More character creation for Storm Blood?

[Celef]

I would already be very happy if we could get every hairstyle on every race, no more restriction plus, they are already created so it might not be very hard to get rid of the restriction (as far as i can tell considering i don't know anything about making a game, it's just seems logic to me)

[Riardon]

I pray for this. We already created tons of threads for this request. We need more faces, eyes, noses, body details etc. For such a new MMORPG and as successful as FFXIV is, it has one of the poorest and limited character creation screens I've ever seen.

The thing with hair and eye colors is that every race has its own range of hair/eye color. For example, plainsfolks have "grassy" hair colors so they can better hide... Giving every race every hair color would be "cool" (as long as you think having flashy colors that will never really match the dyes of the dress/armor/whatever the character is wearing, cool, which is not my case, and definitely not everyone's case), but FFXIV has a realistic and great universe, with biological processes like evolution which we can see the effects everywhere. I'm definitely not into throwing that to the garbage so some people can have a totally irrelevant hair dye...

I see your point, I just don't share it at all.

On the same token, not EVERYONE adheres to the lore so... why not? Those that are lore freaks can, those that aren't have a wider color range.

The thing is, Yoshida and his team are definitely attached to their lore. And as they are, ultimately, the sole deciders... And I do think it's better that way. It's not being a lore freak to accept that FFXIV is not a MMO like Aion or TERA, but a MMO that's pleasant to see, a classy game that's designed by people who want to keep it that way... I don't even see why you're complaining, there's already much more variety in hair and eye colors than on faces... You can have a purple haired hyur or a light blue haired miqo'te, and they all seem natural. Letting everyone choose his flashy hair colors would just ruin FFXIV's aesthetics...

I'm still all out for more customization, I just want it to be done properly. More faces, more hair cuts, tatoos or whatever for some races... There's plenty of things to get that are more important than unnatural hair dyes...

[Ghastly]

If lore is a big reason for not adding some races, it should be a big reason to keep hair/skin styles and colors only for certain races.
I love lore, the moment a seawolf and a hellsguard roegadyn look the same they ruined any value of lore.

[Nights-Rune]

Yes please, I would LOVE some more paint and tattoo's more scars and things to make you really feel unique.

[Naunet]

I think I want greater freedom in customizing face types even more than I would want more colors for hair/eyes/skin. This game has a serious same-face problem.

That's what the Aesthetician is for. In fact, instead of just giving us hair colors and styles. Have us and by extension the Aesthetician go on quest line to learn about the different cultures and have us unlock their hairstyles. And at the end give us the whole hair dye color spectrum. And it'll do some much needed in-game world building.

All races already have access to all the hair colors available though.

But yeah, more quests with Jandelaine would be fun. He's such a crazy character and deserves more screentime.
