.

##
since watching the news of patch downtrail and how the graphic will be change

i'm thinking we might will need new details options, to create better characters
like in example : eyes / eyelashes / eyebrows / limit faces / or fix problems like put 2 or 3 paints / muscles / tattoos on body

or option that allow to us to keep playing our old versions in the new patch at least,
which also can help weak devices to work well with game with the heavy updates

##
to me, i really like the current style of my characters
and i'm worry of how their new look would be in the new version,
cuz it took me while to make every character xP
but i also i don't mind the changes and i would like to have new options for renewal

##
- what about you guys ? and how do you think about your characters ?
- do you think your characters need to be change ? if so tell why , if no tell why
- do you think we will need new options ? if yes, tell which options do you wish it exists in game?
- what's thing you have noticed in NPC and wished if it was as option in creation for character ?
- do you think there are problems in creations for characters ? like in example : some characters have no eyebrows or need to make good muscles



here in this topic we discuss about creation characters just for fun and i hope you all enjoy :o

happy new year and merry christmas to you as well.

should the changes be large, I think they should include a free fantasia... just in case

overall though, I'm in a wait and see mode. hard to say if anything needs to change on my character until things are introduced.

- i wish sometimes if we can create/change the look of iris in our characters
- i wish if the female viera can have iris like lala, or if can make her tall like female aura she would be so cute
- or if we have glow colors in creation characters for eyes for hair for paint for everything ?
- what if Meteion have her race ? would you play her race ? would her race be look like her ?
- what if we can choose the age of our characters ? hmmm

agree , i'm wonder if we will get free fantasia at this point

and thank yooooooooooooooooooooooooooou

Think a lot of people made this statement already beforehand. The graphics changes so far look like they're going to be more than just upgrades in some spots, with Au Ra's Limbal Rings being the biggest example we've seen so far and really in general this game is just lacking so much when it comes to character customization. It needs more.

Unfortunately, I feel like SE might feel like they're too successful at the moment to offer such a courtesy.

time's changing ,
now so many games on ps4 and ps5 care about details in creation characters
and they are adding so many options for it , i think it's time to care bout this point now, at least with updates 7.0

if they ignore they would be slow/late to other games if not lose

I think, and believe, it will depend on the Japanese market and their reactions.

if they scream for Fantasias, we will get them. if they dont....

Honestly, I don't expect that much from SE, the ""Graphical"" update feels like what a Nvidia Filters actually do (vibrant colors etc).

Removing Au Ra limbal rings it's the biggest red flag

Lose what? PSO2 blew this game out of the water with its character creator 12 years ago, but that hasn't stopped XIV from outlasting it.
Just like FFXI, I doubt the character creator will change or update in any significant way for the duration of this game's service.

The led version was better, now looks like a generic anime face.

people's interests will not stay same for long time as i told you the time is changing
but we know our game is away from losing players, it just will be late/slow to other games in customization

like in example : the previous 10 years , the options of customization in games were often few , everything was simple
today the options in games are a lot to customization , only games of mobile they still use few options

our game still have better potential and it's deserve better more

i think it's hard to remove the limbal rings , limbal rings is very special thing in Au ra race
i can't imagine my Au Ra without limbal rings that's hurt
i like how it's flashy color , i'll miss flashy colors in rings if developers lowered its shine

Well... Yoshi P just said we might get it after the 7.0 Graphic's Update.

Q: Please add more options for char creation

A: That will be some time after the graphics update!

---

This is from the New Years AMA with Yoshi P.

My biggest ask for new options is taking the various tattoos from armors and adding them as customization options.

Hopefully the option to go back to the old textures, can't stand the new candle wax textures.

I suspect that can't work with how the characters are structured. Any bare skin you see on your character below their collar line is not their permanent model but is actually part of the gear piece.

I guess Im the only one who thing the current polygonal limbal ring looks flippin awful. It'll look more out of place if they keep that with the updated model resolution. If you need that ring highlighted just go for a brighter color setting.

They’ve offered them as part of an expansion pre-order bundle before iirc, so it’s definitely a possibility… especially if they’re going to be adding female hrothgar along with all the graphic updates in Dawntrail.

It would be nice if they took the facial features options from each face on a given race and added them to every other face. For example, I use Highlander Face 1 but there there's a nose scar option from Face 3 that I wouldn't mind trying out.

I'm mainly going to talk about what I'd want but
1. Improved height slider, I hope for more height variance, obviously only so much can be done but a bit more in that department would be nice.
2. More skin color options, just in general it would be a nice change.
3. Options between races or clans, Imagine having a Seeker with some moon features? vice versa, same goes for other races.
4. Some extra sliders for somethings would be appreciated
5. Improved face paint in general.
6. More default Hairstyles, honestly a lot of the "better" hairstyles you have to unlock now, in general I want more hairstyles that are longer or pony tailed but don't clip with gear or shields.
7. For the dudes out there more beard options. (not important to me but it's something i hear)

As a bonus I think they should give a free fanta to everyone in case the update makes their character not look as they want it to be. I think this is only fair honestly. I don't know if this would actually happen but it would be a nice thing to do.
