Female characters in Brink : Othor Games

» Tue Nov 23, 2010 7:39 pm

Hi, I'm new here :foodndrink:

I hope you understand my English because I speak little English, I see game, isn't bad :gun: , but I see in "characters customization" only men, why no female characters in Brink also ? I think is fun if we can create female characters in characters customization = is more real for the history, I think is great if first game with this option

, I hope I have good idea, good day :wavey:

The directors said that having female characters were not done because it would limit the customization.

Welcome to the forums.

Unfortunately women won't be a choice in Brink.

Q: Will there be female characters in Brink?
A: In short: no. Like all developers, Splash Damage faced physical limits on what they could put into the game and had to make the "incredibly tough" choice between massively reducing the variety and quality of character customization in order to make room for new models/animations for female characters, or to keep to their vision of "deep and varied" character creation by focusing only male customization and make that the best they possibly can. "This was a very, very hard decision for us to make", Ham explains, "but we feel that it was the right one for the overall quality of the game." http://brink.chefenco.com/splash-damage-explains-the-lack-of-female-characters/

Welcome to the forums.

Unfortunately BRINK does not have female characters. Originally BRINK was planned to have female models, but although this is a controversial decision, Richard Ham has explained that either the game would allow for extremely varied character customization, or all of the choices possible would be cut in half by adding female models. Eventually, Splash Damage chose to go with the former.
