hmm, you have a point there but think of it like this- the game/system changes the players appearance according to their desires and interests. if someone likes cute, small things they will appear to be something of that nature. basically, no one should look like their real appearance which is why the MC is an exception. maybe his father won’t necessarily think “oh, that’s 100% my son!” when he sees him because.. that’s kinda not how it works with other players. plus he is more red, such as his hair for example
Yes their game characters are based off of th we r ideal appearance. He wouldn't be able to recognize his dad since he doesn't know what username he registered with or what his dad's ideal "self" image is, however, he still looks the same except he's slightly younger than irl so it would be easier for his dad to recognize him rather than for him to hunt down his dad without knowing what he looks like
Why does he need his dad to recognize him? Doesnt he look the same as irl but younger and with red hair
