Larian, we NEED a Transmog system! Seriously!

[Joghurt]

Hello!

I just wanted to tell Larian that I am really grateful for the addition of the magic mirror in the latest patch! And on top of that, there were a lot of complaints coming in about hirelings and how you can't change their appearance in the magic mirror but I just noticed that they fixed that in the latest hotfix! So it does seem like they are listening to the community which is fantastic!

Because of this, I wanted to put it out there that I feel like we really need a transmog system for BG3! It's honestly kind of strange that we don't have one already, considering that we have camp clothes that can be toggled on/off at any time, would it really have been that much effort to just add another one for cosmetic armor too? There have been tons of requests for this since even before launch!

There also seems to be great interest in the recent transmog mods that have come out:

https://www.pcgamesn.com/baldurs-gate-3/transmog-mod


I feel like the lack of this feature is what's keeping me from really getting into this game (which is silly, I know, but every player is different). Just google "bg3 wave mothers robe" to see some of the more ridiculous looks that you can end up with for your characters if you simply want to use a good wizard robe that you picked up. The result overshoots immersion-breaking so much that it goes all the way to the moon and back. Also, as a monk or barbarian, I feel like there really aren't any good-looking clothing options in the game at all so allowing us to use our starting gear as cosmetic clothing would be nice.

Playing Dnd is all about having your character and being immersed in it and the world so allowing us to customize the looks and clothing for that character more without sacrificing the thrill of finding new gear is really important! So it's clear that this should be something that you should focus on for the next patch, now that we have the magic mirror.


Apart from transmog, I would also love some more capes and clothing options, thanks! :D

I guess we've reached the point on the forums where it's all waste of time suggestion for nonsense we don't need.

Speak for yourself, dude. A transmog system would be amazing.

Being a part of the mod community for other games like fallout 4, Skyrim, Kenshi, project zomboid, Rimworld, and a list of other games I can safely say that requests like this are very common. There is a thriving community with thousands of mods for these games.

If Larian will implement a feature you'd have to send a request directly to them. The biggest factor with requests, if it makes sense for the developer to put something like this in the game, If they have the resources to devote to creating a feature and if it fits the theme of how they want the game to play. It is a reasonable request and since there is open modding for this on the nexus, its clear Larian is open to suggestions from the community. Even if it never gets implemented you might find such features from the modding community.

I know some of you would rather have developers focus on bug fixes and other things. Its very important that we understand we are a community of gamers with a billion requests. And the developers will make the game they want first. Just don't come on to the community page and kick everyone else's ideas and requests to the curb just because you don't like it or feel the game doesn't need it. The developers decide what the game needs, not you.

Basket equipment has an addon that moves it all to camp clothing without any benefits. There's several armor options in there. Can put that on , and toggle camp clothes to be shown everywhere.

The only place I've seen this break is on the level up screen, since that shows your actual equipment(including headgear) regardless.

Sure, the developers decide what the game needs but wouldn't you say that the consumers should be able to voice their wishes for a product that they enjoy and care about? I'm not "demanding" it from them, I'm "requesting" it. While a request might be a bit demanding as well, I do feel as if I'm entitled to request features as a paying customer of their product while they are free to either consider it or ignore it. And I haven't dismissed or invalidated anyone else's idea, I'm simply arguing for why I think this is a feature they should prioritize in upcoming patches.

Considering how much time I've spent in Heroforge to make the "perfect" mini for my Dnd characters, this simple feature would add a lot of value for people like me and I do feel like creating a cool look for your character is a big part of the Dnd experience.

Transmog Enhanced is a mod that is very clean and basically what you guys are looking for.

Yeah, I am definitely getting it. I'm a bit worried about using it in multiplayer, however.

Why? The ones I have used are purely visual.

Who elected you to speak for everyone?
Speak for yourself and don´t like you represent a majority when only a few people agreed.

I certainly don´t need such a feature.

Yes pleeeeeeeeeeeeease pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeea-

I want to play a druid and wear my druidy outfit but my druidy outfit has bad stats please Larian hook me up.

[Lekker]

Just add hat slot to Camp Attire. Everything else is futile.

You need transmog because of bad armor design and ugly helmets.

I must admit that I've yet to see a fantasy game where the design is so good people won't need transmog at all.

My endgame team looked like Beast Wars Transformers party. Ayy lmao.

And let us wear boots in our camp outfits. There are so many boots that seem expressly made to be used in camp outfits, but you can't do it. Big shame.

Please explain further how a game can be "ruined" by a transmog feature :P
