I think there's tanning from being in the sun, but skin color will all be the same at first. We just pick boy or girl, and then the morphing from different decisions, do the rest. Maybe there's face makeup, I know there's some.:unsure:
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

I hope you can pick stuff like height and weight. I know you wont be able to but that would be cool. I realize all that stuff would change depending on what you do but just your characters general frame. Other than that, I'm cool. I know you can do all the hair stuff and with all the different clothes, nobody should really look the same.
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

Don't know if anyone cares but here's my thoughts on the whole matter:

Since PM is making a game that's suppose to appeal to the mass gamer and non gamer alike, character customization in the beginning will be near non-existent. The reason for this is because he's PLAYED games like Oblivion and Final Fantasy and such. What made games like that unapproachable when it came to the average gamer? The extreme amount of customization of nuances. I will give some examples---

In Oblivion, how many of us can honestly say we created our character within 30 minutes? I'll tell you right now my first character didn't get out into the world until well after an HOUR of noodling with it and running through that first stupid dungeon in the castle catacombs.

Now as far as final fantasy goes, I'm quite aware that there is no customization in terms of looks, but just the customization of characters in general can take hours. Lets take FFVII: Who thought it was a ****ing NIGHTMARE to reorganize your materia after Yuffie stole it. Jesus that was one of the most annoying points in the game because I had every character running on 100% and that little cripple just rearranged everything.

Anyway, those are just my thoughts. Anyone agree? Disagree?

I agree with the materia, except I liked doing all that. But that's just the type of gamer I am. To an average gamer, materia and the turn based fights would drive you crazy. As for oblivion, yeah it took me a while to make my first character. My second character, I didn't really care much what he looked like, I had a helmet on most of the time anyways. With Fable 2 though, I think they should allow minor stuff at the beginning like skin color, eyes, hair style (that you start with). Very minor stuff. Even that what I just listed doesn't really matter too much so if there is no customization at the beginning, I won't really care.
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

Hm, I haven't played either of those, but Mass Effect is kinda like that, It takes me around 20 minutes to customize the girl Paragon, cause the set one isn't pretty. I don't want to spend time customizing the Hero. He has a certain look and feel, that represents Fable. He's a direct connection to the original bloodline. It stands to reason he would resemble his family, from long ago. The Albion Tales.:unsure:
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

as far as i know, the customization of a character is not all that detailed, you have the choice of male or female (no choice in skin color, facial features, nothing).

As you journey through you make decisions and based on those you will start to morph into those actions.

For body and sculpting appearances, if you choose mainly a sword class then you get big and bulky, choose gun then you get tall and skinny, choose magic then you get glowing veins something like too human.

those are the customization base...

from what ive seen/read
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

I'm pertty sure you can dye your hair different colours because u have the goth achievement and that has to do with dying your hair black and also u can unlock pinbk hair dye from that Fable II puppet show game

Yes, you can, and also the clothes. A big feature to me.:)
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

o yea, i forgot to mention hairstyles, but that doesnt really dramatically change your appearance like certain games where you can choose different faces, skin tones, races etc... like in oblivion
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

There's several different ways we can morph in the new game. It would depend on will, skill, and the rest, besides which if you eat to much, you will gain weight, another way to change. There's so much involved.:unsure: Plus good or evil doing those things, could cause tremendous changes. Merely speculation, but maybe each hero looks different in the end?O.o
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

I like being able to just mess around with the customization.. like Hair. .Skin Colour.. Facial hair.. how big ya mouth is.. or nose.. haha Tall or Short.. that sort of stuff.. but ithink The Hair and colour will BE in it.. also Skin colour aswell

I always been a fan of games where you can customize your character. So far all I seen is pics of the same looking character. So is PM hiding the customizations. For example can you have a black hero/villain wit dreadlocks? I just want to know how deep and crazy do ya want customization to be. And what customization features do want to see in the game?

Oblivion customization on any kind of drug nameable under the sun.
 
Re: How Deep do the wish character customization is?

I think that they should include character customization similar to the Sims, where you can change your character however you want. It would be really nice if you could preview what your character would look like with tattoos or clothing as well.
