This is so true. I always spend waaaaay too much time on character creation justnsoni can't look at my character :(

I spend way too much time in character customization, but making a decent Qunari is hard.

I just use various noises for names. "Here comes *thbt* the dragonborn!"
ShimadaHanzo
Usually it takes to me like 5-10 mins to do a character, i always name him as my name or as a food. Here comes Lord Bread!

One of the best oblivion char i had was by random with a bit of trimming.

"Showracemenu" command is a lifesaver in Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas and Skyrim. The command i used the most so far…

Mass Effect was the worst for me. My first Shep looked hot AF in creation, but a skeleton in game. For Bethesda games, mod the base face.
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Same, mine looked like if you hit George W Bush with a spade. I stuck with it.
tybbiesniffer
Especially with Bioware RPGs for some reason.
Arcian
It's because they choose terrible lighting conditions in the character creator. There should be a damn slider category just for lighting.
UnknownSquid
Oblivion is a good example. Gloomy blueish lit prison cell, followed by a second chance in a gloomy greenish lit sewer tunnel. I tried to

#3 Do other people not regularly switch to third person to ogle their character design?
sunyudai
If the game allows.
DatDarthCaedus
In most games where you can switch, I tend to use third person for travel and first person for fighting.

Elder Scrolls characters are almost all hideous, why would you bother?

I did this in Fallout 3, mostly to pan around and try to spot sneaky Deathclaw ambushes.

I had a Deathclaw rocket out of the sky at me in Olney. Scared me half to death. It died immediately on impact, though.

Weird, the worst I got was the bug where some NPCs fell through the game & wandered to the Temple of the Union...

Rocket deathclaws are a known glitch, their leap sometimes goes warp speed. It probably jumped at another creature somewhere nearby and I

I got back into Oblivion last night. All the customizations push you toward this shit. The skin tone goes black to fucking glowing white.

You can make some pretty terrifying creations in Dark Souls as well. No idea why they added that.

I like that the default black character is a racist cartoonist's wet dream.

I made a man in bloodborne that looked like he was made out of fruit by the foot.

5) offers of help. People would happily give party offers that benefited me and only slowed them down. Casually talking about random stuff

As a gamer girl, I've always found some of those interactions kind of patronizing, but I can see where it'd be a fun experiment.

Sometimes definitely, I know what you mean. Other times it's brain dead worship, other times balls-for-brains motivated sleaze. Although my

4) refreshing enough to enjoy it. Everything before then was "Can this guy help me get x item/level/quest? If no, person does not exist."

3) interactions. I guess it'd perhaps says something about how starved for attention guys can get, that I found all the shallow "friendship"
Juggalomidgetparty
Same, but I've been a huge fan of female heroes/warriors in fantasy settings since 1991 when my cousin painted me the golden axe woman 1/2

riding an armored bear and Pai (3x3 Eyes) riding on her flying demon in 1994. Got a Shampoo (Ranma) in 1996 for xmas.

Do you have that painting of the Golden Axe woman still? Can we see it please? :)

No, all of that cool shit, 2000+ comics, Playboys 1976-1994, and family pictures were lost in a storage fire in 2002. :/ I really wish I had
