Dynamic Scars Suggestion

Recommended Posts

Hello, today after having a chat with Pokerguy on his character creation thread, an amazing idea was brought up.

 

NO NO NO better, our character starts of with an unscathed body, and gets scars on his face as he gets cut there.

 

Edit: I have done minor studies in applied psychology and i can firmly say a professional can determine the state of your mind and psyche by listening to how you create your character's face and the way you play him.

 

So, here's the suggestion!

You spawn relatively unscathed, but as time goes on, injuries of different sizes leave scars on your character.

 

It would add some story and personality to your character, and tell how much someone has gone through.

 

What do you guys think?

I'd love that! As long as it doesn't get like Fable, where your character is covered with scars and look silly... B)

What I really like is that this isn't a "and if ur a bandit u get scars so pepol now ur bad" thread.

I like it because it's something to show how long your character has survived, which is the clearest goal in the game as far as I'm concerned.

Well, yes, but scars take time to form, and shouldn't get everywhere.

Idea: a much more realistic system to tell if someone is severely injured, blood shot eyes, injuries noises, reduced movement, limbs hanging, anything a normal person would act like when severely injured

If you make a face model or every state the face is in...yes.

 

But...how would you get a scar when you get KoSed anyway?
