For all Lalafell kind, please tell me this is just an incomplete benchmark model...

Personally, I think the Lala should be sat on its head, using those 2 horn things (ears?) as hand holds.

lol! that would be cute xD

...I'm confused, what is a lalafell? o.O


(Joke aside - yeah, I'd think it's just bechmark weirdness. That dragon mount was clearly designed with Au Ri in mind... that shouldn't mean no proper scaling for all the other races. :/)

[FrejyaAthenes]

I agree, actually, MOST races look pretty awful riding the Dragon (I've tried a few) even Au Ra Female is pretty awkward... but Au Ra Mael? He OWNS it... oh man... Au Ra male rocks the dragon...

Dragon, dragon! Rock the dragon!
Seriously though, yeah it does seem designed for Au Ra, but I'd like to think they'll make it less awkward for other races by June.

Lalafels are little angels - they just don't need their cupid wings! OT: Don't worry it will probably be fixed!

I was thinking the same thing when I did the benchmark with my lalafell, I was so disapointed...

Also, I'd like to show the poor animation clipping we have as a lalafell, you can see here my spear going through my body, really ?

I guess that's part of the pole dancing act? xD

Clipping in this game is really bad in general.
I have a Hyur with long hair that gets completely destroyed.
Here's just one example:



Things like this have been in the game forever, with very little mention from the devs about plans to fix this stuff. I only remember them commenting about Miqo'te tails which are also notorious for clipping terribly.
Hate to break it to you but that Spear clipping and these poorly done mount appearances probably aren't going to change on release. You probably never noticed it but there are some pretty terrible mount poses already in the game that never got attention - you might have noticed if you made it a point to collect a lot of them - but it is also race dependent.

I feel like the benchmark contains 'completed' content as a preview of what's to come, and what you see is what you're gonna get.

Can't grab a picture because I'm at work but if you think clipping is bad, go wear the dreadwyrm tank chest piece along with the dread shield....two armor pieces...from the same set, clipping each other to high heaven.

THAT DESIGN SE....THAT DESIGN.
