I dunno i personally see this as lazy on their part if anything. I love ffxiv so please understand where im coming from but most of the scion attire in the past came with hairstyles i.e Minfillia, Thancred, and Y'shtola. For some reason tho this one just sort of comes out as awkward and lazy. Obviously the item was scaled to fit other races but in viera's case the ears just simply clip out. I have seen older gear for even miqot's (i dont remember the item name but it simply had holes for the ears to pop out of from. Also the hair should have been seperate from the outfit itself instead of being on the hood. I personally feel like this items is a missed oppurtunity for Viera's to get a new hairstyle, imo.

The best thing about the outfit is that the hair is tied to the hood. Finally a real hood without that cloth underneath wich covers the head and actual hair is sticking out instead. I have wanted this since I have seen Kriles hood the first time. Too bad the outfit is not dyeable...

Has someone a picture with a Miqo'te wearing the hood? Are there "double ears" or not? Sadly the picture on the mogstation didn't show catgirls.

Oh, indeed. Thank you. So no double-ears. Well, now I'm tempted...

Either A. Hide ears or B. make the hood bunnie made.
1. I was hoping the hair would be separated...
2. Don't see why this is genderlocked at all honestly. It's similiar
to what is in game or at least give us a male alternative like Riku's
post with the Devout picture from FF3. This is really lazy... -

If you want tall Bunny ears to fit on a hooded outfit with cat ears, then we should get a new original outfit. Not Krile's outfit. -

The only excuses I can make for them, being that I have experience in 3D modeling, is that retrofitting a mesh onto a skeleton takes a lot of time, but you don't need a whole freaking team to do this, just one person. The ears(viera) are obviously separate from the head, but from their perspective it'd probably be immersion breaking to remove the ears entirely for the hood. This begs the question seen in the above post. That requires altering the mesh(adding ear sleeves), and I think from Yoshida's PoV, it would deviate too much from the original design.
Still, you don't need 100 people to do this(low time and staff strain would likely be the excuse given). Make changes to a mesh for a specific race one time. -

Honestly if they are gonna gender lock things then could they try and release an male npc outfit with a female one. Coulda gave us Alphinaud's outfit from ANY expansion so us males got some love, too.
