[Biotic Babe]

The new woman shown in the clip looks like a botched custom femshep.

 

Williams was the least beautiful female squad mate/crew member of the series, but she was still pretty.

 

I'm concerned that we will get a bunch of ugly/masculine squad mates (and femshep) after seeing this trailer.

 

I was hoping for more babes like EDI, Aria, Kelly, Treynor, Liara, and even Tali, etc.

I'm sorry, I can't take you seriously with a side pic like that.

Also I personally thought she and the asari were both v cute. And I'm 100% here for butch/masculine women.

That was my impression as well, I thought she looked like someone in her early twenties at most, and so a little too baby-faced for someone who is supposed to be in a senior command position. Of course with a CC that isn't an issue, and if using the female protagonist I'd just opt not to go with the default (assuming that is the default) and create a character who looks like she is in her early 30s.
I also don't get the complaints that she looks unattractive.

They may be going with a defined age background again, though. Maybe the protagonist is younger than Shepard's canonical 29? If you buy the DuncaN7 speculation, the PC isn't supposed to be in command.

Ugly? I think she's quite pretty. Not a supermodel look, sure, but I really wouldn't say that she's ugly 

 

I really thought she looked awfully a lot like Claire Redfield from Resident Evil

[Han Shot First]

They tried going for youthful cutie rather than womanly.

Joining the military makes everyone seem older. Your 18 year old sibling comes back from boot an adult.

That's my beef with her appearance. I don't think she's ugly. She looks plain to me. But she looks more like a high school athlete than a soldier.

With FemShep you immediately noticed the intensity and quickly realized she's a warrior.

Helmets or covers( hats) and military uniforms can maybe make people seem older than they actually are, but if you were to see a group of junior enlisted Marines in civilian clothing they would mostly look indistinguishable from any random group of 18 to 25 year olds, except for the haircuts and none of them being overweight.

It wouldn't be the first Sci Fi story to hand wave inexperience to put a main character in command, no matter how unlikely (the Star Trek reboot with young Kirk & Spock for instance), but I've always found that slightly ridiculous.

They may be going with a defined age background again, though. Maybe the protagonist is younger than Shepard's canonical 29? If you buy the DuncaN7 speculation, the PC isn't supposed to be in command.

True, though I hope they aren't going with a protagonist who is younger than Shepard in ME1. That potentially creates some issues with the story's verisimiltude. Someone who is fresh out of officer candidate school shouldn't be placed in command of a warship, particularly if there are other officers on that ship with more experience.

I'd very surprised if the PC isn't in command, because a cog in the machine wouldn't be able to set the ship's course. It would be very linear playing experience and souls lessen the impact the player has on the game world. If Shepard for example were just leading an away team on Noveria, with Anderson still the captain of the Normandy, Shepard should be deferring to Anderson on how to handle the Rachni.

The character is wearing A1 likely we wont even start out as an N7. The N7 is the other guy.

No we're N7. We have N7 on our armor. We aren't exactly fly attend the interplanetary combatives training in Andromeda.

I guess I'm the only one who found the supposed Ryder to be attractive...

SHe was alright.  My fear is it kind of fell into the Uncanny Valley mid jump...

[von uber]

asari is my biggest complain but this human female look average at best. and my biggest gripe it doesn't even match the voice actress. sadly this is the trend we are heading towards. maybe in future they will all be fully covered .. even the hair.. and you can only see the eyes. like middle east women.

This needs quoting for posterity.

[mopotter]

She's very average looking. And, she had brown skin around her eyes. Not attractive. We'll see about the customization.

I want to see women like Miranda, Jack, and Samara. I don't want see a mediocre woman who looks like she hasn't bathed in a month.

Well, she probably hasn't bathed in a month or a year.

 

Personally I would rather not have fashion models as companions.  Or at least not more than one.    As far as the customization goes, will wait and see.  I had more than one ME1 Shepard that didn't make it past Eden Prime due to a face only a mother would love.

[mopotter]

While inwardly agonizing over the plastic looking textures, I wondered why the hell they went to sleep in that type of gear? I'd have expected something that looked more like a wetsuit, or something. I knew we wouldn't see 1980s underwear, as in Alien, but I expected something less armor-like.

I did too.  Something like they had in KOTOR.  Sort of a jumpsuit that a you woke up in.  Only maybe nicer looking.    

[Ralfufigus]

Really? I didn't get any Uncanny Valley vibes from her...

[EpicNewb]

I can live with that female at the end who wakes up from a sleep.

 

It's that Asari's face and creepy smile that bothers me.

 

Some people think she's adorable.  I think Bioware screwed up with who they thought would look good.

[turuzzusapatuttu]

[Dalinne]

I simply loved her.

If she is the PC I'm gonna love myself so much...

Actually, it does look like her armor if you compare against the combat footage.

 

If they cryo-sleep like the protheans did, they'll be asleep with armor on so they're ready to go. Kind of a good thing going into hostile territory and all.

[Ralfufigus]

Didn't think she was ugly. But hope she doesn't have a teenagers tone. She looks too young to be an experienced soldier btw.

While I agree with you, I don't really think they're going for an experienced soldier, which is okay with me.

[Deager]

Given the OP's avatar I can see his or her viewpoint (I'm going with his.) I like non-babe characters; particularly protagonists. Female leads who look like attractive females is fine, but I'm not big into the "Amazon babe" thing and I like the look of the new character in that trailer.

[capn233]

"Woman in trailer has pointy knees, and is well below my standard."

[iM3GTR]

"Listen, Shepard. We wouldn't have made you look like that but someone destroyed our supersoldier experiments back in 2183!"

[ZipZap2000]

Same, I don't mind.

[deuce985]

As long as she doesn't look like your avatar I think we'll be fine. What they showed was perfectly okay.

 

 

Sorry this is not a Japanese anime where they degrade women with unrealistic proportions. Hard to live up to those standards.

[VelvetStraitjacket]

Go away OP. You need some "me time".

[mrjack]

I don't think they are going back to the original trilogy with game cover faces (i.e Sheploo and the Fraggle), that face is probably the first preset face for women. They never make presets that are super attractive because people like to find their own way to a face they love. Everyone wants a "unique" character but if the preset is already a a stunner and you can't make something better, you feel like you've failed at CC.

 

That being said, i think she's pretty but unconventionally so. I am boring however and I like to make my characters (men and women) look like supermodels if I can.

[TheJediSaint]

I could see her being my player character.

[Shinobu]

Apart from the shine and the raccoon like makeup, I like her face. It's nice to see an ambiguously ethnic protagonist who looks like a regular person and not an underwear model. Also, ponytail.
