In this video, I show you the revamped character creation of the SciFi-Fantasy MMORPG WildStar. Currently, the Easter beta weekend is in full swing, and I wanted to take a little look at certain changes that have gone live with the possibly last patch before the launch on June 3rd.
The biggest surprise came with the announcement that each race would receive new or, in this case, entirely different body models. The developers from Carbine have responded to a huge request from the community, as for a game that focuses on highly individual character development, this was almost a no-go.
Again and again, expressions like “A AAA MMORPG from 2014 must offer a selection of body models – my character is very important to me and shouldn’t look like the 12424th clone of the Aurin series” were heard. But how do the WildStar makers always say? “the devs are listening”. What else has been added with the final patch, you can read here.
I will briefly touch on the new body shapes, but what was more important to me was to show the variety offered when creating your hero. Maybe you’ll also discover some new hairstyles 😉 At the end of the video, there’s a short section on the newer and somewhat modern UI (user interface). This also made its debut with this patch.
