Baldur's Gate 3 Character Creation (All Races, Male & Female, Full Customization, All Options, More)

hello and welcome back to another character creation video my name is Lumen and today well today's video has been 20 years in the making I've been waiting a long time for this one today we're having a look at Baldur's Gate 3. for those that perhaps don't know what Baldur's guide three is Baldur's guide 3 is a story Rich turn-based classic RPG set in the universe of Dungeons and Dragons where your choices shape a tale of fellowship and betrayal survival and sacrifice and The Lure of absolute power mysterious abilities are Awakening inside you drawn from a mind flayer parasite planted in your brain resist and turn Darkness against itself or Embrace corruption and become ultimate Evil yeah I mean I know you guys don't need me to tell you what baldus guide 3 is but hey there it is anyway I did it I want this to be a complete experience so we're going through everything now if you'd like to do a deep dive to discover all this to discover about this game I suggest you buy it and play it but if that's not an option there'll be some links below that you can follow check them out enjoy on top of that you'll also find timestamps there there'll be a lot of them I'm going to try and cover everything here it's going to be a long video that the timestamps will be useful find what you're looking for and leave satisfied and if what you're looking for is genitals and nudity well there's a link down there for you too that'll cover all the nice extras wink wink check that out okay with that done let me give you a quick rundown of what we're going to be doing I'm going to be starting by having a look at the origins so we're going to have a look at the custom stuff obviously but I'm also going to show you all the origin characters they have brief introduction videos that you can check out for each of them fully voiced and all that fantastic stuff totally worth looking at and if these characters are interesting to you you can just pick them they pre-made they are customized they have a class set up everything's ready to go you just click it and you start playing very interesting stuff I suggest checking them out once that's done we will look at the races and that will include all their extras so it means their description their features their proficiencies their cantrips and their actions and stuff like that the sub races along with that and then the appearance of each race I'm going to mention you at the start that some of them share appearances so don't think that you like going crazy because you've seen the same stuff over and over again there's gonna be some repetition as an example the High Elves and the wood elves they share options with the drow you can make your drow look like a high elf and you can make your high elf look like a drow they're all there you just unlock the option and then you've got it there are a few of those that cross over like that but we're still going to cover everything for completion's sake right the sub races same thing there's nothing new on the sub race other than the extras and the law so you pick the sub race for the extra actions that you get for the proficiencies for you know the rest of it not for the customization options after that we will jump into the class options there's a whole lot there there are a lot of classes there's a lot to talk about with the classes there are subclasses which you can't pick for the most part here you have to play the game a little bit and then you'll be able to pick your subclass but I will be covering that so there'll be a subclass timestamp and you can check that out as well I have all of them in front of me here I'm good to go on that there are a bunch of extras so some of the classes have deities that you pick fighting styles stuff like that once again you'll check that out it'll be here then we'll cover the backgrounds then we'll cover the abilities then at the end there's something that used to be called Dream Lover I think it's now called The Guardian it's basically just an extra character that you customize that looks over you and we'll have a quick peek at that as well that's basically it says after listing way too long a list so let's jump in first things first we're gonna have a look at the origin characters this right here is hysterian after 200 years serving a cruel Master the vampire spawn esterion is finally free free to walk in the sun free to chase power and free to take revenge let's watch this video Let's listen to his story foreign don't be shy I promise not to bite until we've been formally introduced my name's a Starion and I've spent a century stalking the night hunting for pretty morsels just like you a man called Cazador made me what I am kept me like a pet forced me to do his bidding no more but that Bell's influence broke his dominance over me and now I can finally pursue the one thing I've hungered for these long dark years Revenge I'm going back to Baldur's Gate tracked Cazador down in his lair I'll be the last thing the bastard ever sees thank you that's pretty fantastic so each of the characters has a little cutscene like that each of them is fully voiced each of them has obviously got a unique voice actor actress motion capture is done for each character individually as well it's awesome it is so full and feature complete so that's hysterian let's look at Lazelle Iselle was raised ready for Life amongst the Stars mercilessly Conquering the cosmos as the gethianki soldier grounded she must deal with the world she doesn't understand and find a way to serve her people in a plane that despises her militant kin let's listen to her story [Music] since I was born in the cold reaches of I have known but one purpose to wield a silver sword and ride a red dragon in service of my Regent the gift Yankee Queen vlakis part is to slay a mind flayer and bring its head to my Queen there is no flesh I will not carve and no barrier I will not shatter to see it done I am the one who summed us I am the undying Queen's most unshakable Warrior I am Lazelle of khalir yeah I mean she seems pretty determined I think it's a pretty fantastic backstory as well I think it's going to be a lot of fun and keep in mind that if you don't pick one of these characters they are all in the game world as well for you to meet for you to interact with and so on and so forth if you do pick them obviously you are them and the story changes that's so cool Gail Gail's wizard in prowess once earned him the love of mystra the goddess of magic until his ambition led him to the brink of catastrophe let's see his introduction well Matt stranger you find yourself in the presence of the renowned Wizarding Prodigy Gale of water D please no need to be intimidated my virtuosic talents once caught the eye of the goddess of magic herself mystra who named me her Chosen and her lover thanks to a slight miscalculation on my part that relationship eventually soured as did the greatest of my powers now I'm merely a humble wizard on The Road to Redemption unless I can find the path to something greater you will notice the body language on him completely different it's fantastic they did so well shadowhot she was actually one of my favorite characters in The Early Access build of this game I really enjoyed her it's a Pity she's so undertook a ritual to remove her memories in order to protect the secrets of her fellow Shah worshipers lost in pain a sacred tour but her faith is now being tested like never before my name is Shadow heart loyal servant of Shah goddess of darkness and loss there is little more I can tell you than that my lady Shah tasked me with the mission of such secrecy that I surrendered great swathes of my memory in order to safeguard the knowledge of it all I know is that I must bring the artifact I hold to Boulder's Gate and that nothing can stand in my way my goddess is watching fantastic then we have will known as the blade of the Frontiers will uses his magic to foul the monsters and Devils Menace In The Sword Coast in a moment of desperation he accepted an offer of greater power forcing him into an infernal game he is struggling to play seven years ago I was exiled from Baldur's Gate the city I call home my name is will but the people of the sword Coast call me the blade of Frontiers champion of the meek defender of the innocent the truth isn't quite so simple but they're right about one thing I hunt monsters and I always catch my prey my latest Target is a devil and I'm right on her tail once I'm through with her she'll never escape the fires of the first l that's well this is the latest of the editions Colac colic escaped 10 years of service in the hells with nothing but the ax on her back and the infernal engine blazing furiously where her heart used to be and I wanted to say she's probably the coolest looking character like this is just badass look at those muscles dude look at this cool outfit that she's wearing you can see she has obviously braved the hells because the burn marks and stuff let's let's see what her story says 10 years ago I was sold to the arch Devil's Ariel she put a Hellfire engine in my chest and made me her price Soldier I've escaped now thank you mind players and I've got a few scores to settle if this engine doesn't burn me to Ash first I'll need people I can trust an infernal mechanic and a serious amount of luck but you know what I'm not worried after 10 years in the hells I can take on anything I've got my chance at freedom and believe me I'm going home fantastic as I said I think she looks awesome our final choice is the dark urge this one it's a little different this one you can actually customize so all the others are locked these are carefully curated experiences this one you are playing as the dark urge you can customize your class your appearance all the rest the introduction however is voiced and acted on this character so let's check it out my rancid blood Whispers to me kill kill again my ruined body yearns to reap death in this world and when this foul urge calls it possesses my whole being injured Beyond repair I know nothing besides this I must resist the dark urge unless it consume my mind I must discover who I was and what happened to me before my twitching knife hand writes a tragedy in blood so I really like this one because it has broader Strokes it's more open-ended in many ways I think it's pretty cool and again you can customize so in this one you remember nothing but a path paved with blood unimaginable cruelty Whispers to you from within Can You Escape it would you even want to hmm it sort of sounds you know similar to some of the others but [Music] different as well again much more open-ended and you can customize this one so if you want something more curated but you want some control over it then this is the one for you and that brings us to the end of the origin characters now we're going to go back to custom and we're going to have a look at what's available so as I begin here I'm just going to say that you can on the right hand side of the screen as we go through all of these options see the full character sheet basically so the way this sheet works is it'll be updating every time I choose something different right now you can see we are a white Dragonborn level 1 sorcerer our stats are there the extras are here the cantrips the Spells the actions the proficiencies just peek at that if you think you're missing something if you think you want to see something there's information there that if I perhaps missed it will still be visible you'll still be able to check it out right there on the right hand side of the screen easy to spot so just keep an eye on that it's quite useful now what we're going to do is when we go for a custom character we're going to first have a look at the races we're gonna go through all of them we're going to have a look at the races and what they're about and then we'll look at their customization so what I'm going to do is each race will have its own timestamp and then all of it will be in there we're going to start with elf we'll look at the description the features we will basically look at all the details if they have any can trips or actions we'll add that in there then we look at the sub races as well and then the customization on top of that then we'll move on to tiefling onto drow onto human and so on and so forth so let's begin elf with ethereal countenances and long lifespans elves are at home with Nature's power flourishing in light and dark alike the features the base ratio speed you can move 9 meters per turn that's pretty standard I think most races have that you will notice as we go through the halflings the Gnomes and the dwarves have a little bit less and I think only the wood elves have a little bit more all the others are locked to this amount I may be slightly wrong with that I mean if you're in there but I think that's that's the gist of it then on each of these you can inspect it doesn't do much if you inspect it it just allows you to basically look what each of the the highlighted bits are over here on each of these you can do it basically on every single one but the proficiency you have Elven weapon training proficient with a long sword short sword short bow and Longbow and you can see all of that just adding up here as you select it they have dark vision they can see in the dark up to 12 meters and then Fey ancestry you have advantage on saving throws against being Charmed and Magic can't put you to sleep that's actually pretty useful I'd say now before we jump into just customizing this let's look at the sub races so for Elf you have high elf and wood elf the High Elves is of the mystical Fey wild High Elves value magic in all its forms and even those who do not study spellcraft can manipulate the weave they get a can trip fire Bolt and as far as I understand yeah you actually get to selected so it's like a spell that you pick on a high elf because magic is basically in their blood you get to pick from a good selection of wizard spells uh currently we have Fireball selected you can see here we have acid Splash I'm not gonna cover every spell in its entirety you can see the tooltip and pause on it if you'd like to and then there's bone chill Firebolt poison spray Ray of Frost shocking grasp blade Ward friends Dancing Lights light magehand mine illusion and true strike this is a pretty important choice so yeah you should definitely pay attention to that you should definitely pick the one that you think will be the most useful it's kind of cool that they give you uh basically combat options but also stuff that you can use outside of combat that'll be useful you know like friends as an example it's it's fun it's once again just giving you all the options that you'd need so what else as I mentioned before the High Elves and the wood elves they do share customization options the elves in general have the same customization and the drawers also share along with those but what else these owls spin the reclusive lives in faerun's forests Decades of training in archery and camouflage are enhanced by an otherworldly swiftness they are faster so the others move at nine these guys move at 10.5 it's pretty cool I mean it's useful it's really useful and that is it for the elves description now what we're gonna do is we're gonna jump in so as I mentioned you can pick here either High Elf or wood elf and I'm gonna say this probably multiple times but their customization options they are basically the same now I'm going to show you where the differences lie I'm gonna pick high elf and I'm gonna jump in and we're gonna customize it and then I'll show you how it differs from wood elf first things first you get to pick a body type bottom right over here you get to pick a skinny female you get to pick a I'm gonna have a skinny male it's not really a skinny male but a thin male then you get to pick a buff female bigger taller more muscles and a buff male now what I will do for you is I will just switch the class to Barbarian so you can see the muscles you turn the censorship off you can actually make your character completely naked and you can look at everything you can admire it and if you want to see that well you know there's that other video that I've Linked In the description go check that out but basically they have muscles you can see these two slightly bigger slightly buffer these ones slightly smaller still muscles but slightly less of it that's where the difference ends the faces you will notice are the same so everything from the neck up is exactly the same and you should just remember that as we go through here you can see that the face on the big one is slightly bigger but it's just slightly larger all the options are exactly the same okay so we're gonna go on female first I'm gonna click on edit appearance we're going to look at it and at the end I'll randomize so I'm going to show you right here at the start quickly this is how it works these are the skin tones available for high elf and if you take all skin colors then it basically unlocks it and you have every skin color in the entire game that's all the skin colors from all the races and the way it works is they suggest or recommend these and those would be the high elf ones if you don't want to use those you just say screw it and you keep going right so as I mentioned body types right here you can pick these and they give you basically a nice starting point whether you want a bigger character or smaller character easy peasy you pick then you choose your identity this is just how people refer to you this is nothing to do with your character's visual appearance or anything like that they'll refer to you as him or he if you have male she or her if you're a female or they and them with other as far as I understand then voices let's listen to the voices what was let's hope the locals are friendly something just woke up down here be wet is opened more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next hmm let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there's magic keeping this chest sealed like where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next next let's hope the locals are friendly Pals something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped that's the lot of them you can obviously pick male voices on your female character and vice versa you do you you pick what you want next up we have the faces pretty important choice as I mentioned these are the same on high elf and on wood elf and as far as I know I think they're the same on draw as well but we can look at them all anyway you're gonna see there are some decent differences here but they are all Elvish faces right so you know you're not going to find all the different ethnicities that you expect on the human ones no those on the human faces pretty cool nice choices here as I mentioned the skin colors are curated these are the Elvish skin colors these will be the high off one specifically I do feel like this it says their Moon tone I guess that's for like a moon elf I don't I don't know you'll see different ones on the drow as well but there are a bunch of decent skin tones here that you can pick from uh they do go pretty dark which is cool and they go pretty light they will never be a floor in any of this I'm just telling you I will not find fault with this character creator it's not gonna happen it's not gonna happen they basically thought of everything here uh you know just there's even beards on the ladies not the Elvish ladies the elves don't have beards but the rest of the ladies and like yeah you show me that then you've shown me Perfection I'm not gonna go over all the skin colors uh we'll just go show you a quick example of like you know the fact that you can do basically anything you have all the skin colors from all the different races here and if you take that off you're back on the Elvish ones right there you go next scoring [Music] these are some of the better looking scars that I've seen in a game they are crisp and clear they are detailed they are a little gross sometimes as you can see and they give you more customization you know you're looking to make a backstory for your character you're looking to tell the people in your party who you are when they're just like when they just look at you they must know this is what you use for that it's fantastic once again more options better they even have the customary slash across the eye that I'll probably end up using up maturity you get to make your character a little older and this is also kind of well done they have a real nice texture to the wrinkles it's something that you don't often see you know what I tend to try and do when I look at the age on on a character is I look if they actually change the skin and they do in this they actually make the skin wrinkly here there is absolutely fantastic detail so yeah you you can you can do whatever the heck you want with your character it can be old it can be young fantastic then freckles lots and lots of freckles it's beautiful go for freckles you have the intensity and you have the quantity it's it's very cool how if it's actually I don't know it's difficult to explain but it's kind of freaky how they just appear and you'll see when we do the Vitiligo as well it's kind of it's kind of weird it's sort of just like it's just materializes on your character's face and like when you when you take this and you like add them it's like you've seen raindrops falling on the uh on the on the dry ground you know you'll see exactly what I mean when I do this now it's kind of crazy right so well done I don't know the dynamic nature of all of this is just you know so for the purposes of this video we're gonna leave it off and we're gonna keep going sorry I'm having fun I'm having fun it's so cool there's so much nice stuff here dude when we get to the hair then oh my God then you'll hear me gush body art they say body art it's facial tattoos there's a bunch of tattoos for the face here I do not think there's anything that covers the entire body I'm not sure we're gonna have a look now this is something that I didn't fit before I came in here I looked at a bunch of stuff but I didn't look at this these are beautiful I think I've seen that on someone's butthole I'm sure I'm sorry that I mentioned that but I've seen it before somewhere now you have to sit with that image in your minds I do apologize my friends these are really cool these are really cool he says desperately trying to change the subject all right carrying on oh that's fantastic I like the texture on it so it's like you have the clear crisp ones and then you have the the pre it's not prison test but it's like more like War tatts you know oh that's fantastic very nice uh you can obviously change the color I'm getting to that I'm getting to that let's just make sure it doesn't cover the body in any way no I don't know what that says hmm okay see there's a nice texture to this as well when I change the color you'll get a good look at what it will look like on different stuff there's one on the neck it's a rose I love this this doesn't this would be cool if it covered the whole body oh I love these so much I think I I picked one of those for my Diablo character I saw this one in readful [Laughter] it's a nautical tattoo good God I still have nightmares of that that covers the ears kind of cool dude these are some of the coolest tattoos man is that a pegasus uh-huh very cool look at that yeah wow dude look there the beholder this one that makes me think of cats I won't be using that one check this one out sick it's just a simple sword down there very cool wow sick it just keeps going oh dude look at that it's centipedes cool cool cool cool cool cool oh man that is really sick okay let's look at the colors I'll do it on these you do the intensity then we look at the colors keep in mind you can do different colors on each of them obviously some of them might look a little different like the ones with more clarity with like thinner lines and stuff like that they will look finer you can obviously also change the skin color of your character and then the contrast will be completely different if you know what I'm saying you have a darker skin color you have some white uh tattoos it doesn't lose its color they are still just as white as this dude there's something about the white tattoos that actually looks fantastic I don't know I just feel like I could make it work on a character you know oh the yellow is really nice as well it's so bright man I've been like looking at a bunch of games recently where it feels like they've pulled the saturation slider way too low not this game next up piercings let's just take the tattoo off piercing Style they have names fastened Stars the two earrings and then the studs lapis stud muffin oh those are cool subdued loops midnight tears silver gold Gala I'm not sure if this is how it's supposed to be looking it's very black I'll assume it's how it's meant to look dark moons ooh it's called the red centilla maybe when we get to the other races it will have a color maybe it's just a bug I don't know Colton serpents Crimson hilt Dirks hmm yeah that's not Crimson in any way jeez okay I guess I have one gripe with the character creation it seems like some of them are bugged borovia thanks maybe they're not maybe this is what they look like a Minotaur ring easy breezy oh those are cool [Music] archface Wheels come in a ring board rings and then we back on none all right then we moved on to eyes this caught me off guard the first time I saw it it's like it's like a teeny little menu here you get to pick heterochromia uh or or not and then you get to pick the colors as you can see it's a curated list you can zoom all the way in and see the eyes some of the best eyes I've ever seen in a video game there have been others that have had nice eyes like this but this is the kind of basically look that you can see even from all the way over here now like yesterday I was looking at paleo's customization and with paleo you like this far and you can't even see the color it's because of the way that they put it together the reflections that they use on it the basically the overall look and feel of the eye and the way they set it up for you to see they can easily just mess it up and make that you can't see even a little bit of the color and it's kind of a pointless choice but in this the eyes are super impactful and you get to see your character up close and personal quite often now you will notice that the list of colors here is not all that long however it expands and I'm gonna mention this every single time we come through this menu with a race I'm going to mention that it expands and well you can pick from a whole lot of them I'm not going to cover them all here now I will just show you quickly that you can get demonic eyes you can get completely black eyes you can get much brighter colors you can get basically everything okay there are lots of choices here they just try and curate it slightly and give you the Elvish ones and that's that it's on you to do what you want heterochromia you pick one you pick the other once again you can pick one of them on this and the other one on normal you can do what you want with it it's kind of sick next up makeup this is what it says it's regular makeup you do have some control over it by changing the color down there we'll have a look at those in just a moment it is quite well done yeah it's not just like paint slapped on the face it actually looks like proper makeup and I was very impressed by this the first time I looked at it this is much the same as it was in Early Access so I do know these already they're cool they're cool so if I take this darker one here and I look at the colors you get to basically change firstly the intensity and then you get to make it metallic right and what this does is if there's light that shines on it if you basically have it in a certain and it's better to show it off with something that's not black uh let's take like the blue one in a certain light it will look like a car's Bonnet it will look metallic then you can make the metallic One Look glossy as well which gives it in my opinion a pretty fantastic look it's fabulous and then you can also just take the metallic off and just have it glossy which generally tends to make it less intense and deep but more bright light colorful happy you know but you can make it more intense by just sliding that over there and that's fantastic as well again it's it's a super look the colors however they're different on each of them so I'm gonna have to ask you guys to use your imagination a little bit uh what I'm going to do is I'm going to pull them both to Max and then I'm going to show you how a few of them look right as an example this is just amazing like if I show you the gold or the yellows down here it's it's super cool as well I'm just going to show you a couple of them and then I will show you what they look like without them so you can see the colors and once again just imagine how they would look because again you know to go through all of this would just be utter madness he says while recording a massively long video anyway colors here okay none of them hidden away from you yeah yeah the elves they have access to all the same makeup stores as the humans and the drows and the Gnomes and the dwarves and even the dragon folk they all have the same well I don't know if the dragon folk actually have the same ones I think they have different ones but you know what I'm saying the gray one specifically look really cool if you put the gloss in the yeah it's pretty sick these ones here it's pretty nice again lots of cool options here oh look at that one wow I love it I love it I don't know how they made the model so detailed but they did and uh yeah larion I love you guys for this I will love you forever for this I am going to be playing too much of this game and I'm probably gonna be spending way too much time in the Character Creator because good God there is so much cool stuff that you can do with this like you can just hit your imagination run free and you will find something here you'll find something that can easily hook up to what you have imagined in your mind easily it's awesome it's awesome it's awesome I love it uh you can also have a look down here at the bottom if you take this off lips this one's pretty self-explanatory uh it's the same as on them the eye makeup you basically get to set the metallic tint level and the glossy tent level then you get to choose the colors and they look magnificent it is look at that red look at that red it's I can't oh man I can't I cannot it's too nice oh okay sorry sorry sorry Jesus just colorless Lumen what the hell man you know it's more than just colors okay it's more than just colors it's the whole package it brings the look together sorry I'm passionate about character creation okay jeez man but seriously it does bring the look together and if you spend a little bit of time here if you do a little bit of work you know if you go through this and and and and really try I'm telling you right now you'll make something that you will show to someone and they'll be like how the hell did you even pull that off because there is so much going on here that it'll be very easy to just miss out on some of it it'll be very easy to just accidentally Overlook something or you know whatever speaking of which here comes my favorite part hey now I'm not sure how we're gonna do this they are sort of multiple ways you can look at each hairstyle I think that the best way to do it would be to set a highlight to a bright color let's say yellow and we'll set the regular one to something like black and we will take the gray in off grain works the same on every single style right the highlights however they do not so we're going to put the highlights on you have a lot of choices with color and we're going to go through them now just know that this could potentially look tacky okay just ignore the fact that it looks tacky and rather just pay attention to the fact that there are different highlight sections that you can look at yeah and um there are different basically styles that you could create with this okay so once again ignore my choices I'm just picking something that stands out and we're gonna look at the hairstyles together I'm going to zoom one out so we can look at the big picture that's fantastic I love it equality that's what equality looks like this right here this receding hairline that's that's equality uh oh I keep clicking accidentally this is kind of nice here that you got on the sides that's a cool style as well not bad again just know that you can obviously have a solid color here or you can have the intensity of the Highlight list you can do what you want with it dude the hair in this game so I have until this point sort of had Hogwarts Legacy up on a pedestal for their hair system yeah we've got another Contender here we've got another Contender here and it comes in the form of Baldur's Gate yeah yeah uh the hairstyles here the hair texture the way the hair looks I mean I think that if you could play this at like 4K with all the NTA listen on on like a massive Monitor and you like really Zoom your Oculus in at this and you look at it it's gonna look so magnificent I mean it looks magnificent right now to me and I'm here on like a plebeian 1080p monitor with like uh you know well the graphics are maxed out but still still this is really cool this is just really nice here and I want to move a little quicker because I will never get through this stuff if I keep going at this speed now on the topic of here I'm gonna tell you that when you zoom in on this for instance you see that there's much more detail than you can see from here but I'm also going to say that the hairstyles are shared across basically all the races right so your elves your dwarves your halflings your gnomes they all have these styles available to them there's nothing that's sort of like locked out or gated or whatever because why would it be yeah I mean sometimes you might actually not have here on a character but but like if you do have here then you have all these choices the one thing that I will tell you that is not shared is facial here facial hair is just not on some races you will notice that certain races just can't this is such a cool hairstyle can't do facial hair oh my God this one's also cool dreads oh it's so long oh my God no I must keep going I must keep going I can't stop if I stop I will stop forever so the elves can't have facial here the humans can both male and female yep oh I love it I love it there are so many nice hairstyles it's beautiful it's absolutely beautiful and you know looking at all of this the only thing I can think of is like how the hell am I even gonna make a thumbnail for this game there are way too many cool options here it's like I generally like to pick the best looking or the coolest looking options and sometimes that's really easy because sometimes the games just have like one or two really cool hairstyles or one or two really cool characters or you know whatever uh this game no no no no no no no uh no this game no no no it's got way more than just one or two that is so cool it looks a bit like Cersei Lannister it's nice all right so you'll notice that there are some that are sort of similar and there are some that sort of look like they could be related to others and yeah yeah there are there are a few that sort of cross over a little bit but man there's enough variety isn't there they got the longest Styles they got the short styles they got the complex Styles they got the nice hair physics oh God they got something for everyone [Music] it's like you oftentimes think that maybe like oh you know they definitely get a trip bite by not to adding enough male styles no dude oh my God where was I oh no oh no oh no let's go back here we go here we go somewhere over here I keep accidentally selecting stuff fantastic I love it it's kind of cool also to see you know when one of the origin characters hairstyles pops up here and you're like oh yeah I know that one awesome real cool and I mean you've seen like half of it here right the big picture is that you can actually still change all of the details on these in other words you can pick any old colors you can combine them nicely like this one for instance man you can have more or less intensity you know they even feature like a bunch of really cool curly Styles versus a bunch of really nice long Styles it's insane it's actually insane let's go up and pick just some random style quickly and then let's have a look at the colors available let's take this one so hair colors you are not so much limited with these I'm going to turn the highlights off quickly oh that's a nice blonde oftentimes the blondes just don't look that nice look at the details my God these are the hair colors you're not so much limited with these they give you basically everything and again it would be stupid if it was limited I find it ridiculous sometimes that games do limit it in any way shape or form these are some of the best Browns I've ever seen have you ever heard someone say that I'm not even going to talk about the Reds but basically like the idea of limiting hairstyles and colors is just ridiculous like if there's hair on someone's head it can be colored and it can be styled like what's your thinking what is your thinking behind limiting it you tell me that and I'll call you a fool okay that is a beautiful orange wow dude look at this color oh my God yeah okay if you want to like cragasm over something if you want to just like flip over something let it be the hair colors these are magnificent this is beautiful and again you can do combinations here right and like I I really feel I wanted to show you an example quickly okay I really feel like if you go for something like let's say a rid and you combine it with let's say an orange you can do you can do some really like some some subtle stuff you know some slightly more subtle stuff and you can make some really really really cool Styles uh you can do anything with it though as you can see like anything oh I love it so for the highlights you will notice that the colors are slightly different they're slightly more we're going to go look quickly at basically I'll put this on let's say white have a look at the highlights quickly the highlights I mean I'm gonna I'll skip through them pretty quick if I might miss one or two here or there just don't stress it too much because you can see the colors here and they do translate pretty much one to one they have basically more bright vibrant crazy colors here and it makes sense it makes sense they mean to highlight things oh dude kind of cool I mean even that's like wow that's wow that's what it is look at that look at all these options you're gonna have and I want to just say if anyone's sitting here right now watching the entirety of this video looking at me click through hair colors you're the man thanks for that welcome you found a like-minded Brethren yeah yeah we like these things this is crazy I would be doing this anyway okay I would be doing this anyway that's the beauty of this whole situation oh never ever have I thought about Brown in such a way you know never ever now our next option is the grain so it's a good way to show it off if you go for black then you come on here and you do grain intensity then you can gray whichever color you want it's like so weird but let me show you like gray neutral that's what it would actually look like so if you pick the gray here then you can sort of have your hair gray a little bit right but then you can gray into purple or you can gray into yellow and it's just a different way to highlight your hair once again this is the this is the method that people will use to make characters that blow your mind you know they'll probably do something like they'll combine the grain with the highlights and and the neutral color the basic colors and then they'll have something just stupidly cool you know and that brings us actually to the end of the uh female elf customization uh keep in mind once again this is sort of um just a look at the High Elves in the wood elves right it's not so much the one or the other what I'm gonna do now uh is I'm gonna just jump into wood elf because I think we're on high elf right now and then we're going to just show you what the the defaults look like there and then I'll jump on to the next one but let's randomize first because that's kind of fun look at this look at this look at this oh don't look at this if you want to keep your mind intact rather look away it's crazy and it's a smart randomized system can I tell you why so there is the Vitiligo slider that basically if you think about it it should in essence be like somewhere between 0 and 100 every time right but it's not look look it's just that one option there every now and then you have one character that has it we saw one just a little bit ago I think we've actually seen two already and you know every now and then there's there's a character that has it but they don't always have it on so it's a smart system where it as you can see here sometimes picks it and sometimes doesn't it's really cool one of the coolest randomized systems that I've seen and yeah it gives you a good look at basically everything that's available fantastic customization fantastic awesome now we're gonna go back so that was the high elf and if I go to wood elf now you'll see this is the default wood elf and I'm just very briefly going to show you the way this works so all this stuff is the same right you will notice that the body type is exactly the same you can look at the male body you can look at the slightly larger female body and what you're going to have is your skin tones will be different so for wood elf these will be your options and if you came here looking for wood elf customization just go to the elf customization the overall one and and just know that this is what they will suggest for you so you can look at this and you can see it's a bunch of sort of woodier looking colors I mean they're called wood tone these ones here and and they're the ones that they suggest that you use on on wood elf you can go all skin colors and then all the options are there and that's cool but the faces are the same the scars are the same these options are the same the body Art's exactly the same over here and then the hair you will notice it's also the same right so it's it's basically all exactly the same your hairstyles are the same all the customization is the same you just sort of play in a different pot and you get different abilities and stuff with it and you get suggested certain things so that's it that's that's your that's your wood elf customization right there okay let's move on oh it's time for mail let's do this now we can obviously jump into a larger male and it doesn't really matter it's all the same the faces and stuff they don't really change you're working with the same thing so let's do this first things first identity you get to pick male female non-binary or other that's just how people refer to you in the world and then the voices we're going to go through the voices every time basically because they are here it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hills something just woke up down here be wary this place has trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed feel its aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened more of those wretched things that's about it there are some decent voices you can obviously as you can hear there pick a male or female voice you can sort of do what you want these voices are sort of shared across most of the races but it's it's an easy enough thing just to listen to them every time now the customization head choices these are the Elvish heads these will be shared between wood elf high elf drow half elf actually has its own faces and humans definitely different but these are shared amongst those all the male faces are the same as the metal faces there it's kind of interesting because you actually get to set your Edge your maturity over here but some of the faces as you can tell come with a slightly more mature look already now we're gonna go the basic one here the standard one and we'll take it from there skin tones these are the ones that they suggest for high elf right and as you will see uh I I will jump at the end of this onto wood elf and I'll just show you the tones that they suggest there but basically you have access to all the skin colors if you click that button over there and you can basically do whatever the hell you want with it you can go out of your way to make your character look funky funky fresh you can just you can pick any old color you want and it is easy enough you know no one's going to complain about it no one's gonna call you out for looking strange you do you man you do you if you pick all skin colors you will notice that the colors from the gifianki I hear the colors from the Orcs the colors from the brow the colors from the damn dragons okay it's all here uh okay maybe the dragon ones aren't here but the others are here and you can really do just basically anything with it but these are the ones that I suggest so we'll pick one of those for now scoring very nice scars what what a thing to say about scars very good looking detailed scars okay they do look quite realistic they are the same on the male and female