Female character?

[BM]

Were the planned female character and character customization ever implemented?

Hi, we have female character in plans. Hero customization already done.

Please do.

Why wasting money on something who's not really needed ? Devs should focus on other features.

The value of a feature (whether it is needed or not) is largely opinion. The lack of a female character is valued highly by a lot of people, so much so that they'd not play without it. Sounds pretty needed to me.

I understand some players don't care about playing with a male or female character, but as a female gamer it is important to me to be able to play with a female character. There are many games I didn't buy because you couldn't.

Who needs a female character? Have you seen a lot of women working in the mines? Yeah, thought so.

So, I shouldn't play only female character games because I can't play a male? That's your logic.

no, it isn't. there's plenty of reasons for women to not want to play a game without a female option, especially when that game has character creation but no gender option.

for me personally, i just don't enjoy playing as a man in a game like this. if it's a solo story-driven game like uncharted i don't mind, but when i can edit my character already, it matters to me. i just feel more comfortable playing a character i edited that's my own gender, i can enjoy the game more and immerse myself more and relate to my character.

it likely won't make sense to someone who hasn't experienced something like this, because as far as i've seen and i may be wrong, there's no indie title like this with only female character customisation with male "planned".

but the logic isn't that you should only play games with a character of your gender as the protagonist. it's that this game has choice of how you look, so choice of gender would have thought to be added at the same time as customisation.

it's upsetting that representing all of their community and potential buyers and players didn't matter as much to the developers. representation in gaming is important and it matters.

and you shouldn't get upset because you're represented and don't understand why it matters because you likely have never felt like you needed to be because you always are.

but in another thread you said options like skin colour are not planned for the near future. isn't skin colour easy to add? compared to a new female model it should be relatively painless. forgive me if i'm wrong.

You're right. The color of the skin add easier than a female character. We will discuss this option. Last thread I had in mind that we are not planning to do the various races (orcs, dwarves etc). Thanks.
