Request for More Character Customization Options

[DarkOmegaGod]

Due to the way the game is coded you can't just simply add a bunch of new options. Every customization slot added would cause exponentially more lag in player populated areas. We're basically at the reasonable limit already which is why you can't even use a fashion accessory along with a minion or mount. They all have to share the same slot to save space. Any new option added would have to be replacing something currently existing.

Body sliders are never happening. All gear has to be manually adjusted to body shapes. Adding an entirely new body type would be close to the same amount of effort as adding a new race. I'm fairly sure tattoos/body scars wouldn't work either because skin textures are baked into the gear and would overwrite it.

Frankly I think the customization in this game is already good enough. They just need to expand on what's already there. There's something to be said for how difficult it is to create a truly ugly character in this game. I've seen what people will choose to create when given infinite freedom and it isn't good.

I'd like to see options for Viera tails. People could still have no tail if they wanted.
Also, Miqo'te ears!
More tails and ears for everybody.. Oh, and Roegadyn tails and even furr options? Making a Galka could be cool.

i was just thinking about this subject in the shower,

it would be really cool if they added variations of preestablished hairstyles.

For example: Take the Azeyma hairstyle and change the bangs so they're aren't so anime and give it a nice fringe/bangs or something.

Theres a few base game hairs that have either a fringe or no fringe, more of that would be really neat.


Ideally, in a perfect world, id like it so hair didnt clip through everything but my guess is the game engine wouldn't be able to handle that.

I'm hoping that they can give Hrothgars the option to stand up straight.

[Pricia]

Agreed.

More face options, horns/hairstyles separated from faces, ability to dye eyebrows, BODY tattoos...

This is not really true. You can scale the bones of the model and make everything scale with it. You don't need to make completely new body shapes.

Yes please. And body sliders.
