    I agree that elezen are pretty badly crafted in terms of proportions. What made me a little miffed is that they made Viera instead of fixing elezen so they could be the viera of this game.

    I suppose it is one of those they were never going to do. There will be a group of people who like the proportions as they are. If they were to change it, they could lead to a situation where a thread like this exists to turn the Elezen back to how they were. Kinda like how there are ones with people who want the original Gunbreaker sounds restored.

    The number of people complaining would be very small, though - and the most popular MMO in existence (World of Warcraft) did the same thing to every single playable race after recognising that the character models were outdated. It also managed to do so in a way that kept much of the original look but improved on things where needed.

    I think the Elf models look fine, the weird proportions to me make them look unique to this game. Plus from what Ive seen they are still popular despite this, and outside of the handful of people here in this thread Ive never seen anybody really want the proportions changed.
    Id say more then 'updating' the proportions, they need to Update Creation Options. Heck every race could use more options: Faces mostly, facial hair and scars to.

    I think Elezen are the weird looking elves of the game (I think they look like giraffes) and viera are the 'night elves' of the game (Who look WAY better than night elves)

    Elezen look stupid.

    I 100% support male bunnies. I would never play one myself, but why shouldn't people be afforded that option?
