You should not need to use a Fantasia for minor character customizations.

Eye color and skin color would be enough for me
au-ra can basically change their eye color as is anyway

Had it been up to me, i would have put everything on the Aesthetician so people could change whenever they want and just have the fantasia be the race/gender change potion.

So no, these are not minor changes and should stay out of the aesthetician.

I dont thonk you undertand that this is a game and you cant change your race irl.

IMO, Fantasia should only be required for Gender/Race changes. Everything else should be customizable, but that's just me.

Hair color. Hair style. Things like these change every day.
In any world I've ever seen, physically changing your body's dimensions requires "magic", or "plastic surgery" XD


While I agree there should be a non-fantasia way to do it, it shouldn't be of similar value to that of a hair color or hair style change.

Races need a greater range of height adjustment. I want human sized bunny people.

Imagine if lalafells could be as tall as roegadyn
wait, no don't do that

Eye color would make the most sense to add to the Aesthetician because choosing an eye color can feel limiting to what hair colors look decent on your character and would be easily explainable by contact lenses.

It would be harder to justify anything else without being forced to call the Aesthetician a plastic surgeon.

My advice to anyone thinking about taking the leap for a fantasia is to just make a junk character on a low-pop server and play around with them for a while. You'll be able to hear all of their voice clips and have complete control over lighting and motion. I think even the most basic subscription is allowed 8 characters and you can always delete them when you're done. Just make sure you pick a tank or a physical dps so you can actually hear their battle voices.

Sounds like very big Namazu. I actually like it.


P.S. Meanwhile I just used another fantasia for changing height and eyes color. Bye-bye money.

BUT the voice... the emotes that you have to "preview" the voice are downright wrong, either give us the combat voice preview, or give us the option to change the voice without dishing out 10$ because we couldn't try it beforehand.

This is probably the most heinous part about character creation and fantasia. You have small assortment of emotes that give nowhere near the range you need to decide what the character will eventually sound like at all intervals of play and then charge you $10 if you wanted that change.

SE is a corporation though, so they're absolutely thrilled at the fact that you have no clue what your character really sounds like and will have to spend and use a fantasia if you don't like.

I'd definitely at least like to see eye and skin color added to the aesthetician, spray tans and colored contacts for all! :D

Pretty much, while certain colors might look fine in the character creator yet overall bad while actually playing.

And sometimes you might want to change the skin color a bit so that it fits better with an outfit, not exactly something that should costs $10, maybe a million gil if they must.
