Here below a very nice feature from CK3.
Obviously, this kind of customization is definitely not uncommon for RPGs
I wonder if something similar would be included in BL2. (eventually they could borrow some code from PDS devs.. ;) )

BTW, this 57 seconds video it's exactly what I would expect to see, with the message "BL2 is live and well , and we are working hard to finish the job"

I believe that Florian Schwarzer confrimed that we will not get sliders ... but multiple options to combine.
I shall edit this post, if i find that video, where it was mentioned.

//edit:
Here 36:20 cca

Agree. The advantage of sliders seems marginal to me. Personally I'm always glad when games give me presets to chose from rather than making me pick out noses and ears.

Our character creator uses presets, so mix and match of different options rather than sliders.

I would not point out the technical difference between using slides or presets.
I agree with you that both of them are quite effective.

The main point would been the small video (less than a minute) , as a very effective way to show something about the game development (without any risk to be a spoiler).
Especially in this period where a lot of people here wonder if something is really moving behind the scenes.

Not sure if this will help or not. This is a video showing Battletech's character creator (a game developed by Harebrained Schemes, another studio under the Paradox Banner).
The obvious caveats is that this is face & upper body only, & is from a game over 2 years old, but hopefully it will give some inkling into the diveristy that presets can offer
You need to skip ahead to the 8:35 mark.
As I said, hope it helps .
