A+ on Ritualist. Assassin however.... eh... (mild spoiler)
jestx
**Spoiler- character appearances. Don't read on if you want to be surprised.**
So I thought the Ritualist was wearing a head cover for a reason. The assassin was plastered all over Factions websites and ads. But uh yeah... I went to create an assassin and none of the appearances look anything like the pictures. Purple hair isn't even an option for hair color. Most of the assassin females look like boys....
I checked out ritualist and took off her head cover and wow. Every hair style is great, she looks hawt...
So yeah, A+ on the Rit, but totally skimped on the assassin's look. I get the whole "short hair shogun ninja" thing, even for the females, but there's only like 1 or 2 hair styles with hair past the ears. Should AT LEAST have 1 hair style that looks like the picture of the assassin on all the ads. And why no purple hair???? :P

You're right. The picture of the Assassin on the box is completely misleading. They don't look anything like that. Unless, they are planning an option to put a hair stylist or something in the game. But even then, the armor itself doesnt look anywhere near as cool as the box. In the game it looks like cheap cloth, and the color on it are not rich at all. I really think they are the worst looking class in the game.

Actually, I decided that the rit was wearing the headcover for a reason, after taking it off. Seldom do I leave the helm, scar, etc visible, but in this case, I am keeping her head in the towel.

Do you remember the necro girl in the old GW site/box?? The armour wasn't in game until we realized that wasn't a normal cheap armour, but a special one. maybe you get the other somewhere later in game

That or the fact that the character is an NPC in the game. They mostly have a unique appearance. Like Cynn or Devona (AKA. Bootylicious).

fallot
The Assassin skills arent too great either. They changed a few things from the FPE, not very good changes IMO.
Count to Potato
ritualist in game still looks way better
jestx
So yeah, I just had to make an assassin anyways. I grabbed some new armor, and I must say, she's looking much better. I mixed up a custom dye for a little personal touch. Whatcha guys think?
Btw the second screenie has the early access daggers which look as sharp as they are. :P
Mini skirts ftw. Now I just have to unlock Kage Bunshin No Jutsu ^_-

If you didn't like that, then you'll absolutely hate this one, which I kinda regret buying now *SPOILER*:

I thought that Rits wore the blindfold type headwraps was so that they can channel spirits without being distracted...

Sir, you date yourself. ... ... wasn't it on an aircraft carrier?
And yeah, Male Assassin looks like what you'd expect if SubZero joined the Village People.

So uhh guys...does the female warrior look a thing like Devona? Or does the ranger look like Aidan? Your forgetting that the Assassin on the cover is an actually character in the game. You don't want clones everywhere.

Trust me, that assassin character in game looks equally as bad as the one you get to make. (same body model)
shinja
I think all the new stuff looks awsome and people are being too critical because they think it makes them somehow cool.
Picky, picky.

The assasin on the boxes/adds/and what-not was the assasin that "disabled" Shiro Tegachi to allow the luxon and Kurzik bodyguards to slay him.
I watched the trailer on the GW official site a couple times before I saw the connection. The assasin on the front is dead. a jade statue :P

The assasin on the front is dead. a jade statue :P The Jade Statue was the one, she used her shadow skills to try and outrun the jade wind, but failed. Her soul was recovered so that she could tell the tale. It's in the lore section of the pima guide.
Although the box girl could be the assasin the Menhlo knows, an Cynn is not happy when she finds out Menhlo's best childhood friend is a girl.

Umm... hair stylist... Assassin females need more then that, they need a boob job to be quite simple... Rit females could lose half their breasts, and transfer it to the assassin, which would make them both about the same as the other females in the game. Assassin females look like skinnier guys, with tiny man boobs.... sry, but it is the truth. Rits are sexy, assassins are.... well... FUGLY.
jesh
They're just anorexic. I could care less about breast size if they weren't so retardedly skinny. (not a boob guy)
Female rangers are little better if you ask me. Oh and I agree, assassins simply look terrible. But that doesn't stop everyone from having one, does it? =0

The Assassin on the game cover very much looks like Nika... You can take a look at her when she is available to be on your party and you can see... (I think she can be used at the Tahnakai Temple) Her face is the same as on the cover, and even her armor is the same (kinda like a customized version of Female Seitung armor, with the right shoulder armor taken out)... Although her body DOES seem quite a bit skinnier and not as well endowed as in the cover or the detailed FMV sequences...
The Ritualists having their eyes covered does have a reason. In the manuscripts, it says that they cover their eyes so that they can communicate more closely with the spirits... I'm guessing this is for concentration or what not.....

Well box being Nika or Vizu, doesn't matter too much as Nika is related to Vizu, and trust me, family resemblance can carry a long way down the family tree.
S H I N O B I
Thought true, Vizu looks a bit different in the game compared to the "cinematic trailer"... In the trailer, Vizu looks very much like how Nika looks... but in the Tahnakai Temple mission, "Ghost Vizu's" hair is straight and short, and her face is different... She looks very much like how Nika looked like as an NPC during the Factions FPE preview weekend....
btw: Nika is hot ^.^ I love her facial features!
