When are we getting a custom Character?
Love the game, but I really want to create my own character. I want to put myself into the game world. I understand this is on the road map, Is there an ETA?
A developer of this app has marked a post as the answer to the topic above.

The main roadblock for Character Creator is the traits system. It's like adding a hundred of new passive skills with each having a unique way of being unlocked, which makes it very prone to various bugs and requires a lot of testing. Same goes for the visual customization, as it also requires lots of assets.

And while it surely will be a nice and important piece of character progression, its gameplay impact to time spent ratio is not that good to justify working on it instead of other more important things. Especially since the game and all possible builds can be perfectly played with preset characters covering most of your needs.

Once we won't have more pressing matter on our hands, we'll make the character creator our highest priority. We don't want to waste time on a haphazardly made character creator missing most of its primary functions, as it will be inevitably scrapped at some point.

Not sure, but they have other priorities set before making custom chars, so maybe next year or so? They're planning a main patch this year but no ETA, and afaik there isn't custom chars included in that one

Search the other threads there's a response from the dev in each one, I'm sure they're quite tired of saying the same thing over and over again

In one of few next updates, though You will wait, because they just moved the date of next one from 1Q or 2Q of 2023 to unspecified date at a later time due to the war.

Agreed, not being able to create my own custom character is what's keeping me from playing the game currently despite already purchasing it. Will continue waiting till it comes out.

I find it very troubling when people can't even find and use a simple search function

Considering you can't refund skills, try out a new weapon build while you wait, there's like 15, and each has an achievement for learning it all. I'm using greateaxes atm.
Whilst I don't think they are remotely as good as two handed swords, the wounds they inflict are devastating in a long battle. You slowly make them useless the longer the fight goes on.

There's a ton of great RPG that don't have character creator. It's really not step one. Tons function without it.

More like possibly next year.

Character Creation is in High Priority (for reasons). That means it's quite likely to come after the Venom in the Waters update, and with the current situation in Ukraine/Russia I don't see Rag to Riches coming any sooner than Q3 this year, putting Venom in the Waters on release for next year.

I'd just like to point out that all dates I mentioned here are MY personal speculations and shouldn't be taken as gospel.

Is on roadmap since 2021, but is HIGH on roadmap since last update. It got higher due to people asking for it excessively, othervise it would still take more time to get it, now it can be expected in next few updates :P

The safest bet for customized characters is when they have all the races in the game.
For example, we know elves exist in the game, but there are also orcs, dwarves and barbarians.
I imagine AFTER those are released as enemy factions, player customization won't be far off.
