Well, if this is any indication, they would have to make one new face for every single possible combination.

I feel like the best workaround would be if they can add "faces" to the list of things changeable at the aesthetician even if they don't allow all the individual aspects like tweaking eye shape or ears.

Not many people are going to want to change the actual face of their character without editing anything else about them, but it would allow for switching between these paired faces with different attributes.

It probably would of been better to just added it as a Face Paint option.

funny thing is according to one of the interviews I watched, the games engine isn't even holding it back. 1.0 spaghetti is a myth.

so either adding more options to the character creator is very low priority (because of the new races) or its hard to get devs with good knowlege of ARR's engine (because its a SE custom built monstocity) to add new features

1.0 was time and time again confirmed to be a nightmare to work with, though. It's not even the same engine as what they used for ARR.

It doesn't need to be 1.0 spaghetti code to be a problem. 2.0 is its own separate bowl of hastily-assembled spaghetti and they just keep building on it as best they can.

It could be worse.

It could be Guild Wars 2.

Nobody knows whether it is spaghetti coding or not as long as we do not see the sourcecode of it. :)

I guess, they have huge problems with the data layer and not the game engine itself. It seems that the remove the belt slot to get space for other things. With a good data layer it is not a problem to add more space per player character. But if the inventory space is hardcoded somewhere and increasing this number breaks other things then it might be easier to drop something like the belt slots and reallocate the free space to other item slots.

Cheers

They haven't added any new face paint options since ARR either, apparently it was too hard or something, can't remember what it was from the excuse roulette.
