We also have to consider that they want to see through more comprehensive graphics updates, particularly regarding their existing assets which need to be converted to high res textures - they've yet to commit to it or confirm they're doing it but it's something they would like to do alongside improvements to the graphics system. 6.0 is likely when the spec will go up, and it would make for a big selling point for a game that has yet to peak. The last thing I'd want them to do is put aside overall improvements to the textures and graphics engine in order to rush out male Viera and female Hrothgar. I'd rather wait for a more comprehensive upgrade, if one is in the cards.
This is true. Though in regards to higher quality textures, it is incredibly common for artists to create textures that are at least double the scale of the intended asset. They save the texture (diffuse map) off in that higher quality state and then simply just compress it down to the required scale, which of course lowers the quality. However it means that it is incredibly likely that the devs have the higher quality textures already archived ready for implementation, should a graphics update appear that could support them all.
