I see people are now accusing Asmon's video of grift... I thought people could already tell it didn't make sense? Honestly, it's stupid that people do this shit. You can have a problem with the stylization choice or wanting more CC option, but why the hell do you have to manipulate images in order to justify your point? Just say it. It's the same thing with people manipulating that one image of Aloy from Horizon: Zero Dawn. Sadly you’re overestimating outraged gamers.

I mean it isn't just a few people saying this. Pretty sure that YouTuber stole it from this reddit thread but several artists are in that thread saying the proportions are off from baseline ratios. https://www.reddit.com/r/dragonage/comments/1fllp8l/dav_spoilers_are_the_proportions_bothering_anyone/ Just a head up for those who avoid spoilers. This thread has a screenshot with a big spoiler regarding Lucanis.

Kala Elizabeth was talking about it too. It's worth noting that "realistic" proportions aren't the same thing as "baseline" proportions, because in media there will always be exaggerations to better parse on a screen and at multiple camera angles.
Asmongold is still trash though, obviously.

I tested Lucanis using a full-length body shot. His proportion is 7.5:1 I'm not sure what's going on with the examples cited. Must be camera angles. In a nutshell, the 'bobblehead' theory is bunk.

Yeah. I'm saying this as an artist, as well, and I stand by it 100%. It was my visceral, immediate reaction and opinion upon seeing the trailer and then the character creator. I had not seen or read anyone else's take on it. It's funny now seeing other's impressions, I'm low-key like "Great, so I'm not going crazy and don't need a new pair of eyes, phew". xD It's obviously not a dealbreaker. I've said it from the start: the art direction isn't my favorite. Question marks all over it. I'm very... I've always had a very critical eye, especially re: graphics, anything visual... I mean, that's my thing, it's just how I'm wired. But I'll deal with it. Honey, I'd play the crap out of Dragon Age, if they'd actually made it into a Disney, Pixar, Fortnite kinda game. Zero Fs. I'd still enjoy it!

I’m not an artist, so I am not sure of the specifics. However, I do know the art style for the character models is off-putting and cartoony in a way it wasn’t for me for the previous Dragon Age games when they came out. It is the art style in general and not if I find one particular character attractive or not. This has been a common criticism for the game. Bioware picked a divisive art style.

It's not a Bioware joint unless it's divisive.

Edit: May contain spoilers for Lucanis in images https://www.reddit.com/r/dragonage/comments/1fllp8l/dav_spoilers_are_the_proportions_bothering_anyone/ There are some interesting images in this thread.

Scott Ryder up there is a 7 head midget though - the red line is not the base he's standing on. It's like he's cheating by standing on his tiptoes.
