(My Facebook , Tumblr , and Twitter be here; I'd be very glad to connect with you!)Q: Will there be unisex items in Skye? Will there be a unisex* avatar body as a third or main option? Will I be able to equip the same items on both avatar bodies? --
A: As many items as possible [goal: 100% of them] will be made to fit both avatar bodies on Skye: Endless Realm. When designing the inventory interface, I added an option to switch freely between the avatar bodies (and skin colors) anytime Citizens would like to. I wanted to make sure these were more than just adequate features in the wake of not having a unisex avatar body type at this moment in time; with the notable approval and positive feedback from future-Skye-Citizens in the years '13 and '14, my team and I went forward with these ideas.

This is really interesting looking!! i like it but my first though when seeing these is that you cant really tell which one is male vs female at first glance. However it might just be that their faces are the same so maybe its just a prototype or something but that was a thought i had. but other than that it looks really good

I've been so anxious for this to be released, it's hysterical. Though, one question I do pose is, will there be different body types within the male and female archetypes? If not, it's just a suggestion. A suggestion that would probably be a ton of work, so no biggie.
