This is not a character creator worth being called as such, and the 'show you or character' threads reams and reams of same-face same-character pictures is an excellent visual tool for demonstrating this.

Ok, so it wasn't just me. I thought it was something weird to witness, but no one ever said a thing about it.
For what little it matters I don't find the character creator in this game egregiously bad as Niara seems to think it is. It's just... basic, without much to offer in terms of variety and appealing options (but this is more a matter of personal taste, I guess).
Nothing that they couldn't improve just adding "more of everything" for the record.
I 100% agree. It's no Skyrim messing with nose and jawline with sliders, but it is better than a LOT of games. And yes, more would make it so much better.
