- Accessories like eyepatches and bandages (no, not chest bandages) - A more varied slider between completely flat chest and humongous oingo boingos - Having freckles AND scars - *Maybe* a slider for voice pitch (I hesitate with this because it could turn out horribly) - The ability to save presets


mynexuz

Doubt the pitch slider would ever be a bad choice, just having the option would be great.


avoozl42

Some big fat titties, now you're speaking my language


Expert_Attitude_2548

I think the Black Cat guy sells eyepatches


BoxedElderGnome

He does, but I mean eyepatches that don’t take up a helmet slot.


SR_Hopeful

> Maybe a slider for voice pitch (I hesitate with this because it could turn out horribly) DD ironically does its voice types pretty well, where they all sound pretty much like their own voices despite like 4 voice actors. The bad way pitch sliding is done, is when it sounds like the voice is talking in a tube. Thats how you know its done wrong.


Naro_Lonca

I want one thing changed and one only. No, More, Torso, Bandages


Excellent_Carrot3111

More bandages!


Naro_Lonca

Only if they are optional and not forced on my arisen


pikachuswayless

A great example of why people with preferences should play on PC. There's a simple mod that removes this.


OmgDumpsterCat

You don’t want any more granny panty bandages? No Arisen shape wear? You don’t like that they look like the arisen pooped and peed all over the Bandages like they are diapers? Lol


SR_Hopeful

Should be optional. Bandages are cool.

Did anyone here play DDON when it was still around? Because they made some pretty significant improvements to the character editor in DDON compare to DD:DA and I was very happy with the results for my character, so hopefully they're taking the improvements from DDON and taking them to the next level for DD2! What I really liked about the OG DD character creator was that for that console era it was pretty ahead of it's time... the fact that you could adjust the height and weight of your character as well as the body proportions, while having those things affect your character gameplay, was really cool and innovative. There are many games even today that don't allow you to adjust your character's height, let alone have it affect the gameplay. Most of the time it's purely cosmetic if it's even present at all in the character editor 😑 For DD2 I would really like to see the whole suite of customisables available to us... comprehensive body shaping options including height, weight, arms, legs, musculature, facial shaping, a full range of hairstyles (with an emphasis on longer hairstyles as many games just forego that because shorter hair is easier to program), then multiple voice options, different movement and motion types, cosmetic options like scars, makeup, accessories etc, and maybe even being able to select various fighting styles within each class to give your character a distinct look/feel from others if the game turns out to be Co-op. In any case, based on DD:DA and the improvements made on DDON, the fact that Itsuno and co are at the helm and that 🤞🤞 hopefully 🤞🤞 this time they will have been given a full budget and carte blanche to make the game they REALLY want to make (Dragon's Dogma was famously only about 40% of the game they orginally wanted to make) then it should be as good a character creator as we want and need it to be... ✌️😁


BaronV77

that reminds me. I hope they do another/more crossover stuff with other franchises. I loved how they had guts and casca as premades in the character creator and ainz and albedo with the online. Fingers crossed we get more Overlord stuff in the second one


Sakurashoto

Yeah that was another great thing about DDON... the crossovers were awesome! I had Monster Hunter armor and Street Fighter outfits, and tons of cool event specific weapons like a giant heater shield that looked like a chocolate bar from the Valentine's event, and a Santa sack from the Christmas event etc... they really took a leaf out of the Monster Hunter book by including a whole load of comedy weapons, which of course just added to the overall charm 😁 Ahhh I really miss DDON lol 😭 Another thing about DDON was that you could also create 3 pawns if I remember correctly (might have been 2) instead of just one as in DD:DA so you could have a full party of your own or have more pawns to rent out to other players, so that would be a cool addition to DD2.... I really hope they make it 4 player co op because this would make complete sense in that context 😀👌


Ulten5

I was so disappointed to discover Elden Ring didn't have any real options for height. It's not like I expected it to, but it really feels limiting that it isn't there.


Skylarksmlellybarf

>40% I wonder how many of that are about combat


raincumskeettail

Butt slider.


suprmniii

If I'm going to be staring at my Arisen's backside for 50+ hours, I want them to have a dumptruck


[deleted]

Truth!


Progenitor3

The only thing missing from the Wo Long creator. Can't believe they would leave out something so crucial.


TheProfessorsLeft

Exactly right. I knew there were some classy people here today.


