Upcoming Mass Effect-like Exodus himbo-fies protagonist after fans complain about his face
He's been looksmaxxing. He got the Chad surgery.
Archetype Entertainment has revealed the revamped appearance of the protagonist in their upcoming sci-fi RPG, Exodus. It appears that the original face of Jun Aslan, the game's protagonist, did not meet the expectations of many fans. A brief cinematic trailer showcasing the new Jun, accompanied by a cameo by Matthew McConaughey, was released. Jun's new appearance features striking cheekbones that could cut glass, giving him a more refined and handsome look.
Previously, Jun was described as having a somewhat schlubbier appearance, but it was primarily due to the standards of the entertainment industry. The new look makes him more attractive than most people he encounters. Although the player can customize Jun's appearance with hairstyles, hair color, facial hair, and tattoos, the game seems to restrict players to a single face per character sex, limiting their personalization options compared to other RPGs.
Fans who were attached to Jun's original appearance find something endearing about him before he received a makeover. The author expresses a preference for the original, controversial character model over the new, more realistic ones. Nevertheless, the studio is attempting to appeal to fans by adopting a Mass Effect successor aesthetic, featuring a handsome protagonist.
However, the challenge remains in creating a custom character that looks as appealing as the original, beloved Jun. The author invites readers to share their opinions on whether Jun should have kept his original face or if the new look suits him better, in the comments section.
