Just a thought on Elezen.

Do I wish we could get adjustments? YEP. A new run animation cause God oh mighty its awful. Smaller hands, less broader shoulders. a shorter neck. But all in all I am very happy with my elezen <3

"I love my Elezen, but I would like 90% of what separates the race from others changed to be the same as others!"

Do you people even think about things before posting? Don't worry, that's a rhetorical question and you don't need to answer that.

Honestly, I'm just glad i'm not anime waifu #1000000.

the blandest hyur... they quite frankly almost all look like NPCS.

because they have the sense that every character needs to be a walking waifu.

I think people go out of their way to bash things....

Okay, I like Elezen and respect people's choice to play them, but seriously... this road goes both ways.

Excuse me? Elezen are a form of elves. And people play elves for their unique features which are first and foremost ELVEN EARS...and in this game, also the tall slender bodies.
So saying that odd body proportions is what makes an elezen is IMO an insult to this race.

Do YOU even think before posting? Wow. Rhetorical question or not, its BS.

You really need to sit the f' down and process to full understanding a very, very simple fact here.

Their body proportions aren't odd. They are Elezen proportions.

If you don't like it, Fanta to another race. You have no place to ruin the race for the overwhelming majority who play it just to serve your own selfish ideals.

I bounce between races but female elezen is always my go to. Only thing that irritates me(same could be said for every race except Au Ra) is that the older hairstyles are so BLEH compared to the new ones. Some of them color so damn bad it drives me nuts if I like a older hairstyle but it turns out it doesn't dye right. If I could change one thing about female elezen, it would be the way the eye makeup looks. it just looks off to me /shrug

Show me some good catgirls and au ra girls that don't look the same. 90% of them are the same. It's part of why I don't want to be the same as everyone else but if you play that and it's your thing, you may do so by all means. I just don't find any of them unique.

I added nipples, Elezen's fixed:

Just because you lack the eye to actually discern detail, or rather hold the bias to not see what would be obvious, does not mean it isn't there. The same old wishy-washy claim of "they all look the same" is the most base form of bashing, something you were so tired of coming from others. Just between Au Ra and Miqote there is a distinct difference between body shape and posture. Between their own kind there's a variety of options to differentiate them. Certainly more varied than the other races.

This is really the root of the problem, and the reason a lot of people are gonna disagree with your thread. "Elves" don't exist in this game. The Elezen obviously share some similar characteristics that we associate with traditional elves, but they are not, and have never been intended to occupy that particular niche. They are Elezen, and that includes the exaggerated necks, the spindly arms and yes, the head:body ratio that they currently have.

What you and several other people are doing is you're trying to mold a unique race into a preconceived picture of what you think they look should like, but its no less wrong than if I was to argue that Roegadyn should be bright green and have fangs like Orcs just because they both happen to be large.

No, I'm pretty sure I see the same characters everywhere in terms of cats and au ra. They may not be 100% the same but they do look almost like a carbon copy. I don't lack the eye as I see them everywhere. Oh and don't even get me started on them in the same glam. They are almost indistinguishable except hair colour.
