At first I was fine with Scott's default face when I first saw him in the N7 day trailer (first image), but then I found this screenshot (second one) and suddenly changed my mind. I don't know why, but he looks far worse from what I've seen on that N7 trailer shot. I hate those bland eyes. Now I'm hoping for a really good character creator. I don't think those are the same face. The first is indeed our default Scott Ryder. The second is clearly a BioWare employee's version of Casey Hudson, and it's a dead-on likeness. A++. I've been reticent to say anything, given all of the potential weirdness, but Scott Ryder looks more than a bit like me in real life. (Not Casey Hudson-Ryder.) The nose is a bit too large, but the angle's right. My eyes are green. Make the hair black, fade the sides close and cut the top a bit shorter, and it is I, Element Zero (which may or may not be my real name.) Also, my facial hair comes in better. Those may sound like a lot of changes, but we're talking about a haircut, darkening the hair and lightening the eyes. I may change my tune once I see him better. His bone structure could be off, or his nose huge. It's hard to tell. For now, though, it's a bit odd seeing him everywhere. I'm surprised it's not more weird, but I will likely use the face as a base for editing something "less me".

Male Ryder in the screenshot can look different. because this might be a custom face. We have to rememeber from previous games, that stock faces often look better, than any custom one you create. BioWare promised us good characterisation tools in ME:A this time around, so lets hope we get to create more detailed faces.

We have to rememeber from previous games, that stock faces often look better, than any custom one you create. BioWare promised us good characterisation tools in ME:A this time around, so lets hope we get to create more detailed faces. That's exactly what I am suggesting. The top pic is default Scott Ryder, as seen in all of the promotional material. The second pic looks dead-on Casey Hudson, to the point that I wonder if a BioWare employee created a Casey-clone intentionally in the Character Creator. I had been assuming we would not have higher quality defaults, as we had with Sheploo. I had figured that this game would likely be more like DAI, which featured an assortment of pregens as starting points. You have me thinking now, though. This is Mass Effect, not Dragon Age. There's no reason for me to assume they'd go as generic as DAI did. With only two human protagonists, they'd have no need to do so. Hmm. Well, if the CC doesn't output faces at least as good as the default Scott and Sara, I'll be disappointed as hell. I'd like to think that they are representative of what the CC can do.

The few times I played maleshep, I had him look like Charles Bronson. excellent.
With male Ryder, not sure who I will have him look like. Maybe have him look like a younger Clint Eastwood, if possible.

Since you mentioned weirdness, allow me to make the obligatory post. I'll be pleased to share in so many MEA journeys, in a weird, detached way. Detached is good, though, given the possibilities for krogan romance arcs and who knows what else you pervos could do with my face!

I will be going with the Default Male Shepard for Male Ryder's face if I so can do that since I prefer 100% Default Male Shepards face anytime of the day and I never customize my shepard. For the Male Ryder I will leave it the way it is on default and never change it but if I can import default Male Shepards face to replace Male Ryder's then that is what I am going to do cause male default shepard all the way
