It’s been really really long and while itemization and class rework were definitely more important, I think it’s worth to consider adding more character customization options and some tweaks to existing features. What is especially needed:
More hairstyles!
Seperate hairstyle color, eyebrows color and beard color!
More faces! Especially on female character, because we all know that 90% of player female characters use only THAT one face (the only one that doesn’t look like meth addict) and it’s quite boring to see so many clones around, but it’s understandable choice.
More male beards and mustaches!
Well, that would be a start I think to improve character creator. Obviously more could be added but I think above features are the most lacking ones.
Everyone know there is, just like everyone knew most players would prefer non-RNG progression. Fatshark just needs to get out of their echo chamber and actually listen to players instead of just thinking their internal assumptions/voices are always right (and excel spreadsheets). Imagine if Darktide started with more refined itemization progression that we have now. I hope they are making some changes in their approach to their own games (maybe…finally?).
Fatshark could also maybe open up Steam Workshop only for pure character creation mods. I am sure modders would add tons of new faces, hairstyles etc. in very short time.
As many games in last years shown - good character creators can sell or flop games, so I hope FS will understand that gamers love customization. The more options, the better.
