My number one biggest problem: JUMPING.
Why can't I jump!? It's a perfectly reasonable request. Maybe I want to get up on a table and start dancing, or jump and balance on a rail instead of just vaulting over it. Or maybe I just want to stand around and jump a few times! What's wrong with that?
With that thought, I would like to add that a more interactive environment would be great. Maybe instead of just chopping wood, I could cut down trees...or smash someone's head against a wall, or pick up stuff in the area.
Most of my other problems were the townspeople:
Where are all the teenagers? :/ Shouldn't there be punks hanging out in front of the pub or something?
Why is my spouse so unattractive? Whether I play as a guy or a girl, there's never anyone I actually
want to marry. Especially as a girl.
Also, fix all the children glitches. I'm tired of my catatonic and disappearing offspring.
Stop asking me for an engagement ring!
Can I please,
please close my door? There's nothing more irritating than having to jump off my balcony because the entire town is bottlenecking my front door.
Other improvements:
I wouldn't mind having some better clothing options (honestly, the patchy coat was one of the best clothing items), and jobs that actually improve my skills.
I'm not saying we should have a million options (realistically, there's probably not going to be a dragon pet), but I wouldn't mind being able to have a cat. Or change my dog's breed.
When I look evil, I want to look EVIL damnit! Not just decaying and smelly. (Although make it optional; maybe I'd like to be evil in disguise :O)
I think we should bring back the scythe too! It was very grim reaper-esque, and if you're a farmer then it would make sense. I wouldn't mind a staff either...Always wanted a staff...or a rapier, or something that looks cool AND powerful.
I've seen the few in-game screenshots they've released (although not any of the female character, I see, I hope they don't take her out!), and while I don't really hate the character's face, I would like to customize it just a little. Maybe...change eye colour? Skin tone? Build? Maybe I want to be NATURALLY fat and become skinny instead of the other way around.
Which brings to me to this: I want to lose weight by running around. I don't think anorexia or anything should come into the game, but if I eat a lot and gain weight, why doesn't exercise help?
