View Full Version : Overused Traits?

Okay, so I don't actually have the game yet so I'm not online to see myself, but from the screens I'm noticing a few trends. There are certain aspects about characters that I see in almost every batch of screens...

For instance, in the three humanoid races (but especially Humans) like 75% of males have blue hair. Even like the same shade of blue hair. To quote Strong Bad: "Ya gotta have blue hair..."

For Casts (at least male ones) I think over half the ones I've seen had black armor, or at least black and another dark color. Also, hardly any of them are using the humanois heads! I thought everyone was all hyped up about how cool they thought those were? Ah well.

I'm not complaining, just pointing out something I noticed that I thought was interesting! XD

The only thing I noticed is everyone has the same pants and shirt my character does. It is very annoying.

Very blunt, aren't we? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

Sorry, I 'spose I don't have much place to say since I haven't been online yet. I guess that's just the same PSO-Worlders I keep seeing in the screenshots without realizing it.

I didn't mean to offend anyone if that's what I did.

I can concede that I'm probably wrong, if so, then would anyone else (that's actually online) mind posting anything they see all the time? I still think it's an interesting discussion.

The only big thing I'm noticing is that alot of people make their characters short.

Loli's everywhere...

I see a lot of newmen with white hair and red eyes. Mine is blond with blue eyes and I've actually gotten remarks about how unusual my character is.

I am dissapointed that I cannot make a true mesomorph character. All I really wanted was my HUnewm! Or even someone who looks like him. Instead I have a choice between skinny with broad shoulders (tall or short) or big belly and butt with weak shoulders (tall or short). Annoying.

I've seen 3 other succumbusbots in black leather.. I guess I should just be glad the race/gender isn't greatly overused.

All the FOnewearls i've seen have the horizontal ears.
All the HU/RAnewearls i've seen have the vertical ears.

None of them have the diagonal ones. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

Lolis, not "loli's".

XD is also stupid as hell, please stop using it so much. This isn't so hilarious that you're laughing so hard your stomach hurts.

And I have not noticed these trends whatsoever.

My cast is black, but once I finish buying some new parts, my next step is getting a makeover to change his color. I have noticed a TON of black bots on 360, and not that it bothers me in the least to be the same color, but it's just made me realize (it's so apparant when looking at other's chars, as opposed to looking at one's self) is the solid black bot just looks so...bland. Maybe red with black 'highlights' or something, I dunno, but it definatly needs some color splashed in.

My cast is silverwhite with some black parts. D:

my guy has white long hair and red eyes with the white long-sleeved Neudaiz vest(Kusatarika), and I have a metal headband, I haven't seen a single character who looks like me.

I think it depends when and where you're looking. Sometimes I see an abundance of what you say and sometimes not, it just depends. I have hardly ever seen a CAST with a face though.

I'll admit, I've got a midget beast running around. Though it's completely story-driven: He's a child XD

Hmm, we have to sorta take into consideration that there are only "so many" clothes out right now. So of course there's going to be alot of the same looking outfits out there. And well....

I have blue hair, another character of mine has blue hair, i've seen plenty of humaniod andriods. feh.

We'll be fine, give everyone a month.

my RAnewearl is gonna have the horizontal ears, I prefer those ears over the vertical ones.

Overused traits? XD everyone wears black or a variant of black, thats about it~

Shiro_Ryuu
Nov 5, 2006, 10:11 AM
well, in some way or another, yeah, I guess I have 2 characters who wear black pants and my human hunter started out with a black vest which is the same one my beast is gonna have too.

I have horizontal ears because I want my character to resemble her GC counterpart as much as possible. Pink-reddish hair with those short ponytails(since they didn't have the style with the 2 ribbons so the ponytails is close enough). Oh yea pink-reddish eyes to match.

I noticed that most of the male players wear the same pants.

Shiro_Ryuu
Nov 5, 2006, 10:21 AM
yeah, thats pretty much true about the males wearing the same pants. lol
