Supposedly the character creator is based on The Sims and yet they don't let you mold the characters like you can in The Sims 4. You still need to use a boatload of sliders to customize the body and face.
Also, that guy looks like that Firbolg race from D&D, you know, like the ruined version of the race invented by Critical Role and not any of the good versions of the race from even from fifth edition. If he was blue and his nose red you might confuse him as such.
So they took elements of Sims 4 but none of **** that actually matters.

Brilliant display by the geniuses at BioWare.

If I remember correctly, EA had a patent on that system, so you would think they would also let Bioware implement it here so as to make the character creator seem more advanced than the competition. Though I'm not sure it would work well since Dragon Age: The Veilguard still has that weird political stuff in it like the top scars.

Wha exactly is the mental pathology that causes a person to see characters like that and find them appealing? This is beyond coomerism or mere style: It feels as if the characters are designed to be ugly, unappealing, uncomfortable to look at or plainly unheroic. There's something wrong with it.

What do you think bros, can hair tech save Veilgourd?

On the bright side, I think this site is about to host some more mods.

Because those things, alongside the romances, are to appeal to women and pooners. What is funny is that the lead designer is a ***** and he thinks in his porn sick head that his design choices will bring in masses upon masses of women to play Dragon Age. After all he is a totes real woman so he knows what women want in their games. This **** show just gets more funnier by the day.

I can understand making a game that focuses on a specific niche. I however don’t understand spending multiple of tens in millions using the skin suit of once beloved franchise that’s destined to bomb.

Sometimes I wonder if there any adults in the room asking if green lighting such a project was a good idea.

I'm going to have to wait and see before I laugh my *** off at Bioware's misfortune. After all RPG's tend to sell better on PC than they do on consoles. However, the fact that Deadname is low on the Steam wishlist charts is not a good sign for this game.

They released a video of the character creator.
It focuses on hairstyles and tattoos.

First, behold a "qunari" you can make using this filth:
► Show Spoiler
It has vitiligo to mix human skin colors with *******, of course.
► Show Spoiler
Females can't get above a b-cup, 100% on the "glutes" slider is a flatter *** than most guys, hips are those of a 13 year old boy.
► Show Spoiler
► Show Spoiler
The options (note the very faggily important "bulge size")
► Show Spoiler
This is an actual default body shape option. For an elf, as you see.

You can select mastectomy scars (for real) and even have the ability to customize them

You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.

I love the character generation, could not have been better, I will thoroughly enjoy this burning out.

The only decent Dragon age was the first one anyways.

Because in the Dragon Age universe, where bloodmagic exists, they have double masectomies as performed by modern surgeons.

Deranged tumblrinas want to make pretty boys kiss, or self-insert as the hottie that all the male NPCs lust after. Not even they are going to bother with this trainwreck.

The preorder numbers are abysmal.

This thing is exclusively made for the modern audience, as in, nobody.

But that would require them to admit that they are the freaks in the first place, which in turn requires self-reflection.

I believe some of them have gone on record saying that they "would rather burn the industry down in ashes than let anti-SJW chuds have a say in it". It was a modern comic book writer who said this I think, but their mentality is the same to modern game devs.
