    New Character Creation V2.0 and you

    Just a quick edit because I'm not sure people read past the first line: This thread is not about confirming if we get to remake our character. This is about when it happens.

    So everyone I've been thinking. I'm fairly confident that we will get to remake our characters with the release of v2.0. I can't remember if its been confirmed exactly or not (I'm quite lazy and don't keep up with all the patch notes) so I won't say it will be. However, I was wondering if it is how this should be added into the game or if its even worth thinking/doing something about. I'm not sure if there have been any plans like this, but I just would like to know what would you like to see happen.

    Would you like it to just magically happen when you log in one day? How about talking to a certain npc and to be granted a single ticket (maybe the ticket should or shouldn't have an expiration) you can use to take you back to the creation screen. Perhaps there should be a quest involved? Maybe as the new world is being formed so will we? I'm not sure. There could be a nice cutscene or event that could happen. Maybe we can become a spirit (or zombie) for a certain time until we can obtain a new body!? Maybe you wish nothing at all to happen. Just trying to make a conversation. I apologize if this has been discussed already. ; ; I could find nothing of the such.

    tl;dr - When v2.0 happens how should we be able to create a new character?

    This is my wish, I hope SE does it this way and it's my opinion that it would be suited for 95% of the players based on recent discussions.

    You login and it says "hey stupid @55, make a new guy cause you think your old one looks lame,
    hokay?"

    Yes
    No

    /chuckle Due to server structure, your character(s) base does not meet the specific requirements. Please start over.

    That's where I stopped reading. It has been confirmed we will be able to change our race, gender, and appearance with the release of 2.0. Here's the link ^^

    Thank you for the input Antanias, but that is not what the subject is about. Could you read the rest and maybe edit your post with what the subject is about?

    Sounds reasonable, but what if you haven't decided yet and can't choose from that point on? Would you just not play until you're ready to decide? For some people who may be out of the loop all together do you think this could cause a panic like "Omg my character is deleted!?!? Do what now!?!?"

    To be honest, SE will have a plan and they will use that plan. I doubt they are in such a creative slump that they will search out the Lodestone forums (less the ENGLISH forums) for an inventive way to implement character creation.

    I hope they do it in a crude way that causes people to get upset... ah, let's be real here... no matter what SE does people will turn it into some rage thread on the forums.

    Off-topic: Can anyone name a feature that has been put in the game that hasn't been met with some sort of retaliation / resentment / rage / rework requested / remorse thread on the forums? Nothing comes to my mind.

    Yes, I understand. That is a very good response. Thank you. c:

    I've talked to some of my shell members about this as well as other people in game. Maybe I'm hoping something could be said in advance. I do know that like you said there is all that / r going on. Because of this I know people who avoid the forums all together. The whole site even. I've mostly been a lurker and just watch. I'm usually too afraid to post anything because I feel like I'd be slapped in the face. Some people don't even read updates because they don't want to ruin the surprises coming to the game. I was surprised with how people handled the goobue and did not know it would cause the mess it did. Either way I'm not sure I'd be prepared for the update if it were to just randomly happen so I'd like to be prepared somewhat as to what were happen when it did. Maybe something could be said that will catch their eye and make them want to do that.

    I know chances are probably slim, but I can still hope. Either way thank you for the discussion. c:

    Oh and as far as the other part to your post Rem, maybe adding the chocobo in finally. I was gonna suggest maybe the display main off, but then I thought about it and remember people complaining about that and how it doesn't fit lore or something. Haha. I'm sure there may have been someone who said "Oh I don't like the chocobo cause of how it was added in. You could just buy it instead of quest for it like in 11."
