[Suggestion] Paid Race Change Program.

[Eldwir]

I must say, it is very nice that new positive posts are spawning, because when I started this thread, a year or something more ago, very few were okay with the suggestion I made.

In fact there were more bashing posts than actual contributions, since apparently the biggest problem with it was the fact that the change would've been "game-breaking" according to the majority of the posts that have been against this suggestion.

I won't say how they should be doing it in detail, however looking at how the things are now, if we can switch to a different server through the SE Account Management System, I could very well say they allow us to do it from there as well, without having to implement a feature in game such as a barber NPC or alter the graphics and whatnot that would so "drastically" alter the game...(Playstation 2, sigh).

From your FFXI Options Panel, let us select the "Character Recustomization", allow us to "check boxes" according to which kind of race/gender/face we desire and then press "Confirm". Race swap isn't mandatory since as I said, boxes checking would allow you to skip the Race Change option.

Once more, there would be no real need to tweak the system and implement a visually entertaining 3D race/gender/face creation screen with the ONLY purpose of letting us re-customize our hero...since IF they won't update the models, that is pretty much how they are going to stay, and we pretty much know, consequently, how they look like in game.

Also considering that what we saw in the character creation 10 years ago wasn't AT ALL what they ended up looking like in the actual game EITHER WAY, so no big loss in having your character wiggle their arms in a 3D environment in a fluid way, if they will be the way they are right now the game, at the end of the eye candy presentation.

The payment is processed and next time you log in, just as when you change servers, your character will be in his/her new model of your choice.

Cannot think of anything better. (For now.)