characters they are the same against across most of the races okay so just know that when you do go through them you're basically going to have most of these same options then you get to set your maturity it's basically the age of your character it's a very cool setting it actually affects it quite drastically and yeah again some of the faces already looks slightly more mature and you can make them look even more mature if you'd like so that's pretty cool then you get to do the freckles I'll set the intensity up then you get to set how many you want on them and then the intensity just makes them brighter or darker brighter more transparent or more opaque basically then vitiligo you get to actually set this on basically every one of the races this contrasts with your skin color as you can see so picking a darker skin color here makes that show more it's cool yay for inclusivity it's good and that is the end of the general options body art same as I'm female you get a bunch of different options for your tattoos here and uh yeah I gotta say like I I'm pretty impressed by them I'm pretty impressed unfortunately uh you're making a male character here but you are not getting any facial here here so there's no worries about your facial hair covering the tattoos or anything like that but uh yeah it's sort of a limiting factor I want to say now keep in mind the half elves they can have beards I don't know if the trout can have beards that's actually a bit of a question mark in my mind right now I imagine they cannot but I I do not know so don't take me on my word for that we'll see when we get there we'll see what there is when we jump in we are going through everything we are being exhaustive here we are being comprehensive here and we are looking at every single option many many times in the same video just because you know sometimes you want to know what it'll look like on a male elf or you want to know what it'll look like on a female orc or on whatever else there is in the game okay let's have a look at the tattoo colors you can set the intensity that's basically just the opacity and then there are colors they're pretty bright I mentioned before that I really like the white here as a color and it's pretty cool what you can do with it honestly you can combine this with the skin colors to make some pretty cool stuff because again the skin colors are varied and numerous and it's fantastic lots of different white shades plus obviously you can set the intensity which obviously helps as well there you go let us remove the tattoo for now piercings I mentioned before I do think that there's currently a problem with the piercings but you can get a good enough idea if you look at the piercing itself and the name this is called lapis stud muffin I imagine they're going to be blue or something like that and these are subduers Loops midnight tears that could possibly be black but I think there's a bit of an issue with it right now just because of the fact that the colors on some of them are completely black I did restart the game already and I had a look what it would look like you know if it changed or whatever it didn't so it's it's a slightly deeper rooted issue if it is an issue I don't know maybe they're meant to look like this I just doubt it because of the fact that some of them are called like as an example Crimson Hilt so I imagine just that the ones here like for instance these ones would have red hilts that'd be red there's a Minotaur ring that's at least looking right easy breezy arcfee swirls same as on female by the way all of these Bond rings and we're back here [Music] eyes you can set heterochromia then you can choose two different colors or you can just choose one color as with most of the other options they give you a curated list here of eye colors that they recommend for this race and then you can just say screw you guys I'm making my own thing and you can disable it and you can go for what you want to go for I'm not going to be going for all of them here I'm showing you the curated ones because that's what the race has but I'm going to show you just as an example that you can do whatever you want with it you can go for the Demonic ones here which are black background with a color there are a lot of different ones there are a lot of different styles you could pick from and there are other colors that are brighter you know that are slightly more fetching and you can sort of just pick and choose what you like right right carrying on then heterochromia same thing you can sort of do this and that and it works it works just fine all right makeup they do not limit you with the makeup the males can have makeup too if that is their desire and that's cool that's cool it's good you have an intensity slider here I'll just show you that before I carry on so you can make it brighter or less so and they have good looking makeup I personally feel like they covered all their bases with the eye makeup yeah I mean there's there's like you know some room for stuff like blush and whatever but I really think it's unnecessary uh when you are in here and I'll show you how it looks quickly we'll take this one when you are in here you can set the metallic tint level and you can set the glossy tint level and if you pick a color it will look fantastic it's pretty self-explanatory you can see the difference between them metallic just makes it look metallic it'll look like some metal paint on you and if you take metallic often put glossy on it makes it look like it's sweaty it's witty you can do both of them together and then it just looks awesome and some of these colors they translate quite nicely into well this but I'm going to show it to you quickly let's say with just the glossy on or yeah classy is fine I can leave glossy on but if I put the metallic tint on obviously it changes the color entirely so keep that in mind like as an example the gold looks way more gold if you do the metallic version of it there's even one called hot chocolate God that is the color of hot chocolate I really like that okay nutmeg I don't know if that's I guess it is the color of nutmeg again uh you can sort of go crazy with this lots of different options here and if you combine this with the skin tones and the tattoos and stuff like that well well you've got a lot of options you've just got a lot of options that's kind of crazy I do commend you if you end up watching all of this though because man I make these videos assuming people will use the timestamps to skip between the different parts of them because yeah I mean like that's how it would generally be used you know I don't expect someone to sit through a three or four or five hour character creation video These are really nice the gray ones when you add the metallic tint to them as well so there you go a lot of cool options here then you get to do the ellipse the lips have the same options on them where you can make them metallic and glossy for the purposes of the video we'll just put them on glossy again and we'll just go through them it makes you look pretty fabulous you know these are nice options these are fun these are cool and I would not hold it against you if you picked one of them on your male or your female character because damn why wouldn't you want it but you don't have nail polish but I guess it makes sense because most of the time you're probably going to be wearing gloves I do hope there's an option to hide your helmet I assume there is they must be there's always an option to hide your helmet right cool colors here again you can change them by just sliding those around a little bit there you go cool okay let's take this off quickly let's take this off quickly and let's go to the hit the hair options are fantastic the way I'm going to do this is because I want to show you basically uh how the highlights look I'm gonna pick a color here let's take blonde is fine and then we'll make the highlights something like something darker is there black let's go for black right this looks a little gross but you get the idea the reason I'm showing to you like this is so that you can see where the highlights are generally I think I'd have it the other let's just do it the other way around quickly uh black neutral and blonde there we go or I can go for this actually white here right white white white white white gray cream gray gray white there we go okay perfect so now you can see you can see sort of where the uh where the highlights are so then you can pick the style based on that the style that you want based on that now there's a lot of hairstyles so I'm going to skip through these pretty quickly you must just sort of try and keep track try and pay attention man there's a lot of really cool hairstyles I'll mention this multiple times but yes you do have them all crossed over you can pick all these same styles on female and I mean yeah you could be saying to yourself well Lumen like why did you end up doing every single one of these separately well faithful viewer because oftentimes you want to see it how it looks on the character and it's not always the same you know with these these Races they have different faces that could be my uh my tagline for my character creation videos it's like come on man I gotta look at them all I do fantastic such cool hairstyles [Music] oftentimes games don't have great selections of short styles oftentimes games don't have good representation where like curly hair is concerned or you know basically any other choice this seems to have pretty much everything covered it's crazy it's crazy and this is nice I love how some of them have these very straight splits it just makes once again that you can do some pretty interesting stuff with it I have actually already seen from Early Access that there are some cool things you can do as an example with face paints and and different colors in the hair now keep in mind again like if I zoom in all the way you will notice that there's a lot of detail here you might look at some of the Styles and think oh well this looks kind of crappy no it doesn't when you zoom in all the way and you look at it right up close and personal there's actually really a whole lot going on there when you zoom out a little bit I guess it loses some of its shine not so much shine just loses some of the detail which is fine but again I'll mention this you do get to see your character right up close and personal in the cutscenes of the game all the damn time so make sure you pick a face that's uh agreeable make sure you pick a overall look that's agreeable because good God you know fantastic curly Styles as I mentioned now as we get to the end here let me show you the hair colors there's no give all hair colors option okay there's no basically option that will unlock more magically unlock more hair colors there's just a certain selection on each of them I'm going to take the highlights off quickly and show you these ones now obviously this may differ race to race keep that in mind I don't think it differs all that much race to race I'm just saying it may I'm covering my bases here as I mentioned when I was customizing the females there are some really nice hairstyles here the highlights are actually a little bit different and you will notice that the highlights have more sort of brighter Colors oh that's that's really nice they have brighter colors and you can sort of just accentuate what you're going for here with a nice highlight using those the pinks are great the purples are great the blues are kind of nice I will say that the blues are you know that's the one thing I will say it's like your it doesn't look like a blue here but when you put it on here it does look quite nice again however in the highlights it makes up for it it more than makes up for it there you go okay highlights uh if you look at them right here you will notice that you can say all and then there's a massive list of highlight colors I'm not going to click on every single one of them I'll just show you some of the more extreme situations you have a much blacker black here that on certain Styles if you look at as an example which one was it that had that split straight through the middle I don't remember but there was a split straight through the middle on one of them that basically gave you a fantastic look at here's a good look at at how dark the the highlight color can be and and you know how light it can be as well and there are a bunch of different colors here if you untick this that you can use and you can use the great effect so there you go then finally you have grain options so with the grain you get to pick basically the default colors which are these and you get to have your hair sort of gray any amount or you get to do grain with other colors so it can be purple in or pinking as well you know you can do whatever your heart desires or read in you can you can have your character ridden whatever the hell that means there you go all right fantastic fantastic and that brings us to the end of the mail customization on high and wood elf now let us randomize then we're gonna have a look at what the limitations on what else Fantastic look at this God it's awesome it's just so much like each of these tells a story most of them not stories you actually want to hear but like still they all tell stories right geez man some of them are pretty some of them are pretty bad they go to extremes right they don't hold back there you go that's your randomization on the elves good Lord good Lord insane insane okay okay now I'm much like with the female I'm just gonna quickly show you what it looks like if you go on wood elf so there's your default look and if you edit the appearance here then faces are the same all right you have the same selection of faces here but you will notice that your skin tones are these they are the wood tones they're the wood elf colors that they will give you and they are slightly different from what you would see on the High Elves but if you click this button over here you have everything everything that you could possibly want so do not worry if you think you're gonna miss out on it it's all the same stuff and with these things it's all the same all these options your eye colors are a little different but once you untick this it's all of them so if you perhaps couldn't make up your mind with some of these things just know that you can unlock it or you can use the curated version I say if you can't make up your mind sometimes it's better to follow their advice you know and if I randomize here you will notice immediately that it just it throws caution to the wind and it starts going crazy with stuff you know one of the cool things that I've noticed is that if you unticks all skin colors then you randomize then it randomizes within this pool and if you do that and then you randomize then it just goes mad and it picks any of the colors which is sick it's nice once again that you have control over that okay back we go so that is somehow the first race done now we're gonna move on to tieflings we're going to move on to having a look at what this race is about they look pretty awesome descended from Devils of the nine Hells tiefling's face constant suspicion in faerun thankfully there Arcane abilities make them natural survivors there are sub races but we're first going to look at the regular features their base speed is 9. dark vision they can see in the dark up to 12 meters then they have hellish resistance they have resistance to fire only taking half damage from it you will notice that the proficiencies are over here but you will you will see that when we when we pick these as well that doesn't really change but as we go through them the weapon proficiencies and stuff you should look at that just as I mentioned at the start of the video keep looking at this side over here right now when we jump in you will notice that each of them has a different cantrip that they can cost so let's do the sub races quickly before we do the customization you will think by looking at them that they have their own unique options but no they all have the same options you just have a law reason for looking one way versus looking the other way so asmodeus tiefling bound to nessus the deepest layer of the hell is these tieflings inherited the ability to wield fire and darkness from The archdival asmodeus's Infernal bloodline they have produced flame which makes the flame in your hand and sheds light in the radius can also deal damage when thrown right mephista Phillies tiefling descended from the Archdale Mrs Mephisto feelies these tieflings are gifted with a particular affinity for Arcane magic they have Mage hand as they uh cantrip that conjures a spectral hand that can manipulate and interact with objects for 10 turns which is pretty cool and you can notice obviously immediately that they look different and then lastly we have zariel tieflings these guys like to fight from this aerial bloodline they empowered with martial strength and can Channel Syrian flame to punish their enemies formatterjee get an advantage on intimidation and performance checks so where these guys are concerned they they do say oh these guys are you know empowered with martial strength but their stats are the same so you can see here they have the same stats as you switch through them right exactly the same females here they are nothing different about them okay so it again just gives you a low reason to pick one over the other and you get that can trip so keep that in mind and we're gonna jump now into the customization right we're gonna edit the females first then we'll jump into the males now as I jump in here I'm just gonna say that this is the tiefling customization I can show you very briefly uh what the defaults look like on each of them and I will at the end it just takes a few seconds uh what their suggested colors look like but just keep in mind we're looking at the T flings now they all have the same options the same faces the same horns the same everything right they just usually curate them a little bit let me show you what I mean as we jump in edit appearance oh first things first I guess I should just show you the body shapes so that's the small female one that's the small male one you can see they have some ridged sort of bits and pieces here they don't just have like flat skin it's kind of nice the bigger one looks pretty buff it's nice and the bigger male one fantastic customization options on both are the same all right can you look at the camera please here we go so first things first I showed you the body types already identity you can pick male female or non-binary and other that's just how people refer to you in the game World then the voices there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly health something just woke up down here be wary this place has trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next here we go now the heads these tieflings have some of the coolest looking faces that I think I've seen they look fantastic there was one I will say complaint that I think people had with tieflings is that the horns look a little strange sort of around the the head here but they've already addressed it a little bit and you can see they've got these little bumps and layers and whatever and like they made it look a bit more natural I feel like they could put a little bit more shade in there but overall it still looks pretty amazing all right and you'll see it changes a little bit with each face each of them has sort of a unique look where it does look more natural as you go through some of them but others not so much so the faces these are going to be the same on all 3D sub races right so basically just know that the color that you get in here that can be changed the faces are the same the colors you have all the options as I jump into the skin color here you'll see that these are the ones that they suggest for this specific tiefling sub-race it's warmer tones you will see that it's sort of pinkertones Browns neutrals stuff like that and then when you go into as an example the is it the asmodeus ones then you have the blues the colder colors stuff like that but again we're gonna have a look at all of them here on this one specifically and we are going to hopefully cover everything foreign those are the suggested colors and you can see some of them look like they're really fit but when you go to all then you basically have everything unlocked and I'm going to skip through them a little bit okay uh yeah I'm showing you basically everything that you get here the docks these are sort of more like brow colors um the lighter ones here you can basically do anything you want with it and just know that again you can do this on any of the races it's just sort of a limitation that they put in place for you you know if you want to basically play a lore friendly character then you know what to do don't click on the all skin colors button but it can give you more freedom with your customization so if you want to make the read guys to get their passives but you don't want to be red uh yeah no problem they got you they got you you can even be green okay you can even be green it's pretty cool for the purposes of the video we'll just go with this one it's fine uh maybe a little a little darker I mean I don't actually remember what we were on by default but that's fine there we go scars they look pretty cool I'm going to say that immediately it's also pretty cool the eyes that they give you here these are obviously the Demonic ones are by default the ones that you'll choose we do have some tattoos here and some mascara makeup or whatever around the eyes just ignore that for now we're not there yet these always pretty cool there you go as we go down maturity you can make any of them look a little older freckles you can take the quantity up and down and then the intensity is just basically the opacity and you can have your Vitiligo on anyone there you can pick it on basically any of the races this interacts quite nicely with the skin colors so you can sort of make something pretty unique where that's concerned if you'd like to there you go [Music] right let's take a slightly lighter skin tone just because I want to look at the makeups and stuff on it let's go with this one for now and then let's jump on to body art [Music] [Music] here we go foreign tastic I should actually take the makeup off just so that you can see properly what's going on there you go now keep in mind we can change the color here there are obviously a lot of choices for color I am actually as surprised a little bit that you can't do the metallic tints and glossy stuff on the tattoos but it's fine it's obviously not a big deal [Music] there's obviously still a lot of options available here regardless and for anyone wondering these are the same manual the races so there is no one tattoo that's specific to like tieflings or one that's specific to dwarves or anything like that they all have the same ones okay let's look at the colors intensity is basically just the opacity there are a decent selection of colors here they basically give you full RGB control like they give you all the colors in these selections that you could possibly need I I guess there might be some Niche cases where like you might want a slightly brighter yellow or slightly brighter pink or yeah the blues are actually covered but for the most part everything's here I really like the way the whites look I said that before I really like the way the yellows look actually they're quite nice and yeah you can do some pretty cool stuff with it like some of these look pretty fantastic if you if you put uh a brighter color on them there you go right piercings piercings fastened Stars lapis stud muffins subdue loops midnight tears some of these seem to have some issues with their Lighting in their colors but you can still get an idea of what they look like at least like these are called red centilla but they're definitely not red I imagine knowing larion this will probably be fixed within a week they'll be very quick with this maybe even a day but it'll take about as long as it takes for someone to actually report it so I will report it and tell them that these might be bugged but yeah for now just I imagine that they'll be different colored and we're back on none all right eyes so these dudes the tieflings have the Demonic eyes you don't have to have demonic eyes you can have a more natural looking teethling as you can see here but they have by default access to the Demonic ones you'll see in just a moment when we get to them they have cool colors but they also have cool colors with the black background the whites are black and honestly like if I could zoom in further I would because like it looks so nice the detail on those eyes and I mentioned this black many times already here you've got multi-colored ones the Demonic blue it's got like the look oh it's really cool like you got there again this one the purple you got like the green glow in the middle but basically the eyes in this game are are so impressive because like you could zoom all the way out and you can still see the eyes I don't know how they do it but like most other games or many other games there's nothing like that like when you zoom all the way out good luck seeing the color of those eyes but in this game yeah man yeah let's take this one I really like that all eye colors you can take anything from any of the other races you can see here it's kind of boring bother because the Demonic ones are the cool looking ones so yeah and look there's actually like a little fire going inside there it's really sick just know that you can you can go all of them then heterochromia uh you can sort of take the one on the one side and the one on the other side easy actually looks fantastic makeup this is the makeup around the eyes you get to set the intensity over here and then you get to set you'll see in just a moment when you look at it the glossiness and the metallic Factor and I think it looks pretty cool yeah it's nice let me show you so metallic glossy both together if you take a color let's say for instance this yellow it can make it look pretty spectacular pretty damn cool and it translates quite nicely onto all the other colors and with this once again you can just you could you can come up with such fantastic combos with the face paint the makeup the eyes the skin color all that stuff together you can do some super super cool stuff but let me show you this without the metallic because it'll give you a better look at the colors and then you can just imagine that you add the metallic to any of them and it changes it like that okay pretty cool pretty cool [Music] and yeah I mean like in terms of choice you are spoiled there is basically nothing better out there right now they give you everything like man it's like a character creators with dream this it's like the the perfect character creation system oh like this one's probably gonna look sick if you make it oh look at that there's just so many nice options here and like I will I'll be able to sit here all night looking at these because it's just it never ends man like you know there's always something new to see when you're looking at these there's always something exciting to create it just keeps going you know it just keeps going once again you can sort of mix things up quite nicely by using these two uh or using just one of them you know and there you have it that's the makeup now we're gonna do the hair oh there so I'm gonna show you what the hairstyles look like and I'm Gonna Leave the horns on because we're on the T fling customization now uh deal with it okay deal with it let's take black neutral over here for the hair color and then let's take a nice red for the highlights put the intensity all the way up to the top let's take red four I'm doing this so that you can see where the highlights are as I go through here we've done the same on all the others so far but basically a bunch of different hairstyles here the horns are just shoved on top there some of them look better with horns some of them look worse with horns but these hairstyles are on every single race so the ones that have here at least they will have this hair right so just keep that in mind so if you think I'm cheating you out of your hairstyles by having horns on them I'm not it's on all the others as well just go look at one of the others and you'll see them there it's cool it's cool and just like that he realizes he can use the arrow keys to turn the character that makes it so much easier and I'd have to keep clicking over there that's so nice see see I say that some of them look better with the horns and some look worse I feel like some of them are just natural fits like oftentimes you just have it sort of stabbing through the hair like that but other times it looks like it was sort of made for it like some of the hairstyles they're just suited better like as an example I feel like this one is the perfect tiefling hairstyle maybe this one as well because it's sort of it goes into the hair it the hair goes around it and sort of fits through it naturally it works you know some of them do work it's awesome this one as well I feel like this is also a pretty great tiefling one I'm not saying all the ones with the fringes are the best ones I'm just saying that they look kind of nice when they cover the horns a little bit you also notice as we go through the female options here that when we jump onto male you will have the same options there that's so cool man I love this split and this one and this one I love this face I think I might make a tiefling I don't wanna I don't want to like decide preemptively because I've not decided and I'm like sitting here and I hope you guys are sitting here too just like thinking about this wondering like what the heck you're gonna make because there's so much man there is so so so so so much uh and and like I'm thinking Barbarian uh you know I'm seeing this ax swinging around here the whole time I'm thinking Barbarian maybe tiefling maybe wood elf because you get a bit of run speed there um but man tiefling is just it's so intimidating and like really cool man because like you're playing as something a little different you get to experience a different sort of reality uh in that sense where they do say like they sort of hated in faerun you know they hell spawn yeah why is anyone gonna be friendly to them but you might find allies in unexpected places you know with that being the case tiefling man what a concept so that's awesome that's really really cool now as we're going through here I will just show you the way this works you get to pick the one color you get to pick the other color you can make the highlights more or less that's the red on the side there the highlight colors are far more plentiful okay I'll show you the basic colors quickly these are less extreme there's there's good at good colors here they look amazing lots of nice saturation on the color of vibrancy everything else these colors are awesome I'll zoom in a little bit so you can see up close and personal the colors are great like this is some of the best hair color like the Browns oh I mean and I barely ever say nice things about brown but like these are nice Browns and we get to the Reds and the ginger Colors oh it's just it's fantastic it's fantastic and then you can obviously combine it with the highlights to make something spectacular like this one here look oh that's so bright it's so bright the red it's sort of like a wine red I feel like it's it's sort of missed the mark a little bit not gonna criticize it really the pinks are fantastic they're awesome really really nice pretty cool the greens are good too and I mean like the one thing I will say that tiefling has going for it above all the others apart from the horns because the horns are fantastic but they have the fact that you can do almost anything with it and it can be explained like in some obfuscated law to be natural so it's cool you know do what you want so now this specifically on this hairstyle gives you a nice look at what the highlights look like not going to go through every color here but you get the idea that there are some very bright colors to choose from here they mixed up a little bit in the highlights here you'll see that they're sort of not in lined up like the hair colors are but there are more colors here anyway and you can do some cool stuff you know I really love the idea that there is a story to be told here if you want to tell a story and that's like it's being told with every little bit and piece of the character that you create in you know you can make some weird half hot hot off cold character like my hero Academia if you want you can make someone like for instance the origin character that they have with the scars and stuff on the character are actually explained and yeah once you've looked at all the options here you will appreciate those origin characters even more because some of them have unique options on them I said I wasn't going to go through all of these here I am going through all of them they look fantastic though don't they okay there you go that's a good look that's a good look uh they sort of uncurated I don't know why you have only v's and then only those because it's no real Rhyme or Reason between the choices uh gray in what this does is it Grays your hair you can choose the amount that it Grays the hair over here and then you can choose the color that the gray is once again the same as the highlight color it's not exactly the same but a similar selection lots of Grays and sort of more neutral tones obviously because that's what the grain would require but then you also have some colors here and you can mix and match quite nicely as an example if I take a yellow here and I take like a black over there you can make your character gray yellow if you know what I'm saying it's cool yeah it's pretty cool lots and lots of nice options then speaking of lots of nice options facial hair on the ladies thank you larion this is what I've always wanted it's like it's my birthday I come early [Laughter] let me just change the change the hair quickly to something up top so that it's not covering the beard I love it when they give you unrestricted access to beards okay the elves they don't have beards yeah you know like whatever screw the elves okay we're tieflings now we can look dapper if we want why not the ladies grow a beard and a mustache like come on man this is cool and there are some really nice beards here I think that as I mentioned earlier the hair texture and the hair work that I saw in as an example Hogwarts Legacy was some of the best I'd ever seen But the beards in this are the best I've ever seen and I mentioned before like the hair in this game and a lot of the Styles here they're definitely on par with the Hogwarts Legacy stuff but these beards they're a level above they are definitely a step up and and you know what makes it even better is when you actually do the Grain and you and you and you look at how cool it looks when you do it properly so if I go for like the the proper crater it's like oh man you look at the look at the facial hair and you choose the amount it's like it Blends so nicely in there you can be like a silver fox with just a little bit of gray a little bit peeking out here and there or you can push it all the way up and it just looks good any way you do it any way you spin it it looks great and then the the fullness and the thickness you know it's it's funny I was talking about this recently when I was streaming it's like it's funny how much things have changed it's like you look at this beard as an example let's say this one over here you look at the movement on the beard you look at the amount of strands the amount of basically pixels and work that goes into this one beard you could look at this beard right here and this whole beard it could have a bigger and more complex mesh it could have more pixels particles texture work whatever you want to call it then the entire Eastern Kingdoms in World of Warcraft that's how complex and how good this beard looks it's insane they've done so well recently with with stuff like this and like Baldur's Gate you're looking at the gold standard here man you're looking at like the best possible choice I have one criticism and like one criticism only about this system and I mean it's a simple fix it's something they can do quite easily it's like stubble the only thing that I think that they could have done better on is stubble in other words they could have given you all these could build options like they could have given you this one or whatever then they could let you add some stubble onto your character that's the only thing I could criticize the colors on here this is your hair color so don't think that I'm I'm sort of screwing you out of choices it's the same hair color it's the same gray color but yeah the only complaint that I would have the only criticism I would have is color now let's move on to the horns this is pretty exciting if you're looking at tieflings you obviously want to see the horns these each have their own name I'm going to zoom out a little bit so you can see them in the entirety hornless Rune curves baleful spikes oh let me actually go back and let me just turn the tip color on to something else okay just so you can see how far it is so the horn color will leave on ash the tip color is yellow I know it looks gross it does look gross okay and I'm sorry about that but it shows you at least where the tip color is so you can sort of see where you're going to combine those colors once again this is the kind of thing where you can sort of make your character look a specific way and you can do it quite easily like there's just a lot going on here you know I think it'll look cool if you could make like blue into red on the horns that would look kind of cool you got some sort of rammy looking horn some devil horns uh pointy horns and then some blunt horns that's cool lots of good options the horn colors there is no let me take the the tip color off uh uh looks like you actually have to have it on interesting okay there's no like curation on this list you know if you're looking at the horn colors here you've got the same ones on all of them and that's that there's a lot of decent options here same colors from the hair colors and they just sort of threw it on here there's some darker ones some lighter ones I am not 100 sure if the sub Racers have the exact same ones but I think they do I do think that they have the same ones and like the the darker Ash ones here obviously give you the look of black if you're looking for that and then the lighter ones give you the look of white and they do they do have some nice colors here absolutely they even have pink you can even have pink horns because why wouldn't you want pink horns it can be like a neon tiefling you know why not oh yes black and white okay at the end right fantastic as I mentioned the tip color you can make that uh basically anything there's a lot of different options here and yeah you're going to want to mix and match you're going to want to mix and match okay I think I'm distracting you guys with a facial here unspoken rules remove the facial hair after you put it on to show it off that brings us to the end of the customization on the female tiefling keep in mind once again you can change the body shape the bigger one and it will look the same they just have different presets on them you will see that the faces and stuff are exactly the same now let's randomized and let's see what this gives us oh that's so cool that took like a human man that is super duper there are some really cool Styles here you can see even some of them have heterochromia some of them have uh obviously the Vitiligo on them ah man how will I ever make my own character there are just so many choices here some of them have beards and others do not I love it the randomization system in this game is just perfect you know you can see they don't weight it towards the Beards they don't put the Beards on every time they don't put the Vitiligo on every time they don't do heterochromia every time it's often but not every time it's fantastic there you go and just like that you've seen a slew of awesome looking characters right now before we jump into male I'm just going to go back quickly and I'm going to show you the defaults on the uh mephista Phillies and the zariel ones I had the names wrong earlier but it's whatever so on these guys your skin tones they're a little different you've got the Azure tones and these are the sort of Bluer ones uh storm tones over here then you've got some neutral tones some brown tones and even some red tones but these ones up here are the unique ones and then if you pick the all skin colors you have access to everything okay now if I go down to the horns I will just make sure yeah so it's exactly the same on both of them and then if we go back and we have a look at this aerial one we look at their defaults quickly then you can have a look here they have the sulfur tones the smoke tones very cool obviously the sulfur ones are nice neutral ones and then more neutral and then you get down to the other ones the darker ones and stuff like that and then there's all the skin tones that's it and once again as I mentioned the horns are the same on on all of them there we go that's the females for tiefling done now pretty exciting we're gonna jump into the males they look pretty awesome fantastic body type I have shown you already what it looks like but I'll show you again there's the normal one and then there's the massive one these two top buff I mean like Henry Cavill buff they look awesome the faces obviously are the same as you get started here on the mail customization you will and I'm gonna tell you right now this is the tiefling customization for all three of the sub races they're all the same they just have a few curated options but you will notice that you can pick your identity you can pick male female or non-binary or other that's just how people refer to you in the game world and then there's voices let's listen to them let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened it was back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next [Music] what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened so you can pick male or female voices it's not a thing faces pretty impactful choice although these guys all have pretty square jaws they have a certain look to them right now again keep in mind that if you pick one of the other sub-racers you will obviously have the option to start with a different skin color here but once you get to the skin tone Choice down here you will notice that even though they give you a curated list of skin tones you can pick all of them as with the others I'm going to go through the curated list and I will just show you afterwards what the differences are but once you click on all skin tones then it just sets you free and you can do whatever you want with it but there are decent options here there's a lot to choose from they translate quite nicely they always look good I mean like any of these skin tones I I can click literally anywhere here and I can be like yeah man I can make a fantastic character with that skin tone a few different combinations throw a few different shades of tattoo on there or whatever and boom you got yourself a nice character you can put all skin tones on then you can just go mad you can make yourself green you can make yourself pink you can make yourself purple you just do you right you just do you you can make your teeth fling into a orc link whatever it's on you it's up to you go crazy let's take the [Music] red tone there you go this one for now scoring pretty cool scars nice options there's these two here across the cheeks across the snoot big slash over there on the lip this one I'd love to hear the story behind this but yeah it's pretty cool there you go and you can set the maturity you will just notice it put some extra frown lines in a few wrinkles here and there it's cool it looks better on certain faces than it does on others it sort of modifies certain faces more than others and then you get to do freckles the intensity and the quantity it's kind of cool and then leave it to Liga you will see this pop up when we start randomizing you can sort of have as much or as little as you want you can't can't change the color on this uh but that's normal that's how it works you get to change your skin color and it will just contrast with that in different ways right body art let's take the freckles off quickly first though no one should ever say that line that's such a sad thing to say oh let's remove the freckles oh please don't I love the freckles tattoos I'm gonna go pretty quickly through here because for the most part this is the same on every single race I say for the most part it is actually exactly the same on every single race but I say for the most part because you know on certain races it looks different onto a certain like combinations it looks different and yeah you might want to do different stuff with it you might want to know what it looks like on a tiefling instead you might want to know which parts the horns are covering how it looks with the horns and so on and so forth there's a lot of things you might want to know so here they are being shown off right colors let's pick this one some decent choices for colors here you get to pick the intensity of it I don't mind going through