New Character: Centurion faceplate | Forums

[MaximusAquilus]

Just wondering if anyone from ubisoft can confirm. Will we be able to customise the Centurion so that the face place can be removed, it just doesn't look right to me.

Most likely not. It seems that they want to cover the face of all their warriors in some shape or form...

It's an immersion thing I think. If you can't see their face, it can be "you." I mean... unless you're a dude-bushi, valk-bro, or phallus-keeper. Again I assumed you're a dude but hey... assumptions.

That's a shame, I much prefer the open face design of historical roman helmets.

His full armor set is more knight with some roman inspiration than it is historically roman. Which is good imo, a historical roman would look completely out of place in this game.

Historically the late era Romans were very much like Knights. Hell some say that the tradition of Knights came from the Romans. Historically the modern concept of the Knight came from Charlemagne, however he had to get his concepts from somewhere, right?

also it means they don't have to animate mouths and facial expressions

I think the concept behind covering the majority of the face of our heroes is that it makes them much more mysterious and menacing. It makes it feel a bit more immersive without having us give you a predefined face for your centurion. This could all change in the future though - who knows?

But in the meantime, if you need to put a face to the hero...

Disclaimer - I've never seen it so no idea if it's good or bad ;p
