The CC is very limited: I planned to make a Ryder similar to my avatar, but scrapped that after a few seconds in the CC. As is it's just about finding something passable for me. I tried making a caucasian using one of the black presets, but the skintone doesn't get light enough, so its still a bit on the dark side: Im thinking of starting an asian female Ryder, as I do like how that one preset can turn out. Yeah, I haven't yet seen a single attractive female caucasian made with this CC. I know beauty is subjective, but that's been my personal reaction so far and I've looked at a lot of people's attempts. I'm beginning to think it's simply not possible with the current presets and limited sliders.

Yes, don't worry, I think your Ryder looks really cute! But I too was planning on making a caucasian female, and seeing everyone struggle so much with something that should be so simple is pretty disheartening.

Welp. I spent about 30 minutes in CC and cranked most of the sliders all the way to the left and right, as far as possible from the defaults, but she still looks like she's the twin of all the Ryders who used the same preset. I decided not to waste any more of my 10 hours after that and jumped straight into the game. Might try again when the full game is out. Gotta say though I was pleasantly surprised by the eyes, after all; they don't look as dead as I expected if you add some dark outer colour. PSA: That eyeshadow was a mistake and I regret my life choices. Oh, ouch! Might be okay in a different colour, but in that beige it just makes your eyelids look all pixelly. I feel for you! Otherwise, she looks great!

I feel like that eyeshadow was meant to be a smokey, super blended out look but somewhere along the line someone broke the texture and they just never fixed it. The lipstick I can understand, since I take it it's a reference to one of Padme's signature makeup looks in the Star Wars prequels. But what the hell is that eyeshadow referencing? You can't even do that with eyeshadow!

The CC would be a bit less disappointing if they would just allow us to modify the defaults. If they are going to add to the CC with the day one patch, then I like to think it would be an easy implement---compared to most.

I'm seeing some HOT Ryders, both male and female but I still can't shake that a lot of them look fairly similar to each other. Ugh...I feel boxed IN by this CC like I said before.
If we can't change our fucking noses and eyes with presets, then they need to add MORE presets..like 10 or 15 more.

You can't even do that with eyeshadow! I think you could do it with liquid liner and a skinny lip brush... It's interesting to say the least.

I tried my luck with the CC twice. It's crap. The only reason to use the CC is if you want Ryder to be of a different race or have clown hair and makeup just for the lols. I'll be playing through as the default male for the first time ever in a Bioware game. Not impressed.

Don't be too optimistic about day 1 patch. They said they would fix the animation but it still looks bad. If the devs thought including interchangeable eyebrows was too challenging, we might not be getting anything other than a few extra features. They said they would fix the animations too, and Sara is still smiling all the time.

I'm in access, the CC is really bad. It's a downgrade from DAI. That weird moment when you agree with Dutch.

They said they would fix the animations too, and Sara is still smiling all the time. Well the animations look a lot better now than what i saw in that first 13 minutes video from IGN. In the prologue i didn't really notice any jank with them at all. I will agree that some of the expressions are a bit off according to the tone of the scene, but when they talk it looks decent. Also the frog lips have been fixed, which was a blessing. So they have atleast done something about it, but it should've been better from the get go.

I really want to see someone to mess around with the 2# female face, only because I think she's supposed to be caucasian? Alec seemed to be if you choose her so I'd like to know what she looks like from the side and how pale I can make her...also how narrow I can make her face *looks at 8's lovely face structure and cries*. I tried like hell to make #2 a pretty white gal (you can get a fairly pale skin option on that one). She looked...OK in the CC. But in game? She looked terrible. I mean...bad. Really bad. Like, malformed. So no, you cannot make her face narrow because it makes her look non-human from the side. Also, she has MAJOR wrinkles on her forehead when she animates in game. I tried to take a screenshot, but it crashed everything (sorry!). So then I loaded up and did the default Sarah. That was just awful. The edges of her eyes are pale blue and she looks like such a damned derp. And her skin texture is beyond icky. I mean, she looks sick and pasty. Uggg! The, after spending 1/2 hr to 45 minutes trying to make a decent gal outta the blond one (#5, I think?), and messing around with the only other option that has a fair skin color (the one with the giant eyes, don't recall the number), I gave up trying to make an attractive Caucasian. In my opinion, it is not possible in this game. I am now rolling a #1 Asian gal...with red hair and green eyes (hey...it's the future). She is the only one with decent looking skin, a pretty mouth, and a well-proportioned face. She looks great and fits the voice well, so I am going to roll with that as my canon. Disappointed...but at least the game is pretty good!

The fact that they let us upload our CCs to a database to share with other people seems like a cruel joke right now, considering I am pretty confident that perhaps 80 or 90% of the time people's Ryder will look the same anyways, outside of the intentionally-made-joke-characters.

Okay... phone stuff sorted (bricked but I have backups and Google is replacing for free under warranty, hurray) and went back to the CC. Ended up only changing the beard and eyes from what I had before... but forgot to screencap the changed eyes. (Should blue blue): So that's more or less what I'll roll with next week. It's... not far off from what I was aiming for, but his nose isn't quite right and I really, really wish I could tweak his eye shape more. Oh well, it'll do. Sis Ryder I'm not as attached to. Got something to start with but I may change her hair: That's probably about all the screencaps I'll have for now; I'm not playing the trial, I don't want to get into the story just yet. Saved the numbers for my sliders so I can quickly recreate the Ryders on the 21st (maybe the 20th - if I get a chance Monday night I'll jump into the game a few hours earlier )
