Cartoonish, in that the example given (the Clone Wars Obi-wan) didn't look like something I'd want my character to look like. Now you're questioning the validity of whether saying they look cartoonish is "proof" enough that it's a bad idea? Weird, I figured that would be valid enough without giving more reasons.
So I'll say it simply: I think the idea is stupid because I think it makes the game more "cartoonish" in appearance (ie. focussed on the 12 and under crowd) instead of looking like a beautifully detailed "young adult/adult" game.
Also, I'd like to point out that my first response was also in direct reply to the suggestion we should "be able to make our own clothes", hence the Barbie dress up comment. I don't want the developers spending their time coding it so the players can create every single imagineable clothing style out there. I'd rather they spent their time on making sure that what's in the game works perfectly (or as near perfect as computer games can get).
Making different styles of clothes are what modders are for (and if you look at some of the KOTOR 1 mods, they look spectacular), but not something to waste the developers' time on. In other words, I'd rather the developers get the game out on time with no bugs, rather than have delays all because some insignificant "extra", such as being able to make our own clothes, isn't working properly.
Clear and simple enough? Geeze.
