Isn't this just an extension of the call for better cosmetic gear? I, for one, would certainly welcome a variety of looks that I can choose for my character, but I'm not sure that the EA is the time for this to be a priority.
Once the game is more matured and the more important bugs and quirks ironed out, perhaps Larian will pursue cosmetic options and allow starting PCs to choose from an appropriate 'wardrobe' of starting gear. The popularity of cosmetic gear shopping in many MMOs suggests that there is a substantial CRPG player base who value such things. I, for one, have spent a fortune on cosmetic gear in BDO, a fortune that offers no in-game advantage at all. Looking good is important, even when you are fighting zombies.
