Characters creation, npcs, and individual suit pieces

This may seem like something that comes as out of place for SE2 but please hear me out.


So a good character creation tool and individual suit parts are the most important, and please take the time to hear me out on this. Role play and a female player base.


You do not need to get to indepth with the parts you make for the suits or what suits you actually make. Just tool it so that it can be easily modded and customizable. Putting a character model under the suit and then the suit over that, in a way that scales with the characters, you are opening up your game to a different side of the modding community. A side that has kept games that are far outshined by SE1&2 alive far longer than they should of. Conan Exiles being one of them.


That game is a dumpster fire of programming, its a slog to deal with, crashes all of the time, the building makes most people want to take a grinder to their own eyes, and past all of that, its boring as a game. BUT. And thats a big but, the pretty characters and the ability to work within that dumpster fire programming has kept hat game alive for far too long.


Another example, and a better one, is the old NeverWinter nights game by Bioware. That game is older than some programmers now and there are RP servers that have been running for 20+ years. Unlike the aforementioned dumpster fire, this is actually a good game, with good game play and character models that, while not the best, do well for what most RP communities are looking for.


Now onto the selfish reason why I would love to see this in SE2. The building in this game is amazing, I am spent months just putting a ship together, fine tuning details and lighting, tempting Klang, and making something that would do really really well as a kind of Star Trek/Wars/ Mass Effect or whatever kind of SciFi world you could imagine and build for to be turned into a hub for an RP server. One with a broader cast of characters that just us nerdy dudes that like legos and space stuff.


By making piece based armor and space suits you give modders the chance to make things that would draw women into this game, like pretty outfits, attractive characters, and Role Play. This would give us builders something else to build for aside from combat or efficiency. Instead we could build for hubs, start RP servers, tell stories inside of a game that already lets us unleash our creativity, it would now let us build sets for a broad cast of characters to truly get wrapped up in whatever story it is we want to tell.


Please please please take this into consideration. The game is already going to be a hit, but something like this could really put it in a place to be truly immortalized as something that people use for years and years to come. Since there is literally no good game to really do Scifi RP servers on, Space Engineers 2 would be the first to bridge that gap and open up a new setting to RPers while also bringing more women into the nerd fold that is this amazing game!
