In case of Davrin, I do not like his “armor”. Really fighting in a coat with some armor on the shoulders only…? I do not get the current style of these “armors”. I know we can probably change it, but this being a default amor of a grey warden warrior that fight with sword and shield is kind of immersion breaking for me…but what can you do.

I will say that Dragon Age’s outfit designs have never been one of its strengths. I would happily volunteer as a BioWare fashion consultant.

I'll admit Its hard to argue about Bioware's fashion sense while Nev has Record sleeve stuck on her head.

I think Origins is a great game, but let's not overlook the leather armor bikini for women, or even for men. The plated suits of armor were good, as were the robes, but light armor were atrocious. Let's also not consider the fact there were like 2 armor models per armor category.

Dragon armor and leather armor were pretty much same.

Textures were reused.

Morrigan's clothes, etc...

Witcher 1 had same engine and could do good, realistic armor.

Reality is Dragon Age always had crap design, but nobody buys Bioware games for design, graphics, or gameplay. We buy it for the stories, and they're kinda dropping the ball on that too in recent years.

For me he looks like he transmigrated from GTA 5. He looks aggressive and frightening.
Yes he can be sweetest guy ever but I don't really want to buy game do check it myself.

[ArcaneSyntax]

I kinda like Davrin's look. His outfit is whatever, but his hair is nice and he has pleasing features.

I'm also not really weirded out by modern haircuts in a series with time travel and magic literally everywhere.

[wendigo211]

IDK, I couldn't get a good look at his hair, but it doesn't look too different from a Viking Warhawk. That's a pretty old hairstyle. However, I don't really like the look of any of the companions other than Harding and Lucanis.

Its hair, Christ people will look at everything to get ticked off about, if we used only cuts from a real life medieval time period wed see alot of them just go poof out the door, and id much rather have nicer options then what wed get if removed anything semi modern.

fun fact the straight razor which can do a fade pretty well was made in 1680, so its not modern and given thedas isn't exactly a real life medieval world i can see them easily having a old school razor.

also its FANTASY, are we seriously trying to look for realism in something with freaking dragons, elves, and of course magic, seriously haircuts are the lowest thing to be bothered by.

also modern cuts arent new to dragon age, hell origins had a ton we have Alistair, leliana, ohgren and lohgain to name a couple, and even in middle ages their are illustrations of people using basic knives to shave so a fade which can be done with an old school razor is easily possible, but yeah curious on your take with those charcters or is davrin unique compared to them.

Loghain... modern? You're a parrot who does nothing but repeat what others have said lmao. The argument was dumb af to begin with. Nothing about the OG cast screams 21st century hairstyles. Davrin on the other hand is basically Ronaldo in fantasy clothes.

says the pot to the kettle, would you like me to go grab the the comments the users provided to disprove your points, they are still there over on reddit you know where you ran with your tail between your legs when you rightfully got called out.

edit: also Alistair has one of the most basic haircuts a guy would rock at-least with some gel, and it definitely wasn't one from medieval periods so seems the only one with dumb arguments is you chuckles so thx for the amusement.

I ran from nothing. A post was made in hopes of discussing why 1 companion looks different from the rest. There were some good arguments, yes, but the majority of the replies were "you're criticizing a person of color! RACIST!!!!1!!!!". I found that to be dross so I deleted it.

and yet here you are, and if you weren't running why wipe it, and hey your the one who ignored every single modern hairstyle to target the one black dude with one (ignoring the list others gave you), and making the comment "looks like a football hooligan" as an add on, put those together and its a pretty fair reason to say you looked like a racist.

so tell me then since we are here now what makes davrins hair any different to say Alistair's whose cut is a very modern and very common look, both of which without the use of a straight razor (to modern for you) wouldn't be able to create such a clean look for him.

[Blaizeplays]

Ah, the straight razor. I pay people to use that on my hair in the modern day because I prefer the look to the sharp edges of scissors or modern clippers. I'll also go ahead and play by pointing out that in ATLA Aang shaves his head with a sharpened rock at one point. People want razors they can get razors dude.

fun fact the earliest human shaving equipment was bits of flint (to shave) and clams used to pluck hair (style), so yeah your spot on.

And this is exactly why I originally left this post for people who knew more about the hystory of hair than me. As many random facts as I have stored away this was not among them. Thank you for making my day complete with a new fact.

Alistair literally has an early 2000s dude haircut lmao.

[Six of Saturn]

Knightly hair styles of the high medieval period are described as such.
The Knightly Hairstyle
The knightly hairstyle was the epitome of masculinity and power, reflecting the ideals of chivalry. It was characterized by closely cropped hair on the sides of the head, with longer hair on the top that could be styled in various ways. This hairstyle required frequent trimming to maintain its shape and was often adorned with a small cap.

This was also the the same for many in the Roman legion, and a precursor to why most modern military styles look the same. High and tight.
