The State of Male Character Creation

[BiffWellington]

My brothers and sisters will not stands for the racist term "potato".

But... your character's name is Hash Browns...

[Fland]

Not really? Like, we are adventurers. Hard to be a fighting monster if you arent in shape. I think people are looking for this to be the sims in terms of character creation. It's not, will not be that.

yup need those abs and bulging biceps to cast fireballs at dem monsters

I don't know if anyone has been following the translations, however, I seen this pop up.

Itaru-san requests for more character customization options like making their character older (wrinkles). Yoshida answers by saying that the technology at tha time wasn’t advanced enough to include a lot of options for customization. Second, the body customization (fat or slim) may cause the body polygon to go haywire if they allow such option and us players will not be pleased about it. However, as said in the keynote they ARE currently challenging in allowing more options in body optimization. Not much at first but they want to gradually solve the challenge

We'll soon get chubby miqo NPC, so hopefully not long before it'd be applicable to PC as well

Midlander - muscular male
Highlander - extra muscular male
Miqote - short muscular male
Elezen - lanky muscular male
Aura - lanky muscular male
Roe - ridiculously muscular male
Hrothgar - reskinned roe
Lalafell - potato

Wow so many diverse and unique options. Hrothgar really filled a niche that wasn't being satisfied before. There couldn't possibly be another race that would give them a chance to balance out the roster.

You know they just recycle the male midlander model for all races except the roes and the potatoes. They just adjust some proportions (Au Ra waist), pose it differently. BAM! new race.

Quite hyperbolic, OP. You can make a non-muscular male character.

But even if you couldn't, just make a female with the bust slider on 0 and identify yourself as male in game. After all, gender has no bearing on your character's physical sex.

Imagine trying to use Political correct argument to scream about how you hate how all the male characters are ripped but you say this.

I am not a potato I am a dwarf.

Its okay hon, I will drink some fantasia to visit my beloved Lal- [ahem Dwarven] friends -in- their houses if I have to!

What's political about wanting cute males?

Then why are you playing as a female Highlander?

lol a male xaela
lemme guess you're 5'4" irl

[Astril]

Stop comparing the other male races to cartoonishly muscular roes. The males in this game are just varying degrees of ripped. Even if you turn the muscle tone slider down the muscles are the same size just less defined. Lalas don't count they're a joke race.

How very dare you! We are a noble breed!
