I will preface this and say usually i am not interested in middle age fantasies with the exception of Berserk, but i did play Dragon's Dogma 1 and although i could not finish because it was just faulty game design. It had a lot of promise with me being able to make my own loli characters and even a weirdly tall muscular amazon, the Pawn system is such a cool and innovative one. Dragon's Dogma II is announced and you hear so much how it's going to add in the missing content from Dragon's Dogma I, be a revamp of the MMO gameplay and even hints at smaller characters, Itsuno was willing to put himself out there for it, the same guy that saved DMC with DMC3, the guy who came back for DMCV and did an excellent job. I felt hyped and even preordered on Steam which is rare of me to do. Now the Character Creation tool releases 2 weeks before the game is out, it is severely gimped, you can not create any character below 5'3(162cm) and on top of that as one user mentions on RPGCodex(page 95 on the Dragon's Dogma II JRPG Weaboo Section)
Although i disagree slightly because whenever we seem to get ANY mods on Gamebanana or even NexusMods they take it down, and users sadly do not realize to come here and host their mods or put it on a site. They are correct in that it is severely limited and it feels like an ideological thing than Capcom trying to do their reselling the DLC. There is also proof that this was intentionally gimped because when Slider edit mods came out. The height and boob size minimums were completely artificial Someone handicapped the character creator. These are just two images.
The thing is this is a downgrade from DD1 a severe one, and even if Capcom sells in the height slider and the boob slider, it will just show Capcom has circled back into the Greed again when it comes to the West just like 10 years ago, and thinks they have it in the bag. I would advise everyone to cancel their preorders and if people truly do wish to play it, then wait for it on a huge sale and until everything is out. Do not pay full price and try not to pay money for this game as a whole.
P.S Beware if people try to use the culture war in order to promote the game to own the left, or if the game is very progressive for being trans friendly. They are trying to fool people into purchasing the game and line the pockets with the lowest denominator nowadays.
