Portraits...

[DDkiki]

Played only through tutorial so far, have problem with optimisation and crashed but i hope it will get fixes later...so dont really want to talk about it considering there were...a lot of this talks already. The game is pretty good yet lack polish. But I as Shadowrun fan am not worried about it that much.

My major complain so far tho are portraits, especially character creation. Its just ugly, faces, especially females looks ugly and like some goblins. Is this ME Andromeda? I think the problem in bad CG artstyle they choosed. Would prefer to just use art portaits like in Shadowrun, Tyranny, PoE and many other RPGs, even then characters in tutorial and dialogs had this nice arts for portraits and my CG portrait was kinda out of place.

Whats your opinion? Should HBS implement custom art portraits? I would gladly use one of my collection's art for my MC portrait but sadly im stack here with ugly(IMO) character creation that make dark souls faces feel good.

I agree with you... especially knowing HBS games. I would liked ten times more a character creation like shadowrun, where you can choose a portrait and that's it. this character creator is just a wasted developing effort in my opinion.

I actually quite like the important npc stylized portraits. The sad thing is I actually caught myself thinking I wouldn't mind getting some portraits like them, paradox has trained me too well.

Glad to see im not alone with it. I hope at least for custom portrait support later, just cant stand looking at this CG face.

Give it about another 150 bucks and you will start to see a real shine from all the polishing.

Well the developers appear to be feminist and if there is one thing that feminist hate the most its attractive women. Feminist fantasize about a future were all women are ugly so there will be true "equality". So it makes alot of sense that beautiful women are not allowed in this future.

Its kind of strange after Shadowrun... And story characters with their art portraits looks pretty nice...just the crappy CG faces are ugly.

I made a topic about this also

Shadowrun style portraits are highly recommended, the character creation in Battletech is quite bad in my opinion. For randomly generated NPCs I get it, it's a convenient tool for the devs, but at least allow us an option to choose a portrait for our Main Character.
