The Offical Aesthetician Thread!

[Soge01]

Have you guys ever wanted to try out more facial customizations for your characters using the aesthetician feature in FFXIV? Well this thread was made so all of you can offer your suggestions and feedback on how to improve this part of the game, along with posting or making descriptions of what you'd like to see in it too! It doesn't have to be strictly facial features you want to see improved in this game to post here; if you want to post about adding body paint/tattoo, etc, etc. Then your also welcome to join here too! The more posts about improving the aesthetic features in FFXIV the better! So if your interested in making aethetician more fun for all old and new fans joining the game, including yourselves, come on in and make some posts and have fun!

The ability to be able to change your skin color using the Aesthetician, To many times have I paid 10$ for a fantasia and have a skin color I thought I loved look completely different due to the difference in lighting. Changing the color of your skin alone shouldn't have to cost you 10$. XD

I remember that thread! Someone suggested lore wise to have a tanning booth in the game that can change your skin tone! Even if the skin changing feature was just limited to only a few lighter or darker skin tones for your character to switch to, it would be seriously helpful in the sort of situations you just said! Sometimes, I think my Miqo'te girl is a bit too pale and would love to make an improvement on her skin. ^^;

Personally, I think it should allow for full customization outside of obvious few things like Race, Clan, Gender, Height and Voice...

More lip color options. Like maybe metallic colors?

I will try to leave them in order of what we need more "urgent" (at least to my perception)
- Change skin tone.
- More hair colors. (It's time for this, right?)
- More facial paint and colors.
- More tattoos (for face and body, different and for all races)
- Release the hairstyles of each race for all. (Or the most requested by the people)
- More eyebrows and beards.
- More facial features. (More scars, moles for all races and male too, or other marks for the face, etc)
- More eye and lip colors.

And other "exclusive" for each race.
- More tails for miqo'te and au ra.
- To be able to choose different ears for miqo'te.
- Separate the horns from the face and add new types for au ra.
- Eyebrows for the hyur highlander!
- More clasps for elezen.

These are the things that I have thought for the moment.

Do we really need options that will do nothing but spawn more hideous characters? Metallic lipstick. Seriously?

Generally I find folks who are unsatisfied with color options just have no idea how to use what's available to them. Adding more options won't make them less generic or ugly.

I had this happen to me ;_; I had thought I had chosen a bit of a tan skin color but a change in lighting I ended up very orange color instead, I look like a oompa loompa in snowy areas ._.

I personally wouldn't use metallic lipstick, but what you find hideous others may like.

I would love love LOVE to be able to change eye color. Skin tone would also be so nice as well, but eye color is my number one wish for the Aesthetician.
