General Avatar Height - Male and Female

[LadyGroundscore]

The dev diary footage of Odyssey looks great! I have one small request.

Either:
- Make avatar height customizable.
Or
- Make male and female avatars equal in height.

As a 6-foot-tall woman, trying to see an avatar that is shorter than those around her as myself would break my immersion.

Thanks!

Just you wait until space legs comes out and the smaller hitbox makes female avatars mechanically better

+1 for variety. Would like to see some amazons walking around.

Realistically all this time spent in low g would have a majority of humans with longer bones that are somewhat frail and atrophied muscles. Have fun shooting it out with your paper skin and glass bones

Lore-twist: everyone uses exo-skeletons, making them the same height.

One request: can we get frameless helmets? This is 3306, and even in 2020 these are now reality (SpaceX).

If combat is going to use hit boxes then I'd suggest everyone needs to be the same height and proportion, which won't be great from a customisation perspective but is pretty much essential from a balance perspective in pvp (otherwise everyone will choose the smallest possible frame to be harder to hit).

It's actually a very valid quandary. I wonder how fdev will do it. Other games I've played that have visual customisation actually have one hit box that's the same size (so no location damage).

I expected a torrent of snu-snu gifs after that.
