Just a thought on Elezen.

[Senn]

I'd be down for some adjustments to elezen.

[Antonio_Xul]

Whats wrong with you? How is someone bringing up the fact that he'd like to play one but feels bothered by their proportion comparable to race bashing??
I completely agree with him. I love elezens but i just get tired of them after some time cos...at some point the proportions just bother me too much.

There isn't a God Damn thing wrong with me! I didn't say you were race bashing. I said threads like this that keep popping up turn into race bashing.

And I literally know no one who says "yo I play fem elezen cos Im into long necks and small heads".
They play them cos they like their beautiful faces and long legs, usually. And, ya know, the ears.

I like the longer neck, and have no complaints about the head. There someone has said it. I do like them for the legs and face, of course, but I like the entire build they have.

[Texa]

I like looking weird.

If you dislike Elezen's appearance, then Fanta to Hyur as that's all they'd be if your selfish requests actually produced results.

[Kaedan]

Its not for a want of less variety - I have zero issue with Roegadyn or Lalafell for instance (evil stinkers) - its just more that while I get Elezen are meant to be tall, elegant what have you they don't seem properly proportioned for it is all.

That's because they aren't supposed to be. Since FFXI, they have been lanky and disproportioned. That how they are supposed to be. And calling for them to be made more proportional is exactly calling for less variety and homogenization, as Emstidor said.

I think that's a little extreme. I main an elezen as you can plainly see and even then I do have issues with how they currently look, particularly the women. I don't think it's selfish to want more than two faces for that sex either, as frankly SE was the epitome of laziness when they turned what should have been facial feature options into two secondary heads for us to choose from. Ones with makeup and ones without. That's the ONLY difference between the first two faces and the second and it's an absolute joke. Especially as the elezen women are the /ONLY/ ones who get this half treatment as well. Beyond that however I don't mind their proportions at all, aside from the smallness of the women's heads but again you can trick that with the right hairstyle.

Female Highlanders have some terrible faces as well... and for whatever reason their necks are the only ones with droop (and I live sort of cursed because I cannot unsee it).

I often look at it and think they're some kind of bastard child, specially when I take into consideration all the highlander npcs in the game that are actually just midlanders labeled differently.

[Khalithar]

We Elezen are already perfect as is. Claims otherwise sound like a bunch of alternative facts to me.

Yeah, you guys are also the only ones who have a very blocky and unfinished face as well from what I remember when I was toying with alts. ): I don't think the aesthetics of any race need to be changed, but a lot of them need some love. Fem Elezen, Femlanders, and unlocking Aura horns to name just a few.
