This thread is about butts.

[AmyNeudaiz]

Version 1.0 was accidently launched with a bugged Miqo'te model that used the human bottom half when not in smallclothes. The current model is what was intended.

I can't really back that up, just take my word for it.

Don't try and compare them either, if you have screenshots. Some kind of aspect ratio change between 1.0 and 2.0 or something like that... No proof on that one either. Word's gold though.

You get the point.

Took me under 1 minute. THERE YOU GO

Hello,
Lead designer Takeo Suzuki here.

We understand that you all care deeply for the detail and shape of your characters, and while the development team is really happy about this, we would like to keep the specifications for character’s butts as they are.

I’d like to explain a bit about why we changed the shape of character model’s butts. It all began when Yoshi-P and the character team sat down and reconsidered what should be prioritized for players when we moved from 1.0 to A Realm Reborn.

Based on this discussion it was decided to place emphasis on the below:
• New races (male Miqo’te, female Highlanders, and female Roegadyn.)
• Increase the amount of content and the amount of reward items (equipment and weapons)
(We want to make a team that can create more than four times the amount of rewards compared to what there was originally.)

As a result of thinking about what could be done to fulfill the above objectives all while converting everything over and optimizing all the data by completely remaking the graphics engine, we decided to reduce the cost by simplifying items that were too complex when making them. One aspect of this was the graphical display of waist equipment.

I deeply apologize for those of you who were really partial to what Miqo’tes looked like in 1.0, but this decision was made so we could relaunch with new races and a lot of new equipment. We will be implementing a wide variety of really cool looking equipment moving forward, and we appreciate your understanding on this.

If you look at this thread there are posts showing examples of the change. If you look at the previous thread this came from (which is locked now) you will find more examples.

EDIT: I am arguing the point that you even argue the validity of this. It's astounding. It's like a person walking into a bar with blood, broken glass, and broken tables everywhere saying "Where's proof there was a fight here?"
On top of that you edit your post to insult me? Wow.
