+1 to most of your post, but a few corrections on this specific part:
- Sliders for both the body and the face are perfectly possible with the game's current models. The good ol' black magic users have them and they don't have to adjust every single piece of gear for it, it simply works (unless we're talking about custom body shapes, which I am not in this case. I am talking about stretching the existing body with sliders). Faces are more delicate because there's tons of bones used for animations, but they can definitely be messed with as well.
-Most races actually share the same body! Hyur, Elezen, Viera, they're all the same body with different proportion sliders applied to them to make them distinct. So the devs are literally using them already, it's just a matter of if they'd be willing to make the proper systems and HUD for us to interact with it. Definitely an amazing thing they could add to our character creator!


You can find this stuff googling around, don't need to break any ToS to know this info.
