Art direction doesn't look like Mass Effect at all. It looks like Dragon Inquisition. That's a very noticeable and disappointing thing as ME1 and ME2 had very distinct and stellar art direction.

Not sure how I feel about that character design - the jacket thing doesn't really make sense, especially if it's supposed to be the combat armor
That's Scott Ryder, the default scanned face from an actor, not the character creator.
What is with that Asari running around in what is basically jeans, leather jacket and short cut shirt?

Appearance is always subjective but it's not like this will be the only footage until launch lol. Plenty more videos to come. People like to see what the default models look like.The point is that Bioware's marketing went for possibly the blandest video game character of all time to show their game. Whether it's from the character creator or a face scan of an actual actor, the dude just makes me fall asleep.
Beautiful, but I'm getting some Inquisiton vibes.
Not even an interesting dude. Just like the most plain-ass preset ever. Jeez.of all the possibilities your character creator affords this is what you come up with bioware?

Yep, and that's quite worrying
I mean congrats? Doesn't make the dude's appearance any less bland or generic.They showed the default male Ryder which is useful info for some, like me, who will be playing as a guy.
This a huge improvement compared to other bioware games, but not up to par when you consider other rpgs like Witcher 3. Witcher 3 stays ahead of the RPG industry at every turn... >_>

Also Bioware wtf happened with advertising the game with the female as default?? Why show off generic white male #539585793389627?!
What? Witcher 3 has below average animations even for an open world game.

Not sure it's meant to be combat armor. Looks more like Nathan Drake like adventurer outfit.Flynn tweeted this:

Didn't they say that there wont be a default? Afaik will the marketing be more like what Inquisition didThis a huge improvement compared to other bioware games, but not up to par when you consider other rpgs like Witcher 3. Witcher 3 stays ahead of the RPG industry at every turn... >_>

Considering how shit the original ME trilogy looked
Let's not forget this series had Jack running around in nothing but pants and 2 leather straps on her chest. This is tame compared to what Bioware previously designed.

This wasn't meant to be a gameplay demonstration. It's a visual showcase. I've seen quite a bit of the game and I'm not understanding the "DAI vibes" comments.

Not sure where they ever said that. The game will be marketed with both male and female Ryders.Also Bioware wtf happened with advertising the game with the female as default?? Why show off generic white male #539585793389627?!
Hope Sony releases more of those videos in 4K, even if the Youtube compression makes them look worse than Blu Rays on my 4K TV.
There's a good chance I might use a dude for my first run-through.They showed the default male Ryder which is useful info for some, like me, who will be playing as a guy.
Confirming her as the default wasn't enough for you?Not sure where they ever said that. The game will be marketed with both male and female Ryders.

They really could not have chosen a more boring segment to show off their game for the first time.
Man, pretty visuals aside, that was kinda boring. I don't want to judge the game based on a small sample piece, but I did get an Inquisition-vibe from it and that is not a good thing.
