A key question to all of this is really what is this Core System? How does it work and how is it limiting customization options? All we have are speculations and nothing that actually explains it. It was such a vague answer...
I don't see changes happening any time soon, but on the matter of what I would give up to get more customization:
It's not really a good policy to take things away that have already been implemented. I for one wouldn't want that kind of insecurity with a character I've grown attached to, that some day a feature that matters to me could be removed since it's not popular among enough players anyway. I'm not saying tail length is something that I'm particularly excited about, just that option-removal not a good course of action to encourage.
On the other hand, not implementing something that we don't have yet anyway - that I'm more fine with. Like expanding on current character features with the next expansion rather than adding another race. I would definitely be willing to wait even longer for a new race if it meant something like doubling the options on the current ones. It's not just the Au Ra who could use some love!
Imagine being able to choose between a set of body types, or add a third version of all the races, like Wildwood/Duskwight/???, Highlander/Midlander/???, Sunseeker/Moonkeeper/??? (I could see some lore difficulties with that idea, though).
Unlocking features tied to specific faces, like scars, facial hair - or Au Ra horns - would greatly expand on character customization too.
More face types available, more tattoos, more horn types for Au Ra, more tail types for Au Ra and Miqo'te, maybe something like body hair option for at least male characters, muscle sliders on all races, eyebrow option for highlanders, a more saturated option for highlights in the hair section... I can dream, right? Since it has something to do with a "core system" I would speculate that doing all of these things would require about as much work as adding a complete new race would, if not more. But in my eyes it would be worth it
Aww, thank you! I see you're someone who's embraced the blue, as well :3
