Gay pride characters!

You guys went really far in making lawful good warrior loog like an idiot, even more of that, look like gay, yek.

Somehow I don't think combat-boots are obvously good. And besides, not all good people are gay. Female characters could be fairies!

P.S. I realise the "combat-boots" reference is a bad stereotype and I know that it is not general true (just covering my [nocando]).

oh [nocando]! that sounds bad! very bad! I'm glad to be a motherfricken thief!

I don't get out that often and travel far. Whats "nocando" mean? I saw it used several times.

Any words in the forum's list of swear words get replaced with [nocando]. This reduces profanity, but means you can not describe a bas.tard sword without deliberately miss-spelling it.

You can't say <boing> on the radio.....

How come they have a little alien smiley face with its middle fingers raised (obviously a f-ck you gesture) but they have the censorship filters on?

The question is, how well this will be implemented.

Again, idea was to make character's actions influence his overall look (i.e. outfit, auras).
Sure, developer can make lawful-good characters look like a pokemons (or gays if you want Handefood), with stupid cartoonish auras, ha another example - asterix & obelix . And I don't want this to happend ,period.

But, provided developer puts some serious efforts, creativity, design into making these changes remarkable - characters may really look awesome whether being evil or good, mages or warriors.


PS BTW what are combat-boots ?

Might be refering to Military boots i dunno

Heheh, saw that on a thread in the Interplay community forums. Yeah, the female characters (except for mage) look pretty risque when naked. But they're naked... When fully equipped in plate armor, plate leggings, etc. they look damned dangerous. The male warrior is almost totally topless when naked, too... but that's another story.

I think alignment would definitely help DD a lot, but it would also make it too similar to D&D. Maybe a different alignment system should be put into place, like instead of "lawful good" you have the "knighthood" alignment, which would be difficult to obtain. Instead of "chaotic neutral" you have the "selfish bas-tard" alignment, with all the appropriate descriptions therein. Something like that would be interesting.

As for appearances, the more options the better. I always wanted to see wings on my character especially after she attained godhood. I also wanted to see glowing swords, or at least colorful swords like those death knights have. More = better.

Thank the lord D&D is not or else we'll have to argue that one all day.

Unless DD goes with a 3d engine their "custom" looks department is always gonna be a little bit smaller I think. (DD2 isn't planned as 3d is it, I've just seen rift runner ss that obviously weren't 3d? Frankly I hate the look of 3d engine rpgs anyway, except morrowind) I may be mistaken here, but I've heard that it's just too difficult to build a vast variety of "looks" with a 2d engine, because every frame of animation has to be drawn. (whereas 3d objects can just be shaped out of a few polygons, textured, and attached to your char model).

In Project Ego, the appearance changes according to many things. Read the post here and follow the link: it's simply amazing, even if it's for Xbox.

Project Ego which is Peter Molyneux(sorry can't remember the spelling)'s work? personality that changes the appearance of a character has happened in Black & White which is also from the same guy. if we're not going to zoom all the way to first person mode, then i don't see much point other than just looking good/bad. but then some of us like things that way..... .

Yikes! sorry Egin, i forgot that u have mentioned B&W.

Well, I'd like to look evil
