Whatever its other shortcomings, Final Fantasy XIV at least manages to approach the holy grail of RPG character customisation – the ability to change the breast size of the player character at creation.
The option is apparently actually hidden away under “face selection” in true Square Enix style, rather than being a straightforward option.







Otherwise character creation looks to be distinctly behind the curve, with meagre selection of meshes for each option – compare to Bioware or Obsidian RPGs with an obsessive amount of control over chin and nose shape.
Sadly for the huge proportion of men who prefer playing female characters in their MMORPGs, a full breast size slider seems an unlikely addition.
I'm more surprised they don't have a DFC option.
Well most RPG players prefer breasts with size C and over, but I hope there's a DFC option somewhere.
There is nothing more badass than a loli owning a 10 story tall beast.
DFC is alright.
actually there is something badder.
A loli pwning a 10 story beast in cat ears and panties :p
Next thing you know, there's a character with the name Chris Hansen created...
"Why don't you have a seat over there, you 10-storey-tall beast."
"I wasn't doing no nothing!! She started attacking me first!!"
"Sure, I've heard that many times before."
@master-evil: isn't that, like, Strike Witches? :D
Since most of the males look like females anyway, just choose a male character and you'll have your DFC.
Actually there is something more badass then both. Rance
@makkun: Strike Witches was the first anime to have loli girls with short skirts fighting things? WOW!
<_<
No, not like Strike Witches, no stupid guns attached to feet and arms.
GODDAMNIT!! I was working on a function like this for my own game ;_;
hopefully if I ever finish this shit it'll be way better than FFXIV (won't be difficult...)
Correction: Strike witches had girls with no skirts
Except for rare exceptions ofc
u should play maplestory, they r as flat as board

No, if you do this, you'll have a fucking TRAP.
If only you can do that in real life
This. ^^
The only reason I would consider playing. >.>;;
Funny, character creation is about the only thing AION did right, wonder how a newer game manages to "do worse" in said category.
A female's breasts are now officially part of her face.
Most men seem to consider a women's breasts as their face.

"nice eyes you got there"
*stares at a woman's boobs*
Ahem. My face is up here.
Reply: Well according to Square Enix your
face is down there too.
Heh.
they want it to be legal in australia
A checkbox is fine, too.
Downloadable Flat Chest?
Yeah, I wish they would be as flat as Miku in that new Vocaloid game...
Disgusting flat chest?
Hm....I guess that's fairly DFC. I can roll with that.
About time I say.
Haha, they think more people will play they shitty battle system game just by adding oppai customization.
Sadly they are right.
Not with me...
I won't even give this game my money, unless I can make Fuko just for kicks and laughs...
Or a completely flat loli wearing cat ears and panties that goes around killing large monsters as was suggested up there.
They're pretty correct about that...
I SAW WHAT THE GAME CREATORS DID THERE! xD
neat!
The character creation isn't behind the curve. You're comparing it to single player offline games.
Artefact just has a huge bias against this game. He seems to also be biased toward western RPGs.
Lol wut, what does singleplayer vs multiplayer have to do with customization? If anything it's the opposite, games like everquest 2 and age of conan had better options than this years ago.
Objection on Age of Conan's, the character creation was rather crappy there. I've never played EQ2 so I wouldn't know. Of course, compared to a game like City of Heroes the customization is rather lax, but compare other recent MMOs and this is average or above average. Perhaps more importantly for some, the FFXIV models actually look better than any other MMO I can think of at the moment, and normally the more customizable the characters, the lower the quality of the graphics.
I'm not including single player games because they're another genre. If you want to include cross-genre comparisons, games like Smackdown vs Raw make all of the games mentioned in this post look pathetic with its customization options.
It has everything to do with it. Generating and loading hundreds of different character models in a persistent world MMO is alot harder to do than setting 1 customizable character in an offline world where everything else is constant.
I can tell from this comment that someone hasn't played Aion or Champions Online...
I guess they're saying a woman's breasts is their face...
I really like the character design this time, especially the face. Miqo'te is just so cute!
I recall Silkroad Online having a similar option in its character creation screen though...
Oh well. Whatever adds variety to the characters.
Maybe they should have an option for penis size, too.
*spoilers* They do. *spoilers*
Also, the limited customization is a given there just starting beta, there will be more options later.
Most mmos that have decent graphics have this option really, from everquest 2 that is 6 years old to age of conan. Games like warhammer and wow that had meh graphics are release but really this is a standard feature in mmos.
I too would rather see a loli beating stuff up as that's my favorite archetype ever. :3 I wonder what the breast size choice will say about the player.
Is there an option to make my character's crotch size bigger?
Wow! YOUR ALL FUCKING FAGGOTS! MAYBE ALL OF YOU ARE FAT ASS NERDS WHO ALWAYS LIKES TO JERK OFF THEIR SISTERS PANTIES! DIE FUCKING NERDS DIE!! ALL OF YOU!!
And yet here you are...
1/10 man. It's like you're not even trying!
@pukista, you're a close minded person, aware of that?
lols? why would such a person create an account here?
Kinda retarded, yes, when he could have posted without making an account and sign it like this:
"--pukista"
But noooo... Retard went and made an account...
I think because Artefact has been deleting the anon posts like that, which they should. So they think they might be safe just by creating an account to post like a jackass.
Just ignore the troll.
You account holding people are failing dismally by not voting him down.
I'm voting this up. Kudos for an anon troll to finally make an account and attach a name to their ignorant statement. Of course, you'll be getting banned eventually lol
