Well this is interessing and confusing but why looks Pressly so much different in Legendary? I mean he lost his grey / white hair and looks (much?) younger. Don´t get me wrong the new model looks fine but i must ask why the change?
Edit: Also what happened to the lovely Kelly?
Edit Nr. 2 What happened to Khalisah? I thought they used all the ME 3 model through the trilogy.

I think because the grey hair was confusing. His Grandfather served in the Alliance during the First Contact War, which was 26 years before ME1....and he looks like he's older than Anderson  Thus probably why they changed it, to make him look more late 30s/early 40s and not 50+

At least they didn't butcher him like they did some other characters like Kelly.

In this case this would make sense.
At least they didn't butcher him like they did some other characters like Kelly. At this time i wasn´t aware that they made this. But you are right this isn´t Kelly. Edit: I change the thread title so we can talk also about Kelly.

Was just saying elsewhere, it's clear that BioWare can't make the character models from 1 and 2 'work' in 3. Uncertain what the design issue is, but there clearly is one. So what happened? Every character that was only in 1 or 2 has been remade in the engine for 3. The whole game is using the modelling from 3. When we have this wonderful remaster, I'm not sure why these two characters 'looks' are a hill we want to die on?

Also how does Udina look in ME 1, ME 2 and ME 3?
Is that the ME 3 Model?

You know, even in ME3, I never liked the Kelly look because she looked like she became a harder and grittier person, lacking that soft compassionate look she had in ME2. It's understandable, considering what she might've went through after the events of ME2, but man, it's something about her brows (increased in length), something about how 'straight' her combover look on her head as opposed to the more 'texture' hair in ME2.
But to be honest, it might be too soon to tell. I want to give it a chance first so that I could take a look myself at how she actually looks under a different light or in a different angle.

lol The way this keeps up, we might have a similar premiere to Andromeda and their "tired faces." Man, why can't a video game premiere just go smoothly nowadays? There has to be some weird glitch or facial animation.

Just kinda amusing to see everyone (myself included) riled up about the change in facial models. Reminds me of the sentiments during Andromeda's release.

I'm lucky enough to have my hands on the game so I can see how good it looks. Andromeda did suffer from dead eyes and plastic barbie in a way that MELE doesn't, and MELE isn't a next-gen remake, it's a remaster of a 9-14 year old trilogy. Either way, reviews will be up in a few minutes so we'll see what everyone else thinks too.

Thanks she looks good.
So who is left who has been in ME 3? Can you please also make some pics of Septimus Oraka, Sha´ira and maybe Balak? By the way i wonder what model will use for Rana Thanoptis? I hope her ME 1 model because i really don´t like her ME 2 design.

I must say so far everything in the LE that I have seen seems really good looking. Some millage may obviously vary and even I am not thrilled with everything one hundred percent yet. Yes Kelly looks a bit weird and yes the lens flares seem over done at parts...which is more of a joke anyways...just overall though? I am really surprised. Given that they had to work with a game that is basically ten years old at this point for the base and given they still had to use Unreal 3 and not upgrade to 4 pretty much everything I have seen, which admittedly has not been much, just looks like a pretty much across the board improvement. I am actually quite impressed.

Why did they feel the need to redo Kelly of all people? Different eyes, nose, lips, hairdo, everything, and it doesn't look like much of an improvement to me.
Kelly is in ME2 and ME3, both of which were made using the Unreal 3 engine, so there's not even a technical reason for the redesign.
Who knows, maybe Kelly's original model is in the barn with Pinnacle Station.
