    The character creator in TSW is the worst of any p2p mmo I have ever played.
    Top Ten Reasons the CC in TSW Stinketh:
    1. preset heads with preset skin colors--racially just insulting for the most part. Two "black" faces, two "asian" faces, other indeterminate. No way to combine elements.
    2. bad hair, bad colors
    3. monkey face proportions and mouths that never close: read mouth breathers!
    4. weird body proportions
    5. thinking clothes = customization of character
    6. ugliest females ever
    7. new make-up that is so bad, just bad (clowns, death mask, freckles that look like measles) and tied together so you can't pick and choose lip color, eye makeup, etc.
    8. sliders that do virtually nothing to actual face
    9. ONE body type for every body and men and women basically same size
    and
    10. clothes, hair, make-up from some bad early 90's design aesthetic

    You're suppossed to pay for more customization options. Cash shop, it's all part of the plane. Oh yeah, and EA.

    OP, this is EA. They don't think your paltry $60 initial investment, nor your subscription fee (which used to be justified) entitles you to character appearance options! Things like attractive creation options are not just going to be given away, how will the poor studio survive?

    Welcome to the modern MMO, where players are treated as a "mark" by the greedy corporate monsters running them to be fleeced, deceived, milked and coaxed out of every penny possible.

    Games are created now simply to funnel players into RMAH, or cash shops or other RMT. They are not even trying to disguise it much anymore as apathy makes gamers just accept it as inevitable. There is no game makers left, only con artists, flim-flam marketing men, and board rooms pressuring the studios to "put the damn thing on the shelf already".

    They want it all, there is no pretense left. Buy a box, pay a subscription, buy better stuff from our item mall, get no compensation in the inevitable switch to F2P.
