Viera and Hrothgar clans detailed on official site

[Gula]

Because she was made by Core Designs, a British company.

My point is that she's SE's gal now. And the poster is saying Square Enix favors X. Adam Jensen was Eidos' product but now, Deus Ex is Square Enix. Meaning SE isn't the one dictating designs and hovering over people's shoulders saying they must have pale skin and fair hair. Someone from the company itself overseeing marketing and long term projects could say to the design team, "This wont work." But they are not there with a pen and paper drawing it out for them. That's the character designer's job.

Producers don't mess with what sells, and Laura being a brunet in a tank top sells.

Either you're ignoring what I'm saying or it's not hitting home. Is Lara Croft a character with Square Enix behind her name? Yes or No? Your answer should be Yes. So to this end, is SE giving her white hair because they- the whole company favor it? Yes or no?

It's actually no. The character wasn't created by SE at all.

That wasn't the question though.

This thread makes me sad.

Anyhoo, with the link posted earlier, these are some interesting updates to the Hrothgar.


I'm curious if these will be alternate options, or if they are tweaking the models as we get closer to the actual release. At any rate, at least the hair clipping was fixed

[Theodric]

The newer model does look a lot better. I'm curious to see how refined it'll look at launch.

[Lacan]

I just thought this was cute.

[Fland]

that's... interesting. What kind of customization we will have!?

Based on the two compared pictures, we could assume that ears, eyes, nose, and mouth are customizable, with possible customized fangs.
Tho I wonder if the mouth and fangs will be paired or it's a separate customize option.

If SE is so fond of fair hair why is Lara Croft a brunette?

/all the eyeroll forever

Have you not noticed I was citing examples from the game this forum is about?
