Headgear won't show on Viera and Hrothgar save a few exceptions

Q: Will the plump miqo'te in the trailer be playable? Will we be seeing plump versions of other races?

A: *laughs* There are many different body types in the world, and before, we couldn't represent all of them due to cost. But now, we're starting to look into different body types for races, starting with the plump miqo'te. You'll be seeing them in the MSQ, so please give us your honest feedback.

Does this mean that we might be getting more customization options in 6.0?

Poor dev team working on Sundays not spending quality time with their family, working fanfests to have to read posts like this.

And here I thought they wouldn't be releasing new races after Viera and Hrothgar because it's too stressful to make all the existing headgear for a new race.

Why don't they just give them the same treatment as Au Ra, where everything clips as if they didn't even have any horns or tails? It's the players decision if they can live with the clipping or not.
I mean I've seen Au Ra with the Carbuncle Jacket where the Carbuncle on the shoulder is INSIDE the horn, depending on the face they picked.
If that's ok for the devs then why don't just let Viera ears stick through the helmets like Miqo'te and Au Ra tails also stick through everything? Ever seen the Faerie Tale Princess Dress on them?

It's a weird choice, maybe makes sense for Hrothgar if some of the heads truly are beastly looking, but the Viera look like they have normal heads, just with big ears on top.



They've even got a bit of fluff around the base of the ears, which should help cover up that no holes have actually been made in your helmet and the ears are just clipping through.

As someone who has been playing a miqo for a majority of my time in game I'm fine with it. I hardly ever wear hats because the ear slots look funny and a few hair styles i like look bad with head gear a majority of the time anyway.

They can't be serious. All that talk about how hard it was to make the race, and it's literally nothing but a hyur with bunny ears that can't wear headgear.

Wow. What work? What part of this race was more taxing than any other when it required less?

They didn't give us digitigrade feet. Just slapped ears on the stock body and called it a day. Saw the work headgear would require and decided screw it.

This is ridiculous. Can't even wear glasses? Why the hell not? Miqote wear them while they float in midair. What's the problem here?

[Atticon]

It doesn't help that we now have multiple interviews about this contradicting eachother. One say no full helmets, other says only full helmets. One says hats with clipping, other says no hats at all.

[Nihility]

everything he's said at the fanfests and the interviews just say that they're modifying every headpiece to work for viera and hrothgar and it just won't be ready at launch.
Can see that part even if you just google translate it

friggain forums have transformed into hyperbole land.
