Au Ra Character Creation Feedback

[Zentsa]

I'm a bit disappointed with it imo. Only 4 faces, no horn choices, no real difference between the clans aside from skin tone, no scale color. I see a lot of #4 face patterns rolling in, be ready lol

Every Race has only 4 Faces.

[Nestama]

I wanted to make a short male Au Ra but they're all Elezen size even at the shortest height, really unfair since female Au Ra can shrink to the size of a Miqote.

I think they can be shorter than Miqo'te...

[Tonkra]

The Bad:
I am very disappointed that horn and face type are not separate options.
Male Au Ra Dance is... terrible
Male Brows are ALL jutting out very far ><
Scale colours are not customize-able
Male Au Ra hair types are very comical, no good short hair types.


.

I Agree with most points.. but this.. (bold letters)

Comical? manga/ff style maybe


Im really glad about these cool Au Ra hairstyles.

I mean... eh... remember Seymour from FFX? :




This is FF style ,)


cool as they are:

I've been critical over Au Ra for several things.

After playing around with the character creation, I can say that I have made an Au Ra face that I do like.

However:
- The horns on said face are extremely bulky and look...off with it. Can't change that without changing the face, so nice job there SE....ahem.
- All of the facial options look cute when I feel strongly that there should at least be some options that look fierce, and some that do not look like they belong with either Miqote or Hyur facial options. That said, the character I chose was pretty yet "rebellious"looking, though that still is no substitute or excuse for the lack of variety.
- Still not enjoying that shortness. 5'2 is the max height, really?
- Scale designs and colors need more options. Why this isn't already a thing, who knows.
- Body shape looks too similar to Miqote, though it does look a bit less skinny to me? Might just be proportions causing this illusion.
- Not liking the emotes. They are not mysterious or intimidating, and rival Miqote in cuteness

A few random good things:
- I didn't see any clipping with helmets, and there are a few Au Ra hairstyles that make me really want them
- The eye options are a nice touch
- Skin colors look fine
- The voices for the most part sound much more natural to me than many other races' voices

Still not feeling the urge to change. I put my Hyur in the creation to try on the new hairstyles and still liked her more than any of the Au Ras I made.

Good:
Male Au Ra dance is perf, please do not change
All Female are models

Bad:
Why can't I make a short male I want one the height of the females


Sexier than I thought. Muscle tone for me is just right (not too much) There could always be a slider for that, though. Can never go wrong with sliders.
The default Xaela Male that appears is really really nice looking

- I am HIGHLY disappointed that faces and horns are tied together, with only four options at that, and absolutely no sliders whatsoever for horns.
- I think scales should have been given a colour pallette, even a small one, with dark shades for the Xaela and light shades for the Raen.
- I like that tails have different shapes, but I am horribly disappointed that we cannot change their colour.
- Some hairstyles seem to give extra horns. It's something that bugs me because we can change hairstyle in-game. How are we going to explain the appearance/disappearance of new horns on our heads?
- The limbal rings are very interesting. Happy they don't have odd-colouring. Four-color eyes would've been too much.
- The "special features" (renamed 'scales' for Au Ra, even though it includes eyeliners…) category is again dependant on what face you select. It's something I was never fond of even with the previous races.
- I really like their emotes. They are a lot more tranquil and serious, something we really needed after the overly vivacious spree most of races (I think, except Elezen) displayed in 2.0. Great fodder for serious/gloomy characters.

Females:
- Love the shortness.
- Their dance emote is very sweet and elegant, it reflects them awesomely.
- Their voices are mostly atrocious. They can't laugh, and their /no's are too vocal. Their /angry is scary <_< some make me think of harpies.
- Their hairstyles are elaborated and interesting, though they all seem quite "fancy" and not quite how I'd do my hair for everyday activity.

Males:
- Their hairstyles are all freaking amazing. Perhaps too amazing, to the point the older hairstyles all look kind of "meh" on them, wasted.
- Their voices are all very awesome.
- Their dance….. what is that….?
- Their idle stance is awful.
- Their tails are a bit shorter in comparison to female's proportions. Myeh.

Some of the things I agree with, some not so much.
Like the scale colouring, I think it's fine as it is.
Tail colour, nahhh... Miqo'tes tail colour go by their hair colour.
Extra horns on some hairstyles bother me so much also! (more on females than males)
I'm happy we're able to affect if they have lot of scales on face or not.
Males hair is really funny. Too much flying caused them to go up so much? (or Cloud's gravity defying hair?)
Females /angry is RIDICULOUS. LOL

I just might change to Au'ra. Maybe.

[Selli]

I think they can be shorter than Miqo'te...

They are shorter.




First is min height min chest.
Second is max height max chest.

[Burningskull]

after playing around some more i wish the male's tails were longer and went to their ankles. that said i'm also glad they are not locked into a horizontal position like the male miqote's tails.

Raen are considerably shorter than Xaela. Perhaps make the shortest male Raen you can and see how he is against the NPCs in the benchmark?

huh? Raen and Xaela have the same height settings.
