#Star trek online alien race builds Patch
It's usually a case of "Oops, forgot to include that" on the part of the person writing up the patch notes though.Ĭlick to shrink.I've touched on this before in my rambles about Sela.įirstly, we so know from canon that intermixed Romulans/non-Vulcanoids face a lot of discrimination in Romulan society. Cryptic's stealth patches exist and have for as long as I've been playing. Peregry care to weigh in on the subject of Aliens and their half-Romulan offspring in Romulan society both before and after the fall of the Star Empire?Īs to them stealth-patching such limitations into the Alien character creator for the Romulan faction? Yeah it is bullshit, but it's also not unbelievable. The inclusion of these half-alien, half-Romulan peoples is also indicative of the Romulan Republic's more inclusive approach to Remans and non-Romulans without stretching it beyond the point of disbelief or alienating other, less tolerant factions of the Romulan peoples that the Republic still hopes to win over.
So from a purely thematic perspective it does, in fact fit. Probably happened to male slaves too, but there's still a major stigma against guys talking about that kind of thing, especially if it was a female doing the assaulting/abusing/etc.Īnd we do have an on-screen example in the form of Sela and how she came to be show that it did happen. It's a little talked about reality that it wasn't uncommon for female slaves - back when slave owning was still a thing that happened - to be sexually abused by their owners. The Romulan Alien character creator does not allow for that.įor example, here's the character I wanted for the Romulans, but made in KDF instead.Īnd here's how the same settings turned out for a Romulan.Īctually there's nothing stopping Romulan guys from sticking their dicks in females of other species and given their attitudes it probably wouldn't be uncommon. Just seeing how bizarre I can get with it. While we're limited to standard bipedal humanoids, the idea of extreme variation is appealing.
Y'know, maybr I don't want to play "Forehead Alien #3654". Now, from a gameplay aspect, it's dumb because it limits character creation abilities. Pro-Romulan, anti-not-Romulan attitudes like that do not go away in a generation or two, especially since the attitude was so ingrained in the Romulan culture and given how long-lived they are. As much of a bitch as she is, I gotta respect her fot that. I bet the only reason Sela made it to where she did was because she utterly rejected her human side and fought tooth and nail to get it. If you are able to create one with the more pronounced features, can you take a screenshot and post it here so I can go back to them and say "Hey dumbass, look at this."Ĭonsidering how Romulans were extreme speciesists even against Vulcans and Remans (who are genetic cousins), it would seem like interbreeding between Romulans and anyone else would be, at the very least, highly frowned upon if not grounds for death in some more traditional locations in the fledgling Republic or outlying colonies. Having said that, certain appearance may not be applicable on all of them."īasically, they're saying that they became Bethesda for this: It's not a bug. The term Alien is considered as the customizable species. I contacted Cryptic's support about this, including the three images above as proof, and their answer was "Kindly note that these races being termed as Alien does not mean that every Alien from each faction came from the same race with similar features. This issue persists across all the slider bar functions on the head tab (body tab is unaffected). You'll notice the Cranium Slope option here is set to max with everything else set to minimum.Ĭompare that to Fed and KDF, where the Cranium Slope is MUCH more pronounced.

I've been trying to create a Rommie Alien character, and I do believe the character generator is broken.
