It’s not exactly Character Creator: The Game in the full sense of what I wanted, but it’s not a bad start either. This isn’t maybe quite as mind-blowing as I thought it was years ago when this creator first debuted, but it’s pretty fun all the same if you’re a fan of creative character design like I am. I advise you to save your design, rather than the character, which will allow you further tweaks. I also wish that once you completed your creation, you were able to go back and edit it again, as you can’t. A few years ago, Korean MMO Black Desert Online made a splash in the video game world not because of particularly impressive gameplay footage, but because of its particularly impressive character creator. I wish that you were able to custom equip them with a wide range of armor and gear, rather than a handful of preset outfits the game shows you. And as this is a fantasy RPG, you can start doing all sorts of crazy stuff like giving your character glowing, star-shaped pupils. The scaling system that allows you to tweak various “zone” on the face, hair and body is a good way to morph pretty much all aspects of your character. Once you really dig into customization, you can start veering away from these presets, but it’s a fine line between “good looking” and “monster” at times. Most of my creations end up looking like Kristin Kreuk (though I'm not complaining). For the female Ranger class it’s hard to make your character not look like a gorgeous K-pop star.

For the Warrior class, for example, all the preset faces will look like a buff chiseled white dude that resembles a cross between an American Gladiator and Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. Black Desert Online character creator - posted in Entertainment & Media: Do you like avatar creators what is that you say not enough options and customization Are you ready to be blown away by how real, detailed, and amazing this new character creator is ( this is beginning to sound like a tv commercial isnt it ) First let me explain what Black Desert Online ( BDO ) actually is. What I did find interesting was the relative similarity among the custom faces, which I’m not really used to playing most western games.

Whatever, since this is just a creator, I suppose all that doesn’t really matter. This is unlike most games where you can have any gender/race be any class, and there’s probably lore behind this I don’t know about. In the creator, your characters gender and even general appearance is based on their class alone. I really doubt that will happen with me, but I’ll be damned if I’m not going to fill up all my creation slots all the same. But if you grab that part of her hair, you can move it out of the way.) The only thing I couldn't really figure out was the poses, but the more I looked at it the more it seemed like that was just a way for you to pose the character around like a mannequin as opposed to creating custom animations or stances.Presumably the point of this release is to get people hooked on the creator and then wanting to see their created characters in the game itself. (Like there's one hair style for females where if one section is long enough it is parted over her right eye. Makes it pretty simple for things like if you want to curve up a character's nose, or if you want the person's hair moved out of the way. If you haven't seen it before, you can use sliders or click on body parts and move them around. I went with a Sorcerer, because that seemed like one of the characters I would actually play as if I ever do actually play this game.įirst impressions are pretty great so far. I did take two screenshots earlier though. (Whoops!) I was a little surprised the program didn't ask if I wanted to save or confirmed whether or not I wanted to quit, but whatever. So as I was closing out a few web browsers, I accidentally closed the character creator.
