These faces are so ugly. It makes me not want to play the game. ok, we've let this post run a little, i'd like to have a go at answering the OP (for all the good it will do): Breaking down the OP's points: - These faces are so ugly
- It makes me not want to play the game.
- Why do the SJW's have to ruin games like this?
1. These faces are so ugly Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but judging by the OP's avatar, the OP has a preference for pale-skinned, slim boned women, Leliana, Morrigan, etc. Those preferences do not mean that other women are ugly (even if they are not the OP's 'preference') nor is it unreasonable for BioWare to portray differing character models. By keeping harping on about this, one might start to suppose that the OP's issues go beyond simple facial preferences. 2. It makes me not want to play the game. Deciding to not play the game is down to the OP's choice. On the same basis that it unreasonable to expect BioWare to limit female character design to the narrow definition of beauty the OP prefers, it is also unreasonable to expect everyone else to agree, so the choice to play, or not to, is entirely down to the OP. Amazingly, the OP has a big issue with the default female protagonist whose face can be altered to the OP's taste. In summary, some characters failing to be modeled to the OP's limited personal preference, is not an alt-left plot. In my view...

Who cares how hot the women and men are. As long as they make the new Mako hot enough, to bang i'll be happy.

My only problem with this two is that Sara looks like if she was 13 and the other one looks like 12.

They all met up at the round table and decide from that point forward to go out of their way to make any and all featured women and available female romances as ugly and mannish looking as they possibly can.

Thank the gods for modding... but I guess as long as all white males are evil and/or dead, everything goes with BW these days.

The chance was 50/50. *shrugs* Dunno, PeeBee does look a bit rough in motion, but there is also is a big uncanny valley potential with the facial designs... they aren't outright ugly, but they can be odd in certain frames.

I'm not saying she's necessarily beautiful or attractive, but she's certainly not mannish or ugly. Of course in certain situation the face might look weird, but that's not due to the design, but the facial animation. That happened in the trilogy as well with Shepard's creepy stare.

There's already an ugly chicks thread in the characters forums. Think we could keep this kind of crap to a single thread at least?

I mean, it's fantasy/scifie, why have (visually) bland characters if you can help it?

First of all, the female characters in Inquisition didn't look that bad.
Second, it's nothing new for games to have female characters who aren't the pinnacle of attractiveness. This has nothing to do with SJWs.

They have to be doing it on purpose. Bioware is perfectly capable of making attractive females. They still do make good looking men.
Now it's like they've decided to make the women as ugly as possible.
Inquisition was the worst. I really hope they don't go down that same road again.

I mean, it's fantasy/scifie, why have (visually) bland characters if you can help it? I don't think the companions shown so far look bland. Peebee looks like an asari, aside for her mask thing she doesn't look different. I don't think she's that worse looking then Liara in ME. Beside, people did complain about other female squadmates as well in the other games. Both Ashely and Miranda received a lot of criticism, with the latter filling the same criticism on the thread about looking like a man (specifically, Micheal Jackson). Same thing happened with Aveline and Isabela about their face being mannish, and Merrill was criticized as well. Criticism of women characters in Bioware games, about them being ugly or even mannish happened long before Inquisition. People just tend to forget (plus we don't all share the same opinions. We have people that believe the LI in DAI were beautiful/hot). On Sara, apparently the work on her is behind Scott. And not all npcs looked well in the past. My point is, we have seen very little of the women in the game, and maybe only one humanoid LI (Peebee). It's too early to draw any conclusions.

Now it's like they've decided to make the women as ugly as possible. Inquisition was the worst. I really hope they don't go down that same road again. Before I delve into this post, I'd like to add another point that some other people have alluded to: while some traits, for biological reasons, are generally considered to be more attractive than others, preferences also vary between individuals. As for your post, intentionally making all the characters "ugly" would be a terrible marketing strategy, since they would be foregoing the advantage gained by using sex appeal in their advertising. Bioware does have some issues rooted in ideology, but even I don't think they're that far gone. They're still a company that has to make money. Lastly, I put forth Vetra as evidence that not all the characters in Andromeda are unattractive :^)

I don't think Peebee is unattractive as well. There are far worse looking asari in the trilogy then her.
