Please add Hilda's hairstyle for all!

Show your support for one of the best ponytails the game has (imo), that we currently do not have access to!
Dear Yoshi-P, please add Hilda's hairstyle for players to wear!

Thank you.

She has a nice hairstyle that I think would look great on a lot of characters.
I think it's been requested countless times already, so I hope SE eventually takes notice.

As a sidenote, I think it would be really cool if they added hybrid races as an option in the character creator, so you could be just like Hilda.

Yeah isn't she just a hyur model, but with elezen ears? I think the devs did make comments about this, but can't remember what that was. "something something limitations with the engine"

As for the Hair, yes, I support this as it should have been added a long time ago.

I am here as always to support this. Years are passing by and still nothing not even a mention of it.

I would love Hilda's hair and to be a half Elezen is something I wish they had given us.

The vast majority of "unique" character models are recycling base models from something else, like most Garleans are either Hyur or Elezen models if you look up the NPC in the database.

I'm surprised they haven't released it at this point, yet Durante's hairstyle came out almost immediately with next to no demand for it that I can recall. I don't even think there was enough of a gap for a demand to be created.

Again, I don't recall the instant demand. Especially considering it was released in the subsequent patch after Durante's reveal. Hilda OTOH has been on demand en masse for YEARS. Forgive me that I don't place FFXIV gossip at the highest of my priorities.

It has nothing to do with just recycling base models. She is half hyur, half elezen. Basically a half-elf. It is stated in game that she was born to a hyurian woman and her father was a high ranking elezen who refuses to claim her as his own.

She was created during a time SE was dabbling with introduing mixed race npcs. The engine limitation was about not letting players play mixed race characters because it would be too difficult and come with too many restrictions, esp with lala and roe. Like there was no way to make a half lala, half roe and even a half lala, half elezen would be problematic due to the engine, the armor models and such. They would basically have had to make options for all possible combinations which would have been a massive undertaking. Then you also have certain implications that came with a race that looks like a child mixing with very adult looking races it and how that would be interprited to a non-player audience.

They have mostly just abandoned the concept.
