So anyone know anything about the casual outfits? Asking for a friend.

I believe they are suitable for a casual Friday.

EA/Origin Access Play First Trial Thread

If you're taking advantage of the first ten hours of the MEA single-player/storymode and want to talk details (aka 'spoilers'), please use this as the top level comment and put all spoilers within an [Spoiler (click to open)] tag.

A few grumpy thoughts on the CC.

[Spoiler (click to open)]So. Well. Unless I'm missing something, there doesn't seem to be as many options for face sculpting as there was in Dragon Age Inquisition or even the previous ME games. I didn't feel like I was able to change the face that started with the head all that much. And no eyebrows at all??? Luckily I didn't mind the default, but a few options would have been nice.

The hair looks really good though. Nice to see a few old classic styles back. :)

That sounds disappointing.

(Still downloading. I looked at Origin's predictions of when it would be done, and told it to go home because it's drunk.)

[Spoiler (click to open)]I mean, I like the way my Ryder turned out, but after I played around, realized it wasn't as big as I thought it was, my thought was: this feels like the devs were relying on mods to make up the difference.

I hate that mindset. it's not fair to console players.

That being said, however, I'm about 3 hours in and having a lot of fun. I'm going to try MP in a bit.

Putting up that spoiler thread reminded me lol, eff, I need to make tomorrow's SLF post, the 24 hour pre-hype post, and the first reactions release post. :D

If anyone has banners they want to share for that, please leave me a link to it.

MEA Multiplayer foo

I have a gamertag swapmeet post up for MEA multiplayer goodness, which includes information in a comment on a Discord server I just set up to make it easier for people to try to scare up LJ peeps to play MP with. :)

We'll be colonizing Andromeda for real by the time Bioware has a decent animation budget. I still have flashbacks to Joker going all noodlearms at his console in ME2...
