Change Eye Color should be an option available in the Aesthetician

That's your answer right there. Have you seen the dead-eyed horror that elezen suffer if you use too light a shade? (Of course not, nobody plays elezen). It not something you'll notice in the awful lighting in the character creator and probably not until you've gone through a few well lit cutscenes. Then you can't stop seeing it.

Thankfully I get two free fantasias per alt, the one for finishing ARR proper and another for the HW(?) CE so I can make those corrections without having to pay for something that should have been in the base game to begin with. I did change a few other things on that alt while I was exorcising her death gaze. Same with a miqo alt were I wasn't happy with the tail style.

I really do hope Square relents and adds the option to change eye color. I went a bit overboard with the heterochromia and inflicted the Allagan Eye on a few others. Nothing I can't live with but annoying that it'll cost a fantasia to adjust.

I am a bit ashamed to admit, but I realized you could spin your character around in the environment in character creation with right-click just recently lol.
I had no idea before, it definitely made it a bit easier to check lighting changes.