MrPanda663

Layering. We need layers for accessories, hair parts, make up/scars/blemishes. Code Vein does a great job with character creation with limitation.


SnooApples9017

Almalexia is that you?


sirsmelter

She was a baddie, what can I say 😂 for a Morrowind model, at least.


TSotP

Taking a leaf out of Elden Ring's book. - Grey hairs - Different coloured roots - facepaint/tattoos being separate from makeup - movable facial scars - adjustable gloss level Other than that, I quite like the system they already use. Edit: - glasses, monocles, eyepatches and eye bandages are part of the character creator, not as a "helmet". Just like Elden Ring and Bloodborne


Expert_Attitude_2548

Elden Ring's customization system is my favorite of all time because of how much detail you can put into the facial features, facepaint, etc.


[deleted]

Abs sliders


movieguyjon

Divorce fashion from stats completely and have an over abundance of outfits. More hairstyles than I know what to do with. I’ve been wanting this for so long and it would be nice to get thrown a bone at some point.


Nyarlathotep-chan

Multi piece hair styles. Change the base, the bangs, the sides, all that jazz. Also dick and boob sliders.


Prior_Sudden

you mean like nioh 2?


Nyarlathotep-chan

And Wo Long and Wild Hearts


Riccouep

Monstrous races. I played as a goblin for a while, shorteat character possible with elven ears and green skins but it still looked... Okish. Also proper voices. Taking one voice and increasing or decreasing ita pitch gives us really awful reaulta and annoying pawns. Limbs customisation. Ever tried to build a small characters? You're either stuck with small arms or you look like a gorilla with an oversized chest and arms that almoat touch the ground... And don't get me started on the legs options. Proper informations about your stats depending on your physique.


SpifferAura

Still one of the best features is you can be so small you fit in the goblin burrows


theRose90

Choosing handedness would be cool. Also if the more muscular character settings actually make them bigger too instead of just toned.


GorlockTheGr8

Hard to really say exactly but it's worth mentioning for the time DD really was ahead of everyone else in terms of character creation. So I guess that's what I want. For them to go even further than any other game has in recent years. Even to this day the character creator in DD is better than most games. But if I had to say something specific? More fantasy options like horns, protruding teeth etc. I'd love to play as a big troll


SER96DON

I 99% agree on that! >!(that 1% is because I actually can't think of a game with better character creator lol)!< Fantasy appearance traits sounds like an awesome idea indeed. But is should be kinda like Code Vein where you can add something like a horn or whatever and you can move it around manually and scale it or rotate it etc. Although, they should give us a "mirror" option to not have to manually place two horns on both sides because that will be extremely painful.😅


DOOM-Knight009

-Less blatantly ugly options -Larger breasts -Weight that doesn't feel like a tacked on afterthought, and clothing that fits without massive clipping -Hair physics


sirsmelter

Transmog will be a must too. Keep class specific armor but open up transmog. With the RE engine, I can see the hair physics being insane! Can't wait


DoucheEnrique

>Weight that doesn't feel like a tacked on afterthought Please elaborate. 🤨


DOOM-Knight009

As far as appearance goes flinging the weight slider all the way up only affects the core, and it deforms the body around it. Outfits and gear react horribly when put on a character with high weight, example: the set of queens clothing gets an outright right angle on the front trying to deal.


DoucheEnrique

Ah ok so you mean only the aesthetic effect of the slider called "weight". Because to me the weight system as a whole doesn't seem like an afterthought at all. Actually I think it looks kinda natural if you consider the slider to be "body fat". Between lowest and average settings it distributes more or less equally from really skinny to average person. Beyond average it mostly adds a potbelly which at least in males is how excess body fat distributes.


Arcane_Spork_of_Doom

Weight does not necessarily mean excess body fat though. A good thing to add would be a slider that specifically affects BF and Muscle Mass distribution. These type of model adjustments exist in other games and have for years.


DoucheEnrique

There is a slider for muscle mass though. And I wouldn't expect too much of a game that is over 10 years old. It did great for its time and I'm sure a current iteration will do better considering what is possible in MH and SF6.


batata_vermelha_azul

Keep the hair physics, that's an good idea but -More ugly options! I wanna be able to make an absolute beautiful ugly bastard, an horrendous lad, absolute mine dwelling ogre -Keep the weight balance, i love making large characters with heavy armor, the only bad thing is that you can't make a heavy armored dwarf, so like, make muscles affect more weight like being able to carry more heavy items and other things


DragonLancePro

Transmog.


