Why is all the new hair that get added short hair?

I like how SE creates characters with amazing hairstyles desired by most of the playerbase, then actively ignores that playerbases wishes for that style or for longer or better designed short hairstyles & releases sub-par short hairstyles only that are meme'd & leave viera & hrothgar out.

I remember when everyone asked for Hilda's ponytail, the response was "if enough people ask for it/ show interest" and people constantly ask for it, but are ignored.

What i have always felt was a disservice, was how they knowingly introduce characters that have fantastic hair options the player base disparately want. Only to keep coming up with the same tired excuse of clipping/ limitations. Please let me decide what level of clipping is to much for my character. If we could get armor sets themed after half theses characters concepts (more adult/ torso exposing/ form fitted armor), much of the clipping issues would be solved.

They don’t know how to make stuff that doesn’t clip and look horrible with 90% of the gear.

Getting their armor wouldn't make clipping any better. The characters are designed with limited motion in mind. These characters are set in not only with what they're wearing, but what movements they have. So simply getting clothes will solve nothing. Also, you don't get to decide anything about how much clipping your character deals with. SE likely wishes to keep clipping to a minimum, despite some of those awful dresses they've implemented. Point being, they choose what we get and how much clipping they want and where they are willing to accept it. Deal with it.

I guess you missed the last sentence there. I said themed armor. Not a 1 for 1 exact copy of any existing gear used for npc/ bosses, but designs that closely follow established character theme/ silhouette.

Of course these specific characters are created with specific gear, with their specific intended use foremost in thought to their overall design.

Your overall argument is predicated on your mistaken interpretation of my comment, and then you end said argument with... "Deal with it"?

As a 1.0 player, i have dealt with it, far longer than you may ever know. What i was asking for is not something i solely want, nor is it a demand of a minority of the player base.

You do realize we have had eikon/ primal gear already introduced in the game correct? Sadly the rest of such themed sets were never made for the rest of the cast, however weapons are still being used even as of the latest patch. Is it so wrong to consider future designs for worn gear could follow similar lines?

Given your maligned comment, I suppose so. Though i do find it humorous a simple opinion could illicit such vitriol...

O tempora, o mores...

I love this idea... Until I picture my character running and seeing the solid plank of wood that is my character's hair swing violently from side to side.

First off, I played in 1.0 too, so nice try with your "I've dealt with it far longer than you may ever know" nonsense. Also, your argument about themed gear makes no sense considering it has absolutely nothing to do with the hair. It's like you read part of my response and selectively answered it without actually paying attention. Good job. "Given your maligned comment" man, you take this way too seriously. It's a game. It's not that deep man. It's not. You may want to consider stepping away if you're taking it this seriously. It's bad for ones health.
