And no one said it was game breaking - no strawmen, please/ Although I could see it being far more game-breaking than the crap people usually whine about. If I recall correctly, helmets are hidden by default, anyway. I haven't seen a game that didn't give you a premade character to play that was this limited since Morrowind and that's something worth pointing "LOL HELMETS" doesn't justify it. The fact is, this game is one where you're supposed to make a character of your own design and it is stunningly limited on options - it's not just "streamlined" so you can "just play", it's missing things that should be there. To bring up the former as justification for bad character creation in the latter is a red herring. A game centered around a particular character is completely different from one where you make your own character. It may be a feature typical of the genre, but it isn't a requirement and it isn't crucial. said: There have been good RPGs with far more limited customisation (if any). I can easily see someone not getting invested in their character because they had so little input into it. But I was looking forward to more like twice that, at least. So I could do at least two playthroughs of this game. After all, I was able to take two match-ups of face and hair and make them look good. This is not game-breaking for me, but it is the biggest flaw in the game so far. Now, if you can find some assurance that I failed to find about these limits only being in the demo, please rip me one if you have to but just assure me I can change something about the character's face. But a character creation system from over a decade ago is not okay. What would such fanboys say if they removed the Sky from the game - "Oh, I don't look up much anyway"? I get it, I'm really excited for this game, too. Sadly, all I see is people trying to justify the fact that we cannot adjust the faces of our characters, AT ALL. "Oh, I don't like designing characters anyway". I've scoured the internets for some assurance that the character creation we saw in the demo isn't the final version. This is barely an improvement from Morrowind, released over a decade ago. A system this dated makes the UI look downright futuristic. You can only select from a few faces and match them with hairstyles, change the colors around and stick a couple decals like tattoos on them. And I know the bugs have been ironed out "and some were actually created when they deleted data to make the demo smaller). I don't care about things like camera views and combat styles - all that comes down to preference. There's just one thing that's a big issue for me. I've played the demo 4 times now and I'm very excited for this game.
