Character Creation Has A Race Problem

[Ghastly]

You love riding the high horse but I'm here to bring you down from that.
You know what most fantasy is based on? Real life. Just because The only way FF isn't based on real life is if everything looked like a Lupin and the like, but they do not.


I could make the same excuse for anything I disagree with like bigger butts and claim that it's fantasy and not reality so it shouldn't be suggested.
All of your sentences start with I this I that, notice the pattern?

race is an imaginary concept.

The problem is is that people are claiming the game isn't "diverse" enough when there is plenty of diversity of characters in the game. What you want is a specific type of diversity which has no real place here. This isn't about who it does or does not "affect" because this is a video game, it has absolutely no bearing over the real world and doesn't affect anyone unless you let it.

Have not read the thread, but the true issue with the character creator is the lack of body hair.

^Yes^. I want a chest and/or back hair option.

I want a small strip of fur going a little ways up my character's back.

Fight the good fight! Body hair for all no matter where!

Something I noticed when making this character earlier in the thread is that the eye color palette has a limited amount of brown shades. It may be just a Highlander Hyur problem but I could not find a proper dark brown and the color black looks more like dark grey. It's odd because dark brown eyes are not only common for African people and their descendants but also for people in Asia, where this game was made in.

I think the eye colour palette is the same for all races. In any case it's definitely a strange selection - it tends too heavily towards light colours that look rather unnatural, even halfway along the light-to-dark gradient on each row, while colours in the same column can be of quite different intensity.

I think it might be another effect of being a Japanese game, where the vast majority of real people have dark eyes, so perhaps don't have the same sense of which lighter colours look natural or not?
