Especially in a world where it's easier than ever to create fake content that's passable as real, being able to see videos that are ratio'd definitely helps as a gate. The fact it makes advertisers unhappy should be irrelevant.
I’d really like to see more masculine face variations and hairstyles added for character creation.
This isn’t about removing any of the current options. More variety is always good. But across classes like Necromancer, Rogue, Sorcerer, and Spiritborn, a lot of the face options feel very soft, narrow, or androgynous. That works well for some characters, but it would be nice to also have more rugged, older, broader, scarred, weathered, or traditionally masculine-looking faces.
Same thing with hairstyles. A lot of the current options feel quite limited if you’re trying to make a male character who looks rougher, heavier, older, more brutish, or less polished. More short cuts, receding hairlines, shaved styles, longer warrior-style hair, fuller beards, and stronger facial structure options would go a long way.
Again, I’m not asking for anything to be removed. I just think the character creator would benefit from more options at both ends of the spectrum.
I mean this as a cosmetic/customisation request, not a complaint about any existing body type or face option. More options = better.
