More options for armor/clothing?

(or more skins for cosmetic purposes, if not?)
The customization-options for everything above the neck are great and varied,
I think it'd be great to be able to choose between a few different styles to give our adventurers even more personality/individuality.

>Different colors
>Big booba / small booba
>Muscular / skinny

Just a passing thought, what're your guys' opinions on more below-face customization options?

[Razhell]

It probably won't happen. The position of the sprite varies depending on the class, changing the position of the body. The only thing that maintains position is the head, so anything other than modifying the head or adding something new (like a pet, for example) is unlikely to happen. What You want occurs in the game Wildermyth, which is also very good.

Sprite-positioning and movement is definitely an interesting consideration.
I wonder if it'd be as simple as "painting over" currently rigged bodies to add new options, or if it'd be substantially more complex?

Honestly, I think something in this vein would be prime DLC potential.
Big cosmetic-packs are a good way to keep goodwill with the audience while also funding the game more.

Different body types would be quite a challenge to make work with the current system, so I don't see that happening. I once considered maybe making alternate skins for each class to allow for customization, but I quickly abandoned the idea. With 22 classes and, let's say, each of them getting 2-3 alternate skins, it would require a lot of sprites to be drawn. Maybe I'll add them in the future when I have more time.

Well either way, the fact that you allow custom portraits is already a godsend.
Thank you for all of your hard work.

Honestly I'd be happy with:

1. being able to let a unit wear an outfit previously unlocked. For example I purposely didn't make my best qualified knight into the Dragon Knight because I liked the knight outfit better on her. Would be nice if we could swap existing outfits.

2. Being able to just pick different colors for existing outfits. Similar to existing color changes we already have on hair, etc.

3. While we're on the topic of color changes, let skin color get the full color wheel option.

Those three things seem much simpler than new outfits and would allow for quite a bit of customization that would allow characters to look different from each other even when the same class.

A very fair compromise, for sure.