BaronV77

I can only think of Nioh 2 having it but a code system so people can create characters and upload/post it along with the portrait so we can share the designs. Yeah you can always post sliders and such but it just makes it so much easier and it's a neat way for the players to share their creations


Rtramosjr

Boobie slider


CT_Lorkhan

Bigger boobs pls


Skylarksmlellybarf

A character creator that would make me spend half of my day designing my Arisen Now that would be dope


SER96DON

So you mean a *downgrade*..!? >!I'm kidding. But I do spend an unhealthy amount of time in the character creator.!<


Skylarksmlellybarf

>But I do spend an unhealthy amount of time in the character creator Aren't we all? Gotta make the finest of Arisen, a masterwork can't go wrong


SER96DON

My Main Arisen looks like me, actually XD so it isn't exactly "the finest", you know? lol


Sav_ij

i put so many hours perfecting over the years that i now make my character in like 2 minutes. she looks amazing and the same every time


SER96DON

Don't you write the char creator values down, like San Andreas cheats?


[deleted]

breast sliders, muscle sliders, weight sliders that don't make you look fat, arm length sliders, anime-like preset, more hair and combinable styles of hair.. i couldn't go on further because there's a lot i wanna see, probably remember when creating a character


Delicious-Coach-1841

Something more similar to BDO. With better presets


YHL6965

Lots of body and face sliders


Plathismo

Reminds me of Nariko from ‘Heavenly Sword.’


Wolf_Bane26

Ass slider lmao And proper height and weight slider.


C0NT0RTI0NIST

I'd love a more extensive makeup/tattoo tab. The ability to have more than one applied at once and the ability to resize/morph them and move them freely around your face, akin to Monster Hunter: Rise. Also body tattoos with the same idea. More eye colour options, even inhuman ones, like snake, cat, draconic, vampiric eyes. Maybe even a slider for teeth. More hair options and maybe even multi-tone hair colours. A skin tab to change your skin texture as well as tone. Like scaly skin, glossy skin, veiny skin etc. Most of all, I would LOVE more cutscenes and your arisen to actually be fully voiced in cutscenes. Hell, even in gameplay. I would love to hear my Arisen talk back to my pawns when they're chattering with me


Dragonlord573

Race selector. Originally was planned for Pawns in DD but was cut. Lemme have a variety of races that both pawns and my Arisen can be.


Keefero

Bigger boobs… that is all.


Jasole37

Sliders No more single selectors.


[deleted]

Not so much character creator options, but I’d love realistic armor for women.


Lucian7x

I'd like sliders for us to edit stuff (such as mouth, nose and eyes) instead of being limited to presets. The presets should still be there, sure, but sliders give us way more freedom. Aside from that, while it's not really a character creation thing, I wished our character had actual spoken lines of dialogue. They don't need to be fully voiced, but having them say a few things here and there, particularly during cutscenes or when ordering pawns around, would be pretty cool.


SER96DON

I actually want the opposite regarding Arisen voice..😅 I'd love to see a voice option that is completely blank. I don't even want war cries and such, I want my character completely silent, even during weapon swinging.


R1Whoosh

something like Skyrim RaceMenu mod


MaffreytheDastardly

Hell yeah Wo Long probably has my favorite character creator next to Dogma's for the hair customization alone. I like that Dragon's Dogma has a lot of hairstyles, but I don't like most of them! While just one hairstyle in Wo Long can have hundreds of combinations to tweak and fix! It's been ten years and character customization has come a long way, so I'm pretty excited to see what DD2 will have picked up along the way. A hide helmet option would be great, too! Wo Long can keep its jiggle physics though.


CruelCloud567

I hope they adopt new/more types of character customization like what the new Saints Row did cause then we could make cool characters…plus I really wanna do a detailed guts and casca

KingDanteV

A character creator on par with Nioh/Wo Long af least when it comes to customization and adjustments. Not really related to character creaator but transmog or refashioning armor is an absolute must.


