Hi all.
From the list on the Left from top to bottom which in your mind out of that list had the best Character designs.?
Myself i think, SWG.

Well, that question is really too subjective to even answer. Do you prefer hyper-realism or highly stylized art? Both perfectly valid styles, just a preference. The game with the best character generation is CoX, hands down. Limited only by your imagination. Wanna be a giant bunny, a blue genie, a soldier, or a suited gangster? I've seen em all and so much more. You can be any humanoid you can imagine, really the best ( wish the gameplay had been as compelling).
Spellborn maybe? I love the look of their spindley looking characters. Just very unique style
Maybe Aion next? or maybe Everquest 2?
There was one game (mind you i cannot remember the name now) But we could be Crazy Giant Flowers and with added feature that looked somewhat a bit much at times at times.
It was funny to see though. was a long time ago as well.
Well, Aion's character creation will pretty much allow you to make anything you want--
here are some examples including characters from the LOTR trilogy, Michael Jackson and even Arthas.

That's what I like.
It's almost 2010, and I am just not wiling to tolerate clunky graphics while being told that "gameplay is more important than graphics". That excuse won't wash with me any more. I expect my games to have both good graphics and good gameplay.

SWG nothing else compares......
If ur looking for the most versatile, as in many options and combinations and what not, i would say CoX and AoC. If u want realism my first thought is AoC and if i think about how the charecters looked in CoX i would say they looked pretty real so COX too. For Syle i would have to go with AION from what ive seen in vids, Warhammer and WoW from what I played.
I did play SWG after the NGE(so i guess i didnt really play it...) but i dnt remember those guys looking "real", having many choices, or being stylized. Could be wrong though
Wow that looks really sweet I might actually make a real me if I play this game, and maybe i can finally make how ic Arya from the inhertiance books in my head
Definitely not SWG. The only thing SWG had going for it was lots of species and tons of wearables but let's not kid ourselves about preCU. What was available to wear into battle and what was appropriate to wear into battle were two different things. I ****ing hated the retarded composite armor wars. OMG, I can't even begin to describe how truly stupid SWG PvP looked with every single non jedi wearing a completely identical set of armor ON BOTH SIDES.
Gimme a break! CoX easily has the best character design/creation system I've ever seen in terms of variety though I'm not terribly keen on the costume system itself. I prefer having physical wearables I can actually equip.
Granado Espada. You said character design not character customization. Granado Espada doesn't have much customization, but the characters are damn nice looking. I don't think any game with lots of customization compares to Granado Espada's detail since you lose detail with high amounts of customization. Also Risk Your Life had some nice Character Designs.
If your talking about Customization, then I would say Perfect World and AION.
Most fun character customization must be CoH/CoV, but most advanced avatars and customization is SWG imo. SWG have more equipment slots than most games, highly customizable character model, and face animations. Too bad the game sucks.
Test out Aion's, then post. I can make a char with my own face or any face, shape or build. There is no limit.
Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...
Runes of Magic.
I was so suprised by the level of customisation for a F2P game. Beats all the P2P games I've played in this area. Pick it up guys!!!
Exteel has a really beautifull line of Mechs. I love them.
Im surprised noone has mentioned Ryzom, i always thought It had a cool and kinda orginal design.
CoX has the best character designs when your looking at a character I made.
It can have some pretty crappy character designs tho.
Design: WAR (though customization is horrible there)
Customization: EQ2 (though design is horrible there)
Best mix: Probably SWG, although customization DID have some flaws there, you could create fat bastards and choose from 200 different clothes, but all the members or one race looked mostly the same.

Yea that's awesome, when i scrolled down to Michael Jackson, i got a nice scare. Hahahahaha
As of right now CoX , and what i seen of Aion... that also.
For me, probably SWG. I had two female and one male avatar, and they all looked great. I have my screenshots on my work pda and I still look through them from time to time. I miss them
Darkfall
Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!
Lineage 2 imo...Aion soon though
March on! - Lets Invade Pekopon
I know it not there but face it, it's OBLIVION by a mile. and then the Gothic series.
and I also miss E@B and also D@L but thats me.
Lineage 2 has the best design that I have seen and AION looks like it will have the best when it comes out.
Hello Kitty Online: Island Adventures
Hello Kitty! Online... hands-down best character designs. Its been pwning the multimedia field even before Lineage 2 or WoW combined. Darkfall has nothing on Hello Kitty!
