sorophx Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 well, elves are still humans with pointy ears.

Oner Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 They look good to me."Distinct racial physiology is an opportunity to explore different standard of beauty".Horned human woman with gray skin, human woman, pointy eared human women, short statued human woman. Veeery different beauty standards right there.

Morgoth Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 The artworks are okay, nothing wrong with them. Did people expect them to put the torso of the female Quanri on a cow or what? Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oner Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) No, I expect them to A) not write something stupid like this under a collection of humanoid creatures, B) if they do, then really make them different - not every race has to prefer big breasts or whatever.

Slowtrain Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 What's so different? They all look like they adhere to preciesly the same standards of beauty. Did Bioware write that caption? Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

deganawida Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Anyone else notice that the human female is putting her hand on the human male's thigh, and looking at him, while all the other females are looking to their left? Thought it was funny. The dwarf female makes no sense. Her lower half is the part that is slightly out-of-proportion with respect to a normal human (and, no, I don't mean that she's fat; you won't find a bigger fan of women like Christina Hendricks than me). Meanwhile, the dwarf male's torso is out-of-proportion to a normal human. Shouldn't they both have either slightly too-large torsos, or slightly too-large legs/hips?

Meshugger Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 They look pretty good actually as long as you accept that different races have the same (human) beauty standards.

Slowtrain Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Just ignore the text and it's fine. Sure. I've got nothing against cartoon fantasy. My only comment would be that if Bioware wrote that text, they would be seem (seem?) to be overly impessed with themselves. It's fine for what it is, no need for BW to try to make it anything more.

Niten_Ryu Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Axing toolset makes sense. Easier to sell DLCs (for those who are stupid enough to buy 'em) when community can't create content or balance fixes. Let's play Alpha Protocol My misadventures on youtube.

Orogun01 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Races look fine, pity Bio had to reach with the stupid slogan - come on, no one's to blame but themselves with any ridicule they get from this. It looks like every other generic creature from a JRPG, which is probably what DA is turning into. On top-down: Now, the game mainly sold on console, so we're going the way of the audience" Maybe that's the reason they're making everything Mass Effect? Pity.

Volourn Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) "No tool-set either? LAME" DA's toolset sucked anyways. No great loss. "What about their set goals and vision for DA being the successor of BG." That was DA1. Not DA2. PLus, ME2's greater success proves that BIO's fans don't want a successor to BG. I blame the Codex, btw, since they much prefer ME2 to DA anyways. Edited August 8, 2010 by Volourn DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