all of these because there's not that many and they're very bright so it's nice to look at there we go I did mention before when I sort of will say again it would be cool if they gave us the same options that they give us on the makeup with this where they can make it glossy and tinty uh by tinti I mean like metallic uh it's cool it's cool when you can do that but there's the colors to take it off for now and then let's do the piercings uh I'm trying to remember quickly if the makeup yeah the lips are in the makeup okay piercings they are I think a little bugged right now the colors are maybe missing but you can sort of still get the gist of what the piercings are like you can sort of get a good look at what they are regardless just know that the colors might be a little different as you uh keep playing the game and they patch it or maybe when you jump into the game it's actually fixed I don't know I don't know man I don't know but they are pretty cool regardless there are some nice options here not sure why they're called Bard rings but anyway there you are there you are eyes so the tieflings they have as a sort of default the Demonic eyes and you can pick regular ones they have a few suggested regular ones here but with the curated choices you mostly get in the Demonic ones you'll see in just a moment they'll pop up here you go the Demonic ones are good choices they actually you can see them moving there's like a little fire burning in the eyes they are fantastic they look awesome uh the game just has good looking eyes then you can do all eye colors and you get a whole lot more choices you can do sort of a whole lot more with it and then you can do heterochromia so you can pick one in one side and one on the other side and it can just look even more spectacular right fantastic cool good makeup [Music] it's a decent selection you can change the color on these which is cool as well and they have some nice extras let me show you what I mean you can set the metallic tint level and the glossy tint level what this does is it transforms the colors into something else as an example a simple cream color ends up looking like some super cool metallic silver it's it's awesome like the Grays as an example are pretty great but let me show you the colors quickly without the tint on basically there's what it looks like with just glossy without glossy it looks like that on the colors like gold for example that's what it would look like you put the glossy on you put the tint on it's pretty awesome it's pretty awesome but let's look at them without that on clay pretty cool thank you decent selection of colors as you can see I mean they go really bright like oftentimes you think ah man you know they're going to lose some of their shine if you put it on a darker skin tone or on a lighter skin tone they just won't have the contrast that they need they do they they really do so you get to pick and choose here then you also get to do the lips and the lips have the same situation where you can put the color on and then you can make them metallic and you can also make them glossy and they just sort of look fantastic uh let me for this one yeah let's go crazy let's leave both of them on and I'll go through them give you a good look at what they could look like uh just know again that they will look a little different like as an example if I go through the colors here and I get to like the pink you take the metallic off then it's just a brighter color this sort of makes it a bit darker but it also adds a nice like reflection to it it's really nice we're just mixing things up a little bit you know there you go mixing it up okay I always think that like the one color people sometimes forget is the green uh fortunately they didn't forget it here there are a lot of nice Greens in Baldur's Gate but still it's like it's one of those often forgotten colors here I'm Gonna Leave the horns on because it's a tiefling you know we're gonna choose black here yeah and then we'll take white for the Highlight [Music] um gray white is fine and then let's just turn the intensity up now I'm gonna attempt to show you what they all look like while wait what why is it on yellow gray white there you go okay basically I'm going to show you the highlights because you know obviously you might want to know what the Highlight Zone on the hair looks like just know that it might look a little more tacky it's like as an example if you take something like this hairstyle maybe that's not the one I'd want it to look tacky but you know certain hairstyles they have sort of what it looks like the gray is mixed in now I'm just attempting to show you where the Highlight zones are in other words like this one for instance if I just take the highlights off it'll look nicer just black you know well I mean nicer it is in the eye of the beholder that might not be nicer to you anyway you get the idea I'm just attempting to show you everything it's kind of cool I like that they went for realism here they've got the receding hairlines they've got the big bushy here they got the braids they've got everything man and again you can do all of it on male and female all of it absolutely all of it is that not heaven I would say it's pretty heavy dude that's such a cool look it's pretty heavenly they even sort of try to cover like ethnicities and stuff like that you know you got everything the one thing I think that they do not have is like a big big afro it's a bit of an oversight I guess but like I guess it's not that common hairstyle I don't know maybe not where I live but that's the one thing I guess I have not seen here and you'll notice that some of them have cool splits like half and half like this one or like this one but yeah for the most part there's a lot that you can do with the Highlight system uh you can go crazy with it and you can make some pretty fantastic looking styles and if you think I missed something on one of these like the hairstyles or whatever you can safely just go and check one of the other races and you will see all of them there sometimes with different color selections as well like I use different colors almost every time I like to use black as the base but sometimes I use Brown you know sometimes I'll even use blonde if I'm feeling crazy and then I'll use a darker color as the highlight yeah I've been known to do things like that anyway as you are coming through here and you pick in your hairstyle just keep in mind that your hair color here is also going to be used for your facial hair so hair colors let's zoom in quickly I'm going to take the Highlight off I'll just turn the intensity down on it and uh yeah you get to pick a pretty decent number of hair colors here anything you like you can do it these are the same on all the races I'm showing you the same stuff here it's like these hair colors it's it's as far as I've seen it's the same on human it's the same on Orchids the same one GIF Yankee it's the same one these dudes there might be some slight differences here and there I I don't want to like I don't want to say one thing and be wrong but like I think it's mostly the same like thus far it's been the same so I assume for the rest of the way it's going to be the same too that might be a stupid assumption but I'm gonna go with that for now right there are cool hairstyles though hair colors though like there's a lot there's bright colors there's darker colors you've got everything you want here I am skipping 102 here but you get the idea let's go with this for now the highlights the way it works is you just on different hairstyles as I showed you you pick from a different highlight and it will put it on there for you and there's a lot of highlight colors I will not go through every one of these because you've seen most of them already but the idea remains that you can do some pretty fantastic stuff with this and I think it's an impressive system right there we go grain it is what it says it gives you a choice of basically any color almost the same as the highlights but with a lot more gray and then you get to let your character gray and I mean like you can have your character red as well your character can be reading your character can be Greening uh you can do whatever you want with it once again so much more customization than I think you even need now when we jump into facial here I just want to say firstly this looks amazing and secondly the colors here they are taken from the here okay so like if you change the the color here it's going to change the hair color too okay so they're linked you can't do a different color beard ah the beards look really good on the Min I like it I mean I've seen the Beards on the ladies but they look really good on the men these chiseled Jaws these sharper features woof man woof and the beards are big they're big it's nice cool textures full fluffy nice looking beards man nice looking beards there you go now I'll take a bigger one quickly and I'll show you you can have it grain the beard Grays too and yeah I mean I think that's pretty cool it grows at a slightly slower rate on on some of the bigger ones and on different ones it it Grays slightly faster it sort of depends on the beard I suppose but at the end it will graze kind of nice you can see the gray does come from the top down cool there we go lots of good choices here once again this is your hair color though so if you pick something different here you are picking your hair color and your beard color horns let's have a look decent choices here they all have their own names Rune curves belt for spikes gold crafted this is like it's got nice you know they I should I should probably change the hair just quickly so you can sort of see um they have sort of varying degrees of detail on the roots of the horns I don't know if it's called Roots but uh yeah you can sort of see some of them look a little different down here than others when you get to like the later ones they have like more splotches and stuff around they're sort of connected to the Head differently but they are cool all the way through you get to change the color of the horns and you get to change the horn tip color as well I do this differently almost every time I did a differently in the previous one but like the horn tip color there's a bunch of choices and you'll see it's just the tip of the horn it's pretty self-explanatory the tip of the horn changes and then the horn color itself let's pick these ones as a good example these are preset the same on all the tieflings so you have a bunch of different choices at the end there's a black and white and that will be it there we go so so many different one colors like like for real it's kind of crazy it's it's really kind of crazy honestly I man I I think that there's there's room here for a lot of cool customization and I think that people will come up with like some seriously insanely sick looking characters but like at the end of the day most people are gonna pick white or black here most likely most likely you know it's just it's a simpler choice you know I don't know maybe it's just me that thinks that but it's what I expect so now we're gonna randomize a little bit and we're gonna have a look what's available this is already just looking really good I'm going to zoom in a bit because it's much nicer looking up close dude there's some fantastic characters uh this has got to be like the best randomization system I think in any game because they really just go crazy with everything they don't hold back with the options because like oftentimes they do hold back you know character creators hold back and it's like if you look at this they are changing basically everything on it uh you you don't really look at that you don't see them holding back you don't see like oh well you know they're not really doing the Beards very well or like uh you know we're not seeing heterochromia all the time or oh the Vitiligo is just not showing no it's all there man it's all there every single option is being changed it's being modified it's all there I love it oh there you go and now what we're gonna do before we continue is we are just going to jump into the other two so we're on the first one now I'm trying to remember if it was I think it was called asmodeus we're gonna jump onto the other two and we're gonna have a look that's fantastic by the way oh my God see this is what I was talking about like a neon tiefling you can do stuff like this you can do stuff but we're gonna jump onto the other ones and I'll just show you what the default choices are there thank you so on the skin tones you will notice that the first two lines are Azure and storm and and basically the Bluer cooler tones until about there and then it's all the the normal ones these are the suggested colors but basically all of these for tieflings these ones specifically for the the one that we're on right now and then you can still go for all of them if you'd like and and with the other stuff it's all the same the here's the same the eyes are the same the body Art's the same the horns are the same you can look here the horn colors are exactly the same they just sort of try and curate your experience a little bit in other words they give you sort of a a oh my God it looks like um who does it look like not mads Mickelson oh Oppenheimer yeah it looks like Killian Murphy Oh my God that is a tiefling okay maybe no oh I don't know I I don't know I don't know I don't want to look at this guy anymore so yeah they give you like some curation to basically help nudge you into the law correct direction but you can do anything you want don't feel bad about doing what you want with these the faces are the same on all of them as I've mentioned all the other options are the same they just give you a list of skin colors here a few skin colors that they recommend for it they're just like hey these ones make sense so consider them okay there you go that's basically what you're working with this is fantastic by the way every time I see that I'm gonna love it awesome that's basically what you're working with there and that is basically the end for tieflings now we're going to move on to drow so for drow it's going to be a little quicker than the others because the customization part at least is the same as elf obviously the defaults are different so we're going to go through that still but if you want to see like full and and like intense customization go for the wood and high elf customization you'll see everything there so driven to the underdog most drow have adopted a ruthless pragmatism while the Loth sworn Delight in the goddesses evil tenets the Sal dranin I'm sorry I'm dyslexic it's his cell Doreen reject her attempt to overthrow the leader of the Elven Pantheon fantastic they move nine per turn default they have weapon training so they have proficiency with the rapist Rapier short sword uh and hand crossbow Superior dark vision they can see double as far in the dark double as far as I'm saying the tieflings or the other elves I think do the elves have I don't know and then they have Fair ancestry advantage on saving throws against being Charmed magic can't put you to sleep fantastic now that's not it because there's still the sub races as you mentioned as I as I saw as they mentioned the Loth sworn and the selderine raised by loth's Cult in the city of menzo baranzan these drow embody the virtues of their corrupt merciless goddess Loth marks her followers with bright red eyes so those in the underdog will learn to fear them on site eyes aren't all that bright but but um you know it's the thought that counts it's the thought that counts celdarine they could be found seeking allies from all over faerun naming to settle their conflict with love and each other by any means necessary these are the goodies I don't know if lore wise if you pick one above the other you'll have an easier time I don't know if the people will like you more if you pick celdarine instead of Loth I have no idea I think they're going to dislike trowel the same okay so we're going to jump in the customization on these two is exactly the same there's no difference uh you know these ones they by default put a red eye on there and these ones they don't but they are exactly the same so do not worry about that as we jump in here I will just tell you that the um customization options that you have available here are the same as on the elves the faces are even the same as on the other elves so we're gonna go pretty quickly through here now I'm leaving it on Barbarian once again because it allows you to see the muscles you get to pick three different four different body types you get the small female the small male pretty muscular for small then you get the large one for female and the large one for male pretty muscly as well it's good it's good it's very nice customization options are all them are the same you just get a bigger body on the one so yeah it's cool it's cool now identity you get to pick male female or non-binary and other this will basically just give you a different way to be addressed in the game right voices we're going to go through all of them again I've gone through these like every time so far but it's quick so I don't mind doing it things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here You Weary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed can feel its aura there you go male and female voices all sort of mashed together I'm not going to say it's all the same you can sort of pick what you want it's definitely not all the same but you can pick what you want and yeah you should find yourself pleased with whatever so on the female side of things faces let's have a peek there are some pretty fantastic faces here as we have seen by the way on the um wood elves and High Elves these are the same I feel like they sort of give it away with the colors here I don't know I don't know it's like they could have been a little bit more mystery involved if they didn't have the colors they say like you you would have maybe mistaken them for something else but um yeah we'll go with the default one for now uh skin tones these are the default brow skin tones very cool by the way all the way until about there you'll see and then when we get to the bottom ones it'll be the Elvish ones very cool skin tones now you can't pick these on the other elves if you'd like to once you click on all skin colors you will see and I will show you that once I get past this point here these are all the draw Ones Still when we get here you will notice immediately you start looking like a high elf right so it's the same stuff and when I click on all it all gets mixed in thrown in together and uh yeah you've got choices you can be a purple drawer you can be a pink draw a green brow you can do whatever the hell you want these are just the curated choices that they think would make sense so yeah if you want to do that you do that now now scars let me actually just change the hair quickly even though I love this hair it is making it a little difficult for me to see these cars so yeah here we go foreign and yeah I'm the guy that calls cars cool I think scars are cool especially if they tell a story and you know if you're playing a game like Baldur's Gate it can tell a story you can make it tell a story even if it doesn't by default maturity this is going to be the age of your character it's pretty cool it's as impactful as it is on the other elf customization then you can do freckles you can do the quantity they sort of pop in dynamically and then you can do the opacity here it's cool and then vitiligo that's on all the characters [Music] all the Races they get to use this no worries then body art this is tattoos there's no tattoos for the entire body it is basically just on the face a lot of decent options here though regardless and yeah I mean you'll find something that works for you I think still wonder it's like for me it's always a tough choice I don't know if you guys are the same but like it's like sometimes there's this really cool look that you can make by using tattoos but man will it withstand the taste of time are you 50 hours into your gameplay gonna be sick of it are you gonna wish that you never picked it that's always like for me I think that and then I think okay yeah let me just go for a pure look let me just go for a basic look with no tattoos on the face and then I settle with that and I I end up being boring you know uh colors you can pick the opacity here and then you can pick the color and obviously this combined with the skin tone it gives you a different effect it gives you a different feel you sort of mix and match to make the dream character for yourself lots of nice colors here though [Music] that's cool every time I get to the white I'm like yeah man that's what I want to use but am I going to use it no probably not I'm probably gonna chicken out and not go for any tattoos so piercings these are a little bugged at the moment where I feel like the colors are missing on them they're just sort of black instead of colored there are some that are like you know these are called Midnight tears yeah they could be black but then there are ones that are like silver gold or um there's a red one red centilla that should be red right it's not it's not it's fine though again you can sort of get a good enough look at what they look like and it's it's all right it's all right okay Minotaur ring easy breezy Arch Fair swirls the commoner ring board rings and back at none eyes so these are the ones that it's actually fascinating to me how few colors they suggest for the uh for the last one draw but basically they actually paid a lot of attention here they sort of they were strict with this uh you'll you'll notice that obviously the the pinks and the purples are here you know your traditional draw colors along with the Reds and then you can click on all eye colors and you can go ham you can go crazy I'm not going to click on every one of these but I will show you that you can pick the Demonic colors on your drawer if you'd like because you can tell a story you can be possessed by a demon you can be a drow that's possessed by a demon even though you are sort of you know resistant to charm it could be a powerful demon you can do whatever you want with these and then on top of that you can pick a color here and then you can do a heterochromia and pick a different color there it's cool pretty cool makeup we're going to sort of not so much rush through this but we'll go pretty quickly through here once again just because I've covered all of this on the other elf customizations and I'm going to be real they do look pretty much the same on all of them there you go there you go the colors I'm going to pick one of the bigger ones for it you get to do the intensity then you get to do a metallic and glossy and uh yeah the the metallic and glossy altogether end up making these look really fantastic they look great and I think that for the most part you will find something really fantastic to to create here if you if you pick these different colors here you match them with the the different hair colors skin colors the body art and stuff like that dude you can make something really cool looking however I'm going to show you what it looks like with just the gloss on because when you put metallic on it changes the color a little bit so we'll go through these a little bit and I'll show you what they look like and you'll just have to use your imagination for the rest and yes it's me repeating myself a bunch because I've done this like four times already now but it's still really nice I don't get sick of looking at them because this face is different and it's staring right into my soul right now that's cool very cool there you go turn it off turn it off lips there's the lip color make them glossy I don't know what uh brows feel about lipstick but uh yeah I mean that's pretty cool it does look pretty good it does definitely look pretty good as with the other ones I'm going to show you what it looks like now uh is that what color is that gray I'll show you what it looks like now when you throw the metallic on there when you throw the metallic on there it just changes everything it's it's pretty fantastic actually again it's like a really cool effect let's take purple Metallica it's like it's really deep the color it's nice okay let's turn it off for now though there we go and that's makeup done here so they're here it's the same on all of them but we're still going to have a look at it they obviously suggest you use white hair you know you use white on brow yeah man that makes sense so what I'm going to do is I'm going to put highlights in I'll make them purple and then we'll go through the hair like this all right so this is basically just to show you where the Highlight zones are and if you have a look at them you can sort of plan and plot your course you can decide what you'd like to do when you make your own character let me just make sure it's right here you can decide what you want to do because you can see where the highlights are and it'll help you out any which way you want it to this music in the background is also pretty fantastic wow for real though being able to look at all of these like this is the reason I do it this is the reason I go through everything multiple times is because you get to look at it on the different faces like on the draw phase for instance everything just ends up looking different you know I do I do see that facial hair option Lumen as the next one up I'm pretty Keen oh that's really cool wow [Music] that's a really cool style as well [Music] and yeah if I if I do miss anything if I skip past one of the styles that you like too quickly let me just say that if it wasn't shown here in great detail you can just look at basically any of the other races I suggest the elves at the start of the video and you will see a full sort of more in-depth look at it just because again they all share the same hair and a lot of the other options also shade and you'll be able to find like as an example on this one you might not have known there's a little ponytail back there and you might find what you're looking for there it's just that if I if I go through every option and talk about it in great detail I'll be here for eight hours I'm already probably gonna be here for eight hours but you know there's a chance that it'll be as bad as that and I'd like to avoid that if possible even though it is fun even though I do enjoy looking at all these options uh there there is you know some sense in brevity fantastic that long ponytail is really cool now as I was showing you as we're going through here the highlights they are I somehow managed to end up on the one that they gave us the default one they are pretty cool you can set the intensity of it you can choose the color there are a bunch of different highlight colors that you can choose they suggest a few of them obviously above others but the colors are magnificent they're great and then as I just show you a few of these I will jump back you can see all the colors this bunch there's a huge selection I'll jump back to the regular hair colors and I'll show you what they look like as you select these you will immediately make your drawers dot it'll start looking like you know a regular elf because again these are not the regular dry hair colors but it's still cool that you have the option to pick them I think it's pretty nice you know oh that's a nice Brown come on come on Lumen don't be don't be tempted it's just brown man I actually think that even though you see such a nice Brown when you get to the oranges a little lower down yeah I mean yeah like that's where you stay in right you'll see now when I get to the orange here oh look at that that's where you live in [Music] here we go very cool a lot of nice colors here and to be honest yeah I mean I feel like you'll find something that you like there you go I'll put it back on white for now actually it's kind of pointless I'm not really going to bother too much with this but like you can do grain it's kind of weird having a drought gray but the way grain works is you get to select it like this and you get to drag the slide up and you get to pick any color you can have your brow ridden and that actually makes more sense it's like you take a basically you do this and you take the white here and then you then you have the red creeping into the white and then it can be like blood in your hair you know that's that's the explanation right I don't know I don't know um that's the option that you have though and it's kind of cool next up is facial hair oh wow there it is I thought so because I thought I saw on the others they didn't even have the option there so it would have been weird if drow had it good good it was a little ominous sitting at the bottom there no facial hair on the ladies now we're gonna randomize let's have a look at what's available the randomize obviously unlocks the the complete selection here um like this there's a bunch here and if I select this and then I randomize then it picks from the entire pool you'll see it'll go down here from time to time it's not regular but it will go down there from time to time and you can sort of sort of in that way sort of change the way it picks the randomization a little bit look at this fantastic but as you can see here these random characters are much the same as the ones that you would get from the normal elves obviously there might be some more cool colors you know you'd have the dry skin colors and and stuff pop up more often because they are more prominent in the selection but for the most part this will look much the same as the other elves and yeah you should notice that if you're paying attention you're definitely this is really cool wow you definitely notice that there we go I'm gonna go back now and just show you quickly that the selderine brow are exactly the same your skin tones might change very very slightly and then your eyes will probably be a little different but for the most part now it seems even this actually seems the same for the most part you're gonna have the same stuff it's the same on on all the sub Races they usually have the same options as the primary race it's just sort of split up a little bit so to to give you the options that are low friendly now we are going to jump into mail let's do it first up I did show you the regular Man versus the bulky man it's all the same we can customize the bulky one if you like they look the same the faces and stuff are the same if you look at them here it's not that the one is bigger or broader or anything like that it is actually just the same so there you go faces these will also look familiar if you watch the wood elf or high elf customization they will look familiar up here you can pick your identity non-binary or other male or female and then the voices let's give them a listen quickly where to next what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly [Music] Pals something just woke up down here all right I'm gonna just change the hair quickly uh to one that is slightly less so it doesn't cover stuff and then we're gonna jump in here quickly skin tones these are the drow and the drow and then elf skin tones all together you'll notice that the first few are sort of more law friendly and then as you go down it will give you the hi Elfin wood elf ones as well and then when you click on all then it will give you all of them and they really are quite a lot and it works the same on the others it's like if you make a high Elf or wood elf then what will happen is you'll get to a certain point where it will flip over and then you'll be having a look at the draw ones so we're not going to focus too much on these because these are different but you can use all and then you can make your character any color you like and that's fantastic more flexibility for the player is always cool for this video however we will go with the drow-ish skin tone let's go with something like that confirm Skies they look pretty good on the ground I feel they look nice and dark nice detail they sort of get lost on certain races obviously like if the race has a busy skin and there's too much going on then they might get lost on there maturity this is just the age of your character more wrinkles stuff like that freckles here you go you can set the quantity which is kind of nice how it sort of splotches them on there and then you can set the intensity which is just the opacity and then vitiligo kind of cool it's the lack of pigmentation in the skin right I think that's exactly what the explanation is then we can move on body art the tattoos we're going to go through these pretty quick because we've looked at them a bunch of times already you might not have so we're going to definitely look at each of them but yeah let's do it I think it's a pretty decent tattoo system like oftentimes the the things that I would look at in these systems is how clear the tattoo is and then how how relevant it feels to like certain classes and races and stuff like that and I think that they've got their they've got their bases covered with these I mean the clarity is differently there the relevance I mean that's pretty much on you right there are a lot of different ones here that could mean different things and I do believe that you could probably find something that would suit basically any class or any race you know colors you can set the intensity colors here are decent there's a nice selection and they're very bright they show well the color that you see here is the color that you get there there you go I like the whites I have to say it I have to every time I get here I have to say yeah man I like the whites they did good with those piercings the piercing seemed to be a little bugged you can see that we are seeing like a black version of them it just means that like either the texture or the color is a little missing on them it's probably going to be fixed soon enough you can still get a good enough idea of what they look like and you can probably still pick one that suits your character quite nicely especially if you take the name combined with the look that will give you what you're looking for I think yeah but there's a decent selection here for real there's a lot of cool piercings and uh I'm sure you'll be cool with uh whatever you know whatever there you go okay I've been through them a few times now already [Laughter] whoops right eyes so first up you can do heterochromia if you'd like you can do one eye one color the other another color these are the drow specific choices available to you these are the ones that would be lore friendly it makes sense yeah I've read a bunch of draw books man I read the whole Bristol Urban series it was like 150 books and they've done their research delirium guys yeah they probably also read the urban books which is good which is to say that's good I hope trist makes a cameo in the game I mean I don't know if it's even possible but you never know anyway he'll probably be mentioned in there at least you can also pick any other color there are demonic eyes here they are regular eyes there are all sorts of eyes they are just pure black ones you can do what you want and then you can also heterochromia whatever you want so that's cool makeup they are makeup choices and they are good I'm going through them very briefly here it looks a little like you know the intensity up it's it's a bit difficult to see them on the darker skin tones but if you put a lighter color on there obviously then you will have a good look at them so as an example if we pick something like the blue here it shines through so nicely you can do a tint on it you can see here and then you can do glossy that's the metallic plus the glossy it makes it just fantastic it is it is probably and you know like I end up oftentimes picking small things in character creation systems that are my favorites and I will say straight up that this is one of my favorite things about this character creation system I know it sounds like really small and it's like what the hell man like you're choosing to say that a metallic and a glossy tinsel yeah it's my favorite I'm choosing to say that it's not my like all time I think the hair is probably my favorite maybe it's the sheer variety but anyway what I'm saying is that you can do some really cool stuff with it you can modify the colors to make them look really cool and at the end of the day the effect that you get the impact that it has on your character's overall style is just so significant that how could it not be your favorite you know it's it's fantastic there's just so much you can do with it and it's just straight disco so like why why would you not like it you know why would you not that's just that's just wow I mean we like approaching Ziggy's Stardust levels of cool yeah it's it's awesome okay that's awesome so there you go lots of nice options there then you also get to do your lips the lips have a opacity slider then they got the metallic and the glossy you can make them look all shiny and stuff I take the metallic off I'll take the glossy off too just so you can see the colors properly there are lots of colors here these are the same for every one of the races I realize I could have Consolidated them all but I you know I like to be inefficient that's what I do and I like to be very exhaustively thorough so we're going through it and you can see each of these you can also combine with the metallic and the glossy to get an entirely different look and feel the lighter colors I feel work better the yellows and stuff end up turning into Golds for the most part um but yeah it's kind of cool there's a lot to that's there's a lot that's going on here basically it's nice that's good okay let's take the lips color off here my favorite part so hair colors for brow generally white is the accepted color and we're going to put a black highlight in we'll push the intensity up let's actually let's do something a little different let's make it a Ruby there you go the reason I'm doing this is so you can see the highlights I'm going to go through here I'll turn the hair a little bit if you do feel like you're missing something and I skip one of the styles that you like well then do I have a deal for you you can just go look at any of the other race customization and you will find it you will find it there because all the hairstyles are shared across them and I'm a Madman for showing you all of them separately and again these long hairstyles are fantastic I love it I'm a masochist what can I say I do enjoy going through these options multiple times do not doubt it that's a really cool short style you know I don't think I'd I've said that before it's like oftentimes and most times in these character creators I end up cursing the devs for not adding enough short styles there's just not enough but in this one yeah you got the short straight Styles you got the short curly styles you got the slick back Styles you got the cowlicks you got the golden Styles yeah even the balding styles I gotta say I mean we have a very specific look going on here uh we're looking like a Christmas lollipop a candy cane or something it's not all that fetching or handsome but I'm just trying to give you an example of what's available so chill okay chill chill I'm not gonna start a character looking like a candy cane it's not gonna be what I'm doing do not worry there we go here now with the hair I will just leave it on this one while I show you you can do varying different things there are different colors so I'm going to take the highlights off quickly and I'll just show you that's the full list of hair colors right there you can change them and then immediately your character starts looking more natural less drow that's obviously on purpose you are encouraged to pick the law friendly choices the drows would have the pale colors in their hair sometimes the darker sometimes the lighter but you know you're not gonna for the most part see a draw walking around with orange hair I mean that's true until you have like Joel Axel or something but isn't he bald I was gonna say with some Enchanted Wing or something like that that dude's crazy he always has something weird going on so it wouldn't surprise me if he had pink hair purple hair but still but still you know the drows they have a specific look to them and you can probably make something really cool with this there you go but the colors are fantastic and this is just one of the coolest Hair Systems I've ever seen so let's take white again the highlights they work as I showed you basically each one of them has a different Highlight Zone and then there are a bunch of different colors here I'm not going to go through all of them but you can look at them and you'll see what I mean and you can just use your imagination with that then you can also choose to have your hair gray for white hair it's kind of pointless but you can choose the color on that you can have it change to different colors as well so if we take black for instance you can have it sort of blend in a little bit it is more intense or less intense on certain Styles you will see as an example on this one the grain is much more intense and yeah you can make it gray if you want as well like properly gray gray and generally you'd want to do that with like a darker color and then a lighter color coming in you know but you get the idea right you get the idea facial hair well there is none let's randomize fantastic zoom in immediately you see all the different styles coming together all the different looks forming hideous amalgamations before you no but sometimes you get really cool characters here unique characters here other times you get stuck in a loop of well despair for real there are some really cool characters and then there are some that are just questionable and you wonder how they even exist but yeah that's basically it I'm going to just very briefly go back here and show you the fact that these guys they have the same options we were just on the lost one these dudes have the same options here their skin tones are the same their eyes are the same it's all the same so do not worry don't think you got screwed out of everything next up we have the humans hey who'da thought we are making our way through all the races uh here they are they are looking very human now as I mentioned on the other ones a lot of stuff will be shared here you'll see a lot of the same options but yeah they will look a little different because their faces are different and so on and so forth we're going to start with the females here humans the most common face in faerun humans are known for their tenacity creativity and endless capacity for growth base speed 9. civil militia you have weapon proficiency with Spears Pikes Alberts and glaves and armor proficiency with light armor and shields human versatility select an additional skill to be proficient in your carrying capacity is increased by a quarter you'll see when that that comes up a little bit later when you actually pick in your class and stuff like that it comes up a bit later you'll see so there are no sub races for human human is just human let's look at the body shapes that's the normal female one that's the normal male one here we have the larger female and here we have the larger male pretty cool these guys are big that's nice we're gonna start with the smaller females and we will take it from there dude the faces well the detail on the faces immediately you'll be greeted with a whole lot more on humans they did try to be more inclusive with ethnicity and stuff like that these are serving suggestions basically but yeah let's have a look from the start here identity you can be female non-binary or other or male that's just how people greet you or address you in the world and then let's look at the voices quickly be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened and more of those there's not where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly house something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped right faces so decent selection of faces here you will see that some of them are similar to the faces on say the elves or the drows but they are not they are not the same exactly they are just similar they have really nice faces they have a good selection again they try cover all the ethnicities and you can sort of see what they are by looking at the skin colors that they give you here we're gonna go the default one for now it sort of looks like that lady from Westworld actually right yeah skin tones these are the ones that they suggest these are just suggestions I'm gonna quickly change the hair so that we have a shorter style so that we can see maybe just more of the um the head because we're going to be looking at some stuff there skin tones here we go these will be human skin tones it's a good it's a good selection like they have a lot of good ones here you will see that they don't have like the icy tones they don't have the fiery tones they have human looking tones and I I personally think that's a really cool suggestion however you know you can sort of do what you want you can make your human look like a drower you can pick any old color here you can pick pink you can pick red you can pick Green I don't even know where this color would be used but it's here and it's a choice that you can make so just know that you don't have to go with the curated colors you can if you want to it's whatever scars I'm keeping the light one on