A matter of proportion

[Beyond The Sea]

I'm just curious how you feel about the Race proportions in Deadfire?

 

 

Roughly at same shoulder height

 

 

PoE in comparison

Dwarves too skinny, give me some bearded squares.

[Ninjamestari]

Aumaua are just a tad too tall, and Dwarves are definitely too skinny, they need boarder shoulders. Other than that, I think they're fine.

[Juodas Varnas]

I've no issues with the proportions, to be honest.

[algroth]

I have no issues with the proportions either, but I wonder if we'll have a variety of body shapes to choose from for each race too. I don't mind the 'skinny' dwarf but wouldn't mind a bulkier option as well either.

There won't be different body type options available for player characters unless Sawyer/the developers have changed their minds since then. There was some talk possible NPC model variation, but only child models are confirmed to be in (I hope that the fat, ass-scratching merchant of Adam's dreams makes it into the game as well though).

Looks fine to me and I also like that the Amoua really rowers over all the others

That is not a dwarf, that is a shorter human. Goddammit Obsidian, beign a lump of meat is THE dwarven thing. That guy needs a heavy dose of beer and beef.

The first pic looks great, the second pic is a bit weird to me. Probably because the blue orlan looks so out of place at that height.

Hmm.... perhaps beer got outlawed and all the Dwarves are malnourished? ^^

Dwarf shoulders are wider, their feet are bigger compared to human. The human gate is wider. It seems like dwarf legs are just shorter.

In Deadfire a dwarf looks taller than he was in PoE but not wider than a human.

 

I wonder if this is due to issues with animations or armor or if this was an aesthetic decision from the start.

 

 

Orlans appear skinnier too. Even if you take the big hair away their heads are still quite big. Especially with the black ring that make their already big eyes more prominent to me they look less like their own furry, animalistic Race and too much like children. But if nobody else sees it maybe I'm wrong.
