Assassin, in the box art we saw

Before choose the profession we saw

After chose it we found these to choose.

I really hope Anet can add better appearances, there are many good asian faces. Why use these ugly ones?

My assassin is pretty good looking :] -- but I wouldn't be against more options.

That's just the starter armor. You can get armor that looks similar to the one on the box cover pretty early in the game. As for your face, it's' hardly noiticable half the time, plus you're going to be wearing a mask so only your eyes will show.

I'm just talking about the faces. Why sins don't have pretty faces even though the profession art(Vizu/Nika) is amazing?

Personally, I really hope the new costumes they'll be releasing for the Cantha content will have some new threads for the Sin. Something like Yuri the Hand:

i agree. some professions have maybe like one or three good faces and rest are ugly.

dont go by the art. none of the in-game faces look as nice as the art

just wait until gw2 when u can customize faces. ull be happy then

The concept arts are generally of key NPCs, not of player models.
Nika looks very much like her concept art.

Well other professions all got nice faces, especially the prophecy characters. Rit and para got some good faces, too. Sins are the worst.

Pretty sure that is called concept art...

I didn't say it has to be as good as Vizu/Nika, but at least give us some nice faces.

Yeah, female rits are pretty gosh darn hideous.

Kojima · Jan 16, 2011, 08:20 AM // 08:20

I like my sin now. but it did take a while to get everything right enough. I agree that we need some new faces. And some new hair....

Bright Star Shine · Jan 16, 2011, 01:25 PM // 13:25

I like how my ssin looks, only the name sucks atm, but I wasn't in a creative mood when I created her I guess..

Anyway, most of the faces are pretty good, but there are really ugly ones too..

I say, let the company do their best in GW2, which, from what I've seen, they're doing, and your eyes will pop out of your head of the prettyness and artyness you'll witness there..

At least, that's what they promised us, better don't under deliver, or my pitchfork and my torch will be brought up^^

ensoriki · Jan 16, 2011, 03:39 PM // 15:39

My assassin wants an Afro, bad.
Hair and face should've been available to everyone regardless of profession >.>

I don't have PvE assassin because I hate assassins from the beginning (first because of afflicted soul explosion killing anime freaks and now because of AoHM scythe sins that break the game...not the mention the completely blade covered armors). My PvP assassin is male for the reason that the female ones all look drunk or high. Not that the male ones are much better.

Anyway, they should add more faces for new characters, but don't charge 14.99 for them. For changing old characters, it should still be $9.99 for 5 changes.

Nika ingame doesn't do the box justice either. (http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/File:Nika.jpg)

I believe that rit headpieces and Mask of the Mo Zing are the GW equivalent of a paper bag over the head ;D

couldnt agree more. assassins and rits really got screwed over with appearance. i'd kind of like to poke whoever came up with them in the eye... sucks that you can use the makeover kit to "upgrade" the appearance of the the core professions, but youre stuck with the same ole crap as the start screen if you do it for sin, para, rit, and derv. even 2-3 more faces/hair styles(and color) for non core would be nice.

i've kind of been partial to the idea of once you have a campaign the faces/hair/skin should be "unlocked". Say you make an ele in nightfall, but you want her to have proph hair and a factions face, you should be able to, so long as you have the campaign. wouldnt think it would really be hard to implement. but then they went and put in the makeover dude....
