Why do all the races have same body model?

Post » Sat Feb 08, 2014 2:42 pm

Orc has orc face, human body. Just a different texture.
Same with Argonian, has human body.
This goes for all the races. Body chest model is a copy.

Why can't we use more imaginination, even WarCraft with their 10+ races has not a single body that is like any other.

A Dwarf has physics of a Dwarf, and Elf and so on.. None shares the same.

But a Elf or Orc in this game is just a orc face with tan different texture. Why?!

well they are all humanoids so some features would be similar

anyway I dont think we are allowed to discuss stuff like that in here because its still in Beta?

That's the way it's been since Oblivion. Since they're all humanoid, they all have similar body structures.

Also, as a note, orcs are technically elves.

..... This is not Skyrim or Oblivion.. far from it.
Just because some single player game have one type of body model doesnt make it good. Its generic snd friggin weird. Humanoid argoniN with lizard face Nd tale but the physics if the body maintain human.

XDDDD this is funny, cause all they have been talking about is trying to make it look and feel like skyrim.

and i never said it was a good thing that skyrim had one body type. in fact nobody posting on this thread has said that.

how would you make them any different? They're humans with scales and a tail.

Only because of re-used body models. Look at the argonians in Morrowind and you'll see they had digitigrade legs, like a raptor. So did the Khajiit.

What I've seen of the character creator so far is quite good, but it could be improved further by letting the beast races have these more non-human features, and perhaps subtle tweaks to the animation. They're not human, so why should they move like a human?
