A "hide tails" option for Miqo'te and Au'ra characters?

Man I miss the days when armor had different models to accommodate tails... Frankly tail clipping is the least egregious example of the problem by far. Hairstyles are worse and more noticeable, sleeves and coats are horrendous and let's remember how robes and long skirts sheer through our very legs when there's a breeze. If people really want to hide parts of their character model because that one particular part of clipping out of dozens really bothers them, I say fine add the option since we won't have to see how ridiculous they appear with parts lopped off them.

The skirts don't bother me quite as much as everything else, but hairstyles clipping through armor annoys me to no end, especially hairstyles that I genuinely like.

I feel you on the hair thing. My character's current hairstyle actually clips through her cheek. Right on through like they didn't test it at all but honestly I only notice it if I'm zoomed way in but ugh

Fun fact, I didn't even notice the Plague Bringer's coat had a collar until I zoomed in and wondered what those black spiky bits clipping through my character's hair were coming from. Usually I don't notice at all, so I just ignore it. I do occasionally get a little bothered by the tail opening on the coat not accounting for the spiked-top tail option, but it's hardly a deal breaker to me.

This isn't XI, it's XIV. What the developers did then may or may not ever happen now.

Perhaps try responding rationally rather than emotionally since the more you ad hominem and shout at a person, the less inclined they are to even care about your own opinions or what you have to say.

Stop looking to be offended after every turn just because another person doesn't agree with you. Using the word "If" does not mean that anything is implied to you directly. That's the whole reason of the word "if", "if" you did think that.

Take a chill pill and don't respond with an attitude when I never even gave you one.

I'm not giving you attitude, I am simply telling you directly to stop making things up. You put words in my mouth and I clarified. I am not emotional over here, but I am most definitely not a fan of people who twist things around just to try and make some point.

I didn't twist anything that you had said or put words in your mouth, it was a general message that could be taken by anyone, and if you took it as such, then you didn't read the content of my message correctly and took it way more personal than a normal person should.

You're emotional and giving me attitude, please stop it.

If your only rebuttal is "you're making things up", then we have nothing more to discuss because personally, I don't feel like conducting a conversation with you any longer if this is the way you're going to act.

Why offer a hide tail option when people should fantasia into a better race.

I wanted to play a female Au Ra when I started, but the tail along with being crazy tiny were the drawbacks. I'm not a fan of tails, but I would never want this even if it is an option as it is part of their identity, and I am all about maintaining identity and uniqueness in this game.

I feel like they would have to fix the armor since tail is part of the race's identity. But if they did that, people would ask for them to fix all other clipping as well (hair, mounts, etc). So I just feel like this is unlikely to happen. Plus I like my tail even if it clips terribly sometimes.

The tail should be hidden while wearing the chocobo suit. It looks ridiculous with it.
