World of Warcraft has been offering a lot of re-customization services lately. It started with the Renaming service, then Male to Female (and vice versa) re-customization. And then they also offered re-customization in-game where you can change your skin color, hair, accessories and even your toon’s face by just visiting the in-game Barbershop.
And then lately, they offered the Faction change re-customization where you can go from Horde to Alliance and vice versa. And soon, even race change is going to be available in 3.2.2! (Crap, I re-levelled a BE priest just so I can have a pretty toon. I used to have an undead one. Bleh)
With all these re-customization features, I’m surprised they still haven’t offered a REAL customization feature wherein you can actually change your toon however you like it. You know, like change the shape of the nose, of the eyes, of the mouth, the face and the body. A customization feature wherein you can actually make your toon look exactly like yourself!
That would be an awesome feature, I would think. I always make it a point that all my toons in every MMORPG I play look a bit like me. And the blood elf is the closest toon in World of Warcraft that looks similar to myself since it’s the skinniest! I’m so glad they have that short bob cut with bangs (see image above!) since I’m sporting that hairstyle as well in real life, haha.
I really think a full customization feature is a great idea! It would definitely change the feel of the game! Imagine a fat blood elf, or a fat undead (though that would be weird), or maybe even a skinny Tauren! Or a tall gnome, bwahaha.
That would be sooo hilarious!
But I guess that would be hard on programming, designing and all that stuff since they have to customize all the gear to fit as well. Oh well, a little musing doesn’t hurt!

1I agree. I am a little late getting on the massive wow boat. I just started playing and lvl 4 now. My bf has been playing since wow started. I wish I could change a few features or get new ones. I agree with the programing. So many codes and possibilities and to try to attend to everyones wants. Too much to do. But it would be cool for a price or to loot a new expression or style.
