Viera can't use the new Modern Aesthetics - Modern Legend

Now try noticing it from the front. Try examining them and immediately noticing the clipping without rotating their character. Try noticing that kind of clipping on the OF avatars, or their Lodestone page.

Well, considering I see my avatar's back all the time minus CS....I'de say I see more clipping than non clipping things ^^"

Plus, again, they made the Vieras, why add floppy ears if you can't handdle them ? I mean, they did not test the race before adding it ? oO

EDIT: they did not bother to care about the clipping issues for all the other hairstyles so why would they try now ? false excuse
And we are juste discussing hairstyles here.....

Because there was half a decades worth of demand for not only Viera specifically, but for a race that wasn't just "Hyur with animal features". Granted, Viera are still effectively just tall Hyur with bunny ears, but compared to Miqote and Aura? I'm fairly certain they gave you customizable ears specifically because of complaints about Miqote/Aura customization options being fairly lackluster. Hrothgar clearly bear the brunt of the work in regards to a truly "different" race, and as I said earlier, SE has likely spread themselves thin with releasing two races like this and are likely packaging their new options in the interest of "fairness".

It's not even a case of them doing this and creating problems they didn't expect. They did expect these problems, they knew they'd fall behind because of it and they've apologized and given their reasoning/justification/excuses regarding it.

Again, because it is no where near as noticeable as it would be with Viera. Again, please just imagine the examples you're presenting, but flat on the top of your head. Do you really want them to just rush out options for you if it's going to look like that? Do you think people are going to use hairstyles or headgear if it's clipping that badly? Most of the examples you've provided are clipping with regards to other pieces of gear (hair with body gear, for example). We're not even talking that for Viera, we're talking clipping with the character model itself. That's actually a fairly important distinction to make I think, but I'm about done playing devil's advocate here. They've said they're putting extra effort into Viera/Hrothgar to avoid such issues, complaining that you're not getting a rushed mess of a product instead of something slightly more polished because "they didn't care about clipping before" is bizarre to me. They clear do with regards to Viera, and I do not understand why that is an issue...
