I tried BG3 in Early Access driven by the hype machine that the character customization was this be-all end-all marvel, but when trying the character creation, I found it so limited and shallow that I simply couldn't continue past it. Crossed my fingers, thinking after reading the headlines "In BG3 you can customize your character's genitalia ", and the trumpeteering of deleting BG3 Early Access, bc final release was an entirely different animal, including needing a larger Storage Space, that -hopefully- character creation would be revamped. Unfortunately, it's as triate and limited as Early Access. The "genitalia " was merely for controversy and meme posting. Aside from the 3-8 facial presets, 2 to 4 "body types" (2 for females and 2 for males, or for the miserable halflings... -half- the options), there's absolutely a lack of diversity and freedom.

That's exactly you guys took away from the players in this so-called Dungeons and Dragons game: freedom to tailor our characters, to incarnate a faithful representation of ourselves or the characters some that actually played DnD pencilled backstories for and probably commissioned some artist to draw.

Even for gags and controversy, your characters creation falls short. The most memorable thing to come out of your vacous character creation is Sad Orc over here

PLEASE spend a few minutes go explore Boss Factory to expand the horizons of your "character customization" and let it fly in hopefully a soon to be released patch.


By the way, what's with the vampire elf you guys have pasted in every piece of advertisement? Is he your David Bowie homage?

Such a bland character design with an overly complicated "background".

Yeah, I'd have to agree it's pretty barebones. Even a char creator like Dragon's Dogma would be better. No sliders, but there are an array of noses, eyes, mouths, legs, arms, etc. to choose from.

The current creator feels like an upgraded creator from Divinity II: DKS.

Are the origin faces not in the creator? It’d be nice if we could have some more presets.

They aren't. Well, not without mods

If you're after NPC faces in general, including the origin characters, you should give "Character Customizer" a try. Getting mods to work nicely with the current version is still somewhat annoying, but for me it's worth it.

Navigating this forum is a little confusing for me. Is this the place where I beg Larian to give us a barber to customize our appearances after Character Creation D:

Its one of very few flaws with this game, how limited the character creation is using only presets and not customizable sliders.
