It was so much fun to customize races in endless space(s) and endless legend.

I agree, we definitely need this. It is a little ridiculous that you have to work so hard to get unlock these things but then you can never use them yourself. I feel we would have more personas if people were also able to use their own abilities as they would be motivated to unlock new ones.

I'll take it a step farther and say that Humankind should have full-fledged AI modification tools like in Endless Space/Legend. That feels like a massively missing feature in Humankind.

Also, let's directly take our own diy personal characters as our opponents.

That feature wouldn't work with the way cultures are. Persona's are basically that feature anyways.

I believe you can download your avatar if you uploaded them to G2G, I believe the devs pointed that out to me

the player shouldn't need an out of game platform to be able to do what previous amplitude games were able to do just fine. The Mechanics are available, just not being implemented.

Well, yes, you can download your avatar you previously uploaded to G2G. But you can't play against it ingame. It is just a way to have 2 avatars : one that you officially share on G2G and serves as your AI avatar that your friends or people can use in their games, and one local avatar that will represent you as the leader of your culture throughout the game.

so Basically, Humankinds current form of customization kills itself as it gives the player little to no incentive to even use it. They can't use the traits, only the AI can use said traits (as if Ai aren't given enough buffs and cheats already), they can only fight custom avatars made by other people with no control over what traits/personalities those avatars have. They can't fight their own custom avatars like previous games could, some traits I believe were event exclusive and others require achievements and other ways to unlock which in itself gives no incentives for the player to unlock as said before the player can't even use said traits, nor fight ai with the traits they want unless they download other players avatars, the only thing worth customizing is appearance. It's a downgrade that makes ES1's customization look good, and that game is 10 years old.

This is what darkarrow told me.

Hey

@Yutterh

Regarding your persona it should be the same, if you have the game connected the G2G. If you go into a different computer you can download from G2G your uploaded persona (you need to go into the community tab, then on the share icon > It's on the right side, under the pencil one).
