Found a good quality shot of the Khett image from Game Informer: i.imgur.com/OlmKvNV.jpgDespite what it may look like, this Khett does have pupils. Said pupils looks somewhat reptillian in shape and size. It also looks like its face has scale-like texture. It's interesting that the Khett wear clothes given that it looks like they have an exoskeleton. If you look at the chest, you can see what looks to be some of this underneath it. The pants actually looks like it has holes on the sides to accomendate the armor. This whole getup looks too human. The weapon, the gloves, the armor (in the trailer it even had the same glowing weapon slots). I expected things to be something entirely different and alien. In the MilkyWay I supposed that all the weapons and armor are looking more or less similar in the general design since you could say that the different species learned each other technologies, but this time in the Andromeda galaxy, I expected something else. I have to say I'm deeply disappointed by this design. It is exactly what whey are doing in Star Trek, where all the aliens share the same bipedal features and even general weapons usage. This right here. The Salarians and Collectors and hanar at least attempted to be creative.

Michael Gamble @gamblemikeLook really closely Lee Kaburis @lkaburis it took me a few views but I got it! The nomad looks sick!, petty about the lack of guns tho', i'll always remember the times when i could ram a geth with the mako and then shoot it in the dick head with a 105mm smoothbore gun, all while listening "the team america's song". INCREDIBLE JAY @kerrvillestis Liam the guy we saw in the 5days left countdown post from last week Ian S. Frazier @tibermoonWell... If you see a character, and that character does not have awesome hair, he's probably not Liam. Bioware?, doing awesome hair?.

About the Khet's hoop loop.
Probably the artist's inspiration to design an alien that looks different. As the studio mentioned in the past, "it's hard work designing aliens".

I hear you. Maybe it's a race to see who gets to the enemy first?
The scene also depicts flying craft. Does that mean we will see them in the game?

Why is the Nomad charging into battle? It has no offensive capabilities. Because it's a playstation ad. Which has no reason being there unless they have some exclusivity deal which reeaaally makes me hope not. They only ever put stuff in there they own, or have advertisement writes (which usually happens due to some BS money deal). Least as far as I've noticed anyway, could be wrong on that. But you never saw CoD stuff until MS stopped paying for timed exclusive stuff letting Sony get it this time. The only reason I'm even remotely scared about that? Sony 'Exclusives' have proven over the years to be exclusive or extremely longly timed. Like a set of armor you can't get any other way or in AC games it would usually be an exclusive mission you could only play on PS. Hopefully it's something uninteresting. Maybe it'll just be bonus xp in MP lol. Or maybe my fear is unfounded and it's just because MEA is on the 'Pro'. ,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-(_MEA_)-,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸
Speaking of playstation, the Pro has TV problems galore, no matter the make of the TV.
The PS4 Pro has issues with the likes of Samsung, LG, Sony, Vizio, Philips + Different brands of AV receivers and sound bars. A Google search reveals all.

Huh, haven't heard of any issues with TV's directly. Just that some games running in there Pro settings after the Pro patch (that sounds dumb) have been running worse then a bog standard PS4. Few exceptions, Tomb Raider apparently runs fantastically. Think the PS4 slim also has some plugins removed. Like it no longer has an optic out, but the Pro does?
I dunno wtf Sony is doing with that honestly, but I haven't been one to follow Sony since I had to deal with em with EQ all those years back.

This whole getup looks too human. The weapon, the gloves, the armor (in the trailer it even had the same glowing weapon slots). I expected things to be something entirely different and alien. In the MilkyWay I supposed that all the weapons and armor are looking more or less similar in the general design since you could say that the different species learned each other technologies, but this time in the Andromeda galaxy, I expected something else. I have to say I'm deeply disappointed by this design. It is exactly what whey are doing in Star Trek, where all the aliens share the same bipedal features and even general weapons usage. This right here. The Salarians and Collectors and hanar at least attempted to be creative. I don't see what is exactly creative of either species, design wise. I can understand if you mean in terms of their species' biology, maybe, but we have no clue on the Kett at the moment.

I never saw the salarians or hanar as BioWare's best stretch of the creative muscles, since honestly, I thought the salarians looked like your fairly generic grey alien 👽 and the hanar just looked like pink netch from the Elder Scrolls.
I thought turians, quarians and the yahg were slightly more creative or at least distinct.

This right here. The Salarians and Collectors and hanar at least attempted to be creative. As @prince E has said, salarians were basically typical vision of aliens since 50s. Hanars are pink jellyfish. In terms of design, Quarians, Elcor and Turians are original, and maybe you can consider too Collectors/Protheans, Volus and Krogan. What makes them creative as especies is the Salarian short life expectancy, they live and process information fast, good especies background thanks to great characters (Kirrahe, Mordin, Padok, Jon Bau...) For the Hanar, it was unexpected and intriguing their religious ways, their speech pattern, their relationship with other alien especies as the Drell. The design of Kett is hot OK, probably not the most original if you compare it with the rest of especies they created, but we have to wait to know more about their culture, their speech pattern, politics, and if they are romanceable why are our enemies.

Just like we saw at the latest PS show... Yeah that's not usually how it works though. Sony (and MS back when they did this) usually don't throw money at something 'just' so they can expend more money advertising it. Or often times the money is actually a contract that they'll do all the advertising which cuts costs on publisher side since they don't have to dump those resources just to let people know there games coming. What I mean is, theres usually more in it for Sony/MS then just them doing the advertisement. Course we haven't seen any actualy 'PlayStation' crop up at the end of trailers yet. If we start seeing that at the end, theres probably some exclusive pre-order shit. But that's all later when advertisement actually kicks up (real advertisement, not these showcases/info dumps). That PS ad with a hidden Nomad in it could of just been a thing cause of the Pro yeah. edit: On the Kett, the Salarian example is a pretty good one. Often time what makes an alien race interesting has more to do with the details of their lives then how they look visually. Thankfully none of the aliens are just human 2.0, they always have something oddball about em. Can't see the Kett being any different.

So far, I believe Bio artists have done good work with the aliens from ME1-3 and now the Khet. When Bio said " designing aliens is hard work", I understood it's more than an artists concept sketch. The hard work is making them believable. This article, I found interesting, regarding making aliens believable:

Pardon moi while I stomp on Hrungr and Lady Sif's toes again. Michael Gamble Retweeted George Broussard @georgeb3dr Game development in a pie chart. (lol) Michael Gamble @gamblemikeSo, what do you guys think of the Pathfinder helmet vs the old N7 helmet? A surprising amount of design went into both!
It's worth noting, though, that the term "Pathfinder Helmet" has been associated with who distinctly different designs so far. The Andromeda Initiative rewards include this one: But then the other day the Bioware page tweeted that other image of the N7 branded helmet with full visor, and it was also dubbed "Pathfinder Helmet" I assume Mike was referring to the N7 one. The naming conflict might just be a semantic thing to indicate that only Ryder can wear the AI rewards. But who knows!
