Hmm, idk people like midgets. I for one roll a midget in every mmo as i'm quite short myself so it lets me reflect on myself in game. This definitly confirmed for me that i'm rolling a lallafel.
FFXI's character creation was horrible. You selected from a handful of totally premade characters per gender/race, and then chose their height..This games is better but still needs more options.

Well, of course this is a little simple compared to other games but compared to FFXI it's a HUGE improvement. For my part, I think this looks great. Beside, this is a part of a beta, they might and probably have some more options that they will keep hidden until release. Sometimes, releasing too much information too early leads to many angry people that expected more from you...

Guy with the mic can't present a demo worth a damn, which seems to be a common problem with the peeps working on FFXIV. Seriously, how do these guys get these jobs? Every other word he said was either cool or awesome.
Sure European games have their midgets too, but eastern midgets are the worst... Well, not that I ever expected FF XIV to come out without midgets, but...
they were suppose to go over all the disciples... whoever is creating this character was way too excited.
Wed Jun 23 2010 1:17PM ReportAnd anyone who thinks there's 4 different hair styles at release, get real. Lol.
Wed Jun 23 2010 1:17PM ReportFirst! (hey it said be the first to comment).
Looks rather bland, the standard MMO fare char creation, nothing like the superhero MMOs.
Wed Jun 23 2010 1:18PM Reportor third.
Wed Jun 23 2010 1:18PM Reportto be honest dident reveal anything new, than was alredy shown in the weird" secret undercover mission" vid about miothe char creation.
Wed Jun 23 2010 1:37PM Reportmidgets! somehow i knew there would be some kind of midget race in this game.
i don't get it. is it obligatory in easter mmos to have them? would the world cease to exist if they did't put them in?

Wed Jun 23 2010 3:22PM Reportof course there will be a smaller race, that isn't just in eastern mmos... remember dwarves, gnomes, goblines? those are western >_>;
I wonder what the other 3 creation screens were that they didn't let them see.
Wed Jun 23 2010 3:22PM ReportYay! That's gunna be metaru~
Wed Jun 23 2010 5:36PM ReportHardly a robust character avatar creator. They need to take a look at Aion or even city of heroes.
Wed Jun 23 2010 6:15PM ReportFFXI had the best character creation screen evar. This one is just bland. :/ Not that it really matters though, just saying. :P
Wed Jun 23 2010 6:19PM Report@Rajen, I was gonna say the same thing to Eviltutor, but you beat me to it.
There have been "midget" type races in Western fantasy for decades now, including the dwarves, halflings, gnomes, etc.
SE has simply put their own twist on it.
Wed Jun 23 2010 6:41PM ReportI can't believe how amateurish the coverage of this major title has been. It's almost as if you want it to look bad. =/
Many people are just starved for information, and sadly; this fails to deliver.

Wed Jun 23 2010 11:47PM ReportHey, guy with the mic. Get the hell outta the way and put the mic down.
Thu Jun 24 2010 2:01AM ReportLooks good so far... But I want my Galka already! And there better be BST in this thing or I am going to be upset lol.
Thu Jun 24 2010 5:32PM Reportlol the person playin was jokes he never said anything, and he created a funny lookin char.