so we can look at the scars there we go there they are pretty cool pretty cool pretty cool that's fantastic and that's a burn victim all right maturity I felt like personally the maturity made the biggest difference on the human faces it might just be me but in my brief look at the different races when I started this video or at least before I started I thought that these options were the most impactful on the human faces all of it the freckles the um the maturity and the Vitiligo looked the nicest on human I I thought so but hey there you go you can do freckles opacity basically and then the amount or you can do none you will see that there are some beauty spots and some freckles and stuff that are tied to the different faces so if you change the face you will get a different look and that's cool yeah that's cool the Vitiligo you don't get to change the color it's the lack of pigmentation so you change the skin tone to a darker one and then you throw that on there and then it looks you know like that so you do what you want to do you can find something cool and you'll probably will make a nice combo with this body art these are the tattoos there are some good choices here and there are mostly bad choices here this is this is the tab of regret that's what I like to call it it's the tab of second guesses it's the tab of mistakes Untold it's the tab that you should probably lift be leave alone you should probably just sort of look at it and be like oh yeah tattoos okay let's move on I I just say that because even though there are some really cool ones here I personally always have regrets when I pick a tattoo that's why I generally tend to go with like a a clean look this time around I'm trying to sort of mess around with different choices different options different styles I'm trying to think you know let's be let's be crazy let's step out of the comfort zone a little bit is it going to happen we'll see we'll see tattoo colors you get to set the opacity and then there's a bunch of different colors here pretty cool really cool actually [Music] they obviously look better on different skin tones you know the lighter ones on a darker skin tone and so on and so forth these ones look like nice blood red colors very cool very natural looking if that's ever natural but yeah these are nice colors and that's all of them if we jump back down here you can do piercings the piercings I mentioned this like every time they seem to be bugged you can see sort of a flash if you if you look there's like a flash of what they're supposed to look like and then they get covered in Black uh I don't know why I don't know why they're covered in black but you can get an idea of what they are and that's about it for now uh this is fine these are called Crimson Hilt daggers so obviously they have red hilts each of these has sort of a color or something attached to them that's not right there right now I don't know if you can change this after you get into the game but for now it's a little broken it's whatever okay let's jump onto the next one eyes these are the eye suggestions for human they basically give you ones that are more realistic you know and it's not completely realistic in a way because like pink eyes are sort of kind of underheard of if you're thinking of realistic but you know it's a magical world with magical beings of All Sorts all shapes and sizes I've seen some pink eyes on someone that's not the weirdest thing okay then you can pick all and you can pick the Demonic ones the solid black ones all sorts of different ones let me just tell you the Demonic ones are are really fantastic they are really nice they are really cool eyes here that you can have I will tell you from my quick look at like the tieflings and stuff like that there does seem to be an extra layer of detail on tiefling eyes that you don't have on the other races but like it's more like this is this little swirl of of fire that's in their eyes but for the most part you can still pick almost anything you want here and it's yeah it's cool it's cool then there's heterochromia you can pick one color in the one and one in the other and that's cool yeah makeup we seem to really have makeup on that's cool okay I didn't even realize it was kind of subtle all right here we go some cool Styles some slightly more subtle ones some slightly heavier ones you can do some cool stuff with these with gloss and tint on the metallic side of things I mean really cool stuff this is like I love it I love it I can't get enough of it every time I look at it I think wow I'm gonna take the metallic off for this and then I'm just gonna go through the colors quickly so you can look at them and uh yeah you can make up your mind with that just remember that if you take any one of these colors and you add the metallic tint to it it becomes way cooler still have it loses the color that it actually is so it's better to show the colors like this just know that you can enhance the cool factor a little bit by pulling that slide up yeah it's nice there we go lots and lots and lots of colors I do wish that there was a little bit more in terms of makeup but I mean the face paint sort of makes up for it right I don't know the face paint's kind of cool lips there's more than just red here even though the red is really cool and you can add once again the metallic tint and the glossy tint to it there is more there are lots of colors these are not so much curated all the classes have all the races have the same ones uh you are going to see the same ones over all of them regardless of the race that you pick obviously I mean the humanoid ones like you're not going to put lipstick on the dragons okay we'll get to that we'll get to that but you're not going to put lipstick on the dragons uh it's cool yeah I I really like when you throw that on there it changes it up completely but obviously it gives you a different color and Vibe entirely so it might not be what you're looking for there you go lips off for now and then here let's just be different with here this time I've been doing black uh let's try blonde with [Music] highlights let's do a yellow or orange or something a red maybe I don't know there you go I've been doing red a lot let's do purple yeah that's a very human Choice I've seen so many old ladies no offense I love the old ladies that do this they live in their best lives but with with like gray hair and then they're cool purple highlights I love it dude I think it's really really cool I'm going to show you the hairstyles like this I know it looks tacky but it gives you a good look at what you can highlight and it's it's a good way to see it you know so you can basically look at these and decide which hair color is best for you and take it from there some of them have way more highlights on some of them have way less and that's just up to you to sort of pick and choose which one you think is the bomb and which one you think is not man I've made a real specific looking look here I don't know what this is she reminds me of someone and now with the one eye being a different color it makes it even more intense you get to choose the amount of uh highlight obviously you'll see that at the end I'll show it to you but you can make it less you can make it more and then you can obviously at the bottom here you can see as well you can do some graying the grain is cool I think the grain is really nice especially when you add it to the facial hair as well which you will be seeing on humans that can have facial hair of course because why wouldn't they but yeah it's nice it's nice that's one of my favorite styles actually these two both of them are really cool man I I'm gonna I'm gonna struggle to pick a character here like if I had to go human for instance there's just so many cool things that you can do with human like I feel and it's not like I'm on a bound to make a drought that looks like a drought you know you can do what you want but I feel like I should if I make a draw I should have the darker skin I should have the lighter here I should have the eyes that sort of look right but with human you don't have that limitation you know you don't feel like you have to do anything you can do whatever the hell you want and it makes sense you're a human you're crazy man everyone knows the humans are crazy anyway let's look quickly so in terms of the highlights let's just pick this one quickly and I'll show you you can change the intensity and then you can pick a color but the hair colors we'll look at those first they are really nice hair colors these are the same across all of them they are fantastic they are boom boom boom boom the Browns look nice the darker colors like the blacks look nice the Reds specifically are awesome the oranges and the the gingers are just like wow it's all just really really nice these colors they are so cool even the Grays look nice uh this this game definitely has the best hair like I will say that and I mean that like in in its entirety uh it's it's right up there and I like I mentioned before I like I really like Hogwarts legacies hair texture the way it looks and feels right but this the entire package is bigger better it's it's more you know there's just so much more going on here so like yeah man geez give me this any day of the week like the visual Fidelity is there in Hogwarts but like everything else is here even though the visual plate is also here it's just like everything else is here there's much more variety there's much more of everything the highlights there are a bunch of different highlight colors I'm not going to go through all of them they're basically the same but there's way more and they have more let's just say of the primary ones so like you here you have just purple a few bright purples but if you go into the regular hair colors you'll see a lot more shades of it so like here you have like one really strong green but you don't have all the previous Shades that will come before it and so on and so forth it's also a little muddled out a little bit you'll see that there are different colors spread out a lot um but yeah same basic colors same basic idea you can sort of do what you want you can make the shade brighter or darker and then you can do grain I'll show you that on a black color quickly the grain looks really nice I feel you can make it gray entirely or you can make it gray just a little bit and I think it shows quite nicely you can also make it blue you can make it Pink you can make it do whatever you want I'm going to leave it on grain for now though because on the facial hair that's a good way to show it off speaking of which let's look at the facial here yeah you can put beards on the ladies and they can grade too the beard color is tied with the hair color it's all together you don't get take one separately from the other I do feel like maybe in the the beta you could split them in the beta The Early Access you could split the colors but you cannot now and these are some pretty magnificent beards they're great it doesn't matter my suggestion was that they maybe add some stubble to this but if I pick the big one over here or let's take this one for now I can show you quickly this changes everything this changes the whole hair color so for now I'm going to leave it on let's say the orange and then I'll show you what it looks like the grain intensity more or less and there you go that's our lady character now we're going to randomize here at the end oh fantastic you see it's a different look and feel to the elves entirely like you think that the characters are the same they're not they don't look the same oh my God what is that quickly keep going don't let it catch us by the way you can go back uh they they they save your options so I can't actually go I can't actually go back and it saves it for you I think it's it's really cool the system this is sick wow dude so much here there is just so much here I love it humans man humans here you are humans now we're gonna go back and we're going to have a look at the men I didn't actually have to go back I could have stayed in that menu I just wanted to come here for formalities sake let's do it okay let's jump in just keep in mind once again this whole get up that my character has here it's on Barbarian right now it can change uh here's the normal boy here's the big boy nice hairy chest and all that uh let's jump in let's edit the appearance first up identity you can set it to whatever you like male female or non-binary on other that's just how people address you let's listen to the voices quickly it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next and there we are back at the start the faces here my God they are all so perfect these are all the most handsome gentlemen in the world in one place it's kind of crazy to me actually like man here you go okay uh I mean which one are we gonna take let's take this one here skin tone they give you the suggested human skin tones and you can sort of mess around here pick what you want you can see on these that they suggest that this is a darker skin tone they'll suggest that this is sort of in the middle they'll suggest that that's lighter they'll suggest that that's lighter as an example look that's what they want it to look like obviously the hair would change but you get the idea and all the skin tones here these are the humanoid ones not humanoid human ones sorry there's a difference and these are the ones that they say will look good on this race however if you are like nah larian you don't know what the hell are you talking about nah then you just click on this button and and off you go into the unexplored you pick whatever you want you make yourself a blue man a green man a pink man a purple man you can do anything like really anything there are white mini skin colors like who even thought this was a good idea larion who even thought that let's take this one for now faces are good though I like the faces there's some good detail on them and there's some good differences between them now scars let's have a peek pretty nice it's the same ones obviously on all the races I mentioned this almost every time I do think that could have had a little bit more there but it's still fine maturity uh I think that on the humans it makes a big impact on some of the other races not so much like the elves I don't know they don't look as old when you make them old even though they are old they don't look as old freckles the quantity is quite nice how it sort of dynamically adds them and then the intensity is the opacity you can sort of do whatever with that and then vitiligo looks better with a darker skin but it's there and you can pick how much you want of it also good implementation of that I feel pretty cool body art this is the tattoo section there are some questionable decisions to be made here so I'll leave it to you pick the one you like regret it later this is the way this is the way there we go a bunch and I mean like really a bunch you have any old choice to make here fantastic you do get to change the color we're going to look at that in just a moment and you do most definitely get to change the opacity as well there you go the color choices are varied and great I say great because they are good they look nice on the skin tone that you pick no matter what and they have basically the entire RGB covered basically not entirely but like it's enough I feel there you go then there are piercings these are a little broken as I switch through them you will see that they have black like the shading is a little bit broken on them I'm not sure how to fix that right now I tried before I started but I couldn't get it fixed just know that when you're in the game they will look right and and yeah there are some decent choices here for piercings it's the same once again on all of them but just know that some of them have color like these lapis ones actually have a little blue section in the middle there and so on and so fourth right eyes these are the human type eye colors and once again I'm going to gush over how good the eye system is in this game the eye system only me only I could say something like that and have it sort of make sense right the eyes look good you can sort of pick a color here and you can like zoom out all the way and you can see the color even when you zoomed all the way out it's very impressive actually you get to do all eye colors then so you get to pick the more demonic looking ones like these ones down here you get to pick the all black ones you get to pick basically any color you want from all the other races uh and it's cool yeah it's cool it's nice then you get to do heterochromia with this so if you'd like to you can pick a blue over there and you can pick a green over there and you can be like yeah that's me it's cool it's cool makeup this is the more subtle stuff you know it's not the body art this is more subtle in that you can actually make it look more natural or you can make it look Gordy and garish that's fine too you know that's your right there are different options here you'll see the colors I'm going to show you these quickly before I jump into the different options then you can set the glass level and you can set the metallic tint and what that will do for you is change it almost entirely into a different monstrosity altogether let's take this one and I'll show you quickly metallic and then you add the gloss to it and it's wow it's it's actually fantastic I mean I'm I'm saying a monstrosity but like you only really make a hideous amalgamation if you choose to okay you can also choose to make something beautiful and these are the options that you'll use to make something beautiful trust me or or you'll just ignore this menu altogether because to be real it's probably not necessary to use this one but yeah I mean it's here it's here and uh it's cool it's okay why not here we go off lips lips also a glossy option also a metallic option and I will take the both of them off so I can show you the colors quickly and these you know they sort of they're good all round it's like they give you enough options here once again this is not like a a situation where there is show all colors this is all the colors and they have these same ones on all the races and that's probably good enough you know it's probably good enough there it is if you put these uh gloss and tint levels on it looks just more wow that's up to you though you can sort of decide to do it or not to do it right here so we're on a mail now it's a little different than on the female just because the look and feel is not the same let's go with for this guy let's go with orange and let's go with white and we'll pull the intensity up pretty cool okay I did this because you can see the Highlight zones now of there you can see where you highlight them so you can sort of change the colors as you see fit I do a different color randomly on every uh rice just because why not some of the hairstyles suit these guys well some do not you got to pick and choose I'm sure you'll find something that you like because they are a huge number of hairstyles and for once hell yes there are a bunch of good short styles and hell yes the long Styles look nice too I bet that you guys are going to make some like pretty damn awesome looking characters I bet a bit I mean I'm gonna make a few for my thumbnail and I'm like I'm gonna try my best to make cool looking characters and interesting looking characters but that's all I have to say about it I saw because like damn you know every time I look online and I see some of the characters other people made I'm like wow why didn't I think of that well because you're comparing yourself to the entirety of the internet Lumen of course you didn't think of that there's so many other people out there [Laughter] crazy but there are some really cool Styles here for real I think that the model designers the people who did the character models and stuff they deserve arrays multiple raises I hope that larion realizes that sooner rather than later because we want more let's pick this one for now I look like an ice cream or something you know it's cool hair colors we're gonna zoom in quickly I'll take the highlights off for now and I'll just show you oh it looks so cool man I'm making calcistus of Star Wars Fame I bet I can actually and this guy just looks like a grown-up version of calcasus the hair colors here are pretty nice there's no grounded in reality when it comes to human humans are crazy and they are known to do crazy things like have hair colors that are just out there and radical so you will see all the hair colors here but it's actually the same for all of them I I say that as like an excuse but all of the races have all of the hair colors that you can pick between here and they look awesome they look great and then when you've chosen a style let's take the strawberry as Rose actually then you can also do a highlight the highlights you can choose the intensity of it here and you can choose the color I'm going to go through all the highlight colors but you get the idea there's a lot of cool stuff that you can do with it I I bit me not so much and then you can have gray in here the grain is basically just another layer of highlight but it acts naturally like grain would act but the flip side or the interesting part is that you can have your hair gray in any color so that's kind of cool as well so I bet people are going to probably use this just to make the hair look cooler instead of make it actually look gray because there are some really nice bright colors here as well and that's fantastic so there you go that's it now we're gonna move on to facial hair finally we are looking at facial hair on a decent looking male face kind of crazy before you even ask the facial hairs color is tied to the hair color so I will do something for you quickly a solid I will just put you on like a brown and like take the intensity away and there you go suddenly you look more natural right the beards look fantastic they look really cool although it's nice throwing a bit of gray in there these do look really nice mustaches are a big juicy it's good it's good and that brings us to the end so now we can randomize and we're probably going to see some uh stuff that we wish we hadn't seen it's really cool it's really cool what a fantastic system just the amount of Freedom the sheer amount of freedom is just it's maddening you know Madeline yeah there you go if you want to quickly like cleanse yourself of what's Happening Here you just go back there and then you switch it to like the big body and you're like oh well there it is there it is uh so yeah next up is uh give Yankee I like to give Yankee I don't know there's something about them that is pretty cool it's like I never play an orc personally but the GIF Yankee is a different story with the ruthlessness born from the Mind flayer enslavement because Yankee ride the astral Seer top-rated dragons bring in their silver swords and psionic might to Bear against any trace of the illifid Menace and it does sound like these are the ones you want to bring with you in Baldur's guide 3 fighting against the Mind players yeah you want these dudes they hate them so actions game Proficiency in all skills of a chosen ability until long rest so abilities are as you'll see at the end here when we get there your strength dexterity Constitution intellect wisdom charisma so you can sort of become more proficient in the skills from one of those it's kind of cool that's kind of cool it's like a an extra action that you can pop that can help you sort of pick a lock intimidate someone cost a particularly difficult spell and so on and so forth as they can trip they have GIF Yankee psionics magehand invisible spectral hand that can manipulate and interact with objects and then they move at nine meters per second and Marshall Prodigy a lifetime of Relentless training gave you armor proficiency with light and medium armor as well as proficiency with short sword long sword and great sword I find it very interesting that they seem to be sort of casters but then they also have this martial proficiency like where are their weaknesses I guess it's Charisma right the weaknesses must be Charisma maybe no one likes these guys I don't know I don't know this is what the female looks like I'll just show them off quickly at the start here that's what the male looks like uh kind of skinny you know they still sort of shredded but like they're kind of skinny we can obviously customize both of them or we'll jump into the female first and have a quick peek at what's available now as with the others all the others you can pick your identity over here mail female or non-binary and other that's just how people react to you and address you in the world and then you get voices let's listen to them where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I want more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its Aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Pals something just woke up down here I've heard these voices a bunch already still love them they're still great they're fantastic their faces don't give Yankee are just awesome I I love the design I love the uh the the like ridged ears here with like the little shop bits on them I like the nose and the eyes it's like it's just so different you know you look at it and like your first impression is like orc but you're like wait no there's a bit of Grinch in there too and that's a good thing by the way it's a good thing uh and and like there's a beauty to them as well especially the females the males I mean yeah they kind of look like the Grinch but like for real the the females they look kind of sick and and it does seem like they can make for a pretty interesting uh class sort of setup as well like you can make a very interesting character with it because of the fact that they have these widely spread out proficiencies all right skin tones these are the recommended gethianki skin tones you have some that look sort of humanoid and then as you get lower you get to sort of what I I would say is close to Green the olive tones they're called um and Sage both kind of green but they don't go full green like Orcs do so they give you recommendations that are sort of on the line but they don't quite cross it you know but if you are feeling a little risque and you're feeling like you want to make up some of your own law I don't know what it is Maybe your gift Yankee was dipped in a golden latte at at a young age and they became this color maybe maybe they were dragged across the grass in a dryads Grove and then they became uh green I don't I don't know okay you guys can make the law up I'll leave that to you but but you can use all the skin colors if you want these are just the recommended ones these are the curated ones the picked ones that they say work best but you can make yourself look like a human give Yankee if you'd like which I find kind of interesting because maybe like with all the magic at their disposal at their fingertips maybe they cast a spell on themselves to make them fit in a little better it's not going to work by the way the NPCs will still hate you if they hate you but you can go any color you want here so it's kind of cool I'm not going to go through every single color once again I usually just go through the recommended ones and then I leave the rest to you guys let's just not take walkish green on it let's go for I personally think that the sage tones look kind of nice then let's look at these cars scars are a little harder to see on the get the Yankee because they have these built in uh you know spots I don't know what they would be called what like cheetah spots Jaguars spots lipid spots I am not so well versed in in feline law that I would know which spots these would be but they are cool that I know that part of it I know very cool right maturity you can make your character look a little older a little younger they actually really look kind of old I'm not sure how old the Yankee get whether they live like normal lifespans or longer like elves but um yeah it's nice to be able to do that it sort of works differently on all the faces so keep that in mind freckles I feel like they're kind of pointless I'll be real with you I'm gonna give the Yankee they look they look alright but like they are far less impactful because you already have these big spots on your face right and then vitiligo that's kind of cool it doesn't matter which class you're on it looks sick right and and you can sort of pick where you wanted any any spot body art one would think that this was the body art it's not that's just that's their face so you can't really see most of the tattoos very nicely uh it's sort of like it gets lost but what you can do just to to show it off is make it white and you can see them as I go through here much better I'm gonna go relatively quickly through here because we've looked at these a bunch of times already uh so yeah you can see what they look like on League of Yankee faces quickly and you can probably make up your mind this like this fits quite nicely with Yankee there are probably a few that would look quite good even this as well like some of them sort of feel like they set up the symmetry of the face quite nicely they sort of fit in between you know like this one for instance kind of cool then when you end up covering all of it then I think it looks kind of tacky but you know it's it's a choice because I hate to say it guys but being tacky is in fact a choice colors for the tattoos lots of different choices here there's also the intensity you can set it brighter or dimmer it's basically the opacity I'm a big fan of the give Yankee yeah I I funny enough like I when I first showed off to give Yankee and that was like when the Early Access first came out I just wasn't really into them but but the more I look at them the more I think yeah man I mean this is not too bad piercings they are finally working I I managed to fix it and you will now be able to see the piercings correctly it was just I had to basically flush the cache it's it's kind of a weird thing it's a little bit roundabout but I basically had to delete the Shader cache and it fixed the piercings so I will leave a little note uh in the comment section of the video and you will be able to see it and you will be able to just look on anything from the GIF Yankee further and you'll see the piercings work properly here because on the previous ones for those perhaps didn't look at them the piercings were like black you you could see the shape but you couldn't see the colors and I mean like come on man you want to see the colors right because that's part of it it's like how are you gonna accessorize huh how the hell are you gonna accessorize if it's all black you want eyes if Yankee have some pretty skinny little eyes so the real estate you're working with here is not that great let's take a drug Romeo for this eye colors these are the default ones that they give you they are not so much like based in reality they're not so much trying to be uh [Music] I don't know straightforward with the with the choices they've given you sort of some unique ones here and I want to I want to point out it's like not like the human ones basically where they try to give you ones that would be considered humanoid but I want to point out that this is probably one of the more interesting options for most of the different races and this is one of the reasons I go through all the options on all the races it's kind of different on every single race that you look at the eyes they have extra details so you look at the colors here right and the basically the the small details and I know this is like this is asking a lot you're gonna have to like really lean in but if I go for one of the lighter ones like these the small details around the iris the small details in the in the center of the pupil there's a lot going on there that you will not see on like humans or gnomes or elves you know they have something unique going on here and if you switch to all eye colors it's still there they still have basically this different style entirely yeah it's a different type of eye but it like reacts completely differently to everything same thing happens with the tieflings and it's it's awesome it's again a reason to look at all of these when you go to all colors these are the ones that they don't specifically recommend but you can still use uh it's cool it's cool you can sort of pick and choose what you like there those are the curated ones though these are the ones that they recommend you take but it's nice that's the reason I look at all of them is because every time there's like this one little option that might look entirely different on GIF Yankee versus on something else heterochromia you know how that works you pick one color you pick another color you can have them both next up makeup I see we had makeup on already this is quite subtle but it can go both ways you can make it quite eye-catching hahaha um I shouldn't be so pleased with myself you can can set up a tint level for the metallic tint and the glossy tent and let me just tell you it's awesome I I've been gushing over this for the past four hours already I'm sorry I'm not going to stop basically every color here is like completely different when you throw the metallic tint on it like there's the glossy tint and then I'm going to go through some of the colors on glossy and then I'll go through some of the colors on metallic and you'll see what I mean so if I throw it on now it just it enhances it entirely and I I would love it if you guys could show me some of your designs of of characters somehow I don't know how you're gonna do it if there's like a Reddit for for character submissions then link me up to that or something because there are some really cool options here and I feel like the smart boys who who are really good at character creating you'd expect me to be good at this but I'm not I feel like the smart boys are really good at character creating would be able to come up with some really really really awesome stuff with these so I'm just showing you without metallic once again because it gives you a good look at the color because once you throw a metallic on there it doesn't look so good anymore I mean it looks better it's just it doesn't look like the same color it sort of gives you a completely different color anyway that's the idea um very cool stuff you can do that obviously to any of the different designs here and they can look cool lips same basic idea where you can throw the glossy and metallic on them and then they end up looking pretty fab I like it I really like it actually but again for the purposes of the preview I will just show you what it looks like if you throw the regular colors on there with glossy on them and then you can sort of imagine what it would look like if you make it metallic because you know it's kind of cool it's something you want to imagine right did you guys think that the githyanki will have facial hair let's do a quick uh guess here I have no idea I have not looked I do think they will have facial hair they look like the kind of race that'll have facial hair so let's have a peek when we get there we get there we're almost there now when you come to the hair on the GIF Yankee you will notice that it's actually a little bit different we have been until this point seen pretty much the same on every race in terms of the layout of the hair but I'll give Yankee for some reason it looks like they've curated it a little bit I think there might be either a few less Styles or they might just have shuffled it around a bit and I'm not sure exactly why that is I'd love to know why it is but I don't know but it's different usually on all the others we started with this style right here and we went down from there whereas on GIF Yankee we're starting with a different one and it's not a bad thing uh we're gonna go through it quickly I put red highlights in let's make it a slightly brighter red if possible let's see that's fine we'll just do oh let's go for white or a lighter color there you go the reason I put the highlights on is so that you can see where the Highlight zones are and you can make up your mind about whether or not you like the hairstyle if Yankee's camera angle is a little lower it's like it's like they're looking down on me so once again keep in mind that I can make this look less Tacky by turning the highlight color off but in this way I'm showing you basically where you will be able to highlight your hair so you will see the Highlight is like this at the bottom and then the top is where the base color is and you know so on and so forth on each it looks a bit different this is such a cool hairstyle oh I can't get enough of it seriously like the hair system in this game at this point I'm I'm gonna be honest with you I think it's seconded To None now the one thing I think that could have pushed this even further into the damn stratosphere is if they had modular systems in their hair but I really think that that's unnecessary and I think that oftentimes that sort of compromises the vision of the artists in some ways it works in some situations and it makes sense in some situations but when you have this amount of styles I feel like it's unnecessary so I wouldn't even hold that against them in the least not in the least I think it is really one of the coolest systems and for real uh the the hair texture and the feel of the hair is just it's it's just fantastic in this like it is honestly it's so good it really is like they they've they've nailed it especially when you zoom in and you look at it up close it basically I'm not gonna say it looks real because that's not really always the end goal but it looks so cool it's like I just want to run my hand through that here you know oh and again in motion it actually looks quite nice as well I just ugh you know I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait to make my own character and yeah I'm saying this now I've been doing this for five hours or four hours or whatever I still haven't even considered what I'm gonna do yet because I haven't even gotten through everything yet I've sort of peaked at everything but I haven't gone through all of it yet and I haven't decided like how can I decide there's so much going on here and you know what I'm gonna say I'm a little disappointed by some of the people on my Twitter with the characters they've made I just see such boring characters I'm saying this now as someone who's most likely going to pick like plain black hair a very normal look yeah man okay I get mocked constantly because I keep going for the same Styles and the same look and feel for the characters but like still there's so many exciting options here okay we'll use this one for now uh although no wait let's pick one like this and then I'll show you quickly what it looks like if you do the different colors let's take the highlights off and then I'll show you the hair colors that they have here with the hair in this game they don't have a recommended section they sort of just give you everything you know I I do feel that most of the races will have a set of hair colors that would suit them and if you're going for like a law friendly playthrough where you're making a character that suits the law and Suits the the rice that you picked then obviously you're going to want to try and figure out what that is sure I'll leave that up to you though I'm sure there's enough resources out there on the internet to help because we are in fact in the Forgotten Realms and well you know these uh these characters these races these options have been around for a long time so if you want resources you can find them I'm sure and yeah I mean like for real geez some of them look fantastic and some of them really do look like they're fit so I'm sure you can find something I'm gonna go with just something like the the black quickly again I know I picked the black all the time but it's just so I can show you what the highlights look like the highlight colors there's a lot of them I'm not going to go through every one but I will just show you how it works when you pull the intensity up it sort of brings the opacity up but it brings it up from the bottom or at least from the one point that they choose and then it fills up and you can choose any color on that you can choose like a darker black which is really nice I do wonder sometimes why they don't give you the darker black on the main hair color but it's whatever they're very bright colors here like really really really bright and you can do some pretty fantastic stuff speaking of fantastic stuff you can also do highlights it's grain okay they call it grain and you can make your character's hair look sort of gray if you use a white tone here or gray neutral like they have there but you can switch this to something like a purple or pink and you can do something else with it once again allows for a lot of cool customization options and I'm sure people will get very creative with it so there you go facial hair this is 100 linked and there you go congratulations if you picked yes for beards you win this is linked to your hair color and all these options are the same as these options here so they are locked together and uh yeah the facial hair on the ladies GG Baldur's Gate wins when you see a lip of that size you generally think to yourself yeah let's put a mustache on there cover that lip up a little bit because it's unnaturally large but I mean sometimes you know maybe it's not the best idea sometimes it's it's better to not have a beard regardless and just embrace the fact that you look a little different so you can do all the facial hair on the ladies yes and if you have a nice big beard like this you can also do different hair colors on it and then you can do it's the same as the hair as I mentioned and then you can do the grain as well in this case it's ridden I chose red as the color here you can change and choose the color in the hair options and it's pretty cool yeah pretty cool and that's it we're done with the ladies now we're gonna randomize let's see what we get I'm pretty curious to see what to give the Yankees look like oh man that's very pink what the hell it feels like they sort of that was like a properly Made Up character cute man oh dude I don't know why but I just do feel like the green suits them you know when you when you get a green tone on them it tends to look and brown and brown green and brown I feel like it tends to look better oh dude the heterochrome uh the uh Vitiligo looks really nice yeah look at that sick there's the heterochromia oh that's also kind of nice it's like the Karen Yankee no oh no oh dude that's that's awesome see that's got like a story tied to it right that lady has seen some there you go give Yankee ladies I mean I like it man that's that's sick yeah okay uh now we're gonna switch to the men I don't always have to go back like this but I tend to do it anyway uh they are cool they're cool they're cool they have big old Jugheads now much like with the ladies you can pick your identity female non-binary other or male and then you can pick your voices let's give them a listen be wary this it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there pretty fantastic choices and pretty fantastic faces lots of Faces by the way some of the races have very few these guys have a lot and I think it's probably because there's a lot that you can do with them you know even though they don't give you like actual customization over the face they give you enough options to be able to pick something that would work for you and this is like really insane like the amount that these change like look at these angles dude look at these damn angles look at the size of that top lip like wow but like for real the amount that they change is just it's amazing it's really really cool we're gonna go with the default one for now once again I know it's a little boring but uh let's look at the skin cones they once again recommend like the earthy uh Browns Golds I feel like they do go sort of yeah into the greens a little bit they got ocher here they've got Olive and then they got sage and then I feel after that it sort of drops off so like when you get to about Sage here then this is where it's human tones so that first little chunk there that would be the proper tones for the gift Yankee and these ones are extras so I'm not going to go through all of them uh this is just sort of like a whatever situation yeah you can use them uh yeah look a little strange but it'll still work then you can go all skin colors you can do this on every single race and you can pick whatever you want you can go for a blue character a proper green character a red one a pink one yeah man you can make yourself look like a candy floss monster it's all good man it's all good you pick what you want and you leave satisfied let's take a green let's do it right scoring again like with the ladies the scars they are a little hard to see on the githyanki because they've got a lot of business going on on the face already I do think it's like I mean obviously these markings are pretty important to them as in like they are trademark give Yankee markings but it would be cool if the faces had like slightly different markings I realized again that makes no sense because you know once again let's get the Yankee Mark in but like it would be nice to customize them a little bit you can do the freckles the maturity is the age of your