Female Avatar

[Leah]

@Devs what up. It was in the pipeline since I got this game in early access and I've been waiting my dudes.

So they abandoned the feature they said they were going to implement?

[NULLYUKI]

Well I would yes, that they stopped working on this game.. The only real thing to get more content is by modifying the game by yourself, or installing mods.

Is there a female character mod?

[NULLYUKI]

I haven't seen one yet, and I don't know if someone is going to make one.

What's wrong with you Leah? We have to threads about that to end this: Nobody needs a female character. Oh man. Weird here.

There's nothing wrong with me. I like to RP and get immersed in survival games, and we were promised a female avatar in the pipeline by the devs. This game doesn't have a deep enough story to justify the total lack of a female character.

That "whats wrong with you" was meaning why you open a thread when we have enough of this threads :)

You like to RP, in the Forest? Maybe alone? Lol.

The story is: a father lost his child, not a mother. U will find some hints in the game that your character is really male.

I'd be happier to be a stranger woman and adopt the human child. Obviously there isn't enough when there's no answer from the devs directly. There's nothing wrong with voicing a demand for a feature. If you think there''s something wrong with it, maybe question what's up with you.

[Kieldoozer]

with your logic people should be flooding the tomb raider forums with calls for larry croft as a main character, see what i did there? neither of these games are even rpgs lul

@Leah in mean, it's a FACT that the story is about a father rescuing his son. Stated in the game when you found the book with a picture of the father. You can't do anything about that.

Why will you try to play a mother adopted the son when this game in facts have a story about a father? That's totally weird, sorry.

So, deal with that.

Killdozer is totally right.

Father looking for son... a father who randomly spawns as a different race and doesn't look anything like his "son". In multiplayer -- a group of guys looking for a boy who they all thing they have fathered. It all makes sense and definitely not weird... no...

A female in multiplayer could have been an option.

Maybe this is a silly perspective but for an independent game studio of four people they likely simply want to release more titles and generate more revenue rather than revert back to adding more features to a game that was released in 2014.

I'm not saying that character gender diversity isn't something that's important. In terms of time to implement they already have female cannibals so the female character meshes are already built for the game, all they have to do is basically throw some clothes on them.

But given their small team size, how much time and money it takes to release a game of this quality, as well as the real threat of indie studio failure. It probably doesn't make a ton of business sense when they're looking at their feature backlog for their game that's currently in development to add more free avatars to a six year old game. I'll see if I can figure out how to make you a mod for it.

It makes sense because at the start the forest was a single player game. Multiplayer was a little "gift". So, the real lore is single player...
