    First off, i love Dragon Age and want this game to be good, so let me say this. I really apreciatte all the options they added to make your character, the hair and its physics in special are marvelous. I really love options, i love to have the possibility to make your character the exact way you want. Being able to make unconventional (or ugly if this is what you want) characters is allways a positive. However, as options i also want the possibility to make conventionally atractive characters if i want. Where are the softer facial features? Where are the bigger bust/glutes sizes? Can i make a woman that is chubby but also very well endowed like my lovely wife? Can i make a delicate elf woman? Or everyone has squared jaws? I love options, but they have to expand in every direction, and so far i do not see this here. I get lots of people worked hard on this but this does not mean the final proudct will be any good, you can work very hard on something that is just not good or worthwhile.

It seens we just dont have the option to make a delicate or "girly" woman for the people that want It. Also, consider the oposite, what If someone wants a male character that is cute in a soft way? Or a strong physique with a big muscular back end? If we talking diversity all those kind of people i am talking about exist and should be possible to make in a game like this. They spent a decade on this and millions of dollars, this must be deliberate choice. And i hope that the story and gameplay delivers because (visual) character creation surely is not for me at the time.

    I think my issue overall is the change of artstyle fitting something too... much like Overwatch. There's this sense that all the female models and bone structure is too masculine. I've seen several examples and there's just not a single female preset I've seen so far that I grew to enjoy.
    And the Quanari still look atrocious to look at. I hate how clean they are, and how awful their horns transition from skin.

      Skin tones, tints and text fields (he/him, male/female) are incredibly cheap to implement. Every different body shape increases complexity as all costumes need to be made to work with them. As the fidelity of graphics increase customization systems get more and more expensive to make.

    Both the character creator and actual gameplay looks good. It’s a bit similar to both Baldur's Gate 3 and Dragon's Dogma 2, but it does have some unique features on its own in terms of hairstyle, factions, costume design and tattoos. As for the gameplay, the combat is a bit similar to God of War Ragnarok and the exploration is almost like Tales of Arise. And all four of these games I’ve mentioned are some of my favorites in my library of PS5 Games.