character it gives you some more wrinkles crow's feet whatever the freckles you can sit more or less it's not so impactful on the give Yankee but it's cool to have regardless and then the vitiligo I will say the one thing with the Vitiligo overall is that it would be cool if you could choose different patterns or different looks but I think it's for the most part enough there's no there's no complaints from me for that let's move on to body art these are the tattoos for the get the Yankee I'm going to set it on white because it's easier to see there you go some cool choices here obviously some that really work and some that really don't work but that's like I'm gonna be real that's on you hey that's that's on you to make uh to make happen if there's something that doesn't work try harder I'm sure you can figure it out I'm still trying to look at this and think like hmm if I'm making a barbarian what kind of war paint would I have on most likely not going to be like a weird creepy crawly on my cheek much likely not going to be some like weird corruption stuff it'll be something more Primal I have not decided yet still trying to figure it out the colors that you can pick there are a lot of them and they're very colorful they are quite bright they are quite impactful the color that you see here is very much the color that you get there which is good really good oftentimes I completely disregard the body paint and tattoo section because it just looks crap like it just looks crap people have like Blurry tattoos and it's not like the the quality of the game is bad it's just that the tattoos are like they look terrible you know you know they have like Blurry tattoos or they have as an example like washed out colors or something like that uh yeah it's it's unfortunate but it happens quite often more than you think so I'm very happy to see that the colors in this are nice the earrings and stuff the piercings are very cool I will mention this a few times as I go forward but before in the video they were all black it was kind of messed up now it's fixed I will leave a comment down below just saying that but yeah you can now at least see the different colors on them and that's important because well you know they're kind of cool anyway moving on eyes these are the colors that they recommend for the gift Yankee even though they give you Yankee's eyes are pretty small you know they they sort of less real estate than some of the other races you still get to actually see them quite significantly even from a distance I will praise this system uh over and over again I will keep saying good things about it because I love it so much I don't know how they do it and I mean it's it's the same for I don't know how other games mess it up but basically oftentimes in games when you zoom out a little bit you can't see the eyes at all in this somehow even when you zoom all the way out you can still see it so the recommended ones are pretty basic but when you click on show all then you get a whole bunch of different colors you get the Demonic ones and all that but you can see that the GIF Yankee eye type still sticks through it and it's pretty nice I'm not going to show you all the colors here because these are not the recommended ones but still there are lots of choices you can go for the Demonic eyes they're all black ones and so on and so forth pretty cool pretty cool makeup seems like all of them start with makeup by default I feel like the makeup actually just makes it more aesthetically pleasing overall let's just turn the intensity up like it's it's subtle but it just makes the character look better and this sort of Blends in with the the markings right like if you if you just put like these on it just looks better yeah the colors on the makeup pretty cool there are lots of decent colors here they can be modified quite significantly by putting the metallic tint and the glossy tint on them I'll show you how that works in just a moment and you can probably come up with something pretty sick if you combine like a nice skin color with a nice face paint or tattoo and then a really cool makeup setup I think you can make something just fantastic something's really really cool I'm going to show you on this like let's take the yellows and then if I pull the metallic on it just makes it metallic but it still matted you throw the gloss on there and then wow and then wow you're basically David Bowie it's fantastic I love it I really I really do love it I think it's really cool and and yeah it reacts differently with all the different colors so like you can get some seriously cool looks with it experiment with it have fun with it there's a lot of nice stuff you can do then there are the lips you can make yourself look pretty snazzy there are lots of cool options for the lip colors and they once again have the option to go glossy and to go metallic which is just that's a win you know that's a big thumbs up from me if you take it on boom and boom and uh yeah looking good as you can see the color gets a lot darker when you do put it on but it still looks like the color and yeah you can you can make it look so much better I do recommend it thoroughly and you can put the metallic and the gloss on without anything else you don't need the color with it you can just put it on regardless there you go here let us have a look oh he looks good you're looking good man you don't need to have a receding hairline you see we're going to keep brown on let's go for uh let's yeah let's stick with this brown and then I'm gonna throw highlights on that will be a let's say cream or yellow yeah yellow is cool and I'm just putting these on so you can see the different hair zones so you can see how you can customize the hair each of the Styles has its own customization zones and there are a lot of them there are a lot I don't know exactly why they reorganized the hairstyles for the gift Yankee but they did I don't know if these are recommended styles for gift Yankee I really feel like these do not suit to give Yankee all that well but they changed the Styles layout a little bit for githyanki and they've sort of put different ones at the top it might just be coincidence like unintentional I would say but like all these different plats and braids and stuff yeah it's not really not really what I'd call get the Yankee style I don't know not not that I know give Yankee style but like I'm just getting a feeling that it might not be sometimes you can see the Highlight sort of takes over the entire head other times you can see that it's just a little bit here a little bit there and and other times still it just separates itself entirely you will notice very soon we're gonna get to a style where it's like one half one half I think it's really cool the way they do that and personally I think that once again if you know what you're doing if you have a dift touch you could make something sick with this like probably with the here on the one side the eye color on the other side the hair on the other side the eye color and then some makeup that sort of matches it you know oh I I yeah man I want to say like I'm jealous of people that are spending like hours upon hours in character creation and making those perfect monstrosities for themselves because it's a lot of fun but I mean here I am sitting here I'm not however committing it's like if I was trying to make something for myself yeah I wouldn't be jumping between the races I'd probably nail it down pick one and then spend like an hour and a half just trying to make that one look nice but yeah I mean part of that is knowing exactly what's available you know what this is this guy looks like Jude Law oh my god when I throw this hairstyle on I'm just like yeah that's too low there you go mine got that's it Jerome Jerome the metronome oh my God please if someone understands that please say so in the comments I just want to know that I'm not alone it's like one of these quotes from a movie that's just lived rent-free in my head for like how long has it been 25 years oh geez oh no I'm old okay let's go back down to say for instance the the one here and then I can show you the different hair colors we're gonna just take the highlights off quickly hair colors are nice and yeah if I skip a few if I accidentally like miss one like if you really wanted to if you came here to see Dusty too and I just skipped over it I'm so sorry just go look at one of the other characters I will probably cover it there because like I know there's one guy there's this one guy who will come and comment on the video and he'll be like uh you know I came here to look at this video to see uh the the hair colors for give Yankee and I really wanted to know what Dusty 2 looked like and there's always that guy I'm sorry I don't mean to be mean to that guy I'm not trying to be mean but I'm just saying I know you there guy and I know you want to see Dusty too so I'm like I'm really sorry for skipping it I didn't mean to it was an accident just go look at it on one of the others because like you know it's still there it's not going anywhere oh no better yet because I didn't cover Dusty too I have now forced you to buy the game and support larion please do it because those guys are fantastic and they've made a really nice game here let's go with green hair because we like it highlights the way it works is each hair as I mentioned each style has its own separate like zones for highlighting there are a bunch of colors you can pick from by default then you can expand that and you can have even more you will notice that the colors are way darker on the highlights which is really nice they have like brighter more impactful more boom boom boom colors you know but again it's something that you have to mix and match you'll find like you'll find something that's cool you'll find something that's cool all right we're gonna take it off for now though and then we're gonna have a look at grain the way grain works is it is sort of a natural grain process as you slide this up and the hair gradually gets more gray as you can see over there all the way gray and you can change the color as well you can yellow your hair or you can brown or you can pink or you can red any color you want you can use for grain there you go let us continue facial hair let's have a peek and as you can tell the grain carries over to the beard and it is sort of tied in 100 percent so like your your colors that you pick there are the same as the colors that you get here these beards look so good dude these beards look so good it's like the same beards every time but I can't get over how good they look I'm just saying they are they are nice the mustache is also pretty good I'm not even a fan of a mustache like you know it's not it's not really a big thing for me I will mention like almost every time though that I do think the one thing they're missing with this is stubble it's not a deal breaker though let's randomize yes hell yes dude they do not hold back with randomization it's funny that every now and then when you randomize a look comes along that feels so together that you think to yourself hey hey hey hey hey one of the game divs or artists or whatever must have made that thrown that in there and and pretended that it's a random look every now and then that happens I realize that's not the case I don't I don't think that's the case at least but like sometimes man sometimes I feel like these guys they're messing with us in the best possible way but there you go get the Yankee mail they look pretty cool yeah it's like a weird mix between mad Mickelson and Jude Law that's what I what I see these faces as I don't I don't know I don't know they are beautiful though they're all beautiful in their own way and the game crashed foreign key we back in the game crashed it's no big deal we're gonna jump on to dwarf now we got to see a good bunch of different give Yankee options the dwarves pretty interesting they look pretty cool they only have two different options it's male and female they don't have different body sizes as some of the other ones do uh the males are pretty muscular the females are pretty muscular Stout and Hardy let's have a look quickly dwarves as durable and unyielding as their homes of stone dwarves are some of the finest Warriors Miners and Smiths of faerun they have base speed of 7.5 that's the Short character speed slightly slower than the nine that's the average on the others the woman combat training their proficiency with battle ax handax light hammer and Warhammer they have dark vision up to 12 meters and woman resilience advantage against saving throws with poison and resistance to poison damage then the sub races are quite interesting this is the gold dwarf that we're looking at right here they're known for their confidence and Keen intuition the culture of the deep Kingdom values family ritual and fine craftsmanship they have Dwarven toughness their health increases by one and then every time they level they get another one so they're gonna have a lot of Health at the end probably a good tanky Shield dwarves great losses in the ancient Wars against goblins and Orcs have led these dwarves to adopt a cynical mindset but they will endure anything to restore their ancestral homelands they have Dwarven armor training which is light and medium armor proficiency and then we have Durga these dudes are sort of like the drow dwarves once enslaved by eldrich mind flayers yoga adapted to Freedom with harsh practicality they're called dominions and gift for stealth are well known throughout the underdog they have Superior dark vision that's double the dark vision and up to 24 and yoga resilience which is advantage against saving throws against Illusions and being Charmed or paralyzed now in terms of the customization I'll first just show you that's what the male looks like that's what the female looks like female over there male over there these are all just serving suggestions so if I jump into gold dwarf and I start customizing the female you will notice that if you go to the skin tone you click on all you can make yourself into a dugar here there's nothing stopping you and the customization options are all the same so I just want to say that straight up at the start don't think that one set of dwarves has anything different from the others they're all the same so this is just the dwarf customization I will show you at the end what the serving suggestions are like what colors they suggest but that's about it it's basically just the skin tones even though again you have all of them on all of them so first up identity male female or non-binary and other that's just how people refer to you in the game world and then let's look at the voices hmm what's that let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly there you go you can pick whatever voice you like male or female the face is pretty nice I do feel like some of them look a little samey but there are decent faces here that you can pick from once again you can see the recommended sort of color on them even though when you go on like the drow the Durga the drought dwarves they still show these same colors there so it's not really valid in that way skin tones these are the ones that they suggest again for the gold dwarves that we are on right now it's sort of human colors you know it's sort of human colors I think it's basically the same as what you get when you pick human but you can go for all and then you can make your character any which color you like you can make yourself into Shrek you can make yourself into a strawberry or an apple you can make yourself anything anything you like once again the freedom is there but if you want to try and be low friendly then you know what to do scoring some decent choices as always can't really see that one back there but it's fine for now there you go and then the burn marks then you get to set your maturity that's like basically the age of your character I think it looks quite good on the dwarves [Music] and then freckles and that looks good on everything let it be known I like freckles you can set the quantity and you can set the opacity and then finally vitiligo you don't get any more customization for this you just get to slide this up or down and that's that body odds we're going to go through this pretty rapidly because we've seen this a bunch of times already but you might not have so you can still see it here for the first time and that's cool it is basically just on the face there's nothing for the rest of the body well it's the face and the neck but there's nothing for the rest of the body and there are some good ones here some nice ones I have already seen some characters that look pretty cool and they use these uh tattoos or body art to Great advantage and I've seen some really tacky looking ones by by randomizing it's it's kind of up in the air right now I feel like you can make some super cool stuff but it takes a little bit of effort and sometimes people don't have the patience for if it because they just want to play the game you know so good on you if you manage to make something cool colors there are some decent choices here and I say this almost every time but they shine through quite nicely like they don't lose themselves in your skin tone which is cool they look natural but they also look nice and bright like a freshly painted tattoo they're not faded they're not blurry nothing like that the white specifically looks really cool yeah it's kind of nice I I'm like every time I look at this I'm struggling more and more to decide what I want to do with my character piercings I mentioned before that we fixed the piercings it was something to do with the shaders not working properly but uh yeah they're kind of cool they actually have color now there you go I was curious about those knives I've seen them there it is the eyes they give you some suggested eye colors here which I have noticed now in my time in the character creation system that these are the basic ones that they give you for the humanoid races which is literally all the races um but like the non-demon races and like the non-drow race I suppose it's not humanoid again that's the wrong word the more human-like races there are the races that are sort of human adjacent uh they give you these suggestions but you can still go for all and then you can do whatever you want you can go for the Demonic eyes you can go for the regular eyes you will once again notice that each of the the sort of races have their own design on like the pupil and like all the details inside there and it's very cool to see but yeah again these are the suggestions that they give you and they are different for almost all of them you can do heterochromia so you can make one one color the other the other color and that's cool makeup some pretty subtle stuff here but then uh you know some pretty decent options regardless I will show you the colors in just a moment as we've gone through here I mean like because this one for instance doesn't look like much of its black but if you make it this color it's quite bright [Music] the colors are very interesting in this you get to actually put a metallic tint level on it and a glossy tint and that makes it sort of super duper shiny and it makes it look really cool the color choices however well you know you can't really see them all that well if you have this on let me take this slightly more robust one but if you take for instance the leaf one here green leaves you throw this on you throw that on it's a white darker color it obviously looks fantastic but it's a way darker color so I'm going through it like this so you can see the different colors and how it interacts with the character if I miss any I apologize it's just sort of a in-depth look at what's available and yeah just know on any of the other races it looks almost identical to this not all the races have makeup though I don't think that the dragon folk have makeup I don't think I'm not 100 on that they might have makeup but I'm pretty excited to finally get to them when we do get there but yeah again the metallic you can make it sort of look really cool or not it's up to you there we go then the lips it's basically lipstick and you can pick different colors as always and you can pick to put the metallic tint and the glossy tint on and it looks kind of nice these ones I do feel like and at this point it's too late now but I do feel like I should have Consolidated all of this because it's all the same options but then you don't get to see it on the specific races it's like sometimes you come in here and you want to see Full Dwarven customization so here's full Dwarven female customization this is it it's the comprehensive guide man so when you put the glossy intent levels on yeah it's it's quite a different experience they look quite nice but again that's for you to discover and figure out hairstyles let's zoom out a little bit so we can see them in the entire team we're gonna leave black on and then we'll put a let's say a highlight of like yellow let's go with the yellow highlights and we'll pull it up so you can see where the Highlight is now I'm gonna go through the Styles like this and I'll just spin the head a little bit as I go through you can see where the Highlight zones are which parts are highlighted and yeah it's kind of cool you can basically decide that what you want to do with it I realized that a lot of it looks very tacky when you do this I know that okay I know that but it's still the best way to show it off because like as an example that doesn't show you where the Highlight zones are and uh you might not you might not know you know if you're looking at this and you're trying to figure out what to do is this how you do it so you figure it out some really cool Styles and I feel like most of these look really good on the Dwarven females they have once again shuffled them a bit I say Shuffle Just because they're not in the same places as they were on like The Elves and the humans but yeah oh God these styles are fantastic there's just so much good stuff in here man so much good stuff I think with a hymn and I don't know if this is the same for you guys but for me specifically it's probably the hardest Choice uh like you know sometimes it's obvious like and I want to say this about a good example would be Diablo I played Diablo 4 recently I made characters there and I'm gonna tell you straight up I felt like it was obvious which ones I would use right from the start when I was making my character because certain styles were just cooler than other styles certain Styles look better they sort of suited classes better and so on and so forth but in this there are so many styles and they all look really really really good so you know it's gonna make it really hard for me to pick something and that's maybe why you are here you could potentially be here for inspiration and I hope you find it now for the purposes of this video let's pick a style like this one and then we're gonna jump in I'll show you the different hair colors without the highlights quickly they got the basic colors here the normal looking colors then as you go further down you start getting them more exotic ones they're slightly brighter cooler ones I say cooler there's nothing uncool about blonde hair or brown hair it's just you know these stand out a little bit more when you have them uh it's it's good it's good like the oranges specifically look like they really do it for me the reds are kind of nice as well even though I feel like the red is a little bit too close to Pink for Comfort it's still quite nice I think that the red in the highlights is nicer anyway there we go let's pick Orange and then I'll throw the highlights in there and show you highlight colors I'm not going to go through all of them but you get the idea with it you can go to all highlight colors and you can get like a whole lot more here and then you can do some pretty fantastic stuff with it I I believe that you guys will be able to make some nice looking characters yep believe in yourself because I believe in you lots of cool colors here finally graying you pick a color much like the highlights with a few more gray options then you can set the gray intensity it's good it's good but you can use it like highlights if you'd like to as well so you can put any color in here that you want it looks kind of gross if you put you know some bad color combinations in there but you can sort of pick and choose and find something cool right I'll leave it on Gray for now we'll throw some gray hairs in there just because we are about to move on to the beards obviously the female dwarves can have beards and the gray hairs do find their way into the Beards which is cool I like it so there you go we can go through them all and have a quick peek big beards small beards well groomed beards bushy beards all the beards are available and on the Beards the colors are the same as the hair so just know that your hairstyle options your colors from there will translate into this quite nicely you pick the color of your beard and hair together as you can see and you pick the grain intensity as well there you go done let us randomize the female Dwarfs I was about to say we're gonna see some really cool options here and if you pay attention you will see that I will have to and I think this is how it works if I take this and I show all skin colors then if I unlimited like that then I randomize it will start picking from the entire pool as far as I understand I think it Picks Them far less regularly but it does pick from the whole pool and you can sort of you curate the randomization like that I'm not sure I said it now and I and I believe it but I'm not 100 it looks like it's still picking just from the recommended colors either way you you do have a decent selection here and I will show you in just a moment oh that is really cool I will show you in just a moment what you get on the other ones because we're going to go back now and we're going to go into mail but before we do that I will show you that these guys they basically just have different suggestions for the skin tones here these actually look like the same and then they might have like a different default on the here and then if you go into the Durga these ones should definitely have different ones yeah there you go so all the ice Ash dusk lichen amethyst tones over here these are the recommended ones so if I randomize on these you will see that they pick from these ones but they also have the regular dwarf tones down here so it's sort of like a it's a mixed bag if you know what I'm saying but the customization options are exactly the same so just know that you're not missing out on anything if you pick one over the other you've got it all now we're going to jump into that's a really cool dwarf the male customization let us do it so first up identity male female non-binary other cool yeah all the choices are there I'm going to do something that I should never actually do I'm going to take the beard off the dwarf oh no I realize it's a bad bad bad move but I have to do it so I can show you the skin tones in the scoring and stuff like that I'm sorry I'm sorry you had to see this let's listen to the voices first health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened more of those Richard there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened more of those wretched things decent choices for the voices heads they have yeah yeah they have a specific look to them they have a look and feel to them that is quite dwarvish they have the large noses the potato noses as my German father would call it the cartofo NASA that's fantastic I love it I love it and they do look yeah distinctly dwoven much better with a beard on so I'm sorry I'm showing you this preview here I'm so sorry I'm so sorry once again these skin tones these are the default ones for the default shield and Golds dwarves when you go onto the dear God you will get a different set of recommended skin tones you'll get the more drowish ones the more underdarkian ones I know that's not a word I just made it up on the spot I'm comfortable with it I'll use it again don't worry but these are the skin tones that they recommend and they're okay they're fine they look good I'll just take one of these sort of basic ones here and then I'll show you what the and oh and sorry yeah you can click on all skin tones and you can make yourself into a draw if you'd like these skin tones are here these ones are basically the dry skin tones they will be at the top when you make the yoga and that's cool but you can also go all the way down here and make yourself into whatever you like I mentioned uh Shrek and I will say it again you can find yourself a nice Shrek green and you can sort of live like that you know why not why the heck not you do you scarring looks kind of good on these I like how the maturity level also looks on the male dwarves I feel like they already have a lot of lines on their face so then we throw the maturity on there when you push it up it just looks even better but yeah they've seen some these guys they got hard faces freckles you can set the intensity and the amount that sort of freckles them on like raindrops falling on the face and then vitiligo there you go and this covers the whole body for those wondering yeah I I didn't make that clear earlier on but uh yeah body art this is the tattoos on the face it's just on the face and then sometimes on the neck as well I'm going through here quite quickly again because we've looked at this a bunch of times already but uh yeah you get a lot of options here you get a lot of options for the colors as well and that's pretty cool I will I will skip through the color options pretty quick as well so you can just get an idea of what you can do but I'm sure you'll find something that tickles your uh fancy maybe you want a little centipede on your face I don't know maybe that's what you're looking for yeah it's possible it's possible in terms of the colors you can come over here and have a look there's no recommended colors on these they just give you everything and you can set the intensity of the color which is the opacity it translates very nicely it looks very good it is fantastic there's nothing wrong with it and uh yeah like with the variety that they have and the tattoo system you can probably make something nice something nice all right then piercings also a pretty decent system lots of cool options here not like not crazy stuff and before anyone asks there's no genital piercings that's not it's not a thing but yeah the eyes they give you the suggested ones over here which is the same for most of the races uh and then they look good they look good but then you can do heterochromia as well and you can also say it all eye colors and when you say all you can sort of set up a custom story for your character by giving it demonic eyes you can say oh yo yo y'all possessed by a demon and some such uh you can choose the slightly more exotic colors and then you can sort of mix and match if you like you can take that one over there you can heterochromia and you can pick that one over there and it can look uh yeah you do you you do you makeup let's set the intensity up it is up good I think the makeup looks nice on the dwarvish males I don't know man I like the makeup quite a lot there you go the makeup colors they are nice they are good they are boom boom boom boom you get to do as you can see here metallic tint and glossy tint and that just makes them even more fabulous it gives you a like glossy and metallic sheen on it that you can enable or disable to your heart's content it changes the colors though so like as you go through the colors here you will notice that some of them as an example this one it gets much darker when you when you turn it on but it does look completely different it's a different style so yeah you should check them out if you are thinking of making something really cool you can probably do it with this makeup setting yeah there's a lot of nice options and there are decent colors as well like again this combined with the body art there's something for everyone here definitely the lips same situation here you pick the color and then you can set the dwarf males have pretty small lips but you can set the metallic tint and the glossy tint and then you know come up with something cool it's good stuff it's good stuff I'll show you how it looks quickly it's not great on the on the male dwarfs because the lips are so small but when you do put it on and you take like a nice pink color or something like that you you yeah you can see the difference again the lips are teeny weeny so it's like whatever but I believe in you guys you can make it work here male dwarves and here yeah there should be lots of it pick whatever has the most now let's do something slightly different we'll take white hair and we'll take highlights black right the highlights I'm leaving them on for this so you can see the Highlight zones you can sort of see the Cruella Deville style highlights in there they're different on every one of them the highlights on that one are just at the back there I do have them all the way up right yeah and and you will notice again that you can sort of see where they would be I just show you again with this like tacky looking style the black and the white so that you can tell exactly if you want to use a specific hairstyle where you would be able to change the colors it's quite easy to plot and plan a course for a good looking character if you know what you can do with the hair because they're here in most situations especially if you leave your helmet off is one of the most impactful options I think one of I mean in in Boulder's guide here specifically you might argue that the skin color is more impactful because you can pick like literally anything as a skin color you can make your character look like an actual clown but the hair is still like it's pretty big it's pretty in your face you know and you can sort of see it from a decent distance so picking a good hairstyle and hair color setup yeah man you're going to want to do that it's important and there are some nice Combos and then on top of this we'll get to it in just a moment but there's also grain so you can pick like a darker style and you can add some gray hairs to it make yourself a stunning looking Silver Fox of some sort it's cool it's cool I get like wild Hammer dwarf vibes from these some really nice hairstyles here there you go and I mean it's it's obviously can be repeated a billion times but it's worth saying again because I do repeat myself a lot in these videos you do get to use all the same styles on male and on female they're all on male and female and that's that like you get to you get to pick them all so for the grain let's have a look at let's take this one here I'll go through the hair colors first and then I'll show you the grain hair colors it's the same on most of the races you basically have a choice between a bunch of blondes Browns blacks and then you get to like the Reds and there are some pinks as well here they translate very nicely it's a really nice color system that they have on the hair oftentimes you see a color here in a character creator and then you click it and then it's nowhere near as bright or vibrant or impactful as saturated as you'd expect it to be but in this yeah man they don't hold back they let you make your character look like anything you like and I I respect that I do so if we take a color like let's go for this one it's a good one then we can change the highlights on here we can throw some lighter highlights in if we like and you can change the intensity on that once again it's something you're gonna have to mess around with you can do any color highlight you like and it can have varying degrees of impact then the grain is basically like another set of highlights it's just a color that you can pick it can be gray and you can make it look like your character is actually green or you can pick red and your character can be ridden your character can be green in your character can be pinking it's whatever it's up to you you can make it work the way you want it to work that's it beards the most important part for our dwarvish male customization you don't want to mess around with the scrappy nonsense at the start here even though it's okay I would say you are looking for these ones at the very least you want these beards on your dwarf because that brings it all together and your character actually looks like a real dwarf I mean I mean I don't discriminate against the scrappy Birds because I have a scrappy beard but like if possible you want to take the big boys they look better the colors here are very much locked to your hair so what you pick on your hair color that's what you get here and then you can Gray from here as well that goes in the beard too as much as you like and that's it let us randomize fantastic so the randomization it Bears repeating it is randomizing with the shields dwarf and the gold dwarf options because they are shared right now and if you go into and like I haven't figured this out entirely but like if you go into like here and you say all skin tones I I don't know if it's sometimes randomizes with all of them or not but basically you can see here that it's not picking the drow or the drewgar skin colors I don't know and when you go there are some fantastic looking characters here but when you go back and I'm going to show you what they look like now Shield dwarf has its own set even though I think it's pretty much the same these colors here are pretty much the same as the gold dwarf but then specifically the duga as I mentioned they have different colors here so if you randomize on Vim you will have the regular ones and then you'll also have the darker skin tones here but the full set of customizations options are the same so do not worry don't think you're missing out it's all the same and that's it we are done with the dwarves let's move on half elf I'm gonna be honest with you about the half elves they are slightly less interesting even though I feel like the half elf is like it's a nice looking race like they are physically very attractive they might even be the most attractive because they have like a nice mix between the humanoid and the elf the human and the elf customization and looks they have nice delicate features but they still have slightly stronger jaws slightly bigger muscles stuff like that whatever um they they sort of a nice mix between them and I'm going to show you what they look like in a moment let's just read the uh the description half elf curious ambitious and versatile hot valves are welcome everywhere but struggle without a community to call their own nine meters per second that's the basic civil militia proficiency with uh Spears Pikes helberts and glaves and armor proficiency with light and shields that same as humans dark vision up to 12 and then Fair ancestry they have advantages on saving throws on being Charmed and you can't be put to sleep now there are sub races I will show you right now the customization options on them are very very similar very much exactly the same actually and um yeah I will I will go through them in a moment I just want to show you quickly what the males look like and then what the bigger females look like so you have a choice between big and small and you have this choice on all of them so here you have high half health touch of the feywald remains in half valves with this bloodline and even those untrained and Magic possess a hint of wild Power you get a cantrip this is the same as the high elf can trips you can choose it and you can select from the Wizards Bell list below and then they say here doesn't use spell slots and because that will it uses your intelligence modifier you have and you're gonna have to look quick at this you can just pause if you want to see it acid Splash bone chill Firebolt poison spray Ray of frost shocking grasp blade Ward friends Dancing Lights light magehand mine illusion and true strike that's basically the same as what higher halves have and if you pick half High Health then you get those but if you pick the other ones that goes away so if you pick wood half elf like they would have parents these half valves have a quickened stride and an eye for stealth yet many break away from isolation in the feyron forest to explore the rest of the Realms they get 1.5 per meter faster move speed they look the same as well like you will look they look the same then you get drow half elf most drawer result from Liaisons sorry that's most Hofbrau results from Liaisons between the salderine drow and surfaces while hofdrau inherited a few magical gifts they aren't usually raised in the underdog they get Dancing Lights as a cantrip that's it you don't get to pick like you do on high elf you just get that one right so these ones look a little different as you can tell much like with the drow the customization options they are different on half elf specifically like as a whole but when you come into specifically the drows they have a different set of suggested skin tones and that's basically it so let's get into customizing we're going to edit the appearance on this one we're going for female first your first choice is obviously the body types as I've shown you then identity non-binary other male or female and then the voices there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its Aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly something just be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura there you go you can pick the male or female voice of your dreams the heads they are some of the most beautiful faces I feel like they have really nice faces they are basically and and I've actually confirmed and looked it's like they're combinations between the humans and elves it's kind of weird how they have mashed them up it's cool it's really cool they have really really nice faces like if you're looking for a beautiful character you come here a really really really nice they're so pretty too pretty probably skin tones you will notice here this is the set of options for the half brows and then all of these below are for the wood elves and the High Elves you can sort of pick any of these if you want to stay true to the law obviously based on which of the half elf sub races you pick but then when you get to all skin colors you can also just go ham you can pick whatever you want there are lots of different types here greens pinks Reds Blues it's up to you you really you can do whatever you can do whatever that's for you to explore though for this let's just go for the pale color because why not and then we can see the scars they look really cool dude these faces are actually just so picture it they're so perfect it's like a work of damn art I'm just gonna say it over and over again they are too good looking there you go man if you're looking for the best looking race you go for these guys I mean it's it's again it's in the eye of the beholder maybe it's just me that thinks they're the prettiest but um it just feels like they are like symmetrically perfect and they have all these like perfect features and whatever you get to set the maturity make them look a little older if you like freckles mandatory I feel and they're on the face and on the neck you can set the quantity and you can set the opacity and then vitiligo I'm probably still saying that incorrectly but it's whatever there you go body art these are the tattoos I'm just going to change the hair quickly so we can see them nicely let's just take something like this go through these pretty quick because we've seen these tons of times very cool options lots of fun stuff to do here go crazy guys make something cool link it on the Baldur's Gate Reddit and uh yeah wow people with your creativity do it I'm actually starting to get vibes of the kind of character I want to make here I like this hairstyle and I like these tattoos man oh man oh man please this is too much okay the colors lots of different colors for the tattoos here can jump in and sort of customize to your heart's content I part of me wishes you could do the glossy and metallic tints on these like you can on the uh lipstick and the makeup but it's fine then you can set the opacity then you can do piercings yeah dude this this face is just so neat and tidy something about it is too perfect I don't know maybe it's just me lots of cool piercings though good choices then we're moving on to eyes so the elves they have their own unique eye colors you'll see they have like elf colors down here these are the basic ones the human ones basically you'll see just the regular colors uh this black there which is not really a human color but it's one of the choices and then we get down to the bottom you've got elf gold and then it keeps going they obviously have their own unique look to their pupils and and the and the colors in there and stuff like that but um yeah it's all good they look nice and then you can also go to all and you can do the Demonic eyes you can do the black eyes you can do whatever else you want all the unique colors if you're desire takes you there then you can do heterochromia this explains itself you can just have one eye one color one the other color it's pretty cool makeup let's have a peek let's make sure the intensity is full makeup looks really good on the uh half elves once again I say that almost every time I feel like the makeup just looks good