Hair in Andromeda

LOL And a first cutscene with your Ryder doing something like:

 

This isn't even strictly a Bioware thing, but more hairstyles with bangs, please.

Like, fuck man. I'm so tired of seeing every character's forehead in every game I play. Lemme have something with some length. Parting your hair down the middle is gross. It never looks good. Please.

Hawke in DAII had the best hair, though a little too "styled" for my tastes. Too bad only the default Hawke was allowed to have it!

Oh, FemHawke had great hair too. It wasn't even all that "feminine". Give me hair like that. If mine was straight, that's how I'd wear it.

Beat me to it. Best hair in a video game by a long way, it really shows how poor Bioware is.

I mean look at that Hair. Just look at it move - even the animation when she comes out of water and wrings out her ponytail is a bajillion times better than anything Bioware has ever done.

LOOK AT THAT HAIR BIOWARE! Loooooook at it!

Yes I am a 37yr old man getting worked up about hair. It's serous stuff.

Incidentally I have complete sympathy with women now when it comes to hair, the daily battle I have with my two year old to dry and brush her comparatively long hair makes the reapers seem a doddle.

Nah they move:

Tell you what, just for you I'll record one later to show you how good it is

yeah it's really impressive but what you have to remember is Lara is the only one with the fancy hair and the reason for that is it takes a lot of resources to create it. I don't expect them to make it this good because that's not going to happen. At least not when your playing a game where your character isn't the only one with that kind of hair. I think what they should do and what it looks like they are doing is to at least get it on par with DA2  and at least give us hair that dosen't look and feel static and helmet heady It would be nice if they could give us Lara croft style hair that moves in the wind but I don't think that'll happen. At least not until the resources aer there to a point that they can give it to all characters. I think they have made steps in the right direction though with MEA

I double this. Pure Hair is an awesome technique, but when I was playing TR I had to shut it off because it dropped my framerate about TWENTY frames. Of course they are experimenting new resources and proving this is possible, but as I said, long or smooth hairs are a dificult thing to animate when you have the posibility to create your own character.

But yes, BioWare can do better and let's hope for the best options. At least three or four bald styles, not fifty.

"at least looks like it is from this decade" > AHAHAHA, yes, yes, absolutely.

I do have hope to see more styles this time

It may not look top tier but when your game uses a CC it might make things more difficult on the resource front I don't know as most games don't have a CC whereas Bioware's do. I'd say personally it does look in general better graphically than DAI though and by general I'm not just talking about the hair but the whole package so let's wait and see what else the game has in store. I don't like judging a game on just one thing becaus eeven though this was an area they fell short in with DAI the game for me at least makes up for it in other areas.

It does I think Cora's hair moved slightly in the latest trailer as well. My feeling is the hair will be a bit more DA2 like in that we won't necessarily see it moving around as if it's moving in the wind like in Tomb Raider but we will have some physics in that it'll bounce around a bit as we run around on our missions or on the Tempest.
