Character Creation Options!

[Ceons]

I seen that done in AION where you can buy dyes from vendors or gather them or have them as special drops and dye your armor.
I saw an improved version of that in GW2, where you would unlock colors for your character and then be able to from the 'profile' page (or whatever page you see your armor etc) select each part of the armor (main part/base /secondary layer/third layer) and select the color which you have had to unlock prior to being able to use. (a whole lot of content there. quests, bosses, grinds to unlock colors)
Cosmetics in game really matter. I mean that's why SE spent so much time trying to make the game so beautiful and eye pleasing.

Can I please be able to modify my ass and boob size -.-?

Yes please

[JillianNekonia]

Can't say I've ever seen my exact same character running around, at best I might see someone with the same skin tone and of course the same hairstyle but meh maybe Hairstyle just isn't that important when you're fighting a tentacled beasty that spews out debilitating acid at you lol

As for sliders no thanks trying to make characters in games like Oblivion and Fallout3 were a huge pain in the rear because the characters where just so hard to get proportioned right when you had to worry about things like jaw lines, cheek depth and nose bridges.

And you can modify your "Bust" size in this game already I guess Butts shouldn't be that hard.

They hyped this up so much, that it was going to be great etc... but really this would have been great when ffxi came out in 2002... But now almost 10 years later it sucks.

Can I please have more than 8 hairstyles to choose from?

Can I please be able to modify my ass and boob size -.-?

Can I have a slider for the height, instead of choosing weather I want to be tall/tallest/shortest etc... ?

In fact can I have sliders for everything... From face to body and everyhing in between?


Can I choose colors for my underwear? Maybe even have a couple different styles?

I know people really want the battle and content problems fixed and I'm not saying I want this to be number one priority, but I just want to point out that this area... Is severely lacking. 1 out of 8 of the same race in FFXIV has the exact same haircut. Seriously, Eorzea needs a new barber/hairstylist. . . /cry

More hairstyles will indeed come.

Adjustable bust/hip? Please no, this is what makes MMOs look silly. You already can adjust them with certain face types though.

Height slider? Again this is what makes MMOs look silly, and exploitable if they have different hit boxes. (Tera proves why height types should just be left to a predefined selection.)

look , you can add options for more curves without getting into crazy land....the Miqote ladies are far less curvey than their Mithra counterparts. I think having a few body types for each race (slim, average, large) adds a great deal of variety to the otherwise "cloned" look of each race.

It does take some extra time to make sure weapons/armor clipping all fit properly. Even now some of the "smallest" size models end up having weapons that "float" off their hip and stuff.

There needs to be far more hairstyles, at least 50 more per gender.....and they need not all be race specific; there is no reason Hyur and Elezen girls could not sport the same doo, etc.

Anything to mix it up. As many have mentioned who play other mmo's the option as they are, are pretty poor in comparison to most modern character creation schemes.

Is it awful? No, but defiantly sub-par for a game of this caliber.

EDIT: anyone else irritated that we got A LOT of color choices for hair etc, but it was like 10 shades of the same 4 colors that differences are barley noticeable in game?

just askin'

More hairstyles,beards for male character's of course, more tattoos etc. There should be more options for creativity of your character down the road hopefully a barber/hairstlye shops be added.

Unfortunately, this is the fate of artists in every MMO. They release a small amount of options to begin, then the game requires constant care and attention to the "important" things such as battle and content, and our little hopes and dreams are crushed under them.

I would be astounded if this game ever sees any additional character creation options. I'm fairly certain it won't, and it's sad.

Okay, the people asking for J cups are kind of ridiculous and I can't take them seriously. e_e

I'm all for weight/bust/butt sliders as long as it remains proportionate and within the range of normal. D cup maximum...

Even if SE doesn't implement sliders (and I know they never will... ever see a fat or chubby FF character that wasn't meant to be disgusting in some way?), at the very VERY least I'd like some more hair options and facial details like war paint. More facial options would be nice, also... but I know that's asking too much with the PS3 limitations and all.

That's one of the main things that bother me: the fact that this game is restricted by the PS3.

If SE would've learned their lesson from XI and the PS2's limitations, we'd have so much more to play around with. In addition, the maps probably wouldn't be so bland and repeat...

I guess some people never learn from their mistakes. -sigh-

[Ceons]

That's what I have been trying to say. There is no reason to shoot down the idea for more options in character creation window because of the fear that the proportions might be too big. They can always make the minimum and maximum something very realistic. The breast size already exist, I don't understand why it is tied to the face.

And to the person saying some people will make hips the same of a small car because they have never seen a real woman.. lol - I just got to say, plenty of 'real' women with hips the size of a small car, and double J boobs... Not everyone looks like a proportionality perfect model, but anyway thats real life and this is a game. Everyone can look proportionality perfect with a little variation.

Anyway - (If not sliders) as was mentioned few body type choices would be great. Petite, small, normal, athletic, thin, curvy etc

Maybe the next new crafting job could be "Cosmetic Surgeon" as i don't want to restart my character and if they did implement new character options it would not be fair for people who have already established themselves in the game. It would have to be a place you go to and get a new body option or hairstyle...trouble is what happens if i have my lips done and it botches!
On a serious note though makeup lipstick and eyeshadow and eyeliner would have been nice with nail polish etc.