it just looks good and I've been showing it off with these because it's the it's the biggest one you can set a metallic tint and a glossy tint that makes it sort of you know a lot more fabulous a lot more bright and and colorful and you know shiny but then you can look at the colors without it as well it gives you sort of a more straightforward look at what the color is just imagine though each of them can be changed each of them can be modified each of them can be set up in any which way you take this one for example boom boom it looks different it's kind of cool but this is really something you're going to want to mess around with for yourself because like come on there's so much fantastic stuff you can do with this so go for it go for it it's cool there you go and even like the most basic ones can look awesome like really awesome you know then lips just basic lip colors they are pretty sick there's not a massive list here and I think that they can have a pretty big impact especially if you use the more exotic and bright colors and then you throw the metallic and glossy tints on them you can you can make it look kind of cool so if we take this one for example throw that on there yeah man sick there you go turn it off and you can do the metallic and glossy tints without the color on as well if you'd like here we're back on the default hairstyles it's it's reshuffled itself so I'm going to leave blonde on here and then I'm going to throw some highlights on that are black so you can see what they look like I know it looks tacky I'm sorry I apologize it just gives you a good look at where the highlights are if there are any on the specific Styles and it allows you to see where you know you can throw those highlights on to have them look good oh look bad you know it's whatever it's up to you there are some really cool Styles and I think that I will continue to praise the designers if one of you ends up watching this and you watch like the whole thing and you just want input I'm giving you a thumbs up right now with my third thumb okay [Music] you did great you did great these characters are too pretty they are too pretty I wonder if this looks like this is one thing I've not tested and I'd love it if one of you guys if you if you're listening to this right now if one of you could tell me does this translate well into the game because like you know oftentimes and I think I think it does but oftentimes character creators they give you a layer of extra detail in the character creation system and that layer disappears when you enter the game because like the game can't keep up that kind of it's just insane it's like a Breakneck pace of of insane uh visual style visual Fidelity actually it's like if you if you jump in they make your character look a little scuffed mercedin is not quite as much it's not as you know visually pleasing anymore and it looks like a completely different character I'm wondering if this game is like that because again I've not actually made a character for myself yet I'm still busy going through the Styles here still trying to figure out what I like or what I don't like uh yeah it's still up in the air for me so I'd love to hear from you guys if if this is one of those games or if this actually has a decent conversion so we'll take this one for now I'm going to show you the hair colors I'll take the highlights off there you go super cool hair colors I I gush over this continuously I have been doing it for four hours now already and or longer I don't even know how long this is dude I've lost track of time but the idea of these hair colors is just that they they don't hold back they give you really bright colors they give you really nice looks and they they just say hey go go do do the thing make the character make it look good because we believe in you thanks larion you guys are so kind me putting words in your mouth no never lots of nice hair colors here you will notice that some look better on on certain races some are more natural they fit better on like you know whatever you might use fiddle around a little bit guys fiddle around the highlight colors there are so many more of them you can sort of go for brighter colors darker colors you can do anything you like with this it's really cool not going to go through all the colors here specifically but there are lots and you can see them here and they translate like one to one you see that color there it goes onto your hair it does so take the highlights off and then you can Gray you can create your hair as well I like the grain system quite a lot I think it looks quite natural oftentimes they don't do natural looking grain this I feel is good and each hairstyle gray is differently as well so you want to go through them and sort of pick and choose the one you like the most you can be completely gray or just a little bit gray it's up to you let's put a few gray hairs in there facial hair unlike the other elves the half elves can actually have facial hair we're going to go through this quite quickly and I'll show you how it looks the facial hair color is directly tied to your hair you can't have a different color beard um but yeah as I just said the regular elves the High Elves basically and the drow they can't have facial hair but these guys can because they have that human blood you know it's kind of cool the hair color as I mentioned changes this so you you pick what you want here and then the grain also affects it quite nicely there you go right let's randomize that's female done there's probably going to be some really cool looks here yeah it's fantastic it's so cool you will notice that they are picking the drow skin types here as well so with half elf specifically there's no difference between the races so I will show you because you know I like to do that I like to be thorough but the idea is look at the size of that forehead wow wow wow the idea is that's such a cool character I'm sorry that's not the idea I'm getting sidetracked the idea is that if you go into drow as an example then a half brow then if you come here it lists the ash lichen dusk Wisteria ice tones first as your suggested colors then it puts the elf tones after you can use whatever you want or you can just go for all it's just the serving suggestion that's it okay that's it what a cool character we've made there now let's go for the male ones again the customization options in the visual Style on the small bodies and the big bodies are the same there's nothing really different there let us customize them you can pick identity female non-binary or other and male and then you can do voices let's listen where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things magic keeping this chest sealed where to next let's hope the locals are friendly right faces God why are they so good looking what's going on here you can see the skin tones that they give you on the pictures here again serving suggestion it's just what they say like you know I guess makes sense the skin colors here are for the half elves in general they have the drow tones here when you do pick drow or half-drow then you get like a few extra it will be these ones over here these are the half dry ones but these are the ones that they suggest you use on basically the half High Elves or the half wood elves and you can just sort of you know go crazy you can pick sort of a more human looking one or you can do anything you like because once you get to the end here you think to yourself wait is that all the colors nope you can just click on all and then you've got access to everything and there's just an insane amount here you can do whatever you know go for it be free customize to your heart's content right let's pick this scarring you ask yourself why would you want to scar such a pretty face well you add in stories extra Tales to your character's life yeah each of these scars could be a story an extra page in your life's journey you can make your character look a little older that actually looks quite nice he ages gracefully freckles you can set the quali the quantity and then the intensity you can see that they're on the neck and on the lower what's that like the collar bones on the shoulders a little bit there and then vitiligo any amount you want moving on to the body art these are the tattoos that are available nothing full body just the face but good choices nonetheless very good choices none the less pretty cool pretty gnarly some of them but still pretty cool when it comes to the colors I'll just pick one of these and I'll show you you have a lot of decent choices and you can set the intensity which is the opacity and the colors they translate they translate okay they translate it's like you know no they don't translate text for you okay this is not Google translate I mean they look like they look here on the skin that's what I mean that's what I mean to say the white is is particularly impressive I think it's pretty cool yeah and then you can as I said set the intensity of the tattoo as well piercings pretty nice good selection and you do get to see your character up close and personal enough I know this from The Early Access bit that I played uh it's like it's an important choice it's an important choice eyes you get to do heterochromia you can have one color in the one one color in the other uh different obviously then you can go through the default ones here that they give you it's like all the human choices all these ones and then when you get down to the bottom it usually gives you the elf ones yeah here you go elf gold elf green blue whatever and then you can go for all eye colors and it's a big list of demonic eyes that you can throw in there along with all sorts of others very cool very cool lots of nice colors lots of nice choices go pick the one you like the most make up here we are good makeup I feel like they made decent enough makeup for both males and females it looks quite nice the colors are super duper they look great as you throw them on there and then you can also add a metallic and a glossy tint to each of them which is uh yeah fantastic as well fantastic absolutely fantastic I'll show you how it looks in just a moment I'm just showing you the colors quickly as an example if you take like the gray let's take like a lighter gray you throw a metallic on there it makes it look slightly more metallic you gloss it up and then it looks shiny that's awesome and each of these colors looks different when you do that they stack of green quickly and I'll show you there you go super cool I like it I like it I like it you can let your creativity Run free with this and you can make some really cool stuff I hope to see more characters with makeup I mean me personally I tend to stay away from makeup and body paint and stuff like that when I make characters because I always feel like it might not age so well you know you know it's like in real life you you think to yourself hmm if I pick that now I might be screwing myself later because I might get sick of that you know and I'm not sure if the game allows you to customize your character visually later but you know it's just still it's a it's a very big choice and it's a commitment you know it's a commitment going for like a full face tattoo or like a big makeup or something I don't know if I'm brave enough for it and what much like with the other makeup you can also do metallic here and glossy here and it looks perfect there you go the color disappears a little bit when you do that but it still looks really nice there you go that's it here let us make the highlights red so I made this gaudy looking hair so that you can see the highlight sections the Highlight zones on the character's head and then you can decide you can make an informed decision you can choose which of these is best for you if you think I'm going too fast through the hair just have a look at one of the others maybe the very first elf customization I do all the hairstyles and colors are the same across all the characters I mean I obviously have yet to do the dragons at the end but for the most part they have the same hairstyles so if you go to any of the others you might see me going a little slower stopping on some of them turning them around a little bit more I'm basically covering them as quick as I can but also as thoroughly as I can because there is not so much a time constraint it's just like you know if I get to 12 hours then I can't upload this video on YouTube because it'll be too long so so yeah there's a there's a genuine fear of maybe at getting close to that I like this one a lot the the split and this one where it's split between the two it's really cool so yeah I mean like just keep in mind I'm making it look kind of crappier but it's on purpose right it's on purpose these guys are just like devilishly handsome you know they're really nice there you go I'll leave this one on for now hair colors I'm going to just take the Highlight off so I can show you really nice hair colors I'll zoom in to show you how they look they are plentiful and plenty bright and shiny the colors look really cool my favorites are the Reds and the oranges obviously but I think some of the Blues look kind of nice too kind of nice the Orange is like wow I'm probably gonna go for the orange I don't know or maybe the red I don't know I don't know the pinks and blues and like all these others they might just be a little too bright same for the greens and the cyans here I don't know it's like it's a tough choice you know it's a really tough choice as for the highlights uh you've seen now how they look but then you can choose from a massive selection of of really nice colors there are some combinations you can pull off that will probably look really good there are some combinations you can pull off that will probably look really bad I'm gonna leave that to you guys I'm gonna leave that to you to mess up I'll take black a here quickly and then show you what the grain looks like different from the highlighting because the gray starts at the roots and it makes its way out for the most part and then you can also choose a different color for the grain so you can make it sort of gray into a different color if you like because you never know man you could be magically enhanced with a special hair color next up facial hair here we go the half valves do get beards and they look pretty cool let me just take a different hairstyle that's not so that one not covering the the hair the facial hair all the male characters and the female characters that can have beards have the same selection of beards I don't think there are any unique ones to any specific race but I mean these are good these are really nice yeah funny I'm just trying to think about it do any of the pre-made characters have beards I don't think they do do they it's funny that there's no like dwarvish pre-made character the hair colors are locked so the beard and the hairs together so if you go like orange or whatever you know there it is and then the grain is also shared between them you can make yourself look like a nice ice cream or something by doing that there you go we're done let's randomize now as I mentioned on pretty much all the other randomizers What's Happening Here is it's picking from the entire pool that's suggested to you so if you go over here and you look at the skin tones it's picking from these uh if you want the other skin tones the more exotic ones you're going to want to uh do it yourself well it's not unlimited really but like because if you do this it's actually still picking from the suggested ones just the suggested ones are down at the bottom here but yeah you can figure it out there's lots of cool Styles here and some of these characters look uh pretty fabulous and there you go now as I show at the end of each of these when you go into like draw or whatever the only thing that's different on it is that the suggested tones for the for the defaults are different so if you randomize on here then you'll get more of the drought tones and colors versus the more human ones and that's it that's it we're done let's go back to the races we're doing halfling now shave look at these guys looking thoroughly bewildered and flustered small yet capable halflings prefer the Comforts of Home and hearth but their natural luck and dexterity make them fine adventurous they move slower because they are shorter 7.5 per turn they're lucky when you roll a one for an attack roll ability check or saving throw you can re-roll the dice yeah that's that's pretty cool now you must use a new roll so you can't like you can't use the one again which I mean it makes sense you must use the neural yes Brave you have an advantage of saying throws against being frightened that's cool and then they do have sub races so we have the Lightfoot halfling and the strong heart halfling they look sort of much the same you can see these guys a little more tanned these guys are a little less tanned yeah there you go there you go Lightfoot stealthy but social these halflings travel all over faerun to make names for themselves naturally stealthy you have advantage on stealth chicks and these stronghold ones Legend has it that Dwarven blood gave strong Hearts their hardiness resistant to poison and Wellsprings of endurance these halflings easily hold their own their stronghold resilience gives them advantages on poison saving throws and resistance to poison damage customization on both of these is the same they might give you slightly and I really just mean slightly different skin tones as choices here but for the most part it will be exactly the same so just know that we customize in halflings now that's it right first choice is your identity female male or non-binary and other that's how people refer to you and then let's look at the voices else something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly there you go decent voices faces I kind of like what they've got going here I see they've got some makeup on by default which is interesting I'm just going to take that off quickly there you go nice faces I like the head shape it does look yeah very offling it's cool it's cool very nice then skin tones as I mentioned the one thing that might change between the two different types of of halflings is the skin tones but I do not even think it's different so you've got the basic humanoid skin human I keep saying humanoid but I mean human skin tones uh where it gives you sort of nice darker skins nice tan skins nice pale skins and so on and so forth but you can obviously uncheck the restrictions and you can go crazy you can make yourself a drowling if you want if you want you can make yourself a drowling you can make yourself a greenling you can make yourself a pink Ling you can do whatever the heck you want so there you go all the different colors are available we will for this not go for the face skin tone we'll just go for like a regular one over here and then we'll continue faces are nice once again they give you a serving suggestion with the color over here let's look at the scars these guys look bright-eyed and bushy-tailed I kind of like it they look ready for adventure they do look Brave don't they maturity can make them look a little older if you like freckles you can set the intensity which is the opacity and then the quantity let's leave the freckles on because they look nice and then the vitiligo there you go body art this is the tattoos we're going to go through these pretty quickly you get the the basic idea and you will get the basic idea of the colors as well when I go through them the colors work incredibly nicely they are bright they are vibrant they are there when you select them they're not washed out in any way I'm thoroughly impressed by it I mean geez dude like I'm thoroughly impressed by every step of the way here everything I see when I'm customizing the characters here I am impressed by it all looks fantastic this is like unfortunately it's going to be like my magnum opus this is the Masterpiece this is what I will basically compare all other character creators too in the future it's sad because we are reaching Peak yeah and what ends up happening is everything from here on is downhill you know everything that's not from larion Baldur's Gate is downhill so yeah lots of nice colors here you can sit the intensity as well which is just the brightness it's cool then piercings because why not easy breezy there we go eyes the suggested eye colors not a huge selection but some decent choices and then you will see in just a moment it's nice going through all of them I just want to put that out there quickly before I show you all of the the colors you can choose because again they have different types of eyes each race has their own like design on the pupil and it's fantastic but when you do obviously stray outside the norm and you pick one of these other ones then it changes it quite drastically it looks either better or worse you can pick these demonic ones you can pick some of the other colors that wouldn't usually be standard choices you can do you and then heterochromia that explains itself you can pick one color one side one color the other side it's cool it's nice makeup the makeup is always nice to look at or is exciting because of how fabulous it is quite cool it can be sort of natural it can be sort of you know just a nice little accent or extra or you can go you know overboard with it and you can make something really cool I'm gonna go through these very quickly because I feel like I'm spending too much time on the makeup that's unfortunate what you can do is you can put the metallic tint on in the glossy tint and then it looks like this and then just know that on every one of these colors it looks different you know but I'm gonna show it to you like this because I feel like the colors here are slightly better they sort of show them nicely even though I feel like if you do that it looks way nicer but it's a different style entirely so yeah lots of different colors here these are the same on every single race uh it's basically a standard across all of them there you go lips same situation where you have a bunch of colors here to choose from and there are more natural looking ones than they are more like radical ones where they basically give you something that's far out and colorful and then you get to select the metallic and the glossy tint as well which just spices it up drastically it's very nice you can make some killer looks from this you can also put the gloss in the metallic on without that it's like sometimes you just want to put lip gloss on you know not a color here these guys need good hair I'm just putting that all of them need good hair you always need good hair let's do I like ice cream I don't know why but this reminds me of like those orange ice creams with the vanilla flavor thrown in what I'm doing basically is I'm giving you a gray white highlight with the orange base and I'm going to go through the hairstyles like this because it gives you a look at the Highlight zones you can see where you can highlight as an example this one's like all the way around the front and everything uh this one is just on the front and not on the top each of them has their own different zone for highlights a lot of them are very different and it's worth knowing what's what like this for instance it's just at the bottom but not on the roots and if you want to get color on the roots you can use the grain because that comes from the roots instead of from the bottom or elsewhere you can set the Highlight opacity so that's a choice that you can make you can make like very dim highlights which I feel is actually really nice because oftentimes you have a hair color that's not quite just one color you know my hair is not just straight Brown it's not just a brown I have like darker colors in my hair I have lighter colors in my hair you know if you spend a lot of time in the sun you might have more blonde in your hair it's it's a it's a sort of interesting thing to look at and it's kind of cool how you can make these subtle changes to the hairstyles and and have it look natural you know but you can also have it look unnatural like this case in point right here you know which is fantastic more options better boom boom thank you larion thank you larion thank you for this style specifically I'm sorry I don't know it's rude of me to keep thinking of Jude Law when I see that but like what can you say man I hope Jude Law doesn't watch this video I love you man I love you what a fantastic actor okay here we go once again you get to choose sort of the intensity of this the colors that you get to choose from here as I have sort of shown off briefly are varied plentiful and I I get the feeling we might have some grain in there right now no we don't okay they just have like some of the Styles have a little bit of white there it's just Reflections I think but lots of nice colors here uh like you know there are cool tones there are warm tones the oranges specifically I really like and I like the Reds a lot too but yeah you can make some like really cool neon futuristic looks in this game or you can go for more natural looks you know but then as I mentioned you can also add the grain the grain is is again really well done I like it when you just slide it a little bit up then it gives you a little bit of gray you can go all the way and be completely gray with just like hints of your former color and then you can change this to any color you like so you can have different accents in here of varying degrees it's cool lots of colors here by the way lots of colors right facial hair because who doesn't want facial hair on their halfling good beards good beards have to wait zoom out when we get to this one because it's so big the beard color the beard grain and all that stuff is tied between uh the hair and the beard it's all together so the color you pick here is the color you get and then the gray in is the gray and you get same thing same thing there you go let us randomize oh dude actually kind of nice all right I think the halflings look kind of cool I'm curious about the Gnomes now I'm really curious about the Gnomes we're going to do mail first then we'll jump onto gnomes but I am curious I can't help but be curious like you can have ones that look more like humans and then you can have ones that do straight just look like halflings you know they look smaller they look different with bigger eyes stuff like that it is nice how the eye proportion changed like the the humans and like some of the other races have way smaller eyes here you have much more real estate with the eyes perfect perfect we'll leave that one there now we're gonna jump on to the mail I will just mention one more time that the customization options on both the sub races are the same mail look at these guys they slightly less ripped than the other characters like most of the characters so far have been like really muscular these are slightly less so let's get started so your identity is how people refer to you in the game male female or other that'll be very vim and then the voices let's go else something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly there you go yes you can have female voices on your male character so these ones interestingly enough I I get the feeling and like I look at them and I think to myself yeah this is actually quite unique because they have stubble built in and this is one of my only complaints is that there's no stumble for the beards and you will see that some of them have scars and stuff built in and I feel like whoever made The Gnome faces they they went a step further it's like they made them slightly more unique looking like none of the humans none of the elves and whatever they don't really have proper stubble scars and stuff built in they they they they're more plain compared so I was I was very impressed by these when I first saw them now these skin tones these are the suggested ones that they give you but you can go crazy with it and you can sort of do whatever like these are human skin tones much like you would expect on this uh you got the warmer ones the cooler ones the lighter ones the darker ones but then you can go anywhere you can make a uh you know you can make a little Shrek like monster you can make a little Goblin a little uh pink thing a little Smurf if you'd like you can do whatever you like you can do whatever and actually you can really make a smoke of okay you can go for blue and then white hair and then boom you got it right but yeah so for the faces and skin tellers you do you man there's a lot to do I like I like this and I want to look what this looks like quickly if I take this guy and I put extra oh my God so many scars who would have thought that the halflings would be the most scarred characters in this character creator I didn't think so there you go very cool all right uh maturity you can make them look slightly older if you'd like freckles let's throw that in there there you are not too intense on these guys you can set the quantity and then the brightness and then vitiligo as always looks kind of nice body art we're going to go through this pretty quickly it's also funny that these guys they they do look fine without the beard right like I think they look okay again I think it's because of the extra detail that they have on the faces that's probably what it ends up being right because like with with the others it feels like there's something missing when they don't have the beard on it just feels like there's something missing but with these guys it's not that it's not the same it's like the beard is adding to it but it's not necessary to be there here we go so the colors on here lots of nice colors you can pick and then the intensity is just the opacity of the color is nice it's good it's good the White's so nice and bright there you go and then as I mentioned the opacity then piercings [Music] sorry I'm skipping through them quite quickly but uh you know it's like it's like this video is it's gonna be long it's gonna be long and I'd like to minimize the amount that I spend in here at least a little bit decent selections for the piercings eyes you can do heterochromia you know one color in the one one color in the other but if you'd like to keep it all the same you can and there are some decent looks here I mentioned this on the female side I'll mention it again I like the real estate on the eyes there's a lot of eye to look at here and when you zoom out the eyes are pretty big in their heads you know they look nice they look really cool you can see the color even when you zoom all the way out you can pick from all the eye colors in the game which will give you access to like the Demonic ones and the black eyes and stuff like that yeah if you want to tell a story then this will help you tell a story an exciting one at that makeup let's pick some makeup quickly and make sure the intensity is maxed yes there we go decent selection decent choices with the makeup you can set the color the metallic tint and the glossy tint very cool very impactful it can make some really cool effects on your character's face so if I take this color for instance I add metallic and glossy to it yeah it's really nice really nice but it obviously does distort the color a little bit at least it makes it look a little different so you don't always know what to expect with it see but yeah look at these colors and imagine there's a lot of cool things you can do with them and I really mean a lot of cool things I think combinations of nice skin colors hair colors face paints and makeup will sort of give you like a lot of pleasure you know there's cool stuff you can do here you are then the lips they have some decent sized lips these guys you can once again sit intellectant in the glossy tint you can also set the the tints without the colors which is kind of cool so you can just have the the glossy lips so like like you put lip gloss on you know and I'm sorry if I skip one or two colors here it's just that uh I've looked at these like 30 times already and I'm trying to minimize the time that I spend on them while still giving you a fair look at everything that's available so here for this guys here let's take a nice Brown five I'm thinking Brown five and for the highlights we'll go for a gray and I will show you the difference between highlights and Grain in a moment but for now we're going to show this you can see where the Highlight zones are now the white is the Highlight just know you can change that color to anything under the sun well maybe not under the sun most colors are there they have a decent selection and it looks kind of cool the gray in Works differently the grain comes from the roots up I'll show you how that looks on it well at the end on a different style I'll pick one and it can be combined with the highlights you can do like a really cool combination and most likely make something pretty fantastic for those wondering the hairstyles are shared between male and female and it's nice it's cool having them shed I think it's nice because there are Styles here that honestly could work quite easily on both there you go and if you want a more like substantial look at all of these if you want to see these hairstyles again and again and again I do look at them on every single race so just know that if you'd like you can just jump onto as an example the very first customization that I do which I generally spend more time on when I do this the first time I customize a character so in this case it would have been like the wood elves and the High Elves uh I I sort of go hard on it and I look at everything in great detail and then as I go through I go a bit faster so that's about it for the hair colors we'll zoom in quickly and I'll show you what it looks like there are some decent choices here I like them lots and lots and lots some like grounded in reality normal use were born with this hair color colors and then some brighter ones you got like The Fifth Element orange here I like it a lot the reds are nice too the pinks are beautiful these greens the cyans the aquamarines it's wow yeah it's wow it's cool it's cool let's go for the brown again and then the highlights as I mentioned there's a bunch they have recommended ones you can set the intensity it just sets the opacity it doesn't grow from one side to the other and what I mean by that is uh you know the highlights are different on every hairstyle but they are just there and then you can set up right to how dark they are but when you go for grain then it grows from The Roots out and your character it's sort of crazed naturally for the grain you can pick any color you like there's a bunch you can make your character gray orange which is not graying in instead it's orange in or yellow or green or any other color and it looks kind of bad sometimes but it can also look kind of good you can make something cool there beards they share colors with the hair so if you change the beard color here it will change your hair color as well you can't keep them separate uh they're cool they look good these guys look good with beards makes them look more dwarvish which is not a bad thing it's always good to look dwarvish I'll tell you that straight up there we go beards colors as I mentioned same as the hair colors you can choose anything over there and then the grain is the same as well you have to sit your grain up in the hair colors for that to work here we go let us have a look at the randomize oh god dude the faces are a Miss in a good way in a good way there's just so much going on they have the busiest Faces by far [Music] fantastic awesome awesome that's it that's what we're looking for rainbow hair dude nice there you go okay let's go back we are moving on to gnome oh and then comes Dragonborn dude I'm so excited so the Gnomes I really like the idea of them they have sub races I'll show you what they look like right now but I like the idea of the bigger head in the smaller body versus the halfling which is sort of it's sort of uniform all the way through I like it a lot so the body types is female they look really cool and then the male gnomes known to have a brighter hair I think small clever and energetic gnomes use their long lives to explore feyron's brighter corners and darkest depths they have slower movement speed 7.5 down from the nine and then gnome Cannon you have an advantage on intelligence wisdom and Charisma saving throws then your sub races Rock gnome most commonly seen gnomes on feyron Surface Rock gnomes are named as such for their hardiness and affinity for metal they can see in the dark with dark vision and then artifices law add twice your proficiency bonus to history checks Forest gnome that's a cool little beetle picture these guys even smaller than their cousins and twice as recusive Forest gnomes are a rare site in faerun they Master magic and craftsmanship in their distant idyllic Groves they are not actually physically smaller you will notice they just law wise smaller they start with a spell which is speak with animals it's I don't know if it's a cantrip or a spell but I think you can only use it once it says there until long rest gain the ability to comprehend and communicate with beasts it's it's awesome that's like it's a really it's a good spell to have in Baldur's guide I remember that from Divinity original sin and they may have dark vision as well 12 meters than deep gnomes you can see what that is more guarded than their surface cousins deep gnome survive in the underdog with dark vision and skillful stealth they have Superior dark vision at stubble and they have stone camouflage advantage on stealth chicks and they look like drow yeah it's like gnomish drow now before we jump into customization I'm just going to tell you that they are the same so you will notice the faces are the same all three of these have the same customization options the only thing is that when you jump in on deep gnome you will notice that you have different recommended skin tones that's it that's the difference so let's customize the females let's look what we have here identity male female non-binary and other you can select that I look a bit like Nicole Kidman don't I that's cool that's just how people refer to you in the world let's listen to the voices something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly it really does look like Nicole Kidman so those are the voices you can use male and female As You Wish let's look at the faces ah they have unique Styles don't they pretty unique Styles I dig it I think that gnomes are they're attractive in their own gnomish way very cool big noses big lips holy crap those are really big lips wow okay skin tones as I mentioned the drow gnomes I'm gonna call them the drow gnomes have brow skin tones to pick from on their suggested skin tones yeah and if you do randomize then it will randomize with those as well whereas on these guys if you randomize then it picks from the skin tones that are here it doesn't pick from the drowish ones that would be these extras here so you can select all the skin tones in the whole game if you'd like there's a bunch of different ones here but the recommended ones are these and these are the ones that will pop up when you click on randomize appearance there you go scoring let's have a look ugh I don't want to score this pretty face do we yes we do yes we always do scars tell a story man I'll take scars any day of the week maturity make Nicole Kidman look a little older freckles you can set the quantity and then you can set the intensity which is the opacity on them and then vitiligo yeah that looks better or worse if you change your skin tone you can be a you know a drow style color and then you can have the Vitiligo on there it Remains the Same color it's more impactful that way body art let's go through the tattoos quickly I'm going through them very fast I mentioned this every time I come through here because we do it every time I I go through them on every single race I try to give you a fair look at them a good look at them but I do go through them on every race so it takes a bit of time so if you want to look at it slow the video down or I want to say maybe just pause on the one that you want to see but yeah I make this with the idea that you guys are going to use the timestamps instead of watch the whole thing because if you do watch the whole thing good Lord uh well done well done I have been told a lot of people like to watch my character creation videos like at work or whatever in the background because they say it's like nice background noise and then they also say sometimes they watch it when they go into bed so they put it on the TV and then they just listened to me yak yak about characters uh it's cool I thank you guys for that then you can set the intensity of the tattoo as well piercings uh let me change the hair just to something that's out of the way jeez it looks really nice like the detail on these faces is kind of insane kind of insane there you go and then eyes you can do the basic colors or you can do heterochromia let me just untick this there you go once again like the halflings I feel like the Gnomes have nice eye real estate pretty big you know very cool you can see them from really far away they got that idea in the headlights look sometimes and then heterochromia as I mentioned you can do one one color one the other color but just keep in mind you can click on all eye colors then it gives you everything along with the suggested ones you can do the Demonic eyes as you can see over there the black eyes you can do anything you want uh it is I guess it's a little bit of a Pity that you can't do uh let's say like custom irises and custom Styles in there but I think it makes more sense this way you know that that would that would honestly complicate things a little more than I think most people would want too much it's too much there is such a thing as too much yes there is such a thing as too much uh when you needlessly add options to a character creation system then uh it ends up making things less fun instead of more so I'll just take this one and I'll show you quickly what the colors look like you can set the color here then you can set the color to be metallic tinted and glossy tinted and you can do both at the same time and that basically just makes it look awesome straight up sick it changes the color obviously so like keep in mind if I'm going through these colors here I'm just going very briefly to do them but if I'm going through these colors they will look different as an example if we go for like the hot pink and we make it metallic and glossy it ends up looking a little darker but also a little cooler you know I mean cooler to me it might not be cooler to you these are some of the colors you can choose you can make nice Golds with this you can make nice Silvers with the Grays it's it's really fantastic I love the system same thing for the lips exact same thing for the lips so you get to pick a really nice bright color here it's impactful it's vibrant it's it's full of life and then you get to make it metallic and glossy and that just takes it A Step Above plus Ultra you know there's a lot of cool colors here and all of them will look different when you throw that on and that on there you go that's it I know I'm a bit of a coward taking this off every time but it distracts from the hair you know we're moving on to the hair and it's distracting let's keep ginger on and then let's go for a highlight of black all right highlight intensity is maxed we're going to go through the hairstyles quickly you can see the black shades those are the Highlight zones that you're going to be able to work with some here has very little in terms of highlights some has a lot like this one and yeah you can change those colors to your heart's content you can do whatever you want these Styles look very no Mission and halflingy to me I like it a lot there's just so many cool oh man you know again the hair it's like I cannot get enough of it the here in this game is so nice and you know from like this view it looks slightly less impressive but when you like zoom in and you look at the details up close and personal you just you get in oh man you're getting so much it's so good so again oh this what the heck why does this look like it's a unique Style is that a unique Style I feel like I've not seen this or at least this comes in much tighter around the the face than on the other races dude if there's a unique style then hey wow Vindicated there's a reason for me to do this I don't know if it's Unique Style okay I'll look at it now we're gonna go into the Orcs maybe the Orcs have that style as well I'm gonna make I'm gonna make like a point of looking at it it just it caught me off guard I don't feel like I've seen it before it's weird oh I love these ones very cool the braids are always nice the balding styles are always necessary yeah this Nicole Kidman face man I really like it they've even got the cornrows everything's here the big frizzy styles good luck brushing that here okay so let's take one of these just because for fun the hair colors I will show you what they look like without the highlights on quickly there are a lot of really nice colors to choose from here foreign just me that thinks so but I do feel like the Gnomes and the halflings and stuff like that they are I think it's probably because of World of Warcraft I blame World of Warcraft for this but they are the ones that will use these bright hair colors uh more