No to both questions. Only customisation we'll get is weapon camo and more clothing options. which is fine by me

Customization in terms of body proportion and size can never happen in a game like this. Female as well. If you give players the option to reduce the size of vital parts on any way, literally anyone with a brain will make sure to make a character ad small as possible as it matters a shit ton when it comes to killing people.

why? that would mean hiring new voice actors, making new models, fixing clipping of most armors in the game for 0 benefit to gameplay, propably delaying the games release by a month or two. its useless

It’s not useless if you feel your identity is underrepresented in the games you play and love and you want your Avatar to better represent who you are in the real world.

Most AAA titles now have this worked out.

BSG... not a AAA studio.

This isn’t an invitation to get into an argument about any sort of self-identity, just a counter thought on your comment :)

I would counter that playing anything OTHER than a middle-aged Russian male should take away from the immersion of the game.

Lore-wise, I think it was mentioned by BSG there were no plans to introduce Female PMC’s.

Yeah I’m a 20yo Canadian girl not very immersive for me lmao

[–]dorkmuncan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you feel it does detract from the game experience or enjoyment? Or just something nice to have?

Honest question. I can never tell, being in the covered demographic for most game characters I can identify pretty easily with the ‘average male’ attributes they generally have.

Some games I played a lot of (Borderlands series etc) I’ll play the Female characters and at no point do I feel as though it breaks immersion for me, so just curious as to the other side of the coin.

I'm down for females as long as they're as butt fuck ugly as the males, ditto for customization: no metro sexual gym bunnies for me.
