More realism to the game

Hello, I would like to give some suggestions regarding the RP part of the game. Yes, neverwinter above all is an MMO, but living up to his name would be nice that some aspects were dealt with more realism, I will say some of them:
Buff specific to each god:
Select a god now at the character creation screen would impact more deeply the game with each god giving a specific buff at the time of prayers at the stake, buffs should be within the context of the powers of each god.
Food: This could be implemented in the game, restaurants and bars Protectors Enclave cede food for travelers, if a character stayed too long without eating receive penalties as we receive when we die.
Customization Companion: fully equal Companions is anti-RP, at least the customizable races like humans, elves, etc., we could at least customize the face of our companions, if it cost AD
Of hair growth: Yes, it is a system that is in games like Pokemon X / Y (N3DS), after some time the character's hair could grow a little and he could cut them in some appropriate place in town.
This are my suggestions, thank you for reading, hugs.
PS: Sorry for my bad english, but I am using Google translator.;)

Oh god no. Don't penalize me and make me RP. Just no.
Why not. Companions are pretty horrible to use, but for RP, why not.
No thanks, sounds like more busy work.
BTW probably the best job I've seen Google translate do, very legible for once.

I do not want to see food/eating added as any sort of required component to play. Adding some eating related emotes, (eat, drink, raise a glass, etc), would be more than enough.
Hair growth? Use the appearance change person every so often if you want to.
I doubt they would add a bunch of different skins, (I'm talking totally different, not just slight appearance changes), to all the companions. I would like to, however, be able to apply dyes to my companions, (at least to the clothing/armor of the humanoid ones).

I'd love to have some eating /drinking emotes too, I'd love to have to eat or drink instead of invoking in an altar, but oh well.
I wonder if they could make it so you can simply create a bind that includes a generic invoke command, and then allow you to use any emote along with it - thus, you could use, say "/em salute" along with "/invoke" or something. Then, if they did add various eating, drinking, conversing emotes, you could create your own sort of invocation ritual.

In Foundry, there's a thing where, in NPC text, you can insert the player character's name. Add another such flag, that inserts the name of the player character's chosen god.
Add another option to the visibility filters, so that you can only interact with a given object, or get a certain dialog prompt, if your god matches one of the ones chosen.
Sure, this is limited to Foundry, but at least it's something toward some RP value, and it would allow some really neat options in Foundry quests.
Don't forget race. NPCs addressing someone as "You! Elf!" or whatever.
Yeah, we already know they can detect our class; it's how skill requirements can function, so just input one of those dialog tags so the NPCs can say "We could use some Fighters/Wizards/Warlocks/Clerics/Rangers/etc. like you."
I want to make my NPCs call people by more things than their name.
And that would be worse than the deity choice not having any in game effect or presence at all?

thanks eldarth!
For me if it provided more power, no, I welcome more power. For the roleplayers asking for this to be implemented, I doubt they want to be told that they're a gimp for the wrong deity choice. LFM 20k+ Must Worship Sune is not really something that would add to the game.
And anyone who wants their characters that lifelike ought to look into The Sims.

From a roleplaying standpoint, I like the idea of food as a necessity. Do you go through life without eating? It is kind of silly to never eat food in a roleplaying game, especially a D&D-based game.
I don't think the other two suggestions/options are viable or necessary to enhance the roleplaying experience.
In the end, I do think there are several long-term bugs that should be fixed before attempting other changes to the game.
Thanks for sharing your suggestions!!

I disagree. I highly doubt anyone seeking a PUG is going to care about deity choice if each deity is given a "pool" of potential buffs. Each buff will still be random, so it's not like you would automatically get the buff you want at that moment.

You mean like no one would ever make a lfm pk 18kgs+ ad? You have more faith in people than me.
I like this idea. Although it does basically turns your god of choice into a cute fuzzy pocket pet, but hey, whatever works.
If the buff is a random one from a list (5-6 possible would be nice), and is at about the level of existing tempbuff items, like the coin or the pocket pet, I don't see it causing a problem.
Even in tabletop D&D it is common for the DM and players to reach a compromise regarding humdrum stuff like this. For example, in the last campaign I played each player just paid a few coins per game week to cover board, lodgings and general upkeep. Unless it is a vital part of the scenario then all that stuff about making sure you carefully maintain your rations is just not a good use of precious gaming time.
I would quite like to see the choice of deity matter a bit more but not in a game changing way. Perhaps some NPCs could be ruder/politer to you depending upon your beliefs, but still serve you regardless. And, a tad off topic, I'd quite like to be able to undertake a tricky quest to change deities.
You make a good point about food. When I used to play tabletop version of D&D, we also just spent a fixed number of coins per day to cover food and expenses. If people had to spend a fixed number of copper coins each day automatically for survival on every one of their characters, there would probably be an uproar among many of the players.
And as you stated, I would also like to see deity choice matter a bit more in the game, including your suggestions.

For example i would like to see a bartender sell beer or such for few coopers/silvers that if you drink enough you will get a drunken walk animation (replacing the run / walk animations), if you drink more you will start falling from time to time.. (can be removed by drinking health potion for example to not disturb regular gameplay if a person want to queue or quest)
Someone suggested a portable campfire instead of the altars in another thread some time ago, I think that idea is not bad either and should be integrated wit more animation.. (cooking for example)
And if they want ROI, make ui bar where i can slot animation (I know they are bind-able and still) and just sell animation packs for AD / ZEN.
I will pay a lot for an animation pack with a whip..
Also slot-able animation modifiers, have some slots for a character for non-combat-walking, non-combat-runing and perhaps some class specific attacks, that if i slot a modifier in them i can change the animation to another. They messed up the animation anyway, TRs have the discarded SW walking animation.. so at least let me buy a **** something that will let me change it back.. or if for examle a GWF wants the DC wiggling animation..
