As a default/common choice there's nothing really to disagree with there. But limiting choices, especially to a narrow set of archetypes, is a different matter. I probably wouldn't object if there was a checkbox that said "enable (opposite of current gender) hairstyles" or whatever.
RPGs are better when they're a bit different whilst remaining internally cohesive. They don't need grumpy dwarfs and mechanical gnomes and so on to make sense, and there's no reason it can't break out of certain other clichés too, (when doing so makes sense).
Saints Row is some gangstery thing? Don't know that I'd enjoy that, and I'm not going to look into it because I should already be asleep by now and you keep distracting me! :@ |
