And they didnt "create" anything.
Well, to be fair taking an existing picture and photoshopping it into something new is "creating something". It's not creating something dynamically new or drastically different - but it's definitely creating something.

Yes, I would have preferred that, although time spent on it is irrelevant. They could have took the picture themselves and been done in a few mins instead of using some stock photo they found. Its just lazy half assed work is all, and my pappy always told me "if youre gonna do something, do it right or dont do it all."

Well, I'll actually address this seriously this time without some dumb joke or tongue-in-cheek post;


But why. Clearly that was the type of face they wanted to go with. The style, I mean. Lines and all that shit - the person/people in charge would have had an idea in mind before and wouldn't have just been 'winging it'. So what's the real difference if they create a face from scratch, or photoshop and edit a stock picture if it will look exactly the same in the end. One of them takes significantly less time.

I just see it as a moot point as to where or how they got the picture. How does it change anything if they took the picture themselves, or if someone says "Hey, I found a stock photo that would work perfectly. I mean, if we were to get a model, we'd get this girl or a girl very similar to her anyways, and probably have her in a similar pose anyhow, so this just saves all of us some time and (probably) money."

Edit: And I get that you're against it on laziness. I can get behind you on it being lazy, because it obviously is. I cant argue that. But I can't get behind you on that lazyness being a reason for any type of complaint or negative feeling on my end. The ends justify the means for me. I was curious to what a Quarian would look like, and I didn't care how they got to the conclusion.
