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

[SturmChurro]

The issue is that the races were rushed out to begin with.
This is a signal the SE was ill prepared and put out an unfinished product, functional in all sense of the game, save for player's ability to customize them which is deemed a low priority.

Well, to SE this is a finished product. That's why "finishing" them is low priority.. They are already finished! If and when they add extra hairs that is just a bonus.

Pretty much what I've been saying.

They made a design choice to focus on making these heads this way, the only "undone" element planned for them was gonna be the head gear (which they were gonna work on post release before the team pulled a slick one on Yoshi).
The Hrothgar manes are a CC feature. The Viera are given ears that suck up like at least 50% of the area on the top of their heads that other races could use freely so they get unique hair.

But given the nature of things they know there's less choice here so they're making more stuff at some point for em. I don't really expect them to release just 1 or 2 styles when they add more but ehh, people gonna do what they do until then and Imma eat popped corn.

Follow up, so I stumbled across this picture again.

I thought that at first to, but it could easily just be a case of someone making a mistake and going back to fix it.

The first one was head 3 with head 1's mane. IF it actually fit right I'd think sure, they played with the idea. But it doesn't, the clipping is stupid bad.
So I think it was simply a mistake they went back and fixed.

I mean, in the recent LL where they talk about Job changes when they got to Sam they used a Female Highlander in Sam gear with a Sam Sword standing in the GNB pose for some reason ... prob cause who ever made that title card flipped through some poses and thought that one looked nice. These mix ups happen, not much reason to pick them apart.
