Line 17:
* ''[[World of Warcraft]]'', although the player can choose not to display it or transmogrify it into a different helmet of the same armor class.
* ''[[Maple Story]]'' has several face-obscuring helmets, but, graciously, they're limited to the lower levels. And there are still more helmets than there are faces.
* ''[[
* ''[[Global Agenda]]'', though there's something like 20 helmets per class per gender, and then colors you can layer on, but you undoubtedly spent a long time making your first character's face, and there are vastly more face-customizing options than helmets. Once you get your first helmet, you often never see your face again.
* Averted in [[DC Universe Online]], as the appearance of a character and the effects of their costume are not necessarily the same.

* ''[[The Elder Scrolls III Morrowind
** Especially glaring because your armor bonus depends on wearing armor over all parts of your body, so skipping the helmet because you want to show show your character's face means you're going to take a hit on your entire defense.
* ''[[The Elder Scrolls Four Oblivion|Oblivion]]'': Pretty much the same, although there are more helmets that leave at least parts of the head visible.
Line 34:
** Speaking of the full armor sets: the number one complaint about them is that they all have non-removable helmets which cover Shepard's face entirely. Since most of the game's [[Cutscene|cutscenes]] occur while (s)he's in his/her armor, this can cause some...strange situations, such as Shepard being able to drink liquor through his/her faceplate, or people recognizing Shepard by sight despite the fact that (s)he's dressed head-to-toe as a Collector.
** Wearing a helmet with a face mask also causes Shepard's voice to sound like it's coming from a speaker which can get annoying at times.
* ''[[
* ''[[Temple of Elemental Evil]]''; luckily, helms have no in-game effect, except for the magic ones (and most of them are headbands).
