I want to be honest here:

I ve seen a lot character creator tools from other MMORPGs. From very limited (WoW) until endless (Star Trek, Black Desert), I ve seen everything. But the character creator from FFXIV is one of the best. I tell you why:
  1. You have many options, but not too much.
  2. You cant mess up things. Even if you try hard, you still fit into the lore.
  3. You can make a beautiful character with less effort.

The problem with character creators like in Black Desert or Blade and Soul is, that you can do too much. I ve spent more than 3 hours on one character, by changing every single detail of hairstyle, face and body. At first I was satisfied, but a few hours later in the game, I realized, that I messed up my character. Legs to high or face to small, i dont know.

So, when it comes to improve the Character Customization:
  • Add a booty slider (yeah, its still a thing. Let us be 1.0-sexy xD)
  • Seperate horns, hairstyles and face types from Au Ra (still some space for improvements here)
  • Allow to use body-parts from other races (like Elezen-ears for Hyur. Hilda approves)
