Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta Less... "HULK" male?

Would be nice to have access to a smaller, less body-builder-ish male body that looks more suited to rogue/wizard type characters. I mean it reminds me of playing Resident Evil 5 where you've got Sheva the normal looking girl and then Chris the refrigerator who became human to punch boulders.

YES.

Why does every guy have to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger? There are obviously NPC male models that are not so buff.

I agree completely. Maybe there will be more models in the final release? If not maybe a quick mod could fix it?

AFAIK, there will be no other body models for the final release. The reason is: Larian would have to change all the armors, animations etc. They did not even remove the high heels for Scarlett because they would have to change the whole Scarlett's skeletton and body posture.

But let's hope that new body types will be patched in future updates or modded in.

Yes, totally agree. I was thinking of writing about that but forgot. Seriously, I'm sure Roderick's arms are thicker than my legs.

more model would have been nice. not a big issue though

Unless of course you are trying to play Raistlin & Caramon Majere.

The henchmen have different body builds. When Larian first reported that they were working on the henchmen interface they said it was possible the main characters could get other body type options before release, but that was unlikely. Seems less likely now, but it is at least possible after release.

I'm *really* getting psyched for the editor. I hope it's as good as it looks.

I can't wait for a more lithe male AND female model. I'm not personally a fan of amazons and bodybuilders.

So if the henchmen already have other body types that means all the armor and animations and everything are good with the henchmen?

Doesn't this just mean the only thing that needs to be done is add the option in character creation...?


I for one really hope this happens because my super ripped rogue looks silly with his toothpick sized dagger.

+1 for more body types.

Also wish they'd make black hair actually black and not brown before launch.

+1 for this as well. Admittedly I get lost in the game and don't notice after a while, but it jarring every time I make a new character. Would be nice to have portraits take a snapshot of your head and use that, too, rather than giving you many fewer options for faces that actually look like the one you made.

Ah yeah, I believe Dragon Age and EVE online did that.


Would be a nice change but I think its probably too late for them to do that now. I always have to try and match my portrait to my character. Sadly, a lot of the portraits seem to use things you cant actually do with your character, like being bald or some face paint we don't have or stubble or whatever.


But I do like the style of the portraits as opposed to a screenshot of your characters face.

Maybe just more portraits that you can actually match your character to would be nice.

I actually stopped customising my character altogether because of all of that... I just "customise" the portrait. I'm pretty zoomed-out anyway most of the game, and with helmets on it doesn't really matter.

So I just go by the portrait.

I've actually gotten to the point that I find a portrait I like, then make the character look like it. Sad.

Anyone able to mod this in?


I was going to try to maybe add the henchman body types under the underwear section, or maybe replace one of the underwear models with a henchman body type model.



Though apparently I am not savvy enough to mod games because not only did I get lost and confused but I also seem to have broke my game with the editor and had to reinstall.

woops.

Yes! More body types is something that is desperately needed. It would be nice to customize your body depending on your class. X.x

When we saw the male body, our first thought was the hulk too. The random NPCs walking around look so much better. Hopefully someone will at least mod this in.
