Okay I can’t think of any game that already does this so I will base this on what I have experienced using a mod for Skyrim.
The mod: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/21377/?

Ok as you know, in games when an NPC spawn, it is supposed to load a certain texture. And if you want for example two kinds of bears, one brown and one black you usually create two different NPC’s to load. This mod makes it so that every time an NPC spawns, it checks a folder for skins, and randomly picks one of the skins to load.
And I must say that this is easily one of the top 5 mods I have ever tried. It’s one of those things that when you use it, it kind of makes you look down on games that don’t have it, which is basically every other game.
It’s not a CRAZY amount of work I don’t think? And it really adds that little extra to game worlds that makes it feel real and a little random.
Of course this can be used to all different things like different iron sword skins, different skins for roses that makes some of them look more mature than others and even different townclothes skins.
Also if this is created by Warhorse directly, it will be soooo easy to add personal textures for modders.
Here’s some nightmare fuel btw:
