[DEV REQUEST] Balancing Character Customization

[CuteWhisper]

Honestly I'd prefer if they removed the option to toggle on/off limbal rings from Au Ras (they should always have limbal rings, like how Dunesfolk always have glossy eyes and Seekers always have cat pupils) and turn that tab into a Horn tab instead, where you can choose both main and secondary horn sets. The fact that main horns are locked to faces and secondary horns are locked to certain hairstyles is just plain dumb.

Id so be okay with this as long as we can change our horns, it's a really big feature and yet we are stuck with either horns we like less with a face we like or vice versa

They did say there was a technically limitation on the amount of variables they could give each race. While they could potentially give a lot of options for individual traits (hairstyle, face, skin tone, tails), they are limited in how many traits are available to be changed on each race. That is simply due to how character model data is stored apparently. I suspect this is one of the reasons horns tend to be paired with faces on Au Ra and races like Au Ra and Miqote don't have muscle sliders.

Its such a lame excuse though. You look at other games and they have better character creation than FFXIV. Im not saying they are better games as a whole but come on if if they can pull it off, SE should be able to do the same. If you look at what he said before 3.0 came out, he clearly said in one of the conventions that we will be able to customize so many things with Au Ra and they are so lacking. I like the race but they really missed the mark and its kinda sad.
