Children Character Models?

I think Minfilia’s model looks awesome. It would be amazing if I could make a young looking male.

My reason for this being because I'm a particularly petite male IRL. Despite being a fully-developed adult, I'm kind of small.

Would be awesome to see more variety!

Nope. Already straight up had Yoshida recently say that they're not ever letting people play as children, or having access to child/young models.

So I wouldn't even push, ask or even contemplate it as wishful thinking.

They kind of answered this at some event recently, there's no way because of the...erm...'derivative content' it would give fuel for. Honestly I can't disagree with them.

Ah, I might also add that despite being well into my adult years, I still resemble a 16-year-old. Feels like a curse!

That's my reason for this request.

Thank you.

Yoshi P vetoed that.

Personally I never want it. It makes me uncomfortable enough to watch Lalafell getting stabbed and beaten. I don't want to see actual human children going through it.

With the amount of nude mods out there and shout chat on some servers devolving into some rather sick off-topic banter about how hot Mini-Filia, Alphinaud, and Alisaie are I don't think it's wise. Innocent intentions though you might have you really can't trust the bad apples not to be degenerates and all it takes is /one/ news publication getting wind of child nudity mods for this game's reputation to get slandered to hell and back.

I get it. More variety is always good. It'll never happen. Why? Because the internet will get this game outlawed in countless countries. How? Because the internet is full of freaks. Now give up.

But you can already make a young looking male. Shortest height Miqo'te and Midlanders are pretty small, something around 4'9". Not only that but you have some pretty young looking faces for both that would make your character look as old as Minfilia for sure.

Dear god, you have opened a can of worms now...

Anyhow, short answer is "NOPE" -Yoshi P

"NIGHTMARE."

If SE was only trying to please eastern fans, it would be added i believe. But you just can’t do things like that for western players. Over here we find that immoral. But for games like BDO or Blade and Soul, it’s catered more towards easterners.

no pls!! no children npc, player char, anything, this its teen rating game, not everyone!!!
not cool see my char looks like child with all those cleavages tiers in game. no child wearing guns, weapons and such. I dont want see childs be cut with gunblade, pushed of cliff, worst fetish ever NOOO...not gonna hapen!!

So you want to play child characters because you are petite IRL, and yet you are playing a large bulky Hrothgar...

/doubt

Protect the children! All jokes more options would be nice but sadly the internet does not allow for such things.

On my server there was a pf from a lala who offered to ERP for Gil. This was over a few weeks. I found it really sad

This was already addressed by the developers.

If you want to play as a child, the closest thing you can get is by playing as Lalafell.

This is a solid nope.

Yoshi P said no because of the Western audience but likely also because of Sony and how much more effort it would be to add yet another race. He isn't opposed to adding new face options that don't necessarily change the shape of the face but said features will have to come at a much later time.

He's likely worried about the imminent shitstorm that would occur from the NA side of things. The minority (no pun intended) politically correct crowd have the loudest words and the last thing thing he wants is a controversy over what is pretty much nothing for most players. But it's the few who would ruin it for everyone. He doesn't want the community divided, and he just wants to make an enjoyable game with enjoyable people playing it. So far, it's work well. BDO's forums are pages and pages of people arguing not only why did they add a playable child race but also why in the NA client it's heavily censored. Imagine that but here? I don't think anyone of us wants to deal with that crap but BDO has a "special" community anyway.

I wouldn’t feel comfortable if players were able to play children. Seeing what some people have done with young characters in other games is entirely off-putting and creepy (like Marie Rose and Elin for example...)

As has already been said with not letting people play as child like characters, I want to further this by saying with some of the armour/costume pieces that exist in game, it really wouldn't go down well.

Ah Tera a pedo's playground

I’m genuinely curious though. What is so sexy about the body of a female or male child VS something like Viera booty? To me, the answer is obvious! :(

But... lalafels and female au ra.

Face it, Alphinaud's model and the other child models could easily made into like... late teens, early 20s. I wouldn't mind playing the child au ra model and it'd still look older than Lalas and potentially fem au ra.

The problem already exists.

If we can't have the model, can we at least have younger faces? Elezen and Highlanders desperately need them.

This is FBI, open up!

Sir, we know you're in there!

(Ram the door)

I propose SE permanently suspends the account of people who want to play as children in this game.
