Gaming is becoming more immersive by the minute. While this is a great thing in many ways, it's become evident that the expectation for gameplay and character interaction has risen dramatically in games that offer little to no customization in the first place.

AION 8.6 patch notes: Burning Blood Fortress, Aphsaranta season reset, new weapon progression, and the biggest endgame changes.

Aion 2 receives major updates in Korea with a new dungeon, Libra system, Abyss changes and progression improvements ahead of global release plans.

Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."
I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed
Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.
So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?
Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”
i find myself with unfair expectations with lots of games. not just customizations.
Great article!
I can relate to this. Im always disappointed when a game comes out that begs for customization, yet doesnt offer it. Oblivion was the first game that really got me going on char customization, even though Oblivion character models look like butt.
There are also two sides to this story. I find it highly annoying when you have to spend 20 mins going through all the different features of your toon when all you want to do is play the game! Some customization is fun but it really gets ridiculous, I could really careless what kind of ear rings my character has. Like you said it also takes away from the main characters of games we know and love. But idk maybe I’m just not the creative type :-P
I feel if anything, gaming customization is beginning to get too detailed and too difficult. I liked in the old days where the character creation was simple and you could easily create a version of someone you knew, or someone like yourself. Now they allow you to adjust everything from the height of the cheekbones, to the width of the nose and it gets a little too deep. I almost never spend the amount of time needed anymore because it's too time consuming and difficult.
That's my view.
Hmm, sounds like some of you don't like too much customization. I personally love to customize as much as possible. :p
