I want super long hair that get tangled in branches while fighting dragons and skirts that don't stop bullets. I want my characters to be both bad ass AND fashionable! Nothing made me happier than seeing Shepard fight her way through the Citadel defenses in her little black dress (Citadel DLC).
They also do not want their warrior or soldier to use skimpy outfits and show some skin because, should you be in the situation of fighting off a horde of Reapers or creepy monsters of the Wasteland, you certainly would cover yourself with as much armor as possible. I know people who want their female warrior to exclusively have short hair because that would be the practical choice in that situation. I understand the constraint of realism and I am aware that there are lady gamers out there that want for their female hero to be as realistic as possible but I am not in that camp. The different features were also limited to a few choices and unless you went with the Elf, you couldn't really add much to a human's face. You didn't have much option when it came to hair, unless you wanted to choose between 3mm or 5mm on your head. Even though, as an overall game I much prefer DAI, the character creator was fairly lacking. I will compare Fallout 4 character creator with DAI's. But this is the type of game we are dealing with here: realistic representation of a fantasy world, so your character needs to be somewhat relatable. Even though Elder Scrolls had different races to choose from, the realism was still too important to really let your imagination loose. I was able to choose some awesome outfits, ears, tales, races and I could go on for a long time. It gives you so much more freedom and options with your character that it's pretty difficult to beat. I suppose that the fact that FF XIV aesthetic is much more rooted in fantasy and anime makes for a more entertaining experience. In my video I mention that I really liked the recent Final Fantasy XIV one and I stand by this. I do like Bethesda's ability at making a great character creation tool and we've seen them do it time and time again with Elder Scrolls so it is no surprise the Fallout 4 version is as good.
