I'm enjoying this game so much. I'm already at over 143 hours played. Gear Score 462. It's bringing the joy of gaming back to me which I feel has almost been lost on me since the disappointment that is currently Red Dead Online. Especially playing with my longtime friends.
However I just have this serious pet-peeve with character creation in some games nowadays. The lighting in the room/setting/environment that you create your character in (just like it was with RDO) is quite different from how you will see and perceive your character's appearance in the open world. Therein comes the issue that the character will end up looking different than what you had envisioned or intended for them to look when you go out there and turn up the grind. Well, at about 100 hours in I noticed my character's cheeks were looking a bit off. Got this serious caved in look going on, like he hadn't eaten a meal in years.
Is it game breaking? Nah.
Does it stick in my mind when I'm playing and should be focusing on the grind/enemies in front me/etc? Sure.
I've thought about restarting but I've put in so much time at this point it would be absolutely crushing to do that.
If only they just went in and patched in an option to load up the character creation again, even for a fee, and let us redo some aesthetics on the fly sort of in the bane of Fallout 76. Even have it available through the barber options in the mirror at the Base of O.