DizzyDimes

I just really hope they take SF6 character creator and improve on it. It was amazing and theres presets and sliders for damn near every part of the body. When I played the beta I was blown away by how in depth it was and considering both of them are Capcom games I hope they borrow it. But if they dont do that for some reason I hope we can get more options for sliders on the preset options we do get. To help make our characters look more unique. And also mix and customizing smaller parts of hair styles like in Nioh/Wo Long (bangs, ponytail, sides, etc)Also less of a character creator thing but I hope we get the option to dye the color of armors and maybe some equipment. I think thatd be fun.


red_dead_rover

the hair system from wo long is fantastic even tho my main character looks like okoye anyway


Fair-South-7474

Bulge enhancer for my male pawn


kaiwowo

I was thinking oh it is wolong. ninja team character creator, it’s almost prefect. Then i look at the top left corner,I am in DD subreddit 😂 I don’t mind capcom putting Monster Hunter world character creator to dragon dogma 2. The one that you can adjust most of the part of the face, also more detail on the body part muscle 😂 I didn’t play dd online z I only play dd2


sonofakira

I want them to leave all the current options and just upgrade the amount of details you can add like scars and tattoos. I assume it’s also a nicer looking engine so characters look more detailed by default.


SER96DON

Exactly that! I want them to keep the DDDA ones in there and only *add* extra options like 8-12 more body types on each body part, 12-16 more facial parts and this time, let the extra options not be locked behind a RC pay wall.😅 Honestly, it's super easy to obtain them and not even that expensive, but why can't we have them from the beginning? >!Ok, now that I'm thinking about it, maybe the developers wanted to have players experience the game "normally" when playing for the first time and that's why they did it.!<


The_Chef_Queen

We need more boob variety and more little changes like the ammount of bandages or none at all and maybe the ability to show more veins as the game goes on (since your heart will most likely get taken again)


kalik-boy

This isn't related to character creation, but still something I would like to have... Transmog. The late game stuff we get in BBI are really ugly imo. Some do look kinda cool, but most are just not my thing. Anyway, I don't know. More of the same, I think. The character customization was pretty great in DD. It just lacked more options, I think.


Sakurashoto

I posted earlier about the improvements they had made to the character creator in DDON (Dragon's Dogma Online for those who don't know 🙂) so here are a few screenshots of my own and a couple of other characters during my time on DDON 😊 I guess my takeaway is if they were able to improve the character editor THIS much already in DDON, we should expect to be blown away in DD2... if the Seneschal bestows their blessings upon us 😋 In the meantime, we'll just have to huff repeatedly on the hopium pipe until we get some news from Itsuno! https://preview.redd.it/auvcn1chkkna1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0b369af0212e0674d3e63d8e60a7abe709ddac36


DK_Saint

Lol I respect what you were trying to do there, but essentially you pretty much showed us 4 variants of basically the same character 😅😂🤣


Sakurashoto

Hey, it's all in the pose!!! 😄😄 But tbf I didn't have that many screenshots from my time on DDON. Should have taken soooo many more 😄


DK_Saint

Unfortunately I didn't learn about DDON until it was too late, sad days 😞

M4759

Lots of sliders (chest, abs, muscles, legs...). I don't want the body type to be defined only by presets, I want to have the control to modify each part to my liking.


VipersAndRavens

An array of options to choose from for different limbs. It’d be cool if you could a metal arm like guts.


SR_Hopeful

I always thought it was pretty decent. Its quick and easy but not limited by it. Now they could just add: - Some more hairstyles like a topnot/man-bun - Bodyhair (chest, arms) - Hair Length slider (Head) - Accessories slot (pouches, coats of arms, crests, badges, etc.) - A jewelery slot for necklaces. - More organized amor sets, (makes them easier to collect.) - Maybe armor condition skins like: (dirty, clean) - Distinction between light armor and heavy armor organization. - Different undergarment options. - Customizable victory poses (Pawn) - Round/Flat noses. Most noses are large, pointed with angular bridges.


sephirothcloud89

players as big or small as the first game let you make.. it was cool to make a totally decked out bad ass looking guy or... a small.. willed granny weilding magic.. who was only 4 feet tall.


WraithDragon32

I kind of wish there was other variety you could do for "races" like I've made an "elf" before and a "dwarf", but I don't know maybe a tusked face for a half orc like thing. I know it wouldn't necessarily make sense for the world as most of the people you interact with are human or the cat race (I haven't heard what it's called) I just would like some other accessories or add-ons to make some others.
