I think SE should let us make shorter Elves like Alphinaud

I think it is worth to mention that Alphinaud and Alisaie aren't "children". They are as far as i remember adults after sharlayan law and idk if you can call a 16+ Alphinaud still a child. It's also not like Eorzea can be compared to our modern society anyways. Heck they even try to sell kiddos in Ul, not to mention the arcanist questline. If they would be still children i think they would have now a really heavy trauma, i would have one even as an adult after the stuff they saw and did.

Also i don't say that it's ok to draw lewd stuff with them, just pointing out what the lore says. The story is really rough sometimes and that also to children, because Hydaelyn isn't a nice place. Slavery, famines, MONSTERS EVERYWHERE, wars, bandits and pirates, more monsters and primals and whatever else there is...the world isn't nice and especially not towards kiddos, so they have to grow up fast.

Ofc that's not an argument for being able to play as kiddos, in my eyes that would be stupid. Wouldn't match the adventurer story behind the game well in my eyes. (Also we don't want to feed the creeps out there even more!)

I wanna play as a 5”4 Roegadyn.

So a dwarf? I'd probably play that lol.

Honestly Height doesn't equal age to be an honest hell girl I was taller than most adults in 7th grade lol.. So this issue of Age=height is totally incorrect. Next I agree you should be able down a lot lower in height than it manually puts on it. Maybe your character has dwarfism, or maybe they reply were cursed to be trapped at that height no matter how far they age.. I really don't understand why people are putting age on height when even earlier age has nothing to do with your height.

Next, My personality honestly is extremely immature hell my favorite show still is Winx club.. So I tend to want to go shorter on races because how I am mentally which honestly has lead to me being insulted when I play larger size characters in games.

You forgot about lalafells

The only issue I have with regarding the height is the game world seems really big, I had to Fantasia my female Midlander so she could sit on a Bar Stool and Counter without looking really small

Also Meru is Best LoD Girl

An option to make a half Elezen like Hilda, is pretty much everything i want. Not only is she perfect height, but cost wise, it would be so easy for SE to implement. A few original emotes, some new animations and voila.

But yea, the twins should stay off limit.

I'd like to see the height scalar expanded for all races. Humans come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and the current height ranges aren't fantastic for representing all the sizes of adults.

But I'm not for playable teens or kids, which is what the twins are. Though now with trusts showing the underage scions in pain, and Square themselves undressing them, and any community problem with ERPG already applying to Lalas... I think the only major argument against it is that resources are much better spent on other things.

I would totally be for a third hyur subrace though where they literally just add elezen ears to the model and call them half elves. Should be pretty simple asset wise, though I'm sure the actual implementation into the game is probably locked behind several levels of convolution that would prevent such a thing.

Being able to pick your race with different ages ranging from late teens to just shy of elderly would be pretty sweet.
