Can every race have one boring /cpose?

The title is self explanatory, but i'll elaborate.

About maybe half of the races have an un-boring default pose.

Male Miqo'te's unusually wide legged claw hand pose.
Male Elezen's proper elegant pose
Female Elezen's proper elegant pose
Female Highlander's wide stance
(Maybe female Miqo'te's slouchy stance)
Female Au Ra's wobbly leg "look at how kawaii I am", stance.
Male Au Ra's feet being together at the heel.

The thing about these not-boring poses is that you will either love them or hate them, and I don't think any of them have a boring pose to switch to if you don't like it. It interferes with your ability to enjoy a race you like if you hate how they stand.

So what I suggest is to give everyone a Hyur-like stance as a /cpose option, so that way everyone will have something bland to switch to if they like the race, but can't stand their standing.

You may not love bland poses, but it's hard to hate them, and i'm sure a sizable sum of people would at least enjoy the option.

Edit: To compensate the boring pose races, we could give them a not-boring pose.

Would like more pose options in general, preferably ones that don't have you do a motion before going into them.

I would really like a more relaxed pose for my Male Miqo, the extreme claw-hand especially annoys me.

Yeah... before /cpose existed, I really hated the male miqo stance, particularly since SE likes sticking us healers in skirts so often. That said, I'm happy enough with some of the options and if you set the slider delay to 0, your character immediately goes into it.

I'm always for more options and wouldn't mind a neutral one.

The main reason I made this post is because I really liked female Au Ra, but the overly cutesy poses got to me after a while. I could make it look less so with certain gear, but it was hard to make decent looking glamours that didn't give me the "look at how adorable/sexy I'm trying to be" look.

I like my serious looking characters.

I knew about that, I took advantage of it the split second I discovered it.

I'd kill for access to a lot of other races' poses but I have my doubt that they'll honestly implement even your request, sadly. I get the impression that they don't want to fill up the emote menu with tons of new emotes, expressions and - on a different level - poses. The more idle stances they add, the more you have to filter through the /cpose option unless they change the system to allow you to be more specific.... and I imagine that'd be seen as tedious.

I'd love if they made all poses available and you could specifically select which five(or however many there are at the moment) you want to appear in the /cpose cycle for whenever you click through it. Not an idle stance but I realllly want the female Highlander sitting pose!

I would like to see more Weapon Drawn Poses.

As of now we only have 1 Weapon Drawn Pose for each Job. I would like to see a Race Specific version of these pose.

This I can get behind. I find the idle pose for DRG... kinda bleh. You look so stiff, and it doesn't fit on my Hyur. And also my using Longinus Zeta for glamour makes it worse looking. (I completed it right after Alex came out, and I'm gonna use it come hell or high water!)

I actually changed from Hyur Male to Catdude, because I hated that extremely wooden looking default 1.0 pose so much. I'd definitely be up for more varied /pose options though. For instance, give each race 2-3 default constant pose motions. Not the random roulette thing we get if we sit still a predetermined amount of time, but an actual full time pose option or two. Hell, for that matter give us a few movement motion options!

I would like 3 "drawn weapon" poses for each class at least.
I would like "job" based idle stances.

^ This, this I think is smart.

I feel there are a lot of emotes I've love to see in the game, like one of your character sneezing. I'd also like a /cpose option for when laying down on the beds. I personally hated my hyur female having her arm propping her head up, yet in the inn room she has such a cute sleeping pose. I'm an au'ra now and love the sleeping pose, but sadly I can't face my EB partner when he lays in the bed next to me. Personally I'd like more job emotes, sitting/laying down emotes, and more emotes for EB partners like a proper kiss emote, maybe a carry emote, maybe hand holding.

Oh god it's one of these threads again...

I would be happy if I could /doze in a FC house bed, then /cpose to the sleeping animation of the inn rooms. Maybe if I kept it that way I'd also lay down in it like I do the inn room next time.

I switched to a female human for a grand total of about 20 minutes yesterday and while I hated almost everything about the way they animated I'll be damned if I don't love that completely bland, straight up and down idle pose. It's the absolute best and I wish every race had it.

Female Miqo'te is alright, but the slight slouch keeps it from being as perfect. I was a male Miqo'te for a while and while I love 'em, their default idle pose is ghastly. Those friggin' claws, man.

I vote for this. More neutral bland idle poses!

Male Highlander idle pose FTW :p

Only thing about catboys that annoys me is the way the tail looks like it's all coiled like a snake.

Blech.

You can do that.

You must have checked the wrong box (because there isn't a box to check, but there is one if you want random poses)

All you have to do is use the slider.

I always figured the claw hands pose *was* the boring pose for the male Miqo'te. And the stance isn't really unusually wide, it's actually pretty commonly used for displaying standing character models, called a square up, or simply 'stance' pose. I actually stand a lot like that at work to help keep my knees more relaxed so they don't get sore from standing for hours on end.

I always kind of liked the claw hand thing with the males, and was a bit surprised the females did not do it as well, as I thought it gave them more than just ears and tails that look feline to set them apart from the other races. It was a nice touch you don't see a lot of other games or even series work in, and to me separated them a bit further from being merely nekomimi (cat-looking people), to actually being more like a race of people who exhibit feline features. Their lore and mannerisms make their appearance more than just superficial.

Much as human fingers automatically tend to curl when left in a resting position at our sides due to the tendons in our hands not being acted on, I always figured the miqo'te just had a tighter neutral tendon pull, kind of making their hand shape a bit like a cat's paws. This isn't a 'pose' so much as just their natural, default resting position.

The only thing I like about old threads is seeing which users are still active to this day.

Male Roegadyn is the king of boring idle.

I will put my hand on my hip while idle and there's nothing you can do about it.

i just feel that male Miqo is the worst offender because every other idle pose is just a slight variation of a "teapot" pose same hand on hip.

it is worth bringing up
Can only speak for Female Miqo'te
despite all those new pose update, all we got is either we pose like a model with weird bone issue or some super outgoing and cheerful stance
other than the very standard "no pose" I couldn't find anything ambivert/quiet to fit my Keeper of the Moon

I would like all the gender based wep poses for everyone and even more bstance and vpose etc

I really want the female Hyur "hands infront" pose so bad on my Au Ra. :/
They should just unlock poses for everyone. Still waiting for the Princess Run as well.

I would like a way to change pose during gpose.
