The over abundance of shaved head choices is something I have pegged as being lazy. Some of my Inky's have that hairstyle only because it really is the only one that would look somewhat decent on them.
Yeah... I was wondering if they got TOOOOOOO involved in medeval history and discovered the abundance of body lice that exsisted. So decided everyone would be in a different stage of being shaved down for delicing. lol
Hey I was trying to give them some reason other than just plain laziness and apathy, because surely they know that the ability to create a toon you like which includeds appropriate pretty hairstyles is a significant part of who will and wont buy a game?
Something as simple as giving gamers an option to pick their toons race, sex and hairstyle is a large part of why many people buy ROLE PLAYING GAMES!
I, for one, would love to play Assassins Creed and Witcher games, They sound like they have wonderful story lines and gameing fun, but I refuse to play a game I can not make a female character. Just making the choice of not allow people to personalize their toon can cut game profits a lot. (yes I know it costs a lot more to add the ability to make custume characters,but it also increases game sales so it is a choice they balance when they make a new game)
Besides if I payed someone to create say '10' hairstyles for a game and 7 of them were basically just different versions of "BALD" someone would be getting fired!
I wonder who approved those hairstyles to begin with? Someone had to bring them to the main game developers and proudly show them their ideas.... do you really think they sat there with looks of wonder on their faces and fawned over how magnificent they were?! Surely to God, someone must had said (at least to themselves). "Oh, Holy H... E... Double Hockey Sticks! This is going to come back and bite us in the buttocks!" just before he turned it over to be turned into a program. LOL
