At least for the re-occurring characters such as companions and important quest NPCs. Something that I am also HOPING for, but certainly not very certain about is character portraits. There is no way that they are not aware of how important it is for the player to be able to make the character as they want it to look like when they have literally chosen to have the camera STARE at the PC's face so often. Quite honestly, I'd be shocked if Larian does not add more to the character customization in the final release - and I'd even bet on sliders coming up. You see the PC's face all the time in the cutscenes and response-scenes, the face is also applied directly as a portrait. Had it been a game that is being played like Pathfinder KM or WotR, then I wouldn't complain cause you use character portraits for the immersion and you rarely see their character's face anyways - BUUUT, in BG3 the PC's face is basically the PC's ENTIRE physical character design. So, why would I prefer these two options before more faces? Because Larian could easily add hundreds of faces, but there are still gonna be people that are not entirely satisfied. There are sliders to slightly adjust the face the way you want, but not enough to make something extremely out of place. It doesn't have to be as extreme as let's say Skyrim, but something more like GW2. This halves the work for Larian as they do not have to add more faces - but at the same time grants the players MUCH more facial customization, something that is *VEEEERY* important in a game where we'll be looking at our characters face as often as we do in BG3.ī) Traditional sliders. My suggestion to Larian would be either of these:Ī) Do the same as Warframe (Operator form) and GTA5 - allow the player to choose TWO faces and use a slider to allow the player to adjust the features to lean towards one or another of the faces.

My opinion on the matter is that when it comes to premade faces there there is *NEVER* going to be enough options. I think they could achieve something really quite compelling here with presets and modular cosmetic features, provided it was more extensive and had a way to present the stuff in an overview menu, rather than 1 by 1 cycling.

I mean that's some real artistry in there, I'd love to see a lot more of it, not just with the heads but the outfits too. Makes it sound like a technology rather than the work of individual artists, which it clearly is. Practically all my favs! Just do that, but again, and then again! heheĪlso, I seem to recall them promulgating the notion of facial scans (like in the context of sliders I guess maybe) which downplays the accomplishment I feel. I mean what just those artists managed to crank out is beyond impressive. I wish they could go fully next level with it. Also, like how much of your appreciation of this game in it's current state comes down to that artwork right there? I mean between that and the VA work, it constitutes like half of the entire experience, for me at least. It really is pretty glorious! I mean if they could take that and just start multiplying it, then we'd be on the path. Oh fine Mint Condition! you know I wouldn't let Halsin steal the whole show lolīut seriously, take a look through this page of BG3 heads. I'm sure we'll get around to 'Here comes your man' for the male heads eventually, it's just kinda tedious, so that'll have to do for the moment.

More zots into that! Don't just assume that unpaid mod creators will be able to pull it off at this same level.

It's something that the player engages with immediately and when it's working well extends the shelf-life of the game by orders or magnitude. Investing in this sort of Custom Character creation is the most surefire way to generate replay. I don't know what it cost them, but it was probably the best money they spent.

I'd just like to see the whole thing approached with a much more comprehensive sweep, and a real emphasis on the custom PC as opposed to NPC stars.Īnyway, here's one for the cheap seats in the back. There are probably a gang of other artists that actually contributed to this game and created the material that we are now evaluating and which players have responded to. If we want 120 human heads instead of just a dozen, then the move is to get this gal a much larger team.Īnd if we just can't get enough Halsin, then I don't know, maybe call this dude back in again. Before getting too much further into it, just wanted to say that if we want more heads, what we really need is to put more of those modelling artists on retainer and invest in it.
