i don't believe that Bioware can do anything about the animations even if they tried but if by some miracle they do, they better keep the old animations as an option

The animations don't really bother me, they're pretty funny most of the time even if they pull you out of the story. The only question I have is how did it happen? They've made 3 of these games already.

Zikan posted:they limited the character designer so their procedural tech to generate a dad ryder that looks like you could work It doesn't really work, though. I picked the number 9 femryder as a base, made her lighter to be more hispanic, and then made my brother one of the asian defaults (I forgot to actually customize him.) Our dad ended up being a black guy with kinda bugged-out eyes that looked like neither of us (but DID look like he was related to the number 9 base for dude ryder.) Actually, from what I've seen of other people's dadryders, there's just a different dad mesh for each of the presets. The skin tone and eyes might change color, but I am pretty sure the head mesh doesn't. drink Dr Pepper actually fucked around with this message at 23:56 on Mar 22, 2017 |

Sombrerotron posted:Yes which is why I hope there'll a lot angry mobbing about ME:A's character creator as well. Creating better animations would be very welcome too of course, but I'm not holding my breath for that because that must be a massive undertaking. character creators are cool but not cool enough to wish being stalked and harassed by mentally ill manchildren upon someone which is what was happening with ME3

You can't romance Liara and recruit her late at the same time, but please, make the right decision.

Not even the skin, but otherwise it's exactly as you described it. The DadRyder generation only really gives a poo poo about which preset you pick. I made a preset 9 and turned her as Caucasian as possible and my dad was still the preset 9 dad. Someone on Reddit posted the exact same thing:

Boo to BioWare! Boo!!

Popete posted:The animations don't really bother me, they're pretty funny most of the time even if they pull you out of the story. It's a little weird, but when they moved to the new engine they seemed to get ambitious with the animations early on. We saw this in some leaked footage over a year ago; stuff like Peebee's face in the OP was originally much smoother and more complex. What someone with animation experience earlier in the thread mentioned was that this probably made poo poo too complicated to actually ship, and rather than go through and simplify them in an intelligent but time consuming manner, in the name of "optimization" they just pulled the points of articulation out of the skeletons entirely, leaving the animation that was now missing to either be auto-generated or simply filled in on the fly. It's also possible that the team that is currently handling Mass Effect is simply not the team that handled the trilogy. Several proud Bioware employees are fans who came aboard after Mass Effect 2, and it's been five years since ME3! Any team is going to experience turn over, but the Mass Effect team went through significant leadership burnthrough as well, and even a well meaning and talented team can be squandered by bad or absent leadership.

Kallo and Suvi were yelling at me to go check out Eos after I did the main mission on Voeld. I didn't but maybe that means it cleared up more.

Regardless of who/if you romance in ME1 it's pretty obvious the writers were expecting you'd pick the blue spacebabe as nothing about Liara's character in ME2 makes any sense if she was just an acquaintance, or worse, if you recruited her last.

I made a preset 9 and turned her as Caucasian as possible and my dad was still the preset 9 dad. My lily white Ryder is preset 9 as well, with a default brother, and THAT is how my dad looked, as well. I kinda yelped "what!?" when I saw him. I thought for a moment that maybe I had accidentally saved the brother as a custom preset by accident. But nope. My dad is space Laurence Fishburne.

Liara's character still worked for me as a good buddy, went with Jack for the romance. Her doing her thing with Shadow Broker DLC and whatnot fits whether or not you romanced her I'd say.

Welp, first gamebreaking bug encountered. On Voeld, if you attack the Kett Labour Camp and free the prisoners before you're given the quest to do so, you can't really free them -- they just stand in their now-open cages looking sad and you can't advance. Since it's a Priority Mission, that means you can't advance the main plot.
