What games have good character creators out of interest?
well, "good" is kind of subjective, since everyone has different tastes when it comes to Character Creation (CC).
I define a CC as "good" if I can make a reasonably/acceptably attractive female character or handsome male character, based on my tastes and preferences, of course. and how easy is it to make said character or replicate other people's characters I find online.
I'd say, as an example, the WWE games tend to have fairly robust CCs. The Dragon Age games had good ones, too. As did the original ME games, especially with the face code system which made it easy to replicate faces.
In contrast, ME Andromeda had a crappy CC which was a huge step back from prior games. It was severely limiting, imo.
Skyrim has an ok CC. It's not the worst, but it could be better. And a lot of that, for me, has to do with the design choices Bethesda made with the game, not with the CC itself. For example, unlike other fantasy games, elves in Skyrim aren't exactly "pretty." So if you want to make the typical hot elf in CC, it's hard to do. Bretons have that weird forehead wrinkle that you can't get rid of. etc.
