So I can change my junk, but not my face in a RPG ?

[ZEROspawn]

Why do they not allow us to make our own face like we want to, just because they think "Well the players make them look to similar anyway, but here is a slider for a rare skin condition and you junk and you can choose to be body type A,B,C or D or male and female with extra steps as you can't choos both options anyway"

"Surprisingly, there are no face sliders – a very common feature nowadays – and you're stuck with applying presets to your hero's features.
The game's lead character artist Alena Dubrovina explained why there is no such thing and talked about how the character creator can help players express their identity in unexpected ways.She then added that in her experience most fine-tuned characters that players spend hours making look very similar in the end. "So we wanted to avoid that. And if we would make sliders, we needed to make it into something that would be truly unique and wouldn’t look the same."

This seems to be a holier-than-thou thing from the devs. My face means a hell of a lot more to me in a game than how many inches are in my virtual pants. So what that I don't have a art degree, I still want a person that looks like how I want them to look. This already means no sell for me, as I have never found a preset charator in a RPG that looked like me.

Face variety does seem to be a bit lacking, not gonna lie. Face is obviously the most important part of a character, especially with close-ups happening all the time and with this much dialog. Even just basic options like eye shape, nose size, lip size, some cheek options and maybe a couple different eyebrows would have gone a long way.

Preset faces are going to get old really fast. Already it bothers me quite a bit in EA and I can never seem get a face I'm really happy with.

There are a lot of options on changing even your preset face. Like hair, facials such as beards, tattoos, eye and hair differences, colors, scars, makeup,.....gheeze seems like a lot changes can be made with the face.

Yes, make up. Something that not change actual face. Can i change the form and angle of my nose? It's size? The distance betwen eys? Forehead size? No, i can't.

All what you stated is simply make up, hair can be changed with wig and beard can be attached, such as beard of many santas every year, then tattoos can be painted over, there is lenses to change eye color, makeup is... make up. Even scars is something that not natural to the body, though not as makeup as things i stated above.

All of it can make an illusion of different face, as person with mustache and without them can look different, but it's in core will be same face. While sliders allow to change base structure of the face, making them unique for real.

OP if you spend all day playing with the penis slider and ignore the 40 or 50 different face options that says a lot about how obsessed with staring at penis you are.

Human females had around 10 face presets in EA if i recall. Do they add extra 30-40 presets in full game? Can you back up this claim with source link?

"Who are you?"

"We are Us! To the helm!"

"... I just.... I need like 10 minutes alone, thanks."

I'm certain there will be morph mods out there. It won't be sliders, but you will be able to shop around for what you will like (and BG3 modding will be mostly native without needing any concurrently-running, possibly-infected injectors).

Your "junk" is presets too, TC makes no sense.

Why would being able to change your junk have any relevance on limited face options? its not like they have 100 different penis configurations.

Sure they do, They come with all kindsa different angles, helmet shapes, cut or uncut, vein variations, number of nuts, length, girth, sack size.

The combinations are nearly endless! The only limit is your imagination!

I always found sliders annoying, it is probably also about how facial expressions were coded

My half-orc guardian lady is gonna have the biggest penger and most pendulous sack the game will allow

Check out the Divinity Original Sin 2 Steam Workshop and lookup “Majora”

You’ll find a dude that added a TON of new cosmetics to character creation, and I’m willing to bet he’ll do the same for BG3

By that standard every game has that, as you could just change the RGB on your screen, so the color is slightly different. It's 6 faces and some hair, not even all the stuff is possible to use on each race or sex.

Her point still stands. You can literally change your face from presets and customize it to your liking. Sliders is a very minor gripe, but saying that you flat out can't is just wrong. Making this post irrelevant.

Make the sack larger than the pen0r so you can do a whole pig in a blanket type dealie with it. Your guardian will thank you on those cold winter nights.
