Minimal Cast Customization?

[Worship]

I love casts... but I can't help but notice two things from the character customization videos available..

1. Not much variation between costumes

and 2. Straight up mechs...

I'm hoping for some more variety than what's been shown so far, perhaps some humanoid options for male casts.. Not so every cast player looks like a Gundam.

If I've missed something, my bad.. but does anyone agree? Thoughts?

The game is in a closed Alpha, so don't worry too much about it. There will be more customization.

Alpha.

Phantasy Star.

Customization.


Dont worry it'll be fine.

For Male Casts, only 2 of the models are finished, The RAcast parts and the HUcast parts. The FOcast parts are just a recolor of the RAcast right now. But yeah, they all look pretty mech-ish.

I'm sure they'll have sleek android parts eventually though.

It looks like they've completely done away with proportions and stuff for Casts. You guys will be built from true PARTS, now.

Im happy they did it, really. It restricts them from looking exactly like fleshies, but at the same time makes them truely unique, and now Casts can have some actual robot looks to them.

Maybe there'll be a part that turns your legs into boosters so you look like you just hover indefinitely. Or, one that takes away your bicepts so it looks like your hands are being magicially/magnetically controlled. That'd be so badass.

Ray-bot? That would be awesome. Hang on, calling that name if it's possible, because it's also a wonderful pun.

Really hoping they're aren't limited to the heavy-looking, bulky, robotic parts though.. Even the standard HUcast style from PSO would be great.

This is only the alpha, not the finished game; so alot of things are missing from it. I'm sure there are going to be lot's of other suits for fleshies, and various kinds of Cast parts added to the game in the future....

This. If they don't have about 20 times as many outfits/parts in the full game, it would be what can only be described as a fail.

CASTs in this series have always looked like shit, so there's not much reason to expect it will be different this time around.

FOcast actually looks decent from the concept art, but I'll wait and see the actual in-game model before passing judgment.
