The problem is NOT that all characters stopped looking like super models/porn stars. Yes please, insert average looking people, ugly people along beautiful people, just like in real life.
The problem is that most of the (female) characters look like LGBT rights blog activists instead of someone who could handle himself in a firefight, endure extreme physcial and psychological stress or let alone lead an exploration mission into unknown regions of space.

Why not just take real life as an inspiration for your characters? This is how fighter jet and helicopter pilots look like in real life. Certainly no male underwear models:

Why in the fuck can't I see this thread in the actual forum/subforum structure?

Oh fucking Hell, some butthurt Codex SJW cunt who put me on ignore started the thread, I bet. Well, this IS a BioWare thread, so that's highly appropriate.

Dexter lol

That's actually a problem, dude.

Oh my God go and watch some footage form this game, especially some ending clips, on JewTube. This is so fucking bad, I literally cannot grasp it, it's ten times worse than ME3 in every way. Oh God .

The male Ryder also looks like some sort of hipster fag. These characters not only look like that but also talk and act like some quirky faggots. Biowaru writing xDD

U shitting me right? How is it even possible for something to be worse than ME3? I mean, I thought it was pretty much the consensus, that ME3 was the 0 Fahrenheit of videogames... How, just how can this be worse?

This I can't understand either. Even in the original ME, the main default characters looked kinda badass, both the male and female Shepard. But here the default characters are like whiney teenagers. It's similar to the trend in movies, where you see less and less 30-40 year old action heroes, but instead the supposedly badass characters are played by young and pretty looking 20 year olds. Who buys that crap?
Like in the series 24. Here is the grizzled, old, badass Jack Bauer:

And here is his "successor":

Yeah, totally intimidating.

 

[Popiel]

It is, believe me. I would never believe it myself, so I understand you.

There's an entire genre of RPGs known for doing this that has been quite successful.

It went to awkwardly and unsuccessfully colonize another galaxy.

You know, if I needed to colonize a distant galaxy, I too would send a bunch of faggots and absolutely no families whatsoever—the mission might fail, but at least I'll be able to teach people that the nuclear family is evil and that groups of self-centered, childish, childless idiots who rely on technology to accomplish even the most minor tasks are the way of the future.

This is funny...Don't know how big a deal Giant Bomb is but here's a podcast of an Irish guy listening to three of their reviewers totaly shitting on the game...



Just look at the guy on the left of the screens reaction face at the start of the clip...
...I've listened to about 20 minutes or so of the three guys who have played it, coming out with more and more they hated from the game, you think they're going to stop and then another guy rembers some more shitty stuff, like the throwaway lines during combat or driving the not-mako...

"When Ryder lands on an ice planet she says to her companions, we don't know what to expect out here, so stay frosty."
"When Ryder is driving the Mako (or whatever) two of her companions start arguing and Ryder says if you guys don't quit it I'm turning this car around."
"Ryder says to one of her companions an off hand comment...The snark is strong with this one."

The guy on the left fucking hates the game, he was supposed to review it but he couldn't stand any more than 15 hours or so, so he played Wildlands instead.:D

It seems that most gaming sites have turned a corner and are really hating this, even IGN and Polygon find it impossible to rate any more than 7.5 or 7.7...

The metacritic score is being artificially inflated by unknown nobodies who write Spanish blogs, one guy gives it 95! Just take a look for yourself at the highest scores across all the platforms on metacritic, if you could select a top critics button like on rotten tomatos the score would drop to 7 or below

Yeah, I feel you man. Hell, many average, everyday (I mean, not from a tv show or anything) army girls, as well, look hot in a normal way, or normal in a hot way. FFS. Why nobody at bioware ever bothered to google up "girls of IDF"?

Have you seen the people working at BW? This is their revenge for non-hideous girls laughing at their attempts at romantic advances. Remember that femRyder flirting with a redhead video? Yeah.

 

[Jokzore]

The part i find hilarious is that the premise and concept of the character doesn't actually change to fit the actor.The result is a character with tons of experience and expertise who had time to develop multiple careers ,retire and have a long standing history with the story's villain yet they look like a teen barely out of highschool whos biggest concern until yesterday was who kissed Jessica under the bleachers and weather or not hes gonna flunk that one chemistry test.

Is that the crazy asari? Maybe, just maybe... someone, somewhere on the ship probably opened the hatch and shoved her out? Not bad.

Or maybe it's just another bug.
