I don't understand this trend. It used to be, you either picked a character model and customized it with skins, or you had the ability to customize your character with a choice of faces, facepaint, gear, etc.
Now we get this nonsense where you have to choose a persona/personality preset. If you want to change their look you have to buy an entire outfit. There is no granular customization. The best you can hope for now is to buy or unlock an operator or specialist that you like, and an appearance that you like, or at least live with, because you're not going to be able to create/customize your own.
It's fucking stupid.
Not that I was happy with it, but MW 2019 and BO Cold War at least segregated the operators to each side. No more. Now, at the peak of its stupidity (who am I kidding, the stupidity is fucking limitless), you now have the same operators fighting on both teams, as in Vanguard and BF2042. The only hope you have for enemy ID is whatever red text might be above them, or perhaps some kind of red outline. The appearance of the characters themselves are no longer an indicator of friend or foe.
And everybody's doing it. Like a bunch of fucking lemmings. I mean, really, that's more or less what AAA FPS gaming has become. A long line of creatively bankrupt lemmings falling over each other to copy whatever the last one did successfully to appease shareholders. Clowns.
I don't want your idea of a cool character. I want to make my own, ya fucken knobs.
Bah.
