Female representation ?

So - can you play as a woman / Female / SHE ? Or not? I am not interested in playing as a man. I saw that you can make a female character, then I saw that both look the same. That won't do as we are different beings entirely. And quite frankly I don't want to toss 20.00 away on something that lacks the common decency to add female characters - especially in this day and age, as we are in fact often under represented or misrepresented, I.E., See blizzard changing art in game of women, to be fruit baskets. Over it. And if you disagree with that sentiment, scroll right on by with your misogyny.

How you play is up to you, the character's graphics are binary, but tend towards a hard-working muscular physique for both genders.

So like, yes, there is male or female body composition in character creation.

We still cannot play as goblins though, for which I am a bit chagrined.

Those are female characters. They just don't have ridiculously large gamer B008$. And lack the fan service bikini armor. So, actually, Valheim is ahead of the curve in those aspects. Dress a male character and a female character in the basic leather armor and you can tell the difference in shoulders and hips, although it's more subtle than gamers are used to seeing.

Honestly the character creator in general is not that great. But once you're in armor and wearing a cloak it ceases to make any difference.

Here is what the GUI looks like, and the model.

Note that the beard function of the GUI does nothing.
Happy gaming.

this may help as others have mentioned androgenous charachter pretty much the skills you build make the difference not the gender

Careful! You're treading on dangerous ground. We don't want this game to draw the attention of the woketard community. Those vicious morons will have the devs working exclusively on programming all of their hundreds of imaginary genders into the game instead of actual content. They're slow enough as it is.

Sounds like an Anita Sarkeesian grift. "If your game isn't woke enough, we'll blast you on twauter. And their 50 or so woke check marks won't buy a game they would never buy in the first place.

Too bad. My nonbinary butt is already here.

And I play games like this to get off of social media and get away from watching dumb people yell at and about each other.

Complete and utter troll bait There's representation for both genders. However, there's no advanced customization for either.

Do you get all up in arms when the Minecraft cult is fascinated about their game yet they are two square blocks?

Yea, this looks like a troll thread.
Asking if there's female representation. Knows the answer - yes.
Complains about similar forms. Explains not wanting to spend money on a game without female characters - already debunked by themselves.
Complains about another company's handling of female characters.
Explains that anyone who disagrees should leave with their hate toward women.

Good discussion piece. Maybe the suggestion forum would be better for specific suggestions.
