Absolutely no way at all to change character?

[Mayo]

So im enjoying this game so far, but I dont really enjoy playing as a black character. Is there any way to be white or am I screwed?

EDIT: Idk why all of you are this salty over my opinion but I wont be responding to this anymore, apologies if this upset you somehow.

He isn't really black, besides what is the problem with having a black character, you only really see his arms and there are no situations where you see your entire character. Unless you really like to look through scanner room's window with drones.

Well hes black enough. And I just simply prefer playing as a white character, whats the problem with that?

If that's your highest concern then I think you've got bigger problems than that.

That aside, no - no way to change it.

Yes, it is my highest concern. I enjoy everything else about this game, and thats my single problem I have with it. Is that so bad?

Just so you know, modding for Subnautica exists, and nobody over there has cared enough to change the skin color of the main character depite it being an extremely simple change. There are literally two scenarioes where you will see the skin color of your character - the first being if you're not wearing gloves, and the second being if you look at yourself when using Scanner Room Drones. The first of which will go away after 20 minutes of game time and the second of which will almost never happen.

The only problem you have with the game or not, the fact that you have that problem is kinda silly considering the circumstances.

It wouldn't make a difference if you were blue, green, purple or brown with yellow stripes it's your movement that is the all star attraction for the beasties. Some people have peculiar hang ups sometimes.

Well in that case I may look into modding it in the future, honestly this is something that shouldve been done long ago.

I get it doesnt make a huge difference, yea, but its a graphical issue for me.

[Telerion]

Graphical issue?
How can it be a "graphical issue" when you never see yourselfe?

You most likely mean it is a "Klan" issue, but you dont have the balls to say that.

ppl this days. all crazy.

getting the obvious bit out of the way first. mate this is racist.

when it comes to the game you barely even see his skin most of the time except for maybe his hands when they are not covered in a glove. you could easily just pretend he is purple, blue, white, etc. and no to call it a graphical issue is just stupid asf.

just pretend he is white or something and that idk he took a mud bath (while wearing that suit, lol)

edit: although if this game was to add third person (i doubt) being able to customize your character (facial features, skin tone, height, etc bla bla bla) would be cool.

OP is either racist or troll - either way, i don't think this belongs in these forums. This has been brought up numerous times already, and as far as i can tell it's in "reply" to the main character in the expansion being female.

As if people don't have anything better to do.

A bit? That is racism by the book. You could use this as an example to teach a 5 your old what racism means.

Thats a funny idea, and i have another one. Something he imagine easier, goes like this:

"You are Ryley Robinson, a white male supremacist janitor on board of the Aurora. One day, while you are sleeping at your job, you get captured by the "Black leage of Blackness". They tortured you with a 50h sun tan marathon. When they finaly released you, your skin was now of a brownish color.
Your friends are now rejecting you, because of obvious "graphical issues".
Alone, with no friends, supporters and a crappy job you come up with a devilish paln to get revenge. You will poop into a paper bag and set it on fire infront of there quaters. While testing your diabolical plan in your own living room, the Aurora was hit by an unknown laser and the paperbag full of poo lands directly in your face. While the Aurora is going down, there was no time to clean yourselfe, and you run with poop in your face to the next lifepod. Everybody who see`s you laughed so hard, they forgot to board the lifepods (thats why most of the crew died in the crash)."



Did you know that if you scan yourselfe with the scanner 1000 times inunder 5 minutes you get a secret PDA massage?

It says:

"Exessive scanning will cause braincancer, luckily for you no brain was found during scanning"
