    Why? Not all of them would work and such a move only encourages the developers to continue creating hairstyles to fit the 'androgynous' and 'feminine' aesthetics rather than the 'masculine' aesthetics simply through the very nature of trying to design hairstyles to fit every possible race and gender combination out there.

    Personally I'd rather there be less focus on hairstyles moving forward given that we've been given a lot already since the game relaunched and other aspects of character creation have been neglected as a result.

    They can still unlock all hairstyles and release masculine hairstyles aswell. I too want more faces, tattoos etc, but SE has said that the memory blablabla is full on those parts, that is why Au Ra can not mix faces and horns.

    Customization in general is very lacking in this game, but unless they fix the hardware/software issue that keeps being mentioned, I see no new faces or extra stuff like beards etc.

    I agree. Of all aspects of the game currently, I'm not hoping for an improvement in hair styles..
    I don't see what benefit could come from removing gender restrictions either.

    If anything, adjustments for clipping are what need to be addressed, not a lack of hairstyles. Because we have a lot.

    The amount of hairstyle variety in this game is actually quite pathetically low actually. I mean heck there's literally trashy F2P MMORPGs out there with far greater hairstyle variety! It's pretty sad when a game you have to pay to play can't even manage to supply a greater variety of hairstyles and character customization in general.

    Besides it's not like creating a few extra hairstyles would take away from the other development aspects of the game. Heck they wouldn't even need to bother thinking up more on their own if they just make all the runners-up of the hairstyle contest into actual hairstyles in the game.
