save for the fact that she has heavy make up.

 

So, it would be nice if future such defaults could have their more trivial aspect altered, like makeup, eye colour, hair colour/style.

[Fredward]

I reeeaaalllyyy wanted to give default manshep green eyes.

[Hazegurl]

The eyes were the only thing about Sheploo I wanted to change, but if they can't do it then I can live with it.  I loved having a handsome default who looked just as unique as the squadmates over a cc generic looking character.

[aoibhealfae]

I'm still waiting for someone to put a hair mod on the Vanderloo default. I really hate his head shape...... 

[DarthSliver]

I am with that, being unable to edit the default Femshep for ME3 was a bummer. At least I think you couldn't edit it because I know I liked it but just wanted to change it to blonde hair and blue eyes lol

[BraveVesperia]

Even if we couldn't change the facial structure, it'd be good to change the colouring and hair if we want to. I probably would've tried Sheploo if I could slap some hair and brown eyes on him.

 

Tbh, I'm not too fussed about defaults as long as they don't steal the good options from the character creator. That was very annoying in DA2, with both gender Hawke's hairstyles.

[Han Shot First]

I wonder whether they'll even have a default this time around, or whether they'll go the DA:I route and just have a couple presets. The presets in DA:I were just as detailed as the two default Shepards in ME3. The biggest issue with the CC in the Shepard trilogy was that anything created in the CC looked more plastic and less detailed than Sheploo, but that's not likely to be an issue with Andromeda's CC. There may no longer be a need for a default.

[ArcadiaGrey]

I didn't care for default ME3 female Shepard, she imo looked nothing like the cover art. So, I suppose changing a few things should be allowed.

 

I assumed we'd get a hi-res version if the classic femShep, the face you see if you google femShep and click on images.  She's accurate to the majority of femSheps out there.  Instead we get a puffy, over made up 'who the hell is that??'

I hope they do that, no one iconic character but the player's personal choice.  I just don't want a huge discrepancy between a default and anything you make yourself.  You automatically feel like you failed no matter what you tried to do as it can never live up to the male model.

I wonder about this as well. ME liked to use face scans because of "realism", and there's less need for that in a fantasy setting like DA, but I really wouldn't mind if they just stick to cc faces just like in DAI. Those skin textures are certainly hi-res enough that there's no need for a face-scanned default, I think.

I remember Ashley had  a face scan....

 

........ ..... ..... somehow her voice actor is a lot more gorgeous than this

Stupid, sexy Mark Vanderloo with his superior texturing.

I don't know, despite what they did in ME3, a lot of Femshep art still drew the default version of her rather glam (lipstick, eyeshadow, the works) I find it hard to believe that Femshep would spend 20 minutes before mission deployment to get her makeup on. lol) So maybe the developers weren't to far off from what the fans themselves already did. To be honest in ME3 the times I played as femshep I used a Face Code someone had made that had very ahem... CoverGirl type face, so I am to blame as well.
