inZOI looks promising

I have watched a review video by RachelPedd, talking about Zoi character creation. Here are my personal highlights: pros

Sims 4-like sliders, just pull the region you want to change

color wheels for clothes and makeup!

different recolorable areas, glossiness slider on certain types of makeup

opacity slider for makeup

sliders for iris and pupil size, color and brightness for eye, separately recolorable outer rim of iris

clothes can be layered (jacket over a dress, or a shirt...)

clothes can be individually changed (change collars, style of sleeves, hem length on a shirt, etc)

character are trait-based, but with general traits likeopenness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism, which I think is excellent! You can pick one trait from each of these categories. These traits unlock at different life stages, some earlier, some only when becoming a young adult, which is interesting.

male/female ZOI's seem to have a height difference

a lot of clothes are for both for male and female bodies

in addition to regular animation, you can enable different fixed poses in character creation

cons:

you can only create adult ZOIs in character creation, life stages younger than young adult are only accessible through gameplay

there is a pattern system, but only AI-based (AI images are very hit-and-miss)

limited hairstyles, especially textured/curly hair is lacking at this point

No color wheel for skintones

limited body weight sliders, face and neck stay too slim

But this game is still in development and will change a lot, and Krafton has said they are very much looking for feedback to improve what they have! So I just went and added something to their wishlist.

If you want to be able to have human-made recolorable patterns and load in your own patterns too, please visit the😸 inZOI discord 😸 and upvote my suggestion with the title "Non-AI patterns/textures and user-imported images". Thank you!

Reunion

"Rook, is that really you?" "It's me."

This render has been sitting basically finished, just un-rendered and un-edited in my folders for WEEKS now, which is a crime, because it's fucking adorable.

Rook finally got to see his former captain and mentor, Zara, again for the first time in 3 years, and it was a very bittersweet reunion. She ended up revealing that she was aware of every single things that Wolf was doing to him during his time on the Sea Snake, but was unable to do anything about it because if she or anyone under her employ were to attempt to rescue him, Wolf would have killed him. As it turns out, she gave up sailing in order to protect him, lest Wolf take any movement of hers as a threat.

Here's my write-up of the first part of the scene:

And of course the reunion was then interrupted by the arrival of a giant snake which proceeded to eat Jay, the former surgeon's apprentice on Zara's ship and Rook's only friend prior to meeting the party. When he showed up Zara had been about to explain something very important to Rook (why Wolf hates her so much, and why she went after Rook), and after weeks of delays and fighting the giant snake, Rook (and I) finally get to find out the truth on Saturday.

Zara's been hinting that it's something Not Good and that she's worried about his reaction, but luckily for her, Rook would forgive her literally anything. And I do mean anything. She was the first person in his life who was ever truly kind to him, and she means more to him than any other person in his life. And this is the same man who tried to tell the BBEG of the entire campaign that he "wasn't that person anymore", after only knowing him for a matter of months. (In his defense he didn't know he was the BBEG.) In comparison, he'd been sailing with Zara for 6 years before he was captured.

Oh, and she's also going to give him her old ship, the Tide Breaker, and name him captain, which is going to be a bit of a mindfuck for him, given his intense guilt over Jay and like 18 other bad things that have happened to the party recently. Augh, I can't wait.
