inZOI's launch has been officially delayed until March 2025, but its burgeoning fan community is still avidly playing around with the character creator of the seriously quirky life sim game. (Like, seriously.)
One key test of avatar customization tools is this: Can you use them to create an avatar who clearly resembles someone whose appearance is already etched into your subconscious -- i.e. a celebrity or character from popular culture?
Here's several community attempts to do just that, starting with the one above. Answers at the very end of this post!
Characters and their Reddit creators in descending order:
- Abigail from Stardew Valley by Begmeritz
- Sabrina Carpenter by Cultural_Ad4203
- Ariana Grande by Cultural_Ad4203
- Handsome Squidward from Spongebob by Spirtual-Promise402
In full transparency I was only able to correctly guess Ariana and Squidward, but I'm out of the loop on Sabrina Carpenter and didn't play Stardew long enough to engage with Abigail. Also, I'd say these are still at the "squint awhile and guess" level of verisimilitude as opposed to being immediately and obviously recognizable. But as players get better with the tools, I suspect that will improve.
