Character Creation Options!

[Reika]

well some people actually like playing ugly characters,gasp what a surprise.

Having played aion, and apb (and really a million other mmos) yeah i'd like to see better customization across the board. No i dont think this has to be exactly the same, but having seen plenty of people with the same hair color and style we should probably eventually get a barber shop and a few extra hairstyles/faces/accessories.

I heard people like playing ugly characters because they don't want to be jealous of them (Especially women). I would rather see more hotties~

honestly you have have a game with 100 hair styles 100 colors 100 ways to highlight and 100 high light options and still will see a clone. Full customization takes up space. DCUO has full creative control on your characters outfit. (for tghe most part and that game turned out pretty small. I'm for more options but you also gonna consider space and it adding up quick. And sliders are not always a good thing. It can be hard to make a "pretty" character Some ppl can do it some can't.

Champions Online and City Of Heros were much better examples, just saying.

Space is a consideration yes but keep this in mind, the space used in CO/COH by costume pieces was saved by not having armor/weapons to model.

In DCUO they took a hit to costume customization to add more gear for players ( a decision most people playing that genre didnt like)

in FFXIV gear is already seperate, we wouldnt be customizing the whole character from head to toe, just their physical features.

(Though i guess APB had/has it both ways so i dont know what to say)

100 hairstyles sounds so darn good to me

I'm not sure how you would implement a DoH Barber/hairstylist?

Well there's a few ways i would imagine but i think to shoehorn it into our system you could do this

1) divide the hairstyles into tiers so 1-50 stylists could do more things as they level up (We're gonna need more hairstyles for this to work obviously)
2) make each tier require certain crafting components
3) before starting it opens the character creation window for both you and your client, the client tells you what they want and you do it for them.
4) crafting minigame
5) voila.
6) make it doable on yourself or certain npcs (for leves) so you can level it

>oh but everyone will change their own hairstyle
Just like everyone crafts their own stuff right?

I might have imagined this but I remember hearing a barber shop for XIV was considered at one point or was going to be added in. More hair styles would really be appreciated, I don't think we'll ever see sliders because SE likes control too much But more options for color and style, I don't see why that can't be added in later on.
