    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.

    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.

    Yeah I mentioned in another thread, it's not that I don't see the faces work in concept, it's that they look really poorly executed. And the textures don't help either: Highlander faces seem to always look better in dark skin tones because it covers the weird blurry "spots-that-look-like-black-freckles-maybe?".

    Edit: I guess they look more like a rugged (or rather, textured) skin attempt, but regardless, there should be an option, and since it's blurry/pixelized it just looks like you're dirty in light skintones imho.

    When Lyse said she was a Highlander, I was just like, "haha, what."
