Hi.

Here are some preset designs you can pick during the character creation, for those who just want to jump right in to the richness Eora has to offer and begin their journey.

They look like fungus afflicted zombies. Like those from last of us. Disgusting. Bleh.

Gun to my head? I guess the bottom left one looks the least leprous.

So da ya guys think they are keeping... what was it? non-binary option or body type? Whatever it is, will they keep it in the current climate of stuff? I think they won't back-pedal but they won't defend their position either and keep acting like nothing's ever happened Fergie-style :smug:

remember the previous lot? could almost say it's a slight improvement tbh

(oh, also want to remind people that there were codexers posting in this very thread who said TOW faces/art/hair wasn't "woke" and called people crazy for pointing it out)

I made this image based ONLY on pics from footage released by Obsidian before TOW had launched. So, I haven't cherry picked the worst ones.

I specifically wanted to discuss the lack of variety of hairstyles and facial features. The discussion of course immediately swirved to sjw, ugly females forced on us, lesbians, etc.

Infinitron split the thread within hours, and moved it to Gaming Drama later. Tried to retardo it, but then brought it back after he was called out.

Let it be known and remembered.

Literally saw a female creature that looked like toucan there. That game was something.

Take the UE4 engine, end up with these visuals, Obsidian are truly masters of art direction.

I disliked it all around. I spent about 10 hours on the first planet, then genocided a space station and quit playing. I don't know how it's possible to make the game so repulsive, boring and cringe at the same time, but modern Obsidian are trully the masters of their craft.

I lasted up to the beginning of the second hub, took a good walk around the city and checked out. It was so generic, that it felt as if I've already played it.

This game is using UE5, correct? You need some special talent to make an UE5 game look as bad as Avowed. Which is why I have been saying it's laughable to fire the art director over dumb shit he said on social media, rather than because of his "special" talent.
