My field? If you mean what I study most, it is High Middle Ages (1001 AD - 3000 AD), with a bit of knowledge in the Early and Late Middle Age (GOTHIC ARMOR AND SALLETS!!! )
As a fan of Medieval history (as I’m willing to bet the majority of backers are), I would like to jump in here - i’m not well versed by any stretch of the imagination, but I’m working on it . Most of my knowledge is regarding the Crusades (which I LOVE learning about), and most of that knowledge coming via this podcast (it’s great by the way), and I have yet to obtain some of the source material she references…
On Topic:
I feel like the one thing that bothers me about Henry’s face currently, is that the mouth looks a little puckered. I don’t know if that bothers anyone else, but that’s just about the only thing that bothers me.
Umm no, In that case, he’d be blond blue-eyed casual looking guy like most of us and not this gypsy type…
blond blue eyed isn’t normal. most central europeans are brown eyed brown haired
How is the protagonist ugly? He just looks average to me.
Brown Haired and Brown eyed has nothing to do with Gypsy…most of us in Europe are like that and we are not Gypsies. Google Gypsy Kings for Gypsy look.
Still upset with the looks? Dan confirmed that current Henry is a placeholder. in a month old podcast in Czech:
He said its always a pain to make a look of the main character and even he is not happy with Henrys current look. He also said that he has no idea how he SHOULD look yet though… so lets keep ideas coming in this topic

I should learn Czech …
Looks like Warhorse improved 3D scans…
A blog in Czech:
If anybody thinks he looks better than Henry (the placeholder), he should talk to WH/megapixel…
WH needs you!
Now they have a scanning “device” which makes really good 3d scans/textures
Speculation!!!:
It would be an impressive feature, if you would be able to change henrys head with your “own” scan…
->not always a change for the better!!!
Where are the artists???
Google should improve their translation funktion…also for youtube videos!
Why don’t they model him after Jaromir Jagr?
because he’s ugly and pushing 50
Whats a special arrow? do you mean a broadhead? and also do you mean you hunt when you say you fire on living objects?
Don’t like the character’s face? Don’t worry, be happy because the game is in first person! Oh, wait…you can still see their face in cutscenes, well, guess you have to cover your face then.
This actually makes you wonder, are there scarfs or something you can cover your face with? Because the only way to cover your face is to wear a helmet that covers your face, correct?
Well I even presume, that in most cutscenes main character will be visible with his helmet off, as it would be probably quite unpolite to have helmet while talking to major of town, king or whatever…
Makes perfect sense indeed.
Oh, I basically mean LARP Arrows and shooting on people.
Funny, this is how his hairstyle is right now! ahahha
Well, we can’t all be as pretty as you!
He isn’t that face is temporary I think, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50Fe6qzGtkU go to 1:44 time frame on the right I am guessing that is what henry will end up looking like.