often and they are the ones that look more natural with these bright hair colors you know with the hot pinks and the crazy purples and stuff like that again it might just be a me thing but yeah then you get to put the highlights on as I mentioned each of them has their own Highlight Zone there are lots of colors here I won't go through each and every single one of them the highlights they have specific zones that they're in right so you can see the highlights at the top there so if I turn this off I'll show you how the grain works the gray in is from The Roots it comes out you can see it sort of spreads out from the roots and you can change the gray color to anything you like you can make it gray in a darker color a lighter color a red you do what you want and it's a nice way to just accentuate a little bit or to actually just gray it a little bit you know so there you go that's how it works I'm showing you some like you know proper no mesh gray in here there you go there you are I like it I like the hairstyles beards they are the same color as your hair they follow the same rules and yeah I mean it's interesting to see that the Gnomes can have beards that's cool I like it I like it [Music] and I mean the beards are great they are fantastic the way the Beards work is once again they share hair colors so you pick the hair color here then you get the same same as the hair colors that we looked at already and then the grain is also much the same and it's it's a good effect it's really nice right really nice and that's the end of it let's randomize now keep in mind once again the randomizer oh my God the randomization is uh it's gonna be using the defaults that they give you so like the serving suggestions so if you randomize on these guys you might not get too many of the drow colors but if you randomize on the drought dude some of these lips are so massive I really like it the nose and the lips there's so much detail on it as well but yeah so if you if you randomize here you won't be getting the drow skin tones and I'll show you what I mean quickly as I go out so if you pick the Deep gnomes and you edit the appearance here then you have these tones over here that will also be in the randomized pool so keep that in mind that's the only difference all the other stuff's the same that's the only difference right there now let's move on to the males we'll start with rock now again it's all the same really it's interesting that they start with a beard huh again not often that they do so your first choices here are the identity and the voice the identity is just how people refer to you in the game you can be male female or non-binary and other and then the voices something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its Aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly house something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped there you go a bunch of really cool voices I want to see so am I getting like Edward Norton vibes from this guy I always feel like every one of these faces is sort of modeled after someone famous it's not the case it's not but it sort of feels like it to me I don't know no it's not Edward Norton that's someone else entirely uh I can't say you guys might be able to help me out on this okay so faces they look good yeah not as detailed or as busy as the uh halfling ones but they're cool skin tones these are the suggested ones for specifically these guys if you take the Deep gnomes then you will get the extra skin tones on there and I'll show you what those look like in just a moment uh basically that's the only difference between them in terms of customization I'll show you now so if we go to all skin colors they get these ones extra which make you basically look like a little drow okay so that's how it works but you can pick anything you like you can go crazy with it so just know the world is your oyster scarring for whatever reason these faces all look like Bruce Williston here I don't know why I love Bruce Willis man okay maturity not so impactful on these guys freckles let's see Ah that's quite nice okay so that's the that's the opacity and that's the amount you can have like a few freckles or just like all of them and then vitiliga there you go body art this is the tattoos we're gonna go through these pretty quick I'm just gonna take the facial hair off for this because it's easier to see this guy's got quite a chin it's impressive [Music] pretty cool Styles here I mean like I've I've gone over these like 20 times already now and I still think that uh I sit here I still think that there's there's like potential for almost all of them I sit here thinking about like what I could do how I can make it work what can look good what's gonna look bad like what you know it's it's an endless thing and I have honestly after even going through every single one of these races so far I still have like really got no clue as to what I'm gonna do for my own character because no I've still not made my own character I I still do not have a character made lots of nice colors here I like how bright they are it's it's cool it's cool it's cool it's cool there you go piercings I wanted to say the piercings might be a little bigger on these guys because their faces are so much bigger but I don't know I don't know I don't know they might be yeah I mean maybe they are maybe they are but there are some nice piercings you can just slow the video down if you want to look at them in great detail uh then we're gonna move on to the eyes eye colors there's just the standard selection and then you can click on all eye colors and you can get sort of a better look at them I mentioned this often but the like the pupil in the and the style of of like the interior of the eye is quite different for each race and and some of them have more unique and interesting ones like the tieflings and I'm assuming the dragons will also have interesting ones but you can pick some of those here like the Demonic ones and you can sort of mix around whatever you like you can go for heterochromia with like a blue eye and the one and like a red demonica and the other one you know uh like this you can do anything that's kind of cool kind of cool makeup let's have a look let's just make sure the intensity is maxed some nice makeup here it would be kind of cool if you could like sit down at a at a mirror in the game and just change some of these things up it would be fun I think if you if you could change your makeup regularly or your face paint or stuff like that or your hair color and all that stuff it would be nice I do not know I like I'd love to hear if any of you guys know but that would be cool now as I mentioned uh there's a lot of different choices here for colors I've mentioned this on every single one that I've gone through but you can also metallic tint and glossy tinted which makes it look awesome fantastic uh it's it's really cool because you get like really nice sort of shiny looks you can make like nice Silvers and Golds with this obviously it changes the color a little bit so you must just keep in mind that the color will look different and yeah use your imagination you can probably come up with some really cool things where this is concerned again I I believe that this is the key to making like a really outstanding looking character one that looks just so much better than all the others but it's probably going to be the hardest thing to use so good luck to you guys I hope you figure it out because I probably won't uh here we go lips they have nice big lips as we've seen big lips Big Mouth big nose it's nice they are decent colors here there's some good stuff to choose from I like it as with the others you can put the metallic tint on the glossy tint on and then it looks completely different it's nice very nice next up here zoom out a little bit I'm gonna go for a let's go for like a green okay I just I'm trying to mix things up try a big different and then I'll go for like a gray white on the highlight and I'll turn the Highlight up so you can see the way I do this is I just show you where the Highlight zones are and I skipped through the hairstyles quite quickly so you can see what's what it's kind of cool yeah I mean like every now and then you miss like maybe a ponytail going down the back or something but I think if you've watched or looked at a couple of the customizations you'll probably get a feel for like uh you know enough of it to know which Styles you like and which ones you don't I also feel like the face shape and the head shape and stuff like that plays and leans quite heavily into like what works and what doesn't like obviously on the Gnomes you got a bigger head you've got more real estate to work with here certain Styles end up looking better certain Styles end up looking worse you know if you have something that covers the forehead a little bit I think it looks it ends up looking quite nice if you have something that shows the forehead more and has less hair there then it ends up looking a little extreme you know I don't know it might just be me that thinks that way but it is cool basically having all these different options they have some like they have like a slightly flatter area on top of their head as well like the top of their head is sort of bulbous in a way it's their big brains you know as we get to the end of the hairstyles here I'm gonna say to you that you must just keep in mind you can change the highlight color you can change the Highlight amount that's the opacity of the highlight and you can also obviously change the grain which we'll get to in just a moment so if I pick let's say this style if I take the Highlight away you can see you can change the opacity of it and then you can pick any color you like here lots of different colors here but first let me show you the hair colors I just picked a green so that you could sort of see you know it's starting to look a little bit like uh elrond or Legolas here funny how they can actually end up looking quite Elvish right it's just really big ears and and the nose and stuff like that but yeah lots of nice colors as always a fantastic selection I love the oranges and the pinks and the greens and the black love all the colors man it's really nice lots of nice colors here and then you can also mix them up by throwing in the different highlights and the different grain so if I take like as an example one of the yellows here and then I take a highlight that's sort of black you can throw it in and you can have those highlights in there but you can also do gray in and you can do grain of any color the grain starts at the roots and it goes out you can gray in red you can gray in like a black color you can gray in whatever you like but you can also grain gray which is sort of nice there you go facial hair not a huge minus like beards here but they are very very nice so probably probably the best beards I've seen in a game and they are locked into your hair color choices entirely so all the same basically what you choose here is what what shows so your grain your hair color everything it's all locked together there you go that's it you can sort of do what works for you and make it look the way you want it to look again a little disappointed that there's no stubble but it's fine it's randomized now I mentioned that when you randomize in on these guys instead of on the Deep gnomes you do not get the drow skin tones but that's again something that you can easily just Rectify yourself you can go and randomize on them if you want those dry skin tones in the pool of randomization options but that's the only difference in customization that is literally the only difference I was going to say it's less exciting but then it throws something like that at me it's not super exciting like some of the other randomizers felt better but let me show you what I meant so if I go into deep numb and I go to edit then your voice options your skin color options here will be slightly more varied and if I randomize here I will have the option of getting these ones in the randomization pool like this but that's it we are done with the Gnomes oh now we're moving on to Dragonborn here we go Dragonborn a proud race that values Clan and skills Above All Else once enslaved by dragons they strive to be self-sufficient not wanting to be beholden to anyone not even the gods ah this is sick this looks fantastic so they have a lot of sub-racers race features that can move nine per turn the sub races my God there's a lot of them the body types that's the female right there they they look pretty cool they look pretty cool and then the males are a little bit bigger more Burly looking uh let's have a peek so black despite no ancestral links to the mighty creatures these dragonborns share the charcoal coloration and a fizzling acrid breath of black dragons the black ones get acid breath and their sub race feature is uh the blood of ancient dragons flows through your veins you're resistant to acid damage and you're gonna see a theme as we go through here not just in how they look but in what they get as abilities and I'm going to mention this as I go through here as well when it comes to the customization they all have everything there's nothing unique to one of these they all just have serving suggestions as I keep mentioning they have curated choices that make sense for them so the black ones are black the blue ones yeah you guessed it they're blue so despite the ancestral links to Mighty creatures these guys share deep Sapphire scales and charged crackling breath of blue dragons they have lightning breath and they are resistant to lightning damage I'm not going to read this every time it's the same for each of them uh basically these guys have the fire breath the brass ones along with fire resistance the bronze ones have lightning breath along with lightning resistance which is the same as these so that's actually kind of interesting to me hmm but it's again for low reasons to have them all here the copper ones are acid breath once again the same as these guys gold ones fire breath fire resistance green is poison breath and poison resistance red fire once again fire resistance the silver dragons have frost breath and frost resistance and the white ones also Frost and Frost and as you've seen they all look different you've now seen them on female let's go through them on male quickly I want to mention this again I'm going to mention this a lot okay they have the same options so as I jump into the customization here now which I'm going to be doing in a brief moment you will notice that when we go in they give you a list of skin colors okay and these are the ones that they recommend for the black dragons right but you don't need to use these ones you can do anything you like okay so if you come in here I think you can do anything like let's just have a look quickly where is the color yeah there you go so you can pick any of them and it's all the ones that's on all the other sub races so you can pick the sub race you want for the breath you want but then you can change your color to anything you like so let's get started you can choose your identity male or female or non-binary and other that's just how people refer to you and then you can do the voices let's do the voices together it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can feel its Aura where to next [Music] what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Hells something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped there you go male and female voices on your female character you can pick what you want faces this is something completely different I'm so excited for this because we just went through a bunch of humanoid style races and we have one more coming up in the Orcs but this is something completely different look at the detail on these by the way the scales stuff like that it is it is beyond anything I've ever seen in the character creation uh system look at the eyes they're burning around the edges it looks so sick so the faces a pretty impactful Choice like this is probably the most impactful choice that you can make apart from the horns maybe but it's it's like a completely different look and feel I will mention that the style that you see here it changes a little bit but you do have all the same choices as you can see when I switch through them you have the same choices it just defaults to certain ones above others on the crest so we're going to pick the the standard face over here and then I will show you what I mean as you go through the crests here you will find the crests that are on the other ones as well do this so much detail here it is kind of insane this is sick wow so the Crest is basically your hair it's your hair and your horns combined oh my God you can be like a slick head you can have the slightly more um swamp dragon type look going uh and that's amazing wow wow wow wow that's it let's go for the first one and then we'll look at the chins Danny at the bottom I I I'm sure you guys know where the chin is I'll just zoom out a little bit so you can see it's a little fluff on the chin very cool it's just the extra basically on the chin just keep that in mind it's like you know parts of the chin will be decided by by each different thing that you pick here I think those two seem to be locked in place it's like you don't seem to get a different one there oh there you go yeah the faces okay so the chin is basically decided by your face and your chin Choice okay uh Jaws let's zoom in for this that's the decoration around the jaw oh that's those as well okay there you go it's the jaw sitting right oh that's really cool the spikes are so sick wow oh look at this oh dude this is so nice they've done such cool stuff with this you know it kind of puts to shame the uh Dragon customization in World of Warcraft I'll be wrong I like the race that they have in World of Warcraft but like it's just this puts it to shame with the amount of spikes and stuff you can have on here let's pick a bunch of spikes everywhere let's pick the spikiest boy we can make uh this one there you go spikes and horns horns and spikes dude there you go now let's look at the colors quickly so I mentioned this is but I mentioned again these are the recommended colors for the black dragons but you can look at all of them in one customization in other words here's the uh the blue ones for yeah you guessed it ah that is so cool dude definitely worth going through all the colors you guessed it for the blue dragons you can see the scales change as well as you go through the different colors here the the way they look change is quite drastically that's really cool wow oh look at that really nice some of them are more shiny than others different you have to go through all these options dude this is really cool wow look at that huh I wonder if that's to do with the makeup we'll see when we get there we'll see when we get there I'm just looking at the skin colors for now very cool some of these are just fantastic and again you can see sort of we're going through the copper now we're going through the gold which is like wow that's really cool and then there was silver which is also amazing it's got this really cool metallic look the scales are so well done then you can be a pink Dragon because why they heck not you can make your own dragonfly dub I love how the colors are changing it's got like a chromatic appearance you know oh the white is so cool wow like proper Ivory whoa look at the red there that's nice oh that's really nice too dude I'm gonna struggle I'm gonna struggle not playing these dragons if I don't dude wow oh look at that make a banana dragon okay okay uh let's go for the black quickly just or the white it's like all the silver or something I don't know let's go for black it's fine uh then we'll then we'll carry on and we'll move on to body art just looks like you have piercings okay it's on the eyes there it's a little difficult to see on this skin color so I'll just go for the white one and you can see them better it looks like it's a human piercings that they're just those on you these are new yeah that they just sort of moved in here and and sort of attached randomly to the dragon's face uh well more spikes I mean that's cool that's cool No One's Gonna complain about that yeah it is all the same ones okay eyes dude wow they look so nice I wish I could zoom in even further hey yeah I wish I could they look so good wow yeah with the like little the little Flames inside there it's the same as the tiefling ones by the way it's not the same this is like a dragon eyeball the tiefling one isn't it's more of a demon one but they got the same style of effect and they seem to have pretty much everything here then you can do all the eye colors if you want I I don't recommend it it's like you can do these but they're definitely not made for the dragons so the ones that I looked at first those are the ones you should probably go for yeah all right let's take the red ones because it looks really like intimidating makeup oh okay I did not expect that and it looks like we're gonna be able to set the tint up and everything let's just make it more intense that's the most intense it can be okay so it's pretty subtle uh and it does seem to be somewhat the same as the uh humanoid races once like it's somewhat the same as the other ones that we've seen but let's let's just check anyway opacity and the colors they don't translate so well I'm gonna like come out and say that it's like you can jump through these here and you can see they the you know the brighter colors do seem to do quite well but like the the darker ones they all look the same they're sort of smudge together a little bit however obviously if you take like a black dragon and when we randomize you'll see it if you take like a black dragon and you throw some lighter makeup on that might look nice and apparently you can change the lips let's have a look because why wouldn't the dragon put lipstick on right okay okay okay okay cool cool cool cool there it is right on okay you don't get to do the tints like you do on the other Clauses then our final option is detail any four choices you get to take the tail off completely you get to have this one more spiky one and an even fatter spikier one very cool very very cool now we're gonna randomize uh because yes so we are randomizing on black dragon right now and I wanted to mention this quickly and I'm going to do it and I'm going to show you this is basically just giving you a look at the different styles you can get on this all right on the dragon type but like if I jump into a different one now and I'm going to do it because that's part of the customization if I drop jump onto the white one and then we randomize then you will notice it's using the white tones and the white ones are really cool by the way there's a lot of like cool extras and accents and stuff that you can see and and the same is for all of them so if I go into these guys and I randomize on them same thing there same for red all the same options on all the dragons you just when you randomize only have that sit in the pool you can also see that there are there are different like amounts of of color on the body here as we randomize look at this the scales have like these different highlights on them so like instead of having the hair highlights the dragons seem to have scale highlights which is really cool you don't get to pick that directly but you obviously get to pick the color but you don't get to pick that directly it's really nice like these are these are these are cool looking they did a really good job with these now we're gonna jump over to the mail customization let's go for yeah I mean let's go for silver it's fine it doesn't really matter which one we go for uh as I keep mentioning to you guys the customization options are the same on both you get to basically choose any skin color you like if you just basically select the all skin colors option the curated list is always just selected based on the color of dragon you pick so first up identity male female non-binary or other that's how people refer to you then you have the voice options let's listen to them it's opened I wonder what's back there I can feel its Aura where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly health just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed can feel its aura there you go faces they are slightly different than the female ones I feel like the male faces they're so it's like maybe a little bit more brutish I mean I guess I don't know I don't know how to really describe it and I'll keep in mind we're on the silver one but we can change the the color to anything if we like let's look at the different crests here the faces all have the same Crest choices so don't worry you're not like missing out by taking a certain phase this is sick I actually kind of like the idea of the smooth hit but the smooth head looks way smoother and slightly I'm not going to say bitter but like somewhat different when you choose a lighter color okay let's take this for now and then let's look at the chin uh just keep in mind that the chin we're choosing that the Jaws these these horns here are from the Jaws we'll get to that afterwards this is just the straight bit at the front here [Music] okay Jaws let's take the chin off so we can see exactly what the Jaws are doing this is all the way around here you'll see all the different like plates and and horns and stuff are changing sharper ones it's nice how they have like this this combo of like spikes and horns and like chitin that looks sort of like a rock you have like an interesting combo where that's concerned where they have a bit of everything so let's take yeah this one is fine let's just put one of those on and then let's check the colors out so as I mentioned these are the silver colors but you are not limited in any way shape or form you can click on all skin colors then you can go through the black ones the blue ones and I will go through all of them for you guys quickly just because I feel like it's worth it on the dragons and because there are lots of different combos it's like you can see there's these like blue and pink combos here I know there's like red and white ones that look really cool uh there's this yellow and blue ones that look really nice they have Combos and it's like you picking your your hair and your highlights on the other races it's the same situation you can do some really cool stuff with this although you have less direct control over it you can still sort of pick something that's quite impactful I should probably zoom out though and show you just had it changes the the entire body as I go through it you can you can't see it that's actually why I've been doing all the customization on Barbarian because they have this outfit on that shows you a little bit of the skin again if you guys want to see like all the skin and you want to see the dragon genitalia then you're going to want to click on the link in the description that takes you to the not safe for work video nice colors lots of colors and you can see that these aren't just like after thoughts these aren't just like tossed in here to have more they customized each of these quite significantly like you can you can tell that each of these was done painstakingly I spent a lot of effort on this race that's for sure I like these these yellowy Goldy bronzy ready they look really nice okay uh we'll just go with one of the default ones again and we'll continue from there body art it's basically just your piercings oh God it's a really bad choice to look at piercings I I realize that now let's go with the the white one again so you can see the piercings then I'll switch back afterwards there you go it is all the same piercings that we had on the other races but they put them in different spots it's good use of the assets you know I find it must be really difficult to pierce the skin of a dragon right yeah yeah it's not a dragon dragon but like it must still be quite difficult okay let's switch back the skin color quickly eyes you can do heterochromia one in the one one in the other uh or you can just go for the same the default choices that they have here by far look the best on the dragons I've now seen that from the female side of the customization uh but you know you can choose any color still once I tick that you'll see and man the detail in the eyes is awesome I I kind of wish that the eyes were a little bit bigger or that I could zoom in further just to have a look at how that flame is burning in there but you have a lot of cool choices here and you can pick the non-default non-standard ones as well they just end up looking in my opinion A Little Less satisfying like some of them look you can see it's sort of the the Flames are gone and it just looks like a regular old eye I would say pick the dragon ones they look better right and then again header of Chromeo you can do sort of one one the other right makeup it is not super uh boom boom boom you know there's like a little bit of makeup you can see it but it's not the most impactful thing you can see some stuff's changing over here which I'm not sure about honestly but I I feel like you can probably just accentuate a little bit with this and it'll it'll be fine you know it'll be fine you get to choose the colors and the intensity here uh I I do feel like this however like apart from like the skin color this is a bit of an afterthought like it's it's nice and I do believe that when we randomize and we look at like the darker skin tones uh you will probably see some nice contrasty makeup but for the most part the makeup here it's sort of it's just a little extra you know and you can make it work I'm sure but yeah then the lips I feel like the lips it's some clown nonsense okay I don't know why there's lipstick on the dragons it's like you know it looks a little weird that's just my opinion maybe you like it maybe you can make something work with it you probably can I I bet that there are people out there who can make some really cool looks with with this kind of stuff I'm not one of those people I don't think I'll make this work okay finally we have the tail we zoom out for that you can have no tail uh skinny sharp tail spiky tail uh feather tail it's cool it's cool now for randomize we are randomizing the Silver Dragon right now right so as I randomize here just keep in mind that's what we're looking at you've seen different styles on the face very cool very cool Styles but we are just looking at the silver option so if we go back and we click on as an example the blue ones and then we randomize there then we're looking at the blue randomize all the options are available on all of them everything's there however however You're Gonna Want to like you know if you want to add here if you want to be a green dragon it might make sense to pick the green skin tones or whatever and when you customize you have to click that untick all or whatever and like you have to show all the colors and you can pick what you want there it's cool it's fine again you want to do it yourself jump in have a look pick what you like hopefully be satisfied with your character there you go dude damn Dragonborn huh really really cool really cool finally we have the half Orcs we don't actually have full Orcs here they look quite cool they look quite different we're going to start with the female customization but I'll first just read you the description here creatures of intense emotion High folks are more inclined to act than contemplate whether the rage burning in their bodies compels them to fight or the love fill in their hearts inspires Act of incredible kindness that's a good description nine meters per turn that standard base movement speed they have dark vision up to 12 meters also standard Relentless endurance if you reach zero hit points you regain one hit point instead of becoming downed [Music] Savage attacks when you land a critical hit with melee weapon your damage dice are tripled instead of doubled that's that's insane that's really really good uh cool okay so that's hard Fork we're going to jump into the female customization now and then we'll do the mail after that I've actually never looked at these identity you can pick to be male female or other that's just how people refer to you and listen to the voices where to next let's hope the locals are friendly one thing just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed there you go it's Aura those are the voices the heads the females are quite Square George it's like they they do have sort of you know it's cool it's cool you are picking your fangs your tusks I guess they're called with your face basically you'll see that some of them are larger some are smaller it's cool they look fantastic I'll take this one because I really like the the Fang sticking out there the skin tones that you could select between they are orcish suggestions that's these ones that we have right here and then you can also select all skin tones and you can sort of go for anything you like I feel like these first few rows those are the orchest suggestions and when you get down here this is sort of something else um I mean I realize it says here orcish gray but like when you get further down yeah here we go this is the neutral ones so like you now when you get down here you're moving on to like the human tones and and I'll be honest with you they're half Oaks so they could have these skin tones but it does look a little weird like when you have this it looks a little weird but again you can do anything and I do think that there are actually Greener greens so if you want to go for like a more World of Warcraft orc green then you can jump into all skin colors and you can like sort of find it down here you know you can do whatever yeah lots of choices here very cool very cool very cool for this let's go with like that one perfect scoring let's just take the hair like that it's fine scars I just want to hear out of the face they have like the half give Yankee nose you can see that they have the protruding bottom jaw it is very orcish here you can set the maturity let's just take the scar off the maturity doesn't seem to affect them quite as much but it does do a little bit you can see around the neck and around the top here freckles yeah there's freckles uh again more impactful when you have the freckles on a lighter skin tone but you can set the intensity and the quantity and then Vitiligo uh always good always nice body art these options are going to be basically the same as on all the others we knew that coming into it so I will go through it pretty quickly and then I'll just show you how the colors work on them as well pretty quickly once again I'm not sure if any of these are specifically orcish style paints but I'm sure some of them would work quite nicely right some of them there you go if we take this one we can look at the colors quickly I like the colors they're kind of kind of bright kind of vibrant very contrasty with the skin which is nice the whites are fantastic I don't know why the whites and the yellows just they make sense to me they look really cool and then piercings let's have a look here they are same on all the races the eyes these are basically the exact same choices as you would have on human or Elf or anything else but you can obviously get creative you can make your character possessed by a demon if you'd like uh I I do think looking at these eyes right now even though they are still bright and they look nice they are less bright and and smaller than some of the other races eyes you can activate all eye colors then you can go for the Demonic ones if you'd like there's no reason not to you know if you think they look really cool and you like the the style then you can go for that and then some of the other styles have like some slightly brighter colors or different colors in there it's cool mess around find something you like heterochromia you can have one on the one one on the other different colors it looks kind of cool you can be subtle with it or you can be like in your face with it makeup same as all the other races uh decent Styles except obviously the dragons we've now seen that they have different ones but decent Styles here and on a skin tone like the orcish one that we're looking at here obviously you'd want a brighter color with these you can select the color decent colors lots of choices and then you can also add a metallic tint or a glossy tint to it and I think it's kind of nice the metallic and glossy tints they obviously add a whole different thing to your character's style and they are well worth having a peek at I'm showing you how it looks like this because when you throw the metallic tint on and the glossy tint on then it changes the color entirely so you you obviously don't want to look at them like that because it gives you a bad representation of what the color is actually like but yeah I mean like I think with the orc skin tones the default ones that they give you you could probably make something really nice especially with that there you go then we move on to the lips lip tint they have nice big lips yeah dude yeah yeah yeah lots of real estate here so this is definitely something you want to look at I do wish we had customization over the tusks but that's obviously not a thing that we get here you get to pick different faces and they have different tasks and that's already like quite nice but that's like it's a very minor wishlist thing now much like with the uh makeup you can select the option over here to make it metallic and make it glossy it's very exciting you know you can do that the color is obviously a lot darker when you do that though all right moving on to the hair so I'll leave this on black red that's fine and then I will make the Highlight something like red red and we'll push the intensity up and then you can see the different highlight zones I mean the Orcs you can you can sort of lean forward but they have like massive muscles and stuff which is just really cool they've they've organized the hair a little differently here I don't know if it's like if it's organized differently because they suggest these Styles but I I guess it comes down to something like that anyway I'm just going through them pretty quickly here's that style that I thought was unique to gnomes it's not unique to gnomes it just looks different on gnomes but basically yeah on on Orcs much like in all the other races every one of these Styles can work it just comes down to you and how creative you can be uh with the character setup and the Highlight zones I mean they make it really easy to do some pretty spectacular stuff however spectacular doesn't always mean it works you know and if you're going for like a low friendly look that makes it even harder that makes it even harder I don't know because these guys don't have sub races uh you know you like you and they half walks they're not full Orcs you sort of you sort of have a bit more freedom I suppose uh when it's half anything you seem to have a bit more freedom but yeah it's still gonna be up to you to make something really really look good I I do wonder I wonder if larion will release ever a like infographic of of like what characters what races what classes are the most popular I'd love to see so let's pick uh this one and then I'll show you quickly how this works first things first I'll just take the Highlight off and then I will show you the different colors of hair these are the same hair colors as on every other race that has here and it's no different in any way these are the same it looks the same it's like they just put the hair on the character that's that doesn't look any different on the orc but obviously we are looking at all the customization options here and I'm showing them to you obviously with the combination of the different skin colors you can make different visual styles that can be aesthetically pleasing I do feel like the Orcs look nice on the brighter colors as well I mean I said before I really like gnomes but like yeah Orcs look good with bright colors too you pick a color here then you can throw the Highlight on of your choice let's take green for now highlight can be anything you want red and green it's like a big red flag for me being colorblind I can't even see the red in the hair here but like whatever you can do any color highlight there's a lot of different choices for the highlights you can sort of pick and choose what you want to see and then if the Highlight is not what you want you can also do grain the gray in is a more natural style where it comes from the roots out it's kind of cool kind of nice and you can gray in any color any old color you want you can throw it on there and it looks kind of cool there you go I'll put some some gray in there and we can use that for the facial hair would have been cool if like I mean I know it wouldn't have been cool I mustn't say it would be cool if any specific race had options unique to them but like I feel like the Orcs could have had some unique beards you know looking at this I actually think that Orcs might have lesbians yeah unless they just shuffle them around a bit I think the Orcs might have less beards that's very weird maybe there are certain ones that they cannot use yeah the handlebar mustache is gone uh you know there's a mustache like this but just the mustache it's gone it's not here that's very weird what kind of choice is that to make huh yeah dude I've been looking at this for a long time I know it's not there you can grow yourself a little bit if you'd like it's all tied to the hair color so if you pick the one or the other it changes that now let's randomize oh man what the heck funny that the handlebar mustache is gone that's really weird huh I will say this again about the randomization system I really love that they don't throw a beard on every character that's female like that they are a little sort of you know they're apprehensive to throw beards in on every character even though if you truly randomize it then it would be put in basically beards on 80 of the rolls but because it's female they don't do that they just put it on some so there you go half orc female customization we're gonna jump back now and do the males that'll be our final customization the males have wow dude like proper Jugheads like really big ass heads I like it your first choice here is your identity you can do mail you can do female you can be other that's just how people refer to you the standard he she or they and then let's look at the voices where to next hmm what was that let's hope the locals are friendly Health something just woke up down here be wary this place is trapped it's opened I wonder what's back there more of those wretched things there's magic keeping this chest sealed I can where to next hmm what was that so I realized that these voices are like curated choices something just woke up down they have the same voices for all of them but I'm gonna say it these aren't really orcish voices it's like it's like they're definitely not all that orcish wow this is a really cool orcish face huh I bet one of these looks like Shrek if some of them have bigger Jaws like more chiseled you're looking like a David cool thought Orca and these are like a Lord of the Rings Orc basically this guy's got some nice stubble again it's very rare that you see stubble on here let's take just take this one yeah let's take this one skin tones they give you a very big selection on Orcs again I I mentioned this on the female side but like these are the choices that they want you to pick these are like proper orcish tones okay but when you get lower down it sort of starts getting a little muddy you know you can make gray Orcs yes you can make like the the darker Grays and stuff like that the greens yes orchest green is a thing um but when you get to the neutral tones it sort of starts looking to me like these are just sort of the human tones that they're through in here for completion's sake and this is just because again you're playing a half orc anyway you can unlimit this you can make yourself a drow orc you could be half drow half orc you can make yourself half marshmallow half walk if you'd like you can do anything you like the game gives you all the freedom in the world you can make a foul fiery orc if you want to that's cool yeah they got the greens and the Reds there everything's there let's take the orcish green but a lighter one there we go scars gonna be hard to see the scars on this face but you know that's part of the point right and this is what you get when you play orc male again I believe that the voices really aren't that orcish I think they should have had a more like hardcore voice in there maturity yeah I don't see this doing much it doesn't it really doesn't too many wrinkles already freckles also once again not really doing all that much [Music] the Vitiligo is going to look nice yeah it's very cool okay body art we're gonna make this white so that you can see it nicely just mixing things up a little bit and we'll go through here pretty quickly honestly fantastic tattoos this is the last time I'm going to be looking at them I'm on the last customization section of my video and and and for real looking at them right here I like it I think that they give you so much to make awesome characters really awesome characters you just gotta be creative you know it's got to be creative now the color God please don't be creative with