Do you think better character customization will be revealed at Fan Fest?

I just want more faces, some further correction for clipping, and slightly improved cloth physics for those outfits that are impossibly pooched around the waist or impossibly stiff in their dangling portions.

Separate belts would also be nice, in order to optionally correct the art team's fetish for butt-winged chest-pieces.

I like many of the HW chest pieces, though with the new expansion and different setting i think we may see a lot less such items. Visual belts were a thing in 1.0, but getting match up with the rest of your gear was a nightmare. Different times though, maybe now it can be done better.

I just want decent Anti-Aliasing if PS3 isn't going to be a thing holding the game back anymore.

I don't honestly remember anything my simple black sash wouldn't work with, or a simple weapon belt, and very little ever clashed with, say, my light mail tassets. To be honest, I blame the nightmare that is the gear overload from when shared stats (and therefore gear) was removed. I wish personal crafting were more involved in gear revision, and that stats might be variable depending on the equipping class, rather than needing an "of scouting" and "of striking" or "of maiming" and "of fending" for art-identical pieces. Twice the competing looters with twice the chance of loot dropping for each of them hurts nothing; it just halves the chance of something being discarded outright, and halves the inventory requirement for accessing glamour sets.

(...Here's also hoping though that we can eventually glamour a gear slot on a per-class/job basis, rather than the individual gear pieces themselves. And if crafter economy suffers from that, give them something more interesting to provide than just an intended inconvenience. Ideally, it'd just be something like a fly-out menu from the gear slot or a section atop the armory chest that lets you pick whether you want to use the equipped appearance, glamour 1, or glamour 2, etc. And/or just leave absorbed appearances infinitely, alike to a series of 1/1 achievements.)

For me it's mostly just the spiky low-poly bare shoulders and the obvious hair lines. But there's no doubt that AA and the tessellation (and to even get there, the texture resolutions) could use improvement.

New customisation options are sorely needed, Especially in the tattoo area. The only new face paint we've got was the halloween event Three years ago
// (at least i think it was three... might've been two events ago).

[LunarEmerald]

I doubt we'll get anything like that at the release of StormBlood. There's more important things for them to be working on. Maybe some time later on with a QoL patch.

depends on what you are expecting from "character customization". I do not see the "sliders for crotch and butt" thing happening anytime soon for example, or hybrid races. We will continue to see hairstyles etc and maybe more tattoos. Would be nice to see one or two more base face types as well, and if not that an extra one or two options to nose/mouth/etc. On the proportion side, main reason I don't think it will happen is because it was a time saving measure from what i managed to understand from it from the 1.0-2.0 transition so armor scaling was easier to handle. So if they decide to do it they will probably ask community how much they are willing to compromise like they did with the longer hairstyles. (for example have undressed model and maybe mostly the robes/bikini/more revealing armors be priority for change and leave heavy and mid armors untouched.)

personally i too would love new customization options like faces better face tattoo's and body tattoos are needed only people that got em are 1.0 survivors now not saying we should get those ones since thats the reward for enduring 1.0 but still some arm or body ones would be nice

[Alacran]

How about some body tattoo's unlocked like Job achievements?

(example)Vagrant Story Blood Sin Rood Inverse for Black Mages and Dark Knight.

We are Returning to Ivalice after all.

This whole thing about customisation for me is really weird. coming from other MMOs i felt like there was a ridiculously high level of character customisation in this game and was completely overwhelmed. Not against it but i really don't get why people say there's hardly any.
