Notable Information:
➣ “The old character creator could walk so this one could run”
➣ The new character creator takes inspiration from the old creator but is truly a new tool that allows the player to represent themselves in the universe
➣ The new creator is broken into 4 systems
ㅤ✦ DNA System: Blending and shape of the head, most similar to old system. Adds face sculpting which is the big new feature
ㅤ✦ Hair: A much wider array of hairs as well as the addition of facial hair. The ability to tune the colors of your hair expands on the previous color options characters had
ㅤ✦ Features: The ability to adjust skin tone and add makeup
ㅤ✦ Review: The ability to check your entire character
➣ The goal was to have a much more modern and sleep design style, think “Apple Vision Pro”
➣ The DNA center uses real 3D scans of people like before and the DNA pool continues to grow
➣ Rather then scrolling through you actually have a visual library which makes it easier to compare
➣ Save and load functionality is coming with this version of the character creator that allows you to save characters through wipes

    Editor looks great - I’ll finally be able to play my space sims properly, i.e. spend hours making my character before quitting for the night!

    Also huge props for the long awaited ability to save/load our presets.

      I don’t think it will take long before we see people posting character files for specific characters from movies/actors/celebrities etc.

      Will you play as Jason Mamoa today? John Wick? One of the Avengers? Etc.

        Oh yeah, that’s also a plus but I’m mostly glad I won’t have to recreate my char with every big patch. It kind of takes away from it really being yours when you know it won’t survive long term.

            I wish I could do that. Even though I know my changes won’t last I always have to customize at least a little bit, no playing otherwise.
