    I mean....honestly, did people really expect the hood would hide the ears? they're a part of their body, not some accessory they can put on or take off and cutting holes so the ears could comfortably poke out seems the most "realistic" approach. I'm kinda surprised they can wear the hood at all tho.

    It's more the strange inconsistency in how SE treats the ears that's the problem here.

    Like the werewolf ears. When a Viera wears the Werewolf ears you get this.

    It works even though you have to imagine that they stuffed their 2 foot long knife ears into something much smaller.
    This is an item that, regardless of races, covers the character's ears.

    You also have the werewolf body (and 2 other tops in the game IIRC) that have a tail which replaces the tail of any race that wears it so they're ok with replacing parts with glam sometimes.


    So you'd think that a hood with large ear socks would do the same, right? Treat them like anyone else and hide their ears ... nope, you get them clipping right through in a horrible way. Sooo ... they're treated like Horns in this case?

    Ok, so if it's cool to allow this abomination why not allow them to clip through job hats?

    It's all very confusing when you think about it and it makes me wonder why they even have the hood show for Viera.

    You perfectly expressed exactly how I feel about this.

    Lore purists telling Square Enix they have to keep the original lore intact of content reimagined in later games don't get the point of the FF series. Reimagining stories, places, magic, races, and characters is part of the charm of Final Fantasy.
