Request: Update/ Revamp Character creator

[MikkoAkure]

I don't see limitations. I have no issues with the character creator. You keep doing you though.

This OP of this thread already pointed out where some of the limitations are. Did you not read the OP or do you just feel like you have the need to leave unnecessary comments on threads? It's fine that you think there's enough options for yourself. I'm fine with the options I've chosen for myself too. That doesn't mean everyone else feels the same and they want more ways to customize and this thread is here to discuss options that they want. "I have no issues" isn't constructive and adds nothing to the conversation.

All races only have 1 extra slider option, hyur and roegadyn get muscle sliders, elezen, viera, and lalafell get ear sliders, miqo'te, au ra, and hrothgar get tail sliders. This means that everyone who doesn't have big ears or tails can't customize their muscle tone.

Men only have 2 facial hair options, 1 mustache and 1 chin hair option. These also use the "facial features" slot, which everyone only gets about 5 of. That plus a host of other reasons leads to a lot of identical-looking players, especially among the more popular races like miqo'te, au ra, and viera. It's even worse for au ra and to a slightly lesser extent, viera, who only really have 1 popular face and there's not enough options to differentiate yourself from others. In the end, you can either look like everyone else, or not be as satisfied with your choice but be different.

The executive producer himself has admitted that the character creator is limited and has acknowledged its limitations as well as the desires that people wish for it. That doesn't mean I think that anything will be done about it though, based on the reasons I already stated. But saying you're fine with what little we have and that there are no limitations just feels blind and ignorant and even a little preachy. I don't know what you've been playing, but MMOs have had better character creation that this for a long time now.

Whatever the OP posted is their perceived limitations. I think its fine. That is all that matters. I am not one with the herd. I do this crazy thing. I think for myself.
