I've only been playing PWI for a couple days now. My first opinion about anything this game had to offer was that the character customization is amazing. I could choose to make as goofy looking of a character as i want, or someone that looks just like me. However when i chose the barbarian class to play i was pretty dissapointed to find out that besides changing the shape of the body and head there is no real customization. You are either a little-big guy, or a big-big guy, and that really bummed me out. I was hoping i could at least change the color of the fur of whatever animal i chose, but not even that was possible. I started out with the wolf, but as soon as i figured out that i couldn't change the face enough to make it look like it wasn't smiling all the time i went with the tiger instead, which didn't add any more customization choices, but at least looked meaner. all -in-all i'm impressed with the system itself, but i would like to see that many possibilities applied to ALL of the races and classes.

    I would have LOVED it if Barbs could be customized! Especially if the fur could be changed... like to a black wolf, or white wolf. Or even on the untamed... if we could change the fur color on the ears and tails.

    people tend to get a little... creeped out when you make a character look too much like a real person

    that may be, but what im trying to convey is that you don't even have the option to do anything like that with a barb

    seems like that's something devs should have finished long ago... same happens to venos. it would be funny to have a real bunny or bat-like veno upon form switching.

    one of the best suggestions I've read. b:pleased Absolutly should have more options when make untamed charactors. Can you imagine how cool a female husky or white wolf would look? Or the Beast from Beauty and the Beast, the Wolf? With this option the possiblities are endless.

    I submitted a ticket suggesting same animal transformations for barbs and venos back when I was in the 60 levels. I also find it strange that a cat veno turns into a fox, or a panda into a white tiger. b:chuckle

    Whats wrong with that? I think it's amazing, more life like robots and charractors I say. I wish I could make my charractor more like a real person. I want to be able to walk through Archosaur and have people shout "Hey look, it's Tarja Turunen". But with limitations I can only do so much b:sad

    There's nothing wrong at all, it's just a proven thing in terms of what was being discussed b:thanks