this though uh the colors when you have a darker skin tone obviously the darker colors sort of mix in like this one for instance you can do some cool stuff with this you could make like Arnold Schwarzenegger from predator or whatever uh yeah yeah do some cool stuff with this but I mean the more impactful it looks will probably be the brighter ones you can set the intensity which is the opacity up and down and it's cool there you go turn it off piercings all the same ones as the other races they obviously look different on the Orcs some of them are positioned slightly differently because obviously the ones that go in the lips and in the ears and stuff will be in different places there you go eyes very small eyes piggish little eyes you can't really see them all that well probably of all the Races they have the least impactful gaze even though they look kind of scary and hardcore and whatever you you can't really see the eyes when you zoom out a little bit you can't do demonic eyes and any other eyes you want but again their brows sort of overshadow everything so no matter what you pick here it's kind of hard to see heterochromia you can do one in the one one in the other if you'd like uh yeah it's up to you I suppose makeup let's just make sure the intensity is up and let's choose a white or gray here quickly let's have a peek it actually feels kind of smaller on the Orcs because their eyes are so small so like you get less surface area to work with I feel like I need to zoom in even further so with the colors for the makeup you can pick through a bunch of different cool options and then you can also make them metallic and glossy it's sort of hard to see when you have on on the darker tones but it is a very nice effect especially if you take the brighter colors it's very cool very very cool how it looks there you go I think you could do some pretty unique stuff with Hawk I'm going to say that multiple times as I go through here and probably when we randomize we're going to see some of the unique stuff that you can't do but like really the faces and stuff I I hope Orcs sees some gameplay that's all I'm saying it's like it's really cool there's a lot going on here and and if you really spend some time I bet you can uh make the orc lovers out there proud here so we're gonna have a quick peek I will put the hair color on let's say a white color and then I'll put the highlights on black and we'll push the intensity up so you can see where the Highlight zones are I do wonder if we are limited on the orc oh yeah of course so maybe they don't have the handlebar mustache mustache because the tusks might get in the way yeah it's possible Right it's quite possible some of these actually make this guy look like an actual granny I I don't know man I don't know I think it's kind of hard to pick a good hairstyle on orc maybe you guys can find a good one but I feel like the shorter Styles make the orc look a little bit weird it's like that orc that you had as a advisor in Pathfinder King maker he had like regular hair he was a hard Fork as well but he had like regular hair human hair on an orc and it looked out of place you know so it ends up looking these these ones like these these mohawki uh quiff type things are kind of nice they they look good they make sense and I feel like the the cornrows and stuff like these ones they also make sense but but it's going to be kind of hard you don't want to pick a regular one because it looks a little out of place like I said it's like when your orc looks like he's going to court it's it's kind of weird you know but maybe I think most of what's looking weird here is actually the color right the color that I've got here is Mega tacky on an orc with the green so the combination is just kind of weird so if I'm gonna pick one I'm gonna I'm gonna pick this one I think it looks nice then when you go through the colors I'm going to take the Highlight off quickly and show you what it looks like but when you go through the colors here you have all the colors at your disposal every color available for here and then in highlights you have even more on top of that and the highlights they give you the more intense colors so they'll give you here as an example you get a a black neutral which is this which is a fantastic color it's a good black and then you get the white neutral here as well but you know when you go to the highlights you get a much darker black and that darker black will obviously give you more control over making your characters here look like a Deeper Shade of of black and it's the same for all the others it's like in the highlights they'll be a darker red there'll be a darker or more vibrant green orange or yellow or whatever and that's cool uh you know it's it's part of the cool design that you can make and it's it's some it's a reason for you to try and think outside the box a little bit as an example here's the black on black it can make it look cool yeah for the highlight colors there's like a whole lot you can do anything here and then you can also set the intensity of it how much of it gets covered so I'll leave it to you guys to go crazy there then you can gray it you can gray your hair it comes from the roots up and it's kind of cool yeah it's good it's good grain you can change the gray color to Red to green to blue to purple to whatever you like and you can make some creative stuff happen I'll put some gray in there just for the Beards that we're going to look at now and I'll leave it at that [Music] beards well it seems like we do have a couple of options less it might just be one option list to be honest I'm not entirely sure but you can see here that the handlebar mustache is not here on orc but the other beards and there's maybe one big beard that's also not here I'm not sure but the other beards they do look fantastic like it looks good on orc and there you go you can set the grain intensity here and the the hair color is locked as I've mentioned let's randomize fantastic very nice very nice good randomization the faces are varied and different it's yeah this is this is what I'm talking about man Boulder Skate 3 character creation pretty cool that's it we are actually somehow finished with our customization that's it I I cannot believe we've come to the end of it we've only been here for like what 100 hours that's amazing and what a trip it was dude there's so much cool stuff so much now as I jump onto the classes right I need to mention a few things before I get started so important stuff really important stuff when you jump in with the help of an NPC you can actually reset a bunch of your class stuff they said that I want to lock you into your class choices if you regret it you can actually change afterwards there's also multi-classing once again that's as you jump in a little bit later there's even an achievement I think for multi-class in every single class in one playthrough which is just insane then there are subclasses for every one of these classes a lot of subclasses they are not all available here this is important stuff to know so know all of that when you jump in the subclasses I'm going to show you and I'm going to give you a quick just preview of what day is I realize it's sort of like it's spoiling things but it's good to know as you jump in in here so as we go through it just know that each of these has a subclass or two or three or five the subclasses that you have to choose from are for barbarian you have Berserker wild hot and wild Magic for Druid you have and yes I'm not going through the correct order here land Moon and Sport Druid for fighter you have Battle Master Eldritch Knight and Champion for Ranger you have Hunter Beastmaster and gloomstalker for rogue you have Arcane trickster assassin and Thief for sorcerer there's wild magic which is the same name as the Barbarian one draconic bloodline and storm sorcery for Bard there's Laurel and sword for monk you have open hand Shadow and four elements for warlock you have Archway fiend and great old one paladins have ancient devotion Vengeance and oath breaker clerics have knowledge Life Light nature Tempest trickery and War and then finally Wizards have AB duration conjuration divination enchantment evocation necromancy illusion and trance mutation so let it be known that it's a pretty intense class customization and selection system on top of all that there's multi-classing so keep all of that in mind that's the class in production out of the way keep all of that in mind as we go through here all right now let's have a quick look let me just have a peek at the classes okay let's have a look first up Barbarian this is the one we've been looking at all video long you can click over here for details and then it tells you the weapon proficiencies and I will once again bring your attention to the right hand side over here it's quite important and I will bring this up every time I open a class but it's quite important because you can see basically what your totals are here what your proficiencies are what your skills are and so on and so forth which again can be customized by the way so as we jump in here Barbarian strong embrace the wild that hides inside Keen instincts Primal physicality and most of all an unbridled unquenchable rage you can see the proficiencies simple weapons martial weapons light armor medium armor Shields this gets Modified by your race selection obviously because that comes into play actions they get rage yeah I mean that explains itself I'm not going to give you the description for each of these actions you get it you get it right class features an armored defense so this is an important one I will read to you while not wearing armor you add your Constitution modifier to your armor class where in heavy armor impedes your rage so this is like more for a light armor kind of thing they actually say it here so when you when you go to I think where is it is it on rage I'm not I'm not entirely sure but I think they allow light armor on on Barbarian and that's pretty cool uh it's it's fantastic I think barbarian's probably my top choice right now for class I I just I don't know I feel like I feel like smashing things so yeah uh keep in mind the Barbarian subclasses as I mentioned are the Berserker the wild hot and wild magic right keep that in mind bod and yeah when you switch to them it has this cool little animation you know music is more than a fancy it's power through study and Adventure you've mastered song speech and the magic Within the details here simple weapons hand crossbows long swords Rapier short swords and then light armor the Pod subclasses are law Valor and swords you pick those later as I said and then with Bard you will notice that you have some choices here that you can make not all the classes have choices you'll see there's cantrips spells and starting instrument the cam trips that you get are vicious mockery and blade Ward the Spells you start with healing word dissonant Whispers Tasha's hideous laughter and heroism and you can choose those over here these are the default ones and then your action is bodic inspiration that inspires an ally to do bonus damage on the next attacks or ability checks or saving throws well bonus damage bonus dice bonus rolls for bod again it goes deeper you can jump into cantrips here and you can pick what you want you get to pick two so if you take those away you can pick two different ones the choices are vicious mockery blade Ward magehand true strike friends Dancing Lights light and minor illusion then your spells this is obviously something that that you can see here you can change your kind of selection by choosing spell from the list below they don't use spell slots and because that will but the Spells you choose your spells here from the list below they require spell slots to cost unless a feature States otherwise so your spell traces are animal friendship which is obvious like that's we have to take that one Bane charm person cure wounds I love that bods can heal disguise self dissonant Whispers fairy fire featherful healing wood heroism longstrider sleep speak with animals Tasha's hideous laughter and Thunder Wave again if you want to go through those yourself just slow it down pause it you know look at at basically what there is and and take it from there you can also see when you go onto the Spell section the kentrupt section here tells you what you use for your spells which is charisma your spell save DC and your spell attack that's just the base as you starting out then on board you get to pick your starting instrument fantastic choice to make here you pick the instrument you'd like to use it'll influence the soundscape when you cast spells it can be changed later by equipping a different instrument the drums [Music] flute the loot the liar and then the best choice the violin [Music] perfect that's it for Bard next Up's cleric these guys have a lot of choices and customization to make their details as you can see over here simple weapons morning Stars light armor medium armor and shields clerics are representatives of the gods they worship wielding potent Divine magic for good or ill and yes you can you can do it for good or ill cantrips I'm gonna show you the cantrips when we get there and spells I will I'm not sure you can choose the Spells uh I'm not sure but here's resistance guidance and sacred flame and then for spells there's God involt healing word inflict wounds Shield of faith and Bane I do think that the spells are probably chosen by your subclass we'll have a look right now class features level one spell slots unlocked you gain two level one spell slots which are restored on Long rest and then domain spells that's the domain that you choose which we will have a look at in just a brief moment the cantrips your choices here once again they're influenced by wisdom and the ones you have to choose or thormaturgy sacred flame guidance resistance light blade wood and produce Flame cool you get to pick three of them which is good subclasses as I mentioned they actually get to pick their subclasses right here in character creation which is awesome you have life domain that's the domain of life it's an aspect of many good deities offering spells that protect and restore the Mind Body and Soul uh this gives you extra proficiencies when you click on it so live domain gives you heavy armor proficiency and then the feature is your devotion empowers your healing spells when causing the healing spell the target regains additional hit points equal to two plus the Spells level there you go lights domain it's offered by deities of Justice majesty and primordial flame providing spells that dispel darkness and harm the undead you get an extra cantrip here which is light and then your light domain spells burning hands and fairy fire and the subclass feature is Warden Flair Shield yourself with Divine Light use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attacker that's pretty cool trickery domain the domain shared by the wicked chaotic and mischievous alike those who Channel trickery specialize in deception and illusion magic the action is Blessing of the trickster Grant another creature advantage on stealth chicks that's pretty cool prickery domain spells is charm person and disguised self you will see that these don't have any extra proficiencies that you get on them knowledge adaptable and Android Android in all manner of languages and skills your mind is an intellectual cup brimming with exquisite knowing the Spells are command and sleep pretty nice nature domain and you will see when you when you switch through these extra things pop up it's kind of crazy that you get an extra cantrip Choice over here you embody this character creator is just huge you embody the vast Viridian power of the natural world and Avatar of the subtle Divinity of fruitful avian migration Woodland silence and the landslides roaring Fury you get chile okay okay I hate that word so much right now I can't say that I'm sorry I apologize you get heavy armor on this one as well as a proficiency and you get this spell right here which makes your star for Club magical cool man speak with animals comes by default and animal friendship also comes you can convince them not to attack you then your feature is you learn a druid cantrip and become proficient in animal handling nature or survival that's these ones over here that's the the one that I couldn't pronounce poison spray produce flame this one and Thorn whip pretty cool pretty cool very nice you may have realized I'm skipping the deities right now I'm gonna go there after Tempest your faith has made you the very Thunder that Quakes the black firmament the lightning coursing through the veins of a terrible storm martial weapons and heavy armor on this one which is cool Thunder Wave is your one spell and the other one is fog cloud and then your subclass features strike back at an attacking creature potentially dealing 2 to 16 lightning damage on a failed saving throw you deal half of a 2 to 16 damage roll that's kind of cool alright war domain fortified by holy Zeal your brandish an arsenal of sacramental savagery to use against those you deem unrighteous martial weapons heavy armor once again Divine favor as a spell and shield of Faith this is sort of more of like a fighter cleric and then War priest when you make an unarmed or weapon attack you can spend a war priest charge to make an additional attack as a bonus action that's really cool okay then the final choice on clerics is your deity this is Flavor it's flavor it's all flavor and I'm Gonna Leave This to you guys to discover but I will tell you what they are you got Saloon Bahamut tempus and there's a little description down here tier Helm ATA mistra ogma kilimov that's uh coralon Lauren Gall glitter gold a love fantastic grimsh Tiamat illustrate lavender Telos tamura and Maliki cool this is Flavor I'm sure it'll come up in conversation and maybe it'll give you some extras every year like here and there that you could use but it is Flavor so do not worry too much about that choice maybe try pick something that lines up with the subclass that you pick I suppose druid Druid is next up he Druid subclasses you don't get to pick here they are land Moon and spores druid's channel the elemental forces of nature and share deep kinship with animals Mastery of wild shape allows them to transform into beasts from all over the realms and apparently it also allows them to do questionable things while they are beasts so you don't get to pick your Spells at the start here but you do get to pick your cantrips so let's look at the Spells first ice knife Thunder Wave cure wounds healing wood enhanced leap and then your feature you're getting two level one spell slots which are restored of the long rest can trips guidance poison spray produce flame resistance this one again shillelag and Thorne whip wisdom is your spellcast in Choice spell save on DCS and spell attack I didn't show you guys this they use clubs daggers javelins maces quarterstaffs scimitars sickles and Spears light armor medium armor and shields can be used pretty cool yeah Druids man Druids what a concept I like the idea Fighters on fighter you subclasses are Battle Master Eldritch Knight and champion Fighters have mastered the art of combat wielding weapons with unmatched skill and wearing armor like a second skin they have a big selection here simple weapons martial weapons light armor medium on my heavy armor and shields then the action is second wind it's a helium spell then you get to pick your fighting style this is just an extra basically I want to say it it should actually add like the weapon that you get to start with but it looks like it doesn't do that what it does is you gain uh plus two to the one that you select so to range weapon attacks you gain plus one to Armor class while we're in armor when you are wielding a melee weapon that's not two-handed or versatile in one hand and no weapon in the other you deal additional damage that's dueling great weapon fighting is well great weapons when you roll a one or two damage die for an attack with a two-handed melee weapon that die is re-rolled once protection when you have a shield impose disadvantage on the attacker against your abilities when you're within 1.5 meters you must be able to see them and then finally two weapon fighting that's dristo Urban when you make an attack with your orphaned weapon you can add your ability modified to the damage of the attack there you go cool Fighters obviously always a fantastic choice monk this is the newest addition to the game Channel your Cosmic Enlightenment by deftly dodging and efficiently dis M disassembling disassembling your foes through stunning strikes and a whirlwind of Martial attacks simple weapons and short swords but I think that for the most part you actually use your fists I'm not sure or maybe staves it depends on the subclass that you pick the subclasses are open hand Shadow and four elements your actions Flurry of Blows punch twice in quick succession and then your class features key Keys the magic that flows through all living beings you can use it to exceed your body's physical capabilities unarmored defense martial arts dexterous attacks martial arts decks depth strikes and martial arts bonus unarmed strike very cool lots and lots of different stuff once again changes based on the subclass that you pick Paladin fueled by the oath you swore to uphold Justice and righteousness you are a Beacon of Hope in Dark Times oh I see you actually get to pick your subclass here as well fantastic I thought it was just the cleric and the and the Warlock details simple weapons martial weapons light medium and heavy armor and shields lay on hands always a nice ability and the healing ability Divine sins there you go you get an advantage on attack rolls against celestials fiends are Undead and then finally your class feature Channel oath charges one you're getting the ability to channel the power content in your Paladin oath which you can use to fuel certain actions so that will come into play with the subclasses right both of the engines you fight on the side of light in the cosmic struggle against Darkness to preserve the sanctity of life and the beauty of nature cool you get healing Radiance that's a healing ability for you and all allies and then you get the oath of the ancient tenets I'm not going to read all of this for you but each class gets a different one and they each give you something special so you can check it out right there and then we'll move on oath of devotion following the ideal of the night in shining Army you act with honor and virtue to protect the weak and pursue the greater good holy rebuke that grants an ally a vengeful aura that deals one to four radiant damage that's pretty cool and then you have the oath of devotion tenets these are obviously important now you should pay attention to them I actually thought you picked your deity on Paladin as well but apparently you don't that's just the Oaths that you swear and they know the Vengeance you've set aside even your own Purity to right wrongs and deliver Justice to those who have committed the most Grievous sins inquisitors might that's your ability here you and allies weapon attack deals an additional two radiant damage and you can Daze enemies for one turn and then there's your oath of Vengeance tenants pretty cool next up Ranger Rangers are unrivaled scouts and trackers hone in a deep connection with nature in order to hunt their favored prey the cantrips you don't get to pick here but you do get to pick your favorite enemy and natural Explorer you get true strike and your Beast Tamer ability is find familiar which is kind of cool simple weapons martial weapons light armor medium armor and shields favorite enemy uh I'll tell you that the subclasses on Ranger are Hunter Beastmaster and Gloom stalker which sound really cool favorite enemy this is studying the tactics of a certain creature has granted you a set of abilities that's useful in a variety of situations so basically these choices they change what you get what you start with there's Bounty Hunter Proficiency in investigation creatures you hit within snare and strike either ranged or Mali have a disadvantage in their saving throws a keeper of the veil you specialize in hunting creatures from other planes of existence Proficiency in Arcana and can cause protection from evil and good and then you get this as you see and you get the find familiarability Mage breaker that one explains itself history of battling spellcaster's Proficiency in Arcana and cast true strike there you go uh Ranger Knight which is to say probably heavier armor what you've sworn to serve crown or nation and seek to bring its foes to ruin gain Proficiency in history and armor with heavy armor oh that's kind of cool and then Sanctified stalker sacred flame and again find familiar these guys swore to hunt the enemies of a holy or druidic order you gain Proficiency in religion and can cause sacred flame then your natural Explorer years of travel in the wild have made you particularly attuned to beasts or Adept at surviving in certain environments Beast Tamer you've cultivated strong bond with animals you can cause find familiar without expending the spell slot okay there's your sacred flame cantrip Urban tracker expert navigating wild within the city proficiency at sleight of hand these are just more extras basically Wasteland Wanderer called endless days survive in this La Tundras resistance to cold damage endless days in Forbidden deserts resistance to Fire and then finally resistance to poison that's you in the swamps okay next up Rogue the subclasses on Rogue okay and trickster assassin and Thief with stealth skill and uncanny reflexes Rogues versatility let them get the upper hand in almost any situation they have sneak attack and sneak attack that's million ranged they can use Simple weapons hand crossbows long swords rapiers short swords and light armor as I mentioned the subclasses all kind trickster assassin and Thief pretty cool no other choices here sorcerer this one's gonna have a lot of stuff that you can look at here uh pretty cool I see they can also pick this up class okay okay so I was a little wrong with my with my earlier predictions but that's kind of cool they are natural spellcast destroying on inherent Magic from a gift or a bloodline weapons are daggers quarter staffs and light crossbows and that's basically it then your canned trips we're not going to go through them here we'll go through them there the Spells once again also same thing class feature you gain two level one spell slots which are stored off the long wrist and you will see the subclasses down there cantrips that we have to select from

good Ray of sickness Shield sleep Tasha Sidious laughter Thunder Wave and witch Bolt and that brings us to the end that's actually the final class fantastic really really really cool right so the backgrounds here we are these are important these actually give you skills they are not only for RP purposes they are not only to set up the backstory for your character but they give you different skills each of them gives you a little bonus gives you sort of a head start in certain skills and I'm pretty certain there will be one of these for each and every class that you pick or character that you make that will sort of fit I do find it a little weird sometimes that you can pick them all on all the different races it's like kind of weird to pick a let's say Dragonborn urchin strange yeah it can still happen obviously it makes sense that any of it can happen but it still feels kind of strange regardless let's jump in and let's have a look starting with the acolyte you've spent your life in service to a temple learning sacred rights and providing sacrifices to the gods oh God you worship serving the gods and discovering their sacred Works will guide you to Greatness this gives you insight plus three and religion plus one you can see what these abilities do this is read people in situations detect lies that's a pretty important one by the way and this one is recognized deities understand holy rights I don't know if that's as important you only get one then you get three on this one but still uh bonuses are bonuses charlatan you're an expert in manipulation prone to exaggeration and more than happy to profit from it bending the truth and turn in allies against each other will lead to Greater success down the road this gives you deception plus two lie and cheat manipulate the truth sleight of hand plus three wield Nimble fingers steal stuff that's fantastic like I mean that's it right there huh that's what this game is about looting as much as you possibly can that helps you pick locks and pockets and disarm traps sounds like a useful one I mean deception is yeah that's cool Criminal you have a history of breaking the law and Survive by leveraging less than legal connections profiting from Criminal Enterprises will lead to Greater opportunities in the future this gives you deception once again that gives you plus two and this gives you stealth state of sight melt into the Shadows helps you with hiding I love the way this works right I love the way that they give you stealth they tell you it's a dexterity ability uh skill and they may give you the description quick and simple easy peasy same with this deception charisma can sort of easily just see what exactly works with the class or the character that you build in Entertainer you live to sway and subvert your audience engage in common crowds and high society alike preserving art and bringing Joy to the hapless and downtrodden heightens your charismatic aura this gives you acrobatics keeps your balance land on your feet help you resist being shoved plus three on that and performance that's a Charisma one entertain your audiences command the stage pretty cool next up folkura you're a champion of the Common People challenging tyrants and monsters to protect the helpless saving innocence in imminent danger will make you and your Legend grow this gives you animal hand in past three influence animals pit all of the dogs that's awesome survival stay alive in the Wilds track pray that's wisdom and that's uh wisdom so these are both wisdom this is probably the choice that you will make for a ranger or something like that it just makes sense right Guild autism your skill in a particular craft has earned your membership in the Mercantile Guild offering Privileges and protection while engaging in your art repairing and discovering rare artifacts and crafts will bring new inspiration Insight plus three we've seen that already and persuasion turn on the charm cooks and cajole these are wisdom and Charisma respectively and we have Noble you're raising the family among the social Elite accustomed to power and privilege accumulating renowned power and loyalty will raise your status this gives you history that's plus one remember the past of the world and its people and persuasion plus two cool all right Outlander you grew up in the Wilds learning to survive far from the Comforts of civilization surviving unusual hazards of the wild will enhance your prowess and understanding this gives you Athletics plus five wow stay fit to perform physical stunts helps you shove and resist being shoved survival plus 3 that's wisdom and this one was strength stay alive in the Wilds track pray Sage you are curious and well read with an unending thirst for knowledge learning about rare law of the world will inspire you to put this knowledge to Greater purpose this gives you Arcana recognize magic interact with Enchanted items that's intelligence and it's plus one and then history plus one Soldier you're trained in Battlefield tactics and combat have been served in a militia mercenary company or officer Corps show smart tactics and bravery on the battlefield to enhance your prowess this gives you Athletics plus five we've seen that already and intimidation plus two be a bully threaten and induce fear perfect perfect that's Charisma and that's strength urchin after surviving a poor and Bleak childhood you know how to make the most out of very little using your street smarts bolsters your spirit for the journey ahead that gives you a sleight of hand plus three and stealth plus three fantastic these are all amazing and again I do feel like if you going through this whole creation and this whole character customization system here you'll find one of these that works for you so we're now in the second to last part of this part of the character creation system there's one more part after this which is kind of crazy uh we're gonna move on to the abilities and skill proficiencies there's a lot in here I've been here for how many hours now already and it just keeps going and I love it all right so these are your skill points basically your stats your ability points as they call it in Boulder's Gate uh strength dexterity Constitution intelligence wisdom and Charisma we're going to go over them now there's a star on your primary ability it's the most important one for your class they put it there automatically so you know which is best you can use recommended that'll just spend them for you that'll put all the points where they should probably be or you can min max a little bit by putting your own points in yeah then you get to assign bonuses these two bonuses you get a plus two bonus on one so you can put a plus two bonus over there you get a plus one bonus you can put that on maybe Constitution yeah whatever depends on what you want what you build in and so on and so forth strength muscle and physical power it affects your Effectiveness with melee weapons and also determines how far you can jump and how much you can carry then you can see the saving throws at the bottom there how much come from the proficiency how much come from the strength dexterity that's agility reflexes and balance it affects your Effectiveness it's ranged and finesse weapons also affects your initiative in armor class yeah cool cool cool cool cool cool cool Constitution that's stamina and physical endurance affects your maximum hit points you can actually see them going up and down on the right hand side over here intelligence memory and mental power improves spell costing for wizards if you were a wizard the star would be over here instead of up there wisdom senses and intuition improve spellcasting for clerics Druids and Rangers I personally wouldn't put 12 here if I was playing a barbarian I'd put these somewhere else like I'd put the strength in I'd put the constitution in and I'd most likely put a bit in dexterity because that's also kind of important and then finally Charisma force of Personality improves spellcasting for Birds paladins Sorcerers and warlocks influences Traders prices that's it so you sign your bonuses over here you spend your stat points and you're good to go the skill proficiencies there's a whole lot of them here these are also important choices you can see you can pick two of them again when you use recommended they spend them for you and they put them in places where they think they should be but these basically they add a bonus to skill checks to these skill checks making you more likely to succeed we've seen most of them but we'll go over them again quickly for completion's sake Athletics this is a strength stat or skill stay fit perform physical stunts helps you shove and resist being shoved acrobatics that's dexterity keep your balance land on your feet help resist being shoved sleight of hand you can see this icon says it's from the background we can obviously this is not the right background for barbarian but it's whatever uh wheeled Nimble fingers steal stuff that sleight of hand also dexterity stealth once again dexterity stay out of sight melt into the Shadows helps you with hiding this one helps you pick locks and pockets and design traps Arcana that's intelligence and it recognized magic and interact with Enchanted items history once again intelligence remember the past of the world and its people investigation this is one we hadn't seen yet also intelligence it allows you to analyze Clues and solve Mysteries and in case you were wondering if you spend more points in something like intelligence then your investigation and your history and your Arcana will go up that's why the Athletics is as high as it is right now because I have high strength nature that's intelligence recognize plants and animals hug trees interesting that that's intelligence and not uh wisdom but religion intelligence recognized deities understand holy rights animal handling that's wisdom influence animals pit all the dogs a fantastic I'll put a point in there just because inside once again wisdom read people in situations detect lies medicine recognize symptoms diagnose disease that's wisdom as well perception is also wisdom observe your environment spot hidden details that's pretty important survival also wisdom stay alive in the Wilds track prey deception that's Charisma you get to lie and cheat and manipulate the truth intimidation that's also Charisma be a bully threaten and induce fear performance once again Charisma entertain audiences come on the stage and finally persuasion turn on the charm cooks and cajole and yes it's charisma alright that's it for the abilities and that's it for the final part of this part of the character creation there's more yeah what I'm going to do is I'm going to take you to the origin again and I want to show you something really cool you can actually randomize the entire thing so with the click of a button you can generate a character with a random race class background and appearance and then all the other stuff gets filled in for you watch this there it is we're a brow half elf level one Ranger that just happens to look a little bit like twister erden interesting coincidence it's a fantastic tool you could do a one-click challenge where you click once you randomize and you play with the one that they give you imagine that if you play a lot of Baldur's Gate and you want to go out of your way to do something slightly less easy then you can just let them build your character for you I mean they're still going to build it reasonably well they'll probably still put the stats where they belong but they do randomize the way your character looks they randomize your race sub race your class and all the rest pretty awesome and it's a great way to once again just see all the different options that are available in this system fantastic addition I really like it you know we randomized a bunch right we randomized so much in the customization system but when it comes to this stuff we didn't really like we didn't really there's no random with your class selection or anything like that so with the click of a button here you just get it all done I think it's awesome really fun it's a cool thing to add and again this could help you with inspiration you know if you don't know what to do you come over here you click click click you find something you happy or not I mean or not all right so when you're done here and you've picked the character of your dreams uh whether it be a big red lizard or a um handsome green-haired lass then you can proceed and you can name your character whatever you like once you've done that well once you've done that you need a guardian so this is something I'm not 100 clear on yet I I don't know because I've not played the game but the way this was or at least the way I think it was was that this was a character that you make and from what I get is you meet it after you first use your illifid powers and it's basically the embodiment and representation of the Mind flayers tadpole that's in your character's brain it'll try to tempt you into using your powers more often it'll tell you it's a good idea it's safe it'll tell you that you know it's there for you it'll protect you and so on and so forth I don't know if it's true I don't know if it's trying to trick you you don't know if it's trying to trick you I don't want anyone to spoil this okay this is supposed to be a mystery but you are creating a character that is going to be there for your character so it's kind of important right I'm not saying you're creating the love of your life or something here it could be an even you know it could be anything but they do give you some snazzy looking armor here on all of these combinations and they give you all the races except the Dragonborn which is very interesting to me and you can see that they actually give you different default options which I find quite interesting as well I don't know if it's random here but like the men they're all a little older like the humans for instance gray head stuff like that they all look a little different than the defaults that they give you in the previous section but yeah you get to basically pick your customization options you don't get to pick stats or name or anything else like that you just get to pick the way this character looks again I I don't know all about it if anyone wants to leave a comment that can possibly explain the guardian and its role in the game without spoiling stuff please do otherwise man let's just jump in and enjoy it it's cool not knowing what's going on okay I mean this background is rather ominous isn't it yeah so there you are that's the final step and then you can Venture forth and start the game once you've made this guy or girl you will encounter them in the game world and take it from there if they're gonna be your friend then they're going to be your friends if they're going to be your foe well you're probably in for a rough ride and that my friends brings us to the end of the Baldur's Gate 3 character creation video who'da thought we'll actually make it to the outro oh dudes it's good dudes this is a really good character creation system it's basically the new gold standard the fact that they give you so many options is just insane you know I fear that we are going to look back in despair from the future because nothing we'll be able to beat this we're going to be comparing everything to this and it's all gonna fall short I hope I hope upon hope that the other game devs out there that everyone out there takes heed that they see this and that they react accordingly it's awesome this is the best character creation system that I've ever recorded a video of I've recorded hundreds of videos at this point I've done it all I talk about sometimes you know small bits and pieces here and there that are fantastic in certain games creation systems but this is the whole package I mean I have gushed on and on about the detail level on the models available I've gone on and on about the fact that there are so many races to pick from sub races classes abilities all the extras there is just so much and I mean there's not really anything else I can say it's just good it's just everything that I wanted from a Forgotten Realms character creation system yeah yeah this is it guys this is it and I hope that you guys and your experiences with it have been as positive as mine because like jeez I sat here for so many hours now and I was not bored for a single second of it there's so much to see there's so much to do there's so much to explore and let me tell you we will not know the full extent of what's possible with the cool customization options for some time to come because there's a lot that you can mess around with there's a lot that you can fiddle with there's a lot that you can do to make those Perfect characters and yeah I mean I'm talking about the Cosmetic appearance of your character right now the physical beauty that you can create but that's a big part of it right you play in a character you are creating a Persona that you're jumping into this magnificent world with and yeah the Magnificent world I'm not even going to talk about the game itself I haven't even started the game I've spent something ridiculous like 12 to 15 hours working on this video and I've not yet played the game yeah yeah so man I heartily recommend character creation in Baldur's Gate 3. I I can say it without a doubt I love it it's awesome it's something else it really is and I mean I mentioned as I was going through the specifics there were small things that I noted that could have been maybe implemented improved as an example I said oh yeah it would be cool if they gave us stubble some of the faces had built-in stubble but oftentimes there wasn't yeah that's like literally the smallest thing and that's the only thing I could have found as a fault like that's it that's it that's it yeah that's it that's the only problem I had uh and and then on the side of the positives it just it's overflowing the hair oh my God the hair there are so many hairstyles show me the person that made all those hairstyles I will fly to whichever country they live in I will go to the office I'll give them a hug and say hey man wow that was awesome you did such a good job with this well done the colors the Vibrance just to look and feel overall of all the Races they nailed it so yeah I mean okay I can sit here for an hour and talk about how good it is but I'm gonna stop I'm gonna let myself and all of you get out there and play the game so go play the game enjoy it if you haven't already give this video a like share it and do all that other good stuff please it means the world to me subscribe if you haven't already yeah spread the word all these Gates out do it do it do it we've been waiting a long time for this go enjoy dudes enjoy happy that [Music] [Music]
