Why are acendancies locked to characters at this point?

Seriously, 90% of the animations are already available for all characters/body types, just let us choose freely.

I'm not even asking for full character customization, even a MTX to change my characters "skin/body" would be enough.

I've thought the same thing. They already have the animations and voice lines for every skill on every character.

Character customization could be switching between the various parts of the rig. Which, if I understand correctly, is head, legs, torso, arms. Plus they can let us pick a voice.

You might pick the sorc torso with warrior legs and arms with the witch head that talks like the mercenary. Hey, we don't kink shame on Wraeclast.

Nay nay, warrior torso with sorc legs.
Always skip leg day, never wear shorts.
:D
Ascendancies is the only thing that legitimizes having classes in the game
You can be anything. A Spell casting Warrior, a Witch with a Bow. Theonly problem is your starting position on a passive tree. It makes classes a bit meaningless. So why not just go with a character creator I dunno

Prolly because that would make some characters unkillable demigods.

There is like D4 for that kinda easypeasy playing.

I think they mean just the character model. I don't think they're suggesting to separate class from ascendancies.

EDIT: Reading again, I might be wrong what they meant. IDK.

That's nice and all but I don't even care about going into that much detail. I'm honestly willing to give them money to just replace the model of my character at this point even though there's no reason it needs to be a mtx
