We have read through the comments here and can understand your feelings regarding the Hildibrand emote.

Since Hildibrand is a very popular character that players want to emulate, we introduced his special pose so they could have fun pretending to be their favorite detective. I understand that there can only be one Highlander… pose, but we ask that you appreciate that other adventurers have taken such a strong interest in your style.

As for the request to add a new pose for Highlanders, although we understand your feelings, we currently do not have any plans to add this.

This is just a hypothetical, but say in the future we added another popular NPC from another race, and that NPC is cherished by everyone, just as Hildibrand has captivated us, and then adventurers fall in love with that NPC; in that case we may do something similar to what we did this time.

In the future, if we decide to add individual race-specific poses, we’ll use all your suggestions during the planning process.

There are these things called eyebrows. We don't have them or a pose now!(hint: give us eyebrows) ;)

Personally I was hoping that this was going to be the "Gentlemanly" pose they were adding.

Thank you for replying! Finally dev listen our request :D

It'd be more of a bummer for everyone else to lose the emote of their favourite character, because some people wanted to keep it all to themselves. Don't you Highlanders know that immitation is the biggest form of flattery? ;)

Compromise should be Highlanders getting a new emote.

Or ONE eyebrow option because... even though in the lore they do it to be more intimidating... that isn't to say 100% of them do it.

So much whining because you can't be a special snowflake anymore. Boo hoo.

Aside from the subtle variations between Highlander male default /pose and /hildy, did you guys really think they'd never release that iconic Hildibrand pose for everyone at some point in time? Hildibrand is a Highlander, if you want to blame anything for you muscleheads losing your special snowflake pose, blame the fact Hildibrand was chosen to be a Highlander rather than a "flagship" race such as Miqo'te or Lalafell.

Granted, I'm of the mind that /pose from all races should just be unlocked for everyone, as it lets everyone have their own unique character rather than using the exact same pose as everyone else within their race. But maybe that's just me.

I totally read that as an option to have only one eyebrow. Thinking about it... That would probably be more terrifying than having no eyebrows.

Well to be fair we basically didn't get an emote, just our normal pose with a teeth sparkle. lol

Your end made me less annoyed but the beginning I feel is an unfair statement, its not like we're all the same now - literally Highlanders are the only one to be sharing a pose, everyone else is a snowflake but we're not. And somehow people are saying we're being selfish because we're the only ones not unique anymore. We're asking to be like everyone else again.

But I agree to your end statement that a "movement" does not necessarily need to be locked and everyone could/should technically be able to emulate everyone else (with physiological differences being represented, like miqote get the tail thing cause.. tail). This isn't true though, and if it was I'd feel absolutely "equal" but atm Highlander is down one and everyone else is up one.. its not quite equal, or about being selfish.

Ah, well. Let's just give everyone the option to crouch like a male Miqo'te, then. It's all good, right?
