[SUGGESTION] Character creation needs an overhaul/rework/more options

[Wanzzo]

I agree.

And more options for the tatoos and makeups. And also, the option to use 2 makeups at the same time, allowing us to combine them and have different colours to each as well, if we like.

To be honest, I stopped caring about this years ago. But given how good-looking the face of new npcs are, the old aspect of character customization does stands out.

IMO, I don't see the need for sliders. These are most of the time useless anyway. I would enjoy more faces (especially for the non-hyur races), eye shapes, mouths, etc. I feel like having more faces would improve things so much. Some races like elezen you can consider that you pretty much have two faces, and two versions of the same face with lousy make up.

Better eyelashes and eyebrows for the races that are not Viera. IMO the eyebrows/eyelashes of Viera are SO good.

Beards, moustaches, freckles, face paints that are more elaborated or being able to choose more than one face paint.

Less blocky hands... And of course, hats for vieras/hoths.

If this is not possible, if we could AT LEAST choose hair per glamour plate that would make wonders.

I agree with more options over sliders
- like new noses, eye shapes, etc- it would be better overall & add the possibility more unique features
(and adding beards, viera eyelashes to other races, etc)

Speaking of eyelashes, I hope the 7.0 revamp adds the option to change the color of your eyelashes.

It annoys me that this is the only scar option for the only female Hyur face I life. understandable if you can't see it, it's the tiiiiiny little eyebrow scar on her left eyebrow. I would love more scars, both for realism and because they look cool.

This isn't a customization issue, and of COURSE I want more customization. But you know what else I want?

Visible male nipples.

Not the unpigmented phantom nubs they have now lol. Like, literally any hint of coloration at all. I don't feel like I'm asking for the moon here. It barely works on 2D characters imo, but it looks especially uncanny on 3D characters. It just drives me nuts, it looks so weird as is.

In terms of customization, though, I think what I'd like more than anything else is more face options in line with the quality of the Viera's -- who look like they're from a completely different game in comparison to the older races, because their faces have the sort of depth and detail that we only see in NPCs with custom face models nowadays. There's always been some stylistic discrepancy if you compare, say, Miqo'te to the other earlier races as well, and later Au Ra, but the gap feels even wider now, and it definitely bugs me a little, from an art direction perspective.

I heard YoshiP dare to breathe a word about potential customization options past 7.0, but of course nothing nearly concrete yet. If it happens, it's not going to be until after the graphical update (which I suppose is rather obvious, but still)

I agree, though. In some ways, XIV has pretty nice customization as is. In other ways, it's extremely and absurdly limited.

Yoshi said that one of the reason was because how limited data flows between server and client made it difficult to add more customization (unless i am remembering wrong it was asked in one of the q&a at fanfest way back) but they have been upgrading the server, only the north america left and that is happening soon, so there's a possibility that it could happen in the future but i'm not that hopeful that it will
