{
"body": "They stated why: it's a racing game not an exploration like other online games. You can only view character in pause menu and in the car meet tent, so it was not a priority to input more data that's not even going to be seen most of the time. The wanted to focus on making better gameplay and didn't think going above and beyond on character customization was a big deal"

{
"body": "I feel like character customization in modern games sucks a lot. It's like modern developers are allergic to attractive looking characters and good looking hair, it's the same in Horizon as well. All the characters just look weird. How hard is it to just give the players a slider and tell them to go wild? How difficult is it to just grab some normal and good looking hairstyles from a fashion magazine?",

{
"body": "All the hairstyles are used by every character in the game, so you can't even make them unique. I think Cyberpunk 2077 has the same problem.",

},
{
"body": "Probably because the game focus is on cars and not characters is likely that the customization of characters was the last thing on their minds, I honestly don't mind it since i don't see mine that much but the faces are really really janky"
