Changing City-State.

[kaynide]

Replacing a simple "choose from this list" setting with a section for free text is not an equal swap. There are more possibilities in a single typed letter than in your choice of guardian deity. And your search info already provides that space for free typing.

Data storage-wise, sure, assuming we are counting bytes of data. Useless, wasted data. I mean, what else could we get out of what.. 4 bit string for my god.. 9ish for my birthday?

It’s a lot more bits than are being used to reference which hairstyle my character is using. My meaning is, if we need to make a choice in character creation that sticks to our status menu, it should have some kind of meaning.
