Is there any way to create new characters without actually doing it...?

[Kirito]

Since Yoshida said there will be a converter from our 1.0 characters I was wondering if there is anyway to create a characters without the option being currently active? Meaning just creating the appearance of the character not actually starting a new game with it...

Unless they give us a 'character creator' to play with. No.

So I would essentially have to delete my active character option and create a new character then...? ^^"

Where exactly you want to do this tho? the obsolete 1.0 ? or once ARR starts?

On 1.0... Since only are 1.0 data saved could be converted for the ARR character creator that will be released...

Are you talking about having the option to re-customize existing characters? Or Create NEW characters before ARR comes out?

Create new character designs and save them so I can import them on the ARR character creator... I'm taking it that I'll have to delete my active character it seems...

[moriandrio]

This should be possible as soon we get the benchmark.

Ok so I have to delete my active character option then...

Nothigns stopping you from creating a new character that looks like your old one. Why would you have to delete your old character to do that? At the same time, why would you want to do this when you can just use your old character?

Unless you aren't a legacy memeber and only plan to get the one-character-per-server subscription, you dont have to delete anything to make a new character on any given server.
