MerelyFinite Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Just wondering for the DEV team if it will be possible (eventually) mix races? Because I'm personally wanting to make a Sith Pureblood who has a Miraluka Eye Covering and is a Jedi Counselor on the Republic. Just wanting to know if this is just a dream I should leave in the clouds or if this may be a wish that will come true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a neat suggestion for maybe future content added to the game much later on. Imagine having a Chiss mixed with Mirialan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulci Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I got to imagine that has to be a nightmare for character creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a nightmare, they'd just have to add a TON more to character creation when it came to choosing a mixed race. How much of one race's features would you want dominant. It would be a LOT added, which is why I say it would probably be far down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluerodian Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) I got to imagine that has to be a nightmare for character creation. Not really. Just a bit of texture and asset swaping. Since all player models are built on very similar structures, clipping wouldn't be much of an issue. Perhaps with Twi-leks and the lekku, but no more so than when a Twi-'lek wears a full head helmet. Have a twi'lek wearing a Chiss skin instead of a normal skin, for instance as an example of texture swapping.

Bluerodian Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Chiss mixed with mirialan, and if it shaves his/her head wouldnt it just look like this with red eyes? Edit: just realised this might be seen as a bit racist, i was merely stating that blue+green=brown I think that he or she would have the option of either blue or green skin, but also perhaps some little cosmetic things such as green skin with blue freckles or markings. Also, blue + green = aqua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaelano Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 If they'd had this in intial character creation it would have been meaningless to most people who don't have knowledge or interest of canon. You'd have a bunch of messy looking cross-breeds and the game wouldn't look much like star wars. With care and interest tho, the above ideas presented sound cool...

D'oh! well it has been a while since i learned about colour mixing in school, but yeah an aqua coloured person would be cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talsalus Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 IMO the only thing that I could ever see them doing is letting you choose more species besides human for cyborgs..... think about it.. a sith pure cyborge or even a twi'lek.. would be ch'sweet.

agilmore Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 The Sith Purebloods are part human, only because of Sith Alchemy. Star Wars lore follows real world genetics, in that natural reproduction requires genetic compatibility. Species mixing would be extremely rare, and restricted to species that are very closely related. The machine on Belsavis that the inquisitors use was the creator of some species, and presumably many of the near humans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altyrell Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 The bigger/better question would if LucasArts would allow BioWare to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
