Do not add character creator to Java edition

Mixing and matching a bunch of premade accessories is basically the complete antithesis of the soul of the Minecraft skin system. Please do not alter the Java skin system in any way.

  It wouldn't alter the skin system in a big way.
  If you dont want to use the character creator, then dont, you still have all your normal skins.

  Agreed.

  And please, reconsider adding it to Bedrock edition, too.

  I'm not saying "I don't like the character creator and don't want to use it."

  I'm saying "the character creator is harmful to the established skin system and it should not be added to the game."

  I agree that they shouldn't take away what we already have, but I think adding to it (custom hair & limb models and such) would be nice to see.

  Also adding it for players that want to make there own skin but don't feel confident in making one from scratch, could be nice.

  So I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree. (but if they were going to take away from what we have currently in any way I 100% agree)

  I think the main reason why it was added to bedrock in the first place is because some platforms dont have the option to use custom skins, and so have absolutely no way to use them. I personally would have preferred a workaround to implement the existing skin system onto other platforms, but this is a decent way of doing it.

  Also, I dont think theyre planning on it being added to java anyways, since it involves the dreaded microtransactions and would be redundant with all java platforms having a skin system.
