Greetings feedback is simple more faces for Asian ethnicity as human male, the only one available is not particularly attractive. Without the possibility to change shapes it makes an annoying issue, the ideal would be able to change nose shapes, eyes etc. But given we are working with templates, have more templates available.
But given we are so close to the release probably will have to go through mods.

We've heard that there are more faces that will be available at launch than in EA, so hopefully you get what you're asking for.

EA faces were decidedly lacking in diversity, so hopefully the additional faces won't be just more white Europeans.

There's also already a mod on Nexus that has a lot of new faces of different ethnicities. https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/205?tab=description
Hopefully it will be updated quickly after launch.

I hope so, I don't like having to resort to third party, I enjoy playing the game at least the first time as the dev intended but given the nature of RPGs its tough to no be able to express yourself in your character.

That mod is amazing, I can understand why some people don't like using mods (specially on 1st runs) but something like this wich only adds aesthetic diversity... You're only shooting yourself in the foot if you don't use it and go for an ''official'' look you're not really feeling for the next 100+ hours of gameplay.

I had a quick look through some of the faces when I had the opportunity to play the full game for a while in Ghent on 7 July and there seemed to be a few new ones added at least for some races, though not many (aging and other sliders will no doubt help increase our options).

I’m afraid I didn’t check human males, but iirc there was one additional human female head that I think would work well for a SE-Asian-looking character so perhaps that’s a hopeful sign?

And as others have said, mods can really help here if you can’t find a face you like for a character.
