Let Us Change Skin-Color at Aesthetician

[ElHeggunte]

So lets go with this Logic:

Be able to change Skin color.

Next people will request "Let us Change Eye Color. Havent you heard of contacts!", "Let us change eye shape and facial features! Plastic Surgery, duh!", "Let us change height, Magic can solve that problem. Geez!"

Well, about the only reasonable addition really would be eye color because as you mention, contacts are a thing (contacts the size of a dinner plate, but still...) and don't require trying to handwave a hairdresser doing more involved physical body modifications. "Complex" changes like skin color or anything else you couldn't imagine happening without cosmetic surgery is best left to Fantasias.

I would like to see Fantasias changed or have new "premium" versions added that let you tweak your character freely over the course of several hours or days. Sometimes the lighting options in the creator just aren't enough to help you lock down the perfect appearance and multiple attempts to get it just right without having to pay for each one would be amazing.

How exactly does it make sense for a hair stylist to change your skin colour...? Pray tell. XD
P.S. I doubt SE would do anything that would make them lose profit.

It's the same kind of sense that lets him cut your hair to make it longer.

Hair extensions and wigs.

How about instead they let us change to lighter or darker shades of our set skin color? It would be like tanning or getting pale.

please let us change skin/eye color without a new fantasia...

I'd love to be able to tweak skin colour in-game. The preview screens really don't give you a good idea how your character will look in the open-world.
If they threw in eye-colour I'd be very happy too, but skin colour is the thing that has caused me most issues, even to the point of deleting (newish) characters and starting them again. Fantasia isn't cheap, it feels like a waste needing one for what is basically a minor tweak.

Maybe there should be different tiers of what you can do in the aesthetician, like costs more etc. without having to resort to a fantasia. I can see changing tanned to lighter tones along the same line of tones.

They really just need a better viewer when you're making a character, but yes being able to do more with the Aesthetician would be nice. I mean Au Ra can change limbral ring colors which is part of their eye but not the rest of it.

I believe skin color should be added since Fantasia can always serve for more radical changes.

ive never needed to change my character because i spend way too much time making sure my character is perfect before i hit yes (viera is the one time i will absolutely need to use a fantasia because theres 7 months of events between now and shb and id rather fantasia an alt into viera than potentially have to buy way more in emotes or event gear)

but i do agree changing the rgb values of eyes and skin (lets be honest it is magic instadye game mechanic, you can come up with some lore of repurposing a compound that would allow spies to change their skin color when needed but has since fallen out of military use due to countermeasures rendering it obsolete and now its fallen into favor with vain uldahn high society) would be a good thing to add in to the aesthetician for those instances where you have an rp reason to change your look or your current shade just looks horrible against your glam and hair combo
