Every race feels like human in aesthetics

[TheFibrewire]

Larian made Divinity, but that game had so much racial diversity and racial morphs, the skulls, body everything looked very different. Even Larina had Skeletons based on different races.

This game has much bigger and high production value, yet all races look like they are from base human model with make up. Elves look like good looking huamans with artificial pointed ear.

Tiefling look like devils from school drama or Halloween party. I was expecting Tieflings to have different skull and slanted forehead to accommodate their horns.

Dwarves are just short fat humans with beard. They lack square and stunted forms to their shape and does not have a thick brow ridge. Dwarves in this game is just Dwarves at home. In DOS2 the dwarves look majestic. I was expecting something like Dwarves from Warhammer.

The lack of racial morphs and and diversity to the bodies is just underwhelming, every race is just another american dude or girl.

Larian should have just stuck to more stylized art instead of facial capture, this is really disappointing. I get it you have done this to fit armor and weapons easily on all characters.

A game like pathfinder with smaller team than yours and less budget than yours, is able to do much better job in terms of representing races. Just because you have a buff elf doesn't excuse this.

Halfling are supposed to have elongated foot, but here they just have normal feet.

thanks hope you take the feedback and bring more body and facial diversity.

I would say you should google "5e dwarves" to see what the official art looks like. You can do that for each race.

Remember the game is licensed.

Tieflings are tricky, as they've changed a lot between various editions. Originally, or at least back in the old days, tieflings were actually supposed to be able to reasonably pass for human in many situations, often only having a single distinguishing factor. After all, they're mostly human anyway, just with a touch of fiend blood, so it makes sense that their aesthetic would overlap with humans a lot, even in 5e when skin tones and horns make them much more obvious.

Counter point: You also don't need to keep blowing off one game in another game's forum all the time.

You do realize you can like game A without bashing it by comparing it with B. You tell me who's living in denial and being jealous, kiddo. On top of that, D&D and Pathfinder are two different beasts.

Next time, think first before you speak your mind, narrow-minded fool. You're clearly the "fanboi" here, so, there's that too.

What does this even mean???

The OP is correct and it's a valid criticism.

They seem pretty accurate to D&D to me. The halfling's head is a little big for it's body though.

I agree that the teeflings look tacky. For one, their 'devilish' traits are described as being much more subtle, and they don't all have the tail, the horns, the eyes. Every teefling should be somewhat different from the others, instead the teeflings in BG3 all look the same - horned, tailed, glowing eyes, red skin. They're a cliche. They need more variety, and their 'devilish' traits need to be more subtle in most cases.
