No worries mate, most people in here would prefer to just talk reasonably about the game.
Also people do have scroll wheels available, if someone does not feel like reading the long rant ut is entierly optional.
Anyway I'd be interested to learn if starting class has any effect on gear appearance. There are many "classes" in the same braod category of "magic user" or "melee scrapper" that have widely different looks.
I hope there is just a bunch of differently looking item sets so that any starting options can eventually attain any set look (varied by race ofc) rather than some looks being specifically tied to for example battlemages.
Since you can customize away from whatever the default suggestion is it would just lead to people picking weird classes for looks and then playing something entierly different.
Seems much better in that case to just allow people to play the character setup they thematically envision for their char and still be able to find one of the sets of gear they liked the look of at the start of the game.
