Echoes of Aincrad Demo Lacks Avatar Customization Due to Sword Art Online Story Setting

The demo for Echoes of Aincrad, a game set in the Sword Art Online universe, does not include avatar customization. According to RPG Site, this design decision is tied directly to the base setting and narrative timing within the SAO storyline, meaning the absence is an intentional, lore-consistent choice rather than a missing feature.
