Asymmetrical faces

Post » Mon May 02, 2011 11:21 pm

So, by now I'm assuming you've all seen the Orc and Khajiit pictures (and if you haven't, go to the thread about them). I want to point out one thing about the Orc picture and expand that to something about character creation that I bet we're all gonna like.

If you look at the Orc, one one side of his face he seems to have a sort of battle-scarring, in that one of his tusks is broken and his eye is blind. I would say that we can safely assume this means that we can have asymmetry in our character's appearance where in Oblivion what you did to one side of the face was mirrored on the other.

In a rush of news about the gameplay, the fact that Alduin's dragons are the Jills and what that means about his relation to the Imperial pantheon, etc., I'm choosing to look at the little things. So what do all yall think?

I don't think you can safely assume we can choose asymmetry in our faces because all of those features could be part of the 'scar' options in the creation process. Imagine cycling through the possible scars and the face simply changing accordingly...

One thing I noticed was that he was blind in his right eye, I hope we get to see that in our own character customization!

Im pretty sure that those are scar, and facial presets you can choose form. However, i would love to see asymmetry facial customization. Infact, i wouldnt be suprised if it was there, because if any of you ever modded races on the Fallout Eden kit, you could make faces asymmetrical. It would be a nice oppurtunity, though those screens look badass enough for me to not care either way!
