Didn't even know this existed, looking up reviews it seems the movie was shit anyway. But that's besides the point, the real issue is that instead of a young hot brunette Inquisition gave us a manjawed 40 year old woman.
I'd say more like 30. It's the broad jawline, the eye area and the masculine mouth that are the problem. The eye area looks completely randomised, or like the result of some troubled facial geometry or bad animation. Eyebrows never start that close to the inner corners of the eyes, not even when you have really bushy brows. The eyes themselves don't look too far apart when the jaw is that wide, so fixing this thing would simply require that the eyebrows be made lighter on the inner corners. It would change her brooding expression which Bioware obviously was going for, but it would make her look more "real".
Christ Bioware are incompetent. Look at these for example:
They eye positions are noticeably asymmetrical, and the brows change shape drastically depending on her expression. This mod makes her mouth more pursed and therefore more feminine. Instant improvement.
This one has apparently cleaned up the eyebrows, but you can still tell that her left eye is further apart from the nose bridge, and may even be tilted differently based on many screenshots of the vanilla face. And the obnoxiously wide jaw is on special display there.
It's still infuriating that the returning male characters either stay the same or receive upgrades, like Cullen, while the females have all been downgraded between games.
Anders and Alistair basically retained the same facial geometry between Origins (+Awakening) and DA2, plus perhaps more detail afforded by the more polished engine. Cullen went from an average potato-faced bloke to a superhunk, although that may've been simply because he became romanceable.
As for the recurring female chars, let's not even go there. Bioware simply can't let them be because of their involvement in the social revolution.
Edit 1: Shit, Alistair actually appears in Inquishition as well, and it looks like he got a downgrade! At any rate he looks like Cullen's uglier brother. How lazy is that.
