[What if]there's new race, Yoshi-P changes his mind

Lot of WOW PTSD popping up in this thread.

"Let's add a race that is that race we already have but different eye colors."

No

Hey, more options are never bad, I say! At the end of the day, it's more realistic albeit given the devs' track record, not by a whole lot to expect more options be added to existing races than entirely new ones. But unless they sort out their funky code it might just have to be in the form of "new" races lmao, if stuff like the Midlander stubble, or Hrothgar hair or etc. is any indication

It needs to be a smol race. We only have one so far
Lalafells need a buddy. :'<

I would love playable Ixali.

With an eye to something that wouldn't cause more excuses of issues due to unique skeletal rigs, i feel any more Hrothgar, lala, or Viera like (i don't honestly buy this as they only got ears additions), is just more trouble than they would be worth.

Couple this with plans to up scale existing models as soon as 7.0 (fingers crossed), & my hope is for Half Elezen.

Being something that is both simple to impalement & already existing in the canon of the in-games lore, taking advantage of adding more clans/ tribes to existing race options seems like the most easily to do, without breaking the proverbial bank, small indie company SE is...

Hrothgar & Viera(to a lesser extent), showed how poorly more unique models are handled, the best bet would be to offer more customization to what we have.

Aura horn & face separation rather than combinations, Scale color options/ customizations.
Miqo 'te more tail options, fur/hair color pattern options
Hyur Highlander eyebrows.
Separation of facial hair & face combinations, additions of facial hair options to all male characters of all races. (Elezen, Hyur, Roe, lala)
Sliders to change proportions/ aspects of race models. (with in reason as seen in those already implemented in game)

This..I really would like some large and small bushy beards for all races.

No more races please, especially not while ShB races have the problems they do. Wouldnt be too much effort to add a Garlean option for Hyurs though. I might even fantasia for that.

I'd be happy if they just added new sub-races with minor tweaks, like Au Ra with red scales. Or make Hyur-ezen available by slapping pointy ears onto the midlander model per how Hilda looks.

I'd like to see more options for existing races first, just to flesh out character creation a bit. For example, au ra horns are tied to face. What if this weren't a thing? We'd see more variety. Or, hell, disregard Au Ra. What about hroths and viera, like maybe let them put on a hat first lol.
That being said, a playable loporrit race would probably be popular as hell. I wouldn't personally want to see them all over the place, but I've heard people asking for it a lot.

What's that, add playable Bangaa you say? I can't argue with that.
