Hey Viera and Hrothgar players!

[SturmChurro]

I'm more concerned with how SE handled both viera and hrothgar. The animations were actually kind of stiff, in relation to class animations. Their smile, at least with the face options I used was barely that. You could actually barely tell my girl was smiling in a lot of cutscenes; lack of expression. Kind of like they had a bunch of botox or something in their face is how I would describe it. However besides all of that, if they had come out like a proper race I would still probably be playing my girl right now. A lot disappointed.

Hrothgar I can't comment, but the fact they have to use a fantasia to change anything semi-significant on their character is inexcusable, especially when they proclaim that new faces will be added for them (in response to hair) - which translates to give us more money if you want to use these on the race you play.

I like my hair but wish for more options/diversity since a lot other bunnies use it too
I don't mind not having all the shared hair atm, since for the longest time I played Au ra and used a race gated hair style, so I'm nor particularly attached to shared styles

As for hats/helmets, I only ever used a beach hat for screenshots or chilling at the beach and rarely used helmets at all so that's no big deal for me

^ This is probably my single biggest complaint with Hrothgar, it just feels sleezy despite having the same amount of options the fact hairstyles are fantasia only so any new ones can only be tried out in CC unless you have to acquire in game is just urgh.

Despite the negative i find Hrothgar well done even though they are not complete (Until all head gear is made available both half races are unfinished in my eyes), they are expressive enough and add a good spice of uniqueness in characters.

I've gotten over the lack of hair options in Hrothgar. I rarely changed hair anyway, when I was Roe and Lala.

The thing I'm a bit more concerned with, as Hrothgar, is that our hair options is tied to face type, so if I wanted to cycle between my two hair choices, I'd need to Fantasia that, and that's not cool. Not that I'd ever change it personally, but it feels like an extra cost on an already limited deal.

It’s a little concerning that Viera don’t have access to a lot more hairstyles and hats, but I personally don’t mind. As an Au Ra I stuck to one hairstyle usually and wore flowers/circlets 99% of the time, so it’s no big change now that I’m a Viera.

I’m hopeful that changes will come in the future though, so for now I’m patiently waiting

Overall I'm happy with Hrothgar, I just wish they would work on bringing all the existing hairstyles and hats overtime. They are a big and powerful company, they shouldn't be giving us limited content they should at least acknowledge that they will be working on bringing what is missing overtime.

The lack of being able to wear hats saddens me (I miss my cowboy hat), but outside of that I love how expressive Hrothgar are, and how they look good in almost anything. I'm hoping for more helms to be visible in 5.1, and perhaps a few new hair styles per face. Also, take a look at the /stagger emote for Hrothgar when you get the chance, they literally shake at the end of it like they're trying to get water off them and it's absolutely adorable.

While Viera's situation is disappointing and has some hope to be improved in the future with new racial hairs, Hrothgar are in an unacceptable state. The minimum they should do is warn people when they buy fantasias of how they will not be able to choose between the 2 hairs each face has. Why even create that limitation anyway?

Instead they have been dismissive, and it seems like it's just a "yeah, you'll get them eventually" kind of response. That irks me when we paid good money for these races, and they were heavily advertised for the expansion - not to mention no warnings about their limitations anywhere, including the mogstation. In my opinion, they should be working on these races overtime. They released an unfinished product, but supposedly claim it's finished - I'm not even talking about the missing genders either.

You'd think for hrothgar they would at least be able to adapt some hats like that one to their head.

Yeah, for sure. It was a design decision since they were a beast race, apparently, according to them. I honestly don't believe it, after seeing a picture somewhere in another thread that's buried now. I think they were just rushing to get it done, and did this rather than complete it properly, because they were out of time, and they doubled down. That's just a conspiracy of mine though. Fit faces to hair instead of hair to all of the faces to save on time.

I miss my Matoya hat. Otherwise I'm doing okay, 'cause this hairstyle I have is the one I've wanted on my roegadyn since Lightning hairstyle became a thing. But since she can't have it, Imma be a bunny.
