Character Customization is disappointing.
Am I the only one disappointed with it? All of that boasting and all of the advertising so focused on it and it feels lackluster. Sure theres a lot of options for hair and tattos/scars. Skin and eye color. But Did we need 8 different genital options? So little body choices. So little actual customization for the body type and they put so much focus on genitals but you all females have the same breast which I find to be a hilarious misstep. Obviously I am just picking here. But seriously, the actual customization options are lackluster at best.

Its not BAD by any means. But generally. I expected so much more with how much they hyped it up. Conan exiles has a better over all customization and thats pathetic.

So you're saying the character creator isn't the breast one you've seen?

Can I get a circumcision or castration there? And intimate hairstyle? It's very important in role-playing games, and we thank Cyberpunk 2077 for this opportunity!

just wait for mods. I 100% promise you the mod developers are making this their #1 priority.

Fair point. I'd also say the lack of really different vocal options was a bit disappointing.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad the origin characters and some characters in the game itself got some A+ vocal talent in the budget, but would be nice for the custom characters to have more options for really different and/or distinct voices. Not being able to have an option for a gruff voice for a Half-Orc or Dragonborn is a bit odd.

Shouldn't need mods to make up for a developers failing after they put so much focus on it.

As a side note I am really just joking about the boob thing. Because they talked on and on about how IMPORTANT the customization is and how limitless they were making it. So they lied its very restrictive in that aspect.

But the whole thing is actually lacking and disappointing.

WHY ARE THEY ALL BRITISH. I wanted my Dragonborn who I based off my recent DND character to have a rusty gravely voice like I intended him but instead every options is posh the worse kind of British voice.

Yeah. I gave up on my male character idea because the males looked too macho, so I went with a slender female. Gonna be lots of woman on woman action.

I am okay with the Macho men. But 4 options for most races. Do you want average or amazon is basically all we get and thats very limiting.

I'm with ya, some more expansive vocal dialects would have been appreciated. But sometimes it is hard to find with the budget, recording studio location, the time frame needed for recording, etc.

Solasta only had 3 male voice choices, but at least one was deep and gruff.

No sliders in 2023 is a joke.

The genitalia diversity is just a cheap marketing ploy to appease Americans. No actual effort went into that.
