This is just a sample of the variety of facial markings, hair styles, skin tones, and other attributes that are customizable when creating your character in Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Loving the second one in the bottom row, will most likely use that for my Mirialan consular.

I must say, I am very disappointed. I do not enjoy short hair, or even shoulder-length hair. Please, do not try to placate me by offering a thousand updos. I don't want to look like the local school marm. Or some fluff-headed school girl.

The lekku on the twi'leks swing below the shoulders, well below them. So, why not at least offer a long twin-braid option? It'd be the most popular one, sure, but that would only show them how much we ladies want long hair! (And gents too, I reckon).

I do not like these faces. They're all "supermodel" faces, with huge, pouty lips, sculpted noses, cat eyes, and cadaverous cheeks. I want to be able to look slighly awkward, a little timid, and yes, more cute and sweet as JediDejay says.

The bodies are even worse. So far, it seems to be supermodel with C's, hourglass with D's, monster-woman with F's, and something so unfeminine, it's scary. :(

I want to be a nerdy droid-fanatic, blast it! :? Not some cheap cartoon that's so grotesquely thin (except in the bust, of course), it's painful to look upon. The men, from what I see, are equally distorted. Very top-heavy and not attractive.

I could go on, but I won't. :) Customization is the single MOST important aspect of an MMO for me, so maybe this one just can't get my business.

I certainly don't see any "huge" lips here, although thinner lips are certainly a valid option. And I agree that longer hair lengths should be made available, as should a variety of hair textures. All of the hair textures here are straight. None of them are kinky, curly, or wavy.

Also, the eye types are all about the same. None are very round, nor vary narrow ["slanted"]. It would be nice to see more variety in the shapes of the eyes, as well as the noses.

But as the caption says, this is just a sample. I'm hoping the final options are far more varied and diverse. The options should include features of EVERY "type" in the human family, and then some. And if people want their characters to look like "super models", fine. But it would be nice to have the freedom to go beyond such generic "beauty standard" limits.

Hehe Don't worry ladies. I'm sure you will be uncumbered with a wide range of different hair styles and facial features/ art. As a matter of fact I sometimes create a female toon for that very reason lol!
It annoys me that male characters get a very few select of looks and trends.
The one that caught my eye the most is "bottom row, second one in from the left" The most alternative hairstyle. I've seen this hair style on a sith inquistitor on a video somewhere under "Trailers" I myself am alternative and go for that anime look, and it bugs me that I cannot have that as a male character. So therefore I create females at some point.
So really I'm kind of asking Bioware to design similar or the same hairstyles for male models please =) Thankyou.
"Lol funny how that even when starting as a reasurence kind of comment. It can become a request" =D

We really need more options for hair styles and faces. As a female gamer I prefer to not look at myself across the room when i travel to so many different places. Even picking out a female human avatar has been very disappointing for this website. Too few choices for customizing how we girls want to look. Several styles of long hair is a must.

I am also a female gamer and join the other females in requesting more options and much longer hair. We females need to feel comfortable with our characters and their armor, or we will eventually stop playing the game!

Ohhh yes.. need a lot more options. Come on developers lets make this more interesting. If there is one thing I HATE in an mmo is when everyone looks the exact same. The moment I don't feel unique or the differences are so minimal there is no individualism...I want to quit... Its depressing when you run through a town seeing 5 or more people with the same face you have! Please.. say this isn't it? If I"m going to spend months playing a game I have to not like but LOVE the look.
