Makeup & Accessories

As a player that really enjoys character customization, after a while the options we have get a bit boring. What I mean by that is in terms of face. though for the most part you are not looking at the face, it is important to me and I’m sure other players out there. I like the face options we have atm, those are all fine. What I would like though is makeup and accessories. Currently only a few faces have makeup on them. The issue is they are set. You can’t have another face with that makeup, you either pick that face or you don’t. I don’t want my characters to all have the same face, or same makeup. It would be cool to have accessories and makeup options for every face type, and just remove the makeup on the faces that do have makeup. Also adding more hair accessory color options. Rather than the limited few that there are. Possibly make it so whatever dyes we unlock can be used in the makeover kits to change the hair accessory color, or just give a general option for it.

Hair

This might be a long shot, but I will throw it out there anyways. Pinned-up hairstyles. Certain armor currently clips through certain hair styles. Hair that I really like will clip through armor that I really like. (ex. Leyline light armor torso; the collar on the female version clips through any hair that is long.) It would be nice to have certain hairstyles change depending on the armor you wear. It’s mainly about keeping the same style but modifying it to not clip with armor, then we can change the armor at no cost of a hairstyle kit. Also it allows us to have the hair we want with the armor we want. I like to theme my characters for the most part, but I can’t always have the hair I want with the armor I want.

Boots

Boot variety in the game is pretty bad atm. Idk what it is with the design on them, most of them are sized wrong. They are too big for the most part, and some don’t even match up with the size of your characters ankles, making it look like a child put on an adults shoes for fun. Some of the boots look pretty good, but a wide variety of them don’t. I don’t know why it is so hard to create proportional foot wear, but apparently it is. The outfits and armor skins have really great looks, and then there is the boots… ~facepalm~ So many armors look cool, but there are not enough boots that work with them or even look good to work with the armor. A redesign of the boots would be great. There are a few good ones, that don’t need to be touched though. The issue is that I see a lot of people wearing the same boots, with the same armor just different colors. I would like to see more variety in the foot wear department.

Color Schemes

This one is kinda random, but I would like more color edits for the interface, icons and animations for classes. I get that the classes have there own themes and all. But for me I like a specific class not because of its theme, and what it represents, but for the weapon skills and the way it plays. My guardian is a dark based character, with an evil look. I use twilight as my weapon of choice but there are still some effects that remain in the blue color. It would be cool to have effect changers, that change those colors to red, purple, or green, etc. As well as the icon colors, just a simple color change kit, that turns the color from blue to whatever you want to match the theme of your character. (ex. Mine would be red and purple. I would have purple icons, with red effects on my weapon animations and the fire from guardian abilities.) This might be a weird thing to add into the game, but I thing it would add more depth to the customization and themes people have for their characters.

Story

The story is great, after one or two play-throughs. I like that there are achievements for the races and different paths you can choose throughout the game. I can’t help but feel I have to complete the story on every character I make though, this becomes a mundane and tedious thing to do with every character. It get’s old fast, especially for those that have already finished all the achievements and have nothing to gain from completion of the story. It would be nice to have a feature that once you have unlocked all of the achievements if you could just skip through the story, and gain basic rewards upon reaching level 80. You wouldn’t get the rewards you unlock during it, so people that want the most out of their character can do so. But let’s be honest to a veteran player, those rewards are pretty useless anyways. It would make starting a new character feel way better.

Character viewer

I would love to see what gear another player has on. Or to just look at peoples creative outfits they have put together. This doesn’t have to be a stat viewer, just a simple wardrobe viewer. Sometimes I see a cool character, and want to look at their outfit, but some people make it hard, either by running and jumping around, or by running away from you completely and teleporting away. Or some areas make it hard to get a good view, angles and such, with other people standing over top them or near them blocking your view. It would be a great little feature just to examine the designs players come up with.

Banks

They can be super hard to keep organized. I would suggest taking a look at RuneScape’s banking system, it’s not perfect but it’s pretty good, and way easier to keep organized. Would be cool to have a system similar to that. As well as item locks, placing an item in a specific spot in your bank and having it locked to that spot, so whenever I take something out, I can quickly double click to store it right back in it’s place. Also faster scroll dragging when moving an item from the top of the bank to a slot on the bottom, currently the fastest way to do it, is to remove the item then scroll to the bottom and then drag the item from your inventory into the slot in the bank.

Guild Calendars

Yeah that would be nice, events and planning.

Also a Game Calendar would be cool too, showing us events in the game at the time, like Winters Day, etc, and when upcoming events will take place. Also the ability to set dates, and have a notification pop up in your mail reminding you of when something is happening. Would make general management much nicer.

So that is about all I can think of for the time being. If anyone read this far, please feel free to give me feedback on my ideas, and how they could be made better or what have you. Thank you!

I agree a character creation could have more options, but there is only one point in a topic wich i kind of disagree is that ‘’i am veteran and i should be bypass stuff’’. I have also play it games a long time and also get to a higher end content and never in my mind to request stuff like that way. I understand your point why you ask, but i would also say same that 95% of a game is worthless then and ask a skipping a head because its worthless to me like excample.
Yeah to a banks could have more faster access to improve it a certain way. Its pretty common how it works now anyway.

Thank you for your input. I see your point on the story. For me it just makes sense to be able to skip something if you so choose, there isn’t a whole lot that you get out of doing the main story after you have all the achieves and have done it enough times.

First i have upvote for you. I honestly was not expecting any anwser to my comment, and you did and also anwsered pretty well mannered because i did disagree with a certain points of your topic. Wich easily nowadays if wanna contructive talking its nearly impossible or a people offended if someone disagree with a point and they are right away ’’attacked’’ by forums polices or certain a groups.

Thats is true what you say wich would benefit in a later part of gaming even you salvage stuff and get some amount of money or finish a profession to get all recipies like to weaponsmithing or so. If missing something. Perhaps like you say option to bypass a certain way. They phrased in a differend level scale that you would skip ahead every new level range story line from a start to a end, but need to somewhat to finish it. Without a rewards ofcourse if you choose not to finish it ‘’correct way’’. Hopefully my english was good enough.

Your English is fine

Yeah I agree that is a subjective thing, not really necessary to do, it just might be something to put in in a few years. I can’t see myself maxing more than 5 characters out anyways, just something to throw out there that would make the game easier without breaking it.
